Today, I did a long, steady run of 22km mainly through the farmlands around here. The weather was abominable for August, but it always feels more rewarding finishing a long run in the pouring rain. On the upside, the cows were very friendly today.
I have added a training pace calculator to the site. You can enter a recent race time or (reasonable) time you’re striving for and calculate pace (ranges) for your long runs, easy runs, tempo runs, yasso’s and faster sessions. Below is an example, but be sure to check out the calculator for yourself.
| Pace | Percentage | |
|---|---|---|
| Long run pace | 06:40-07:42 | 65%-75% |
| Easy run pace | 06:40-06:15 | 75%-85% |
| Tempo run pace | 05:16-05:00 | 95%-100% |
| Yasso pace (per km/mile) | 04:38 | 108% |
| VO2max pace | 04:33 | 110% |
| Speed form pace | 04:21 | 115% |
