We are now into the heart of our Central Oregon summer and there's no finer time to be a runner in Central Oregon. I love this time of year and it's perfect for injecting a little intensity into our running. Rather than just heading out for your same daily run try something a bit different this month by putting some short 1min pick ups in your run, get with some running buddies and challenge them to do a speed workout, or better yet, come out on Tuesday night to my Tuesday Performance Group for a good interval workout. Putting some hard effort into a run will make it feel more accomplishing and rewarding and there's no easier time to do that than July in Central Oregon.
