Threshold session
Threshold session for this week.
Warm-up (5 to 10 mins light running)
Dynamic drills
4 lots of strides
Then
Endurance session – 10km steady run with middle 5km at threshold pace (so 2.5km steady / 5 km threshold / 2.5km steady)
If using heart rate – steady is upper zone 1 level / threshold is up into zone 2 but capping effort at top of zone 2
If using Pace – use pace chart below for estimate of threshold pace per mile and km and steady would be around 15 seconds per km / 24 seconds per mile SLOWER than threshold pace
