Wills Hills’ work-outs begin at the YWCA where the group meets and then jogs to various locations along the Buffalo Bayou for a warm-up.  The warm-up involves various running drills for about five to seven minutes. The work-outs generally consist of a course that's designed to help runners develop speed, endurance, and strength.  Our work-outs vary each day and change each week,  you can find our "schedule" by clicking on the button above.  Our training routine usually involes:

  • Non-track speed work  
  • Tempo (pace runs) around Buffalo Bayou.
  • Hill work usually once or twice a week. 
  • Mile Repeats, Relay Races, 
  • Personalized Training 

         We incorporate:

                              *)Fartleks

                              *)Distance repeats                                       

                              *)Big and Small Hills

                              *)Time trials and more.

The work-outs are designed to help each runner, regardless of fitness, have fun, be challenged, and quickly develop cardiovascular fitness. After completing the running portion of our work-out we do five to eight minutes of plyometrics and strength training.  We jog back to the YWCA for about 10-15 minutes of stretching and calisthenics.
