FIRST TRACK WORKOUT | 12 DAYS OF VLOGMAS (Day 8) - Emma Abrahamson

Intro

This is a quick summary of “FIRST TRACK WORKOUT | 12 DAYS OF VLOGMAS (Day 8)” from Emma Abrahamson. It’s a fun watch — we’re breaking it down so you can try the ideas today. Be sure to check out the full video for all the details.

Key Points

  • Mindset matters: Treat each run as a non‑negotiable part of your day, even when you’re sore, tired, or busy. 
  • Goal‑driven motivation: Keep your long‑term racing goals in mind; missing a daily run can hurt future progress.
  • Habit over motivation: Once running becomes a habit, the “first‑run barrier” fades, making it easier to lace up every morning.
  • No excuses: Injury, illness, or emergencies aren’t reasons to skip. Prioritize your time to meet your goals.
  • Simple daily routine: Warm‑up, run, and cool‑down – the video shows Emma doing a track workout (specific intervals not disclosed) and emphasizes staying consistent.

Workout Example (as shown in the video)

  • Warm‑up: Light jog and dynamic stretches on the track (about 5‑10 minutes).
  • Main set: A track workout (exact intervals and paces not detailed in the video). Use this structure as a template:
    • 4‑6 repeats of a short distance (e.g., 400 m) at a comfortably hard pace.
    • Recover with light jogging or walking for 60‑90 seconds between repeats.
  • Cool‑down: Easy jog and stretch.

Feel free to adjust the number of repeats, distance, and recovery time to match your current fitness level. You can log and customize the paces in the Pacing app.

Closing Note

Give the workout a try, tweak the intervals to suit your own paces, and keep building that daily running habit. You’ve got this – hit the track today and make it count! 🚀
