Yesterday’s Intense-tionally short run

Yesterday I intentionally ran only 2 miles for the purpose of focusing on the intensity of the run rather than distance. I also did something that for some reason I didn’t do before. I sprinted up hill. The run basically was mostly sprinting and walking. I didn’t do so bad going up hill either. I made it 3/4 the way up a hill that wasn’t really that steep. I was satisfied. When I got back to the house, I took Jobe for some running around the block. Jobe is my Doberman Pincer who loves to run. Talk about a workout. This morning my ankles are still adjusting to it.

Recently, I read an article that pointed out about concentrating on intensity will burn more calories than just going out for a run.

Running, Without it, Why Bother -- This saying says it all for me. To prove a point, my wife never imagined running at all until recently. She adds running to her walking and loves it!
