This Week’s WODs

*Cycle R/Week 8 of 12*

Short Interval (Mon 5:30pm):   “Wanderer”

3 x (600m, 60 sec rest, 200m, 20 sec rest, 500m, 50 sec rest, 300m, 30 sec rest, 400m)

5:00 rest between sets

Methodology:           Total Distance:       6000m       Scoring:    Score each of the three rounds separately

WOD Notes–Be patient. Allow the workout volume to settle into your legs. The core of this workout is your last 1000m. Focus on a consistent pace for all intervals!

WOD Math–Pick a pace that is 2-3 sec/100m slower than your 1-mile PR pace. As example, an athlete with a 1-mile PR time of 8:00 (or 30sec/100m) would have a target pace of 32-33sec/100m.
