Every Tuesday we’ll feature a different coach’s workout you can complete in 60 mins (or less!).
This week’s run workout comes from USAT Level 2 coach Andrew Dollar of Nashville-based FTP Coaching (Ftpcoaching.com). “This is a pacing workout designed for athletes training for an off-season half marathon,” Dollar says. “It can also be scaled down for 10K racing too. “
