1. Burn Calories.
Running fast burns a lot more calories than slow. You can burn up to 200 calories in just 2.5 minutes of intense sprinting, as opposed to burning only about 100 calories per relaxed/10-minute mile of running. Your exact calories burned also depend on your weight and pace, but in general, the faster you run, the more calories you burn. This makes speed workouts a great way to lose weight.
2. Boost Metabolism.
Even after you stop running, speed workouts boost your metabolism, so your body will continue to burn more calories while at rest and doing daily activities. After a hard speed workout, your body burns fat instead of carbs. This extra calorie burning after speed workouts is known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC).
3. Build muscle.
Can’t make it to the gym? Well, you can still build muscle without weights. Track workouts help build your fast-twitch muscle fibers, increasing your muscle mass, especially in the glutes, quads, hamstrings, and calves. As we age, type II muscle fibers decline, according to the American Council on Exercise, but high-intensity running is a great way to build and maintain type II muscle fibers and muscle mass at every age.
