Tabata Run vs. Continous Run
Run as far as you can in twenty seconds then come to a complete stop and rest for ten seconds. Repeat this cycle for a total of 8 times going only in one direction. Mark your ending point and rest for two minutes.

At the end of your rest, run continously from your end point back towards your starting point. For this run back, you only get 4 minutes, the same time as the tabata protocol.

You are encouraged to run as hard and as far as you can during both trials. Be as precise as you can for both.

Post whether you covered the same distance or not as well as your thoughts, to comments.

2. Well, going into this I thought doing the tabata would get me further. Man, was I wrong! The first two sprints went good, but then trying to get going on the rest, my legs just didn't want to move and catching my breath on the ten seconds didn't work out well. I gassed early. On the continuous run, it took my three mintues to get back to the start point.
   My thoughts; starting and stopping is harder because you go from keeping a high pace to stopping, and then trying to get back up to the fast pace with a short break, which is rough.
   OR, I just need to do more cardio...
