The decode

Ten 600m reps at 10km pace off 200m floats formed a continuous interval set. The easy recoveries kept the work aerobic without fully resetting the legs, making pace control more important than a single fast repetition.

The set tightened from 3:39/km on the third rep to 3:27/km on the sixth, then stayed between 3:31/km and 3:37/km through the finish. Heart rate rose from 166 on the first rep to 176 on the last, while the recoveries averaged 66s.

What the engine saw

  • 10 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.
  • Recoveries average 66s.

Calibration flags

  • Running power threshold estimated from the athlete's half-marathon best efforts (60-min power 476 W, 95% of 20-min power 460 W). Treat power zones and load as ±3%.
  • Zones and running threshold are one snapshot, read 2 Jul 2026 and applied to every session in the archive. An older session is scored against today's zones, not the zones the athlete trained with then.

The rep pace re-expressed for flat ground and cool air, the effort, not the clock. Adjustments are modest on this one; on a hot day or a hilly route this is where the real work hides.
