Fartlek - A Finnish word for Speed Play - which means going out for a run making it up as you go, mixing fast with slow, walk with run, hills with at.
Interval Sessions - These help to improve your tness and increase your pace. Run them at a pace which means you can complete the session. For one minute efforts recover for one minute
with a walk. Equate the recovery time to the effort time on the other sessions.
