Running at your VO2 Max will build your top end speed. This is a tough session and won’t always be able to be completed at the correct pace and may require a few attempts for you to achieve your goal. This is a great session for all runners and triathletes especially those running events between 5km & half marathon.

Wednesday Windtrainer Workout: Nate Wilson’s Threshold Climbing Work #3

When riding long climbs, maintaining threshold intensity with out big fluctuations is the way to go. The effort should be the maximum that you can sustain without dropping power from one effort to the next.
