Interval Training & Walking Lanes


Adult Enrichment / Fitness -
Summer 2025

Interval training or speed workouts on the track and turf at Jim Gustafson Field: for beginning runners, individuals training for a road race, and former track athletes. Intervals will be from 10 seconds to 2 minutes in length. All abilities are welcome with a focus on personal improvement in running speed. Workouts will be designed with the needs of masters runners in mind. Injury prevention will be paramount.

Two outside lanes will be available for walkers, providing a great opportunity for those who prefer a lower-impact workout while still enjoying the energy of the group setting. Whether you're building endurance, easing back into activity, or simply looking for a way to stay active, walking the track is a fantastic option.

NOTE: You do not need to stay the full 2 hours. Show up anytime between 6:30am and 8:00am.

Instructor

Terry J. Gjersvik


I was a 400 and 800 meter runner on the ALHS Tigers track team and also ran track in college. I have been a recreational runner all of my life running many 10K’s, 5K’s and Grandma’s Marathon (one marathon was enough). I began running track again in 2015 and am currently training for the 2021 Master’s Track and Field outdoor season with five summer track meets held in Minneapolis. I plan to run the 100, 200, 400 and 800 meters in the Men’s 60-64 age group. The new Albert Lea track is a modern “state of the art” smooth and soft running surface and I hope c o m m u n i t y members will join me this summer at Jim Gustafson field.
