Peter Elliott liked to run this session in the week before a major event. He would use it as a sharpening session. Peter had a 1,500m PB of 3:32.69, 1 mile of 3:49.20 and 800m of 1:42.97. He won silver in the 1,500m at the 1988 Seoul Olympics and gold at the 1990 Auckland Commonwealth Games in the 1,500m. This session is great for runners up to 5km, as well as triathletes.
