I know among my friends and family HIIT is not commonly discussed, and no it’s not because I hang out with fat and lazy people, or that my family is not obsessed with workouts like I am, rather HIIT is somewhat new to fitness, and most of my friends and family are of the older set, so we aren’t as “with it” if you will.
Runner’s world published a great article on incorporating HIIT and a running routine, with the concept of running faster when incorporating HIIT into your daily workouts.
While HIIT definitions vary, repeats are generally 10 to 60 seconds long, run nearly full out, and are followed by a rest period lasting one to four times the length of the effort (so you’re recovered to do the next repeat at the same speed and with good form). Researchers have found the low volume, high intensity approach of HIIT training can boost your speed and fitness. -Runner’s World
