This morning we headed up the mountain for some L3 ski walking intervals.

The work road has a good grade and is long enough for everyone to get 5-7x 6 minute intervals.

After each 6 minute interval we had a 3 minute recovery.

The goal was for the faster ski walkers to jog down below the slower ones and then pass through on each interval. It worked perfectly and everyone got good exposure to the top dogs.

The twins are all smiles after the workout. This is one of our favorite workouts because it is easy to maintain a solid L3. Everyone is working hard, but is controlled. It is a great way to help build a solid aerobic base.
