Intervalesque training

Saturday between spits of rain we completed our workout of six minutes walking and four minutes of BRISK running, three times. It appears we covered about 3.5 miles which shows how very brisk the run sections were (distance includes a cool down walk)- good job! Doing shorter, manageable sections at a heart rate that is higher than you would be able to sustain for anything longer makes you faster and stronger very quickly. Even one session a week will show results.

Please don't get discouraged if you are experiencing absences due to family schedules, or setbacks due to aches and pains. Remember progress is not a steady line upward and you each have made a big deposit in your fitness piggy banks. It won't go away overnight.

Hope everyone had a nice weekend and we'll see you all Wednesday!
