  • Simplifying training to key focuses helps establish clarity and sustainable progress.
ADVICE

Five Essential Training Intensities

  • Focus on recovery pace, base pace, threshold/long intervals, short intervals, and race intensity first.
ADVICE

Recovery Pace Focus

  • Use recovery pace runs to promote freshness for your next hard workout.
