In Flight Running - Hill Training Interval Training Program
2010 Session #1 Summer - Now Through Sept 29th
2010 Session #2 Fall - Oct 4th - Dec 20nd
2010 Combo Session - Now Through Dec 20nd
Running hills and cross country running is a great way
to increase power and strength in both the upper and
lower body. By mimicking the terrain our runners will
experience during their races we not only make them
stronger but mentality prepare them for the challenges
they may face on a race course. The strength gained
from hill training also prepares runners for speed work,
bounding drills and additional fine tuning needed to
increase turnover, speed and pace. Our hill training program takes place during the first half of our marathon/half marathon training season and is held on the hills of Allen Parkway
between Shepherd Drive and the edge of Downtown Houston. Purchase as a stand alone program or as a part of our
"Essentials" or "Excel" Marathon Training Package. For more information on our group or one-on-one running coaching programs check out our homepage at
