.e. rest periods) between the fast running repetitions - although many people refer to the session itself as an `interval` session. `Intervals` tend to be used to describe sessions of 300/400m up to 800m.Daniels effectively defines repeats as short
+ (outside of course)Sun- weights/SprintsBasically, I am looking for ideas for my tempo runs, to add some variety ya knowI do - 1mile repeaters (x6) @10k pace (Killer tempo run) - pyramid400m- 800m - 1200m -1600m- 1200m- 800m - 400 @ 5k pace
. They run 500m at 1500m pace, 15secs rest then 300m at 800m pace. 2mins rest then repeat.Probally the BEST VOmax session out there which is great for 800m-5K runners is 5/6 X 1K with 1min rest at 5K pace. i am 14 years oldi train 5 times a week and do 2
as "Intervals: 8x800m" or something similar.We can take 8x800m as an example. What that means is that the runner runs 800 metres fast followed by a slower recovery run - that fast-slow pair counting as one "rep" or repetition - then repeats that process seven
that a coach who knows you could give much better advise. Going forward, it's wise to vary sessions at 10km, 5km, 3km, mile and even 800m pace, as each will benefit you in a slightly different way.Hope that's of some help.JEJ So am I not doing enough
x 800m x 2) and then complete a session which is a cross between a speed session and a tempo run, (i.e. run 2 miles at race pace with 5-6 minute recoveries). I do this in 4-5 intervals. It really takes it out of you and you need an easy run the next
have mentioned sound good. I'm still not back to 100% fitness from injury, so am currently only doing 1 speedwork session a week, but hope to increase this to 2 per week by August.Currently doing reps e.g. 4x1k or 5 x 800m, once a week, + 4 steady runs
find something that works for you.8x 800m with 2 minutes recovery. The point of the high number of reps and short recovery is that you run at about 5K pace and try and keep the reps as even as possible.6x 800m with 3 minutes recovery. Different focus
into one of your road runs. By long I mean 800m up to 1k at 5k/10k pace. Run the same distance slowly in between each interval to recover. Start with 3 x 800m intervals at 10k pace and speed up/increase distance from there if it's too easy or as soon as you
