Speed Work

Speed work is a training method used by runners to improve their pace and overall performance. It involves running specific portions at faster than usual speeds, often in short or controlled intervals, with rest periods in between. The goal is to increase your running efficiency, build strength, and boost your ability to maintain a quicker pace over longer distances. Think of it as practice for your legs to handle faster speeds comfortably and with less effort over time, leading to better race times and endurance.
