Increase the benefits of running ...
with fartleks Swedish for “speed play,” fartleks are meant to be fun (remember, it’s speed play). To do them, simply vary your pace based on guidelines that you make up. For example, after a warm-up, pick a tree in the distance and run fast (not all out) until you get there. Jog again until you pick out something else—yellow house or traffic light—and run fast to it. Repeat for 5 to 10 minutes, then run normally for 5 to 10 minutes and cool down. Work up to 20 to 30 minutes or longer once a week.
It really is fun, especially in a group. It is a hell of a workout. You will feel it even after a short while. Added bonus, this type of workout is the best of the best for losing weight.
