Yes, speedwork. Hats off, hands down this is tough stuff speedwork. Essential to getting faster but tough stuff. Coach Will (former elite ironman) has gave me a new understanding to speedwork. I show up weekly on Wednesdays. Sometimes I cry even lol. Not kidding it hurts running fast lol. 800s repeats, mile repeats, 600s, the list goes on and on. I sware sometimes when I am on that track I picture myself running straight off that track and into my car and straight home. For all you fast runners being speedy does not come easy. You guys are rock stars.
I have learned that I can have the same bonding moment on 1 mile repeats at maximum heart threshold in 3 miles that I would have on mile 20 of a marathon with someone. Isn't that a odd thing. Truly amazing hahah. Anyways. Learned alot in the last 2 months. Certainly have tons more to learn. But speedwork yes you are definitely something not to take lightly. And my previous definition of speedwork prior to coaching well lets just say I HAD NO CLUE. Speedwork do it. Harder than running 20 miles ummm I am saying yes having now participated in both
