MOUNTAIN ENDURANCE

“March on. Do not tarry. To go forward is to move toward perfection. March on, and fear not the thorns, or the sharp stones on life's path.”—Khalil Gibran

Time to test yourself on the trails. Look for the hills, then run in that direction.

Warmup

  • jog slow for 10 minutes
  • Burpees

Main Set

  • Trail run for 1-4 hours

Cool Down

  • jog slow, Stretch

Beginner Version: Try and reach the 1 hour mark. It’s ok to walk. Just run when you can. But do not stop until your hour is up.

Advanced Version: When out on the trails, grab a log or a rock for a few of your big climbs. Try and go for at least 3 hours there. Pack some water and food.
