Answer
The activity described involves alternating between high-intensity sprints (100 m) and periods of lower intensity walking for recovery (100 m). This pattern aligns closely with 'Anaerobic interval' training, as it involves short bursts of intense effort followed by rest or lower intensity exercise. Therefore, the correct answer is D. Anaerobic interval.
