Intervals, Schmintervals...

We groan when it comes to interval training. It just sucks. But Coach Poz is adament that it improves our running times and well, she's right, and a new study seems to confirm it. The lead researcher states,

... interval training is not just for elite athletes. Studies have shown that the elderly, and even people with coronary artery disease, can benefit from a properly supervised interval training program.

We're certainly not elite athletes, could be considered by some as elderly, and if people with CAD can do it then, hell, I guess we've run out of excuses.

(btw - the weather is perfect for running today - anne arbor and i had a great run this morning. yeehaw.)
