The decode

It was a threshold set of four 2km reps above threshold, with 90s easy jogging recoveries, a warm-up and a cooldown.

The reps moved from 3:39/km to 3:43/km, then 3:46/km and 3:46/km, while heart rate rose from 175 to 179, 181 and 182. The set held together across the final two reps, with all recoveries at 1:30.

What the engine saw

  • 4 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.
  • Recoveries average 90s.
  • Matches the athlete's own session label.

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. The gap between actual and true effort is the day's hidden work: conditions were taxing the clock.
