This is a great session that targets multiple energy systems with reps of a mile distance interspace with 400m reps at a higher intensity. All runners (and triathletes) can benefit from this higher intensity of training, especially atheltes with events between 5 and 10km in distance.

Spending time running at Threshold intensity will build your ability to hold a fast pace and tolerate lactic acid. This session gets easier as you work your way through it. It involves running six miles at threshold intensity and is great for improving your performance over 10km to half marathon distance and longer.

Hill reps are a great way to build fitness. They are great for developing strength within ligaments and tendons but also muscular strength. The intensity run will also help to develop your VO2 max. As such this session is great for runners and triathletes of all distances, but especially for events which are 5 to 10km long.

I needed to develop a short, intense session for an athlete due to the position they have found themselves in due to changes in COVID-19 restrictions where they live. This session targets VO2 max intensity with very limited Rest Intervals (RI). This session is great to build your top end intensity. This is a great session for all runners and triathletes with limited time to train especially those running events between 5km & half marathon.

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.

Hill Reps will help develop the strength of all muscle-fibre types, set the neurological firing pathways to recruit multiple muscle fibre and increase your hearts stroke volume. This is a great session for all runners and triathletes especially those running events between 5km & half marathon.
