Sprints!

While training for this marathon, I want to do more tempo runs and fartleks in order to spice up the workouts and to exercise different muscles. This morning, Joe and I did about a quarter mile warm up jog, then did 8 sprints with jogging in between. Joe is a pretty good sprinter - he could start about 10 feet behind me and still beat me. Oh well, I could crush him in endurance. While Joe stretched, I did an extra 5 minute hill workout. We jogged the quarter mile back home as the cool down and called it a day!
