Including a range of running intensity into your training is a great way to build your fitness by boosting your top end speed and also developing your ability to hold a sustained intensity within a single workout. This workout is great for athletes running a 10km or a half marathon, whether as a stand alone event or as part of an Olympic distance triathlon or an Ironman 70.3.

Tempo is an intensity that means different things to different athletes and coaches. For me, I define Tempo as an effort comfortably below the Threshold pace. It is the sort of intensity that if you had to you could maintain for a duration longer than a half marathon. It is higher than the aerobic running pace, sort of in the mid-zone between the two levels. Spending more than 15-20 minutes at this intensity, helps the body practice clearing the small amount of lactic acid generated at this pace, without needing to slow down to do so. This is a perfect session for runners and triathletes running events up to full marathons and further.

Exposing your body to your Threshold running pace will develop efficiencies whilst running at this intensity. This session is a great workout to start that exposure, early in the season or as a taper session in the final week prior to an event.

At the end of the day when you are racing, speed is what counts. The faster you run, well….the faster you run. To devlop speed you need to practise running fast (and have a range of other physiological components). This session is designed to develop your pure speed and is great for 5km runners and sprint distance triathletes.
