hill sprints
Uphill running bursts
Hill sprints are a training exercise in which you run up a steep incline at maximum effort, walk or jog back down, and repeat.
The combination of speed and resistance builds explosive power and cardiovascular capacity more efficiently than flat-ground running: I added hill sprints to my routine and my race times dropped.
