Cut it short to 5x400m due to the heat, by the end my heart spiked up to over 200bpm, Felt strong during those 5 fast 400s but the heat definitely takes its toll. Ran them all on 5 minute mile pace which is my goal time

4 miles, 1 in the rain. But beat the storm!

Day 13

I typically run outside, but it has been raining cats and dogs. Lucky to have a treadmill at the gym, so I don’t know about you, but it always feels funny to run on a treadmill!! Either way, felt good to move my legs.

I usually do 6 miles on these days but I was very sore so took it easy and did 4. Still felt pretty good my pace was 8:58. Great job everyone!!!

Day 14

Felt really sore but got it done!!! My 200 meter times were 38,39,41,40. Great job everyone!!!

2 mile warm up, 2 mile temp at 7 flat & 200M at 35. Felt great !

Was a struggle but got it done! Excited for tomorrow.

Day 15

Yesterday was my rest day and I did yesterdays workout today due to traveling for a vacation. Great job everyone!

Keep on forgetting to log the Friday runs as its the rest day

Aidan

Day 16

Tough workout! Hit all 300 sub 5 minute mile average. Proud

Hardest running workout I’ve done in years

Daniel Anguiano

Amazing, would’ve been great on a track but I’m on Vaca. Definitely feel an improvement

Alex

Day 17

Had to tack this on to Monday instead of Sunday due to moving craziness, but got it done!

Started a little later and it warmed up quick. Still crushed the 9 miles though

Kenneth

Day 18

7 miles at recovery pace and 8 strides! Felt great. Although it’s getting really hot out here in texas! 100plus everyday

Karter

Got in 3 miles+4x100m strides today. These runs are actually starting to feel.. enjoyable?

Day 19

Riley Barrett

This was really hard, my average was below 2:45 but had to take a longer break halfway through due to heat. Easily the hardest workout we’ve had so far imo

Riley

6x800 in the 4:16-4:23 range per run. 5th run was fastest, oddly enough. I need to run these faster in order to hit my target mile, but not sure I can do it!

Day 20

10k at recovery pace and hit a 400 lb deadlift

Day 21

Still doing the Cross country camp today we did a 1 mile warmup and then we did a workout in the weight room. I’ll be back to the regular runs on Saturday. Great job everyone!!!

Day 22

Day 23

My goal of 600m was  3:15 . My average time was 4 minutes. It was easy for first couple 600m. It definitely got harder

Was aiming for in the lower 2 minute section. The first one I hit 2:12 and then after that they were all in the 2:25s. Wasn’t what I was hoping for but at least I was consistent. I’m not expecting a pr I just don’t feel faster than when I hit a pr in track but at least I’m putting more work in than my cross country competition. Keep going everyone!!!

Forgot to post this on time but definitely able to see a difference in my speed and my endurance! I’m actually really starting to enjoy the sprints! Great work everyone!

Day 24

Completed 2 days ago but Wi-Fi is spotty in Japan!

Great early morning workout! Forgot to log yesterday

Oops forgot to post yesterday! Glad the long runs are getting shorter, can’t wait to see where I’m at on the last day of the challenge!

Andrew

Day 25

Legs feeling fresh…pushed the program out 1 day due to work and will test on Saturday morning.

Ross

Day 26

Amazing intervals, really shows me how fast I got, didn’t even really kill me like I thought it would

All 6 reps were around 38 seconds.  Legs are freshening up and I’m looking forward to testing on Saturday.

Day 27

Needed this rest day. We’re almost their everyone keep going!!!

It was good to rest today!! I am so excited for Friday!!

Day 28

Felt good tired at the beginning but my legs loosened up by the end. Nice 2 mile evening jog and my 100m times were 27.6,19.4,13.4. The work is finished! Let’s get some pr’s!!!

The work has been done.  Looking forward to seeing where I’m at tomorrow!

Day 29

I am freaking out at the results. Even facing serious heat, and humidity and jet lag, I managed a 7:38 mile! That was way over my goal and a 9.6% improvement from my OG a month ago! Insane! Thank you so much!

I'm 4 days late but even without strictly following the program was able to go from 7:28 to 7:02 which edged out my lifetime PR of 7:05. Thanks Nick!

Ended up waiting until July 2nd to run due to air quality in my area but I got a 5:03 which was a massive 49 second drop from my benchmark, thanks for the workouts and motivation Nick!

Day 30! ⚡️

Congratulations to everyone and so happy I did this challenge!!!

Props to everyone and congrats to the winners! So excited for everyone!
