15Km Fartlek - 1st Set Run by Central Athletics Group - Program by Coach Peter Kirui

Central Athletics Group runs a Fartlek training session in the Chelimo Area of Kericho Estate, and the program is courtesy of Coach Peter Kirui. "Fartlek" is a Swedish term that translates to "speed play." In the context of running, it refers to a type of training that blends continuous training with interval training. Here's a breakdown: What it is: Fartlek training involves varying your running pace throughout a run. This means alternating between periods of fast running (sprints or increased pace) and slower running (jogging or recovery pace). Unlike structured interval training, fartlek is often less rigid. You can vary the duration and intensity of the fast and slow segments based on how you feel. It's about "playing" with your speed. Benefits: Improves both speed and endurance. Enhances cardiovascular fitness. Adds variety to your running routine, making it more engaging. Can be adapted to various fitness levels. It also can improve mental strength. How it works: You can incorporate fartlek into your runs in various ways. For example: Running fast to a landmark (e.g., a tree or lamppost) and then jogging until you recover. Alternating between periods of sprinting and jogging for set durations. Simply changing paces based on how you feel. It can be done on roads, trails, or even a treadmill. In essence, fartlek running is a flexible and effective way to boost your running performance. #athleticskenya #fartlek #runningtraining #running #runningworkout #runningmotivation
