This is a Swedish word for ‘speed play’. They are like intervals, but have no real structure to them. Simply pick a landmark ahead of you and run faster until you get to that landmark. Then go back to a slow, easy pace to let your body recover. When you have recovered, pick out another landmark and run fast to it. You should be running fast anywhere from 30 seconds to 3 minutes.
Benefits: Builds strength, speed, endurance, increases aerobic capacity; develop good, more efficient form; kick at the finish.
