be higher but the effect will be similar due to the shorter recovery period.You could also add a session of 200m or 400m off quite long recoveries - this teaches your body to adapt to and to run at a faster pace. This isn't really a "hard" session
Hi I'm starting a schedule to train for a marathon and one of the days tells me to do speed work for example 8 x 400m, 3 x 1600m. I have no idea what this means can anyone explain as simply as possible (i have fuzzy felt in my brain
conversation, you can only just speak odd words etc. Then recover til you can hole a conversation and repeat! for 400m intervals I probably wouldn't be chatting - maybe the odd gasp, especially just towards the end.Once you've done one session you'll be able
in the winter (sometimes we do a 10 in rep and than minute reps after that). Also do a shorter reps session which is frequently focussed on distance (10 by 400m etc). Good session for a 3000? Perhaps 12 reps of 75 seconds on; 45 seconds off. What sorts
hour.JJ You could the different type of speedwork for one session each week.JJ JJ does 400m or 70-80secs mean you have to do 400m in 70-80secs or does it mean do 70-80secs max?Anyway have just been to the gym and done m first speed session
training in late summer, such as 8 x 200m, 1200m time trials, 8-12 x 400m off a minute etc.Surely the longer reps should be more beneficial? wow are those really your times?impressive! there are some key sessions which have been devised.check out

expected time for the 5K?I do 2 types of intervals Long Intervals - 6*1k @ just above 5K pace with 2min/400m recoveries..And Short Intervals - 12*400m @ 5k pace+15s with 90s/300m recovery. Also have a 1k/5min recovery between the 6th & 7th rep.With each
as you can run at greater intensities.If you have a stop watch that beeps at the end of the time selected then that will obviously help.I've always done it as part of a track session on club night so had somebody blowing a whistle. Also 16 x 400m
look forward to running in London. http://g.co/maps/4khjm The Outer Circle of Regent's Park is 2.75 miles, I sometimes use it for interval sessions as those tend to be around 5 - 6 miles in total and doing that much on a 400m track is soul
