The decode

A long run with 6-minute efforts at half-marathon intensity around six 1-minute reps was a late-session speed change after a long aerobic block. The opening and closing sustained efforts made the session more than a short-speed set, with the reps placed inside accumulated load.

The reps quickened from 3:33/km to 3:13/km by rep five, then fell to 3:30/km on the sixth. Heart rate climbed from 155 to 164 across the set, with 161 on the final rep; the 0:37 recovery before the last rep made the final pace drop more notable.

What the engine saw

  • 6 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.
  • Recoveries average 56s.

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.
