{{DISPLAYTITLE:Introduction to Interval Training}}
Interval training is alternating between higher and lower intensity exercise. Interval training allows you to train at a higher intensity for a greater time than a single, continuous high intensity bout. I believe that interval training is the most important workout for any runner, from absolute beginner through to elite. Interval training provides greater results in fitness for the time/effort than any other approach, but remember to practice [[Safe Speedwork]].
