The decode

A four-rep 1km interval set was a defined change-of-pace session. The 6 km before the work made the faster block a test of pace under accumulated load.

The set peaked on rep two at 3:46/km, then slowed on both remaining reps. Heart rate reached 177 on the final rep, up from 170 on the first.

What the engine saw

  • 4 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.

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.
