Track Workout: This week we have one of our longest and most challenging workouts, running 800m repeats (2 laps) and running them in what is known as the Yasso format. For this workout you simply run the equivalent marathon time as an 800m split. Ex) Goal Marathon Time of 4:00:00 hours = 4:00 minutes per 800m split. You get 2-3 minute rest after each 800m repeat. Focus on pacing and running each lap evenly at a controlled speed. For split specific chart, click HERE
Tempo: Advanced runners this week transition into our first marathon pace workout running 7 miles continuously at marathon pace. Aim to run even or negative splits, your last split should be your fastest. Pace chart can be referenced HERE
