Short Duration Intervals
Planned in 4 phases these shorter durations will change in length over the course of each phase as we train to maintain the same pace as each distance builds. You will return to repeat these intervals at the start of each new phase in this training cycle with the goal of improving your speed over the programmed intervals.

Longer Duration Intervals
Again utilizing a periodized approach these intervals build stamina and efficiency over longer distances paired with longe rest times to allow a deeper recovery to drive a higher output for each round. This will build throughout each phase increasing performance speed and endurance at middle to long distances.
