Sprint schedule

Here's the 5 day sprint training schedule Melody wrote up for me (before I lose the paper)...

1) Sprint Intervals - Start with: 4 minutes basic run, 1 minute sprint. Repeat until unable to continue (4-5 times). As this gets easier, adjust the ratio to 3:30 running/1:30 sprinting, 3:00 running/2:00 sprinting, etc.

2) Farlek Drill - 1 minute running forward, 1 minute running backward, 1 minute side shuttle, 1 minute carioca (a sideways step alternating one foot stepping in front and and then behind the other food), 1 minute skipping, 1 minute sprinting

3) 1 Minute Sprints - repeat 10 times, taking brief breaks in between

4) Rollerblade (she said this was a low impact alternative to running and I mentioned I wanted to pick it up again)

5) Sprint Intervals - on the elliptical/bike/stairs
