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.
