I just found this tool: http://www.runnersworld.com/cda/trainingcalculator/0,7169,s6-238-277-279-0-0-0-0-0,00.html?cm_mmc=Mag_URL-_-2010_November-_-trainingcalculator-_-Training_Calculator_Tool. You enter your last race distance and finish time and under the "Training paces" tab will give you your targeted paces for a slow run, tempo run, speed work, etc. No more guessing! This will help with my interval workouts.
This looks super cool - I can't wait to try it out.
ReplyDeleteWow! This looks very interesting. I tried my first interval run yesterday on a treadmill (the one you had posted about), felt really good but kicked my butt! Lots of sweating! One question to you, how often are you supposed to do interval trainings? Once a week?
ReplyDeleteThanks Jen this is soo helpful!

Yes I would do intervals just once a week. If we do them right that should be about all we can handle!
