The decode

This was a split interval set built around six 600m reps and a 2km race-pace block. The format paired controlled running with a hard finish, then repeated it after the race-pace block; static recoveries made the transitions costly.

The second trio was slower than the first, with the 600m pace moving from 3:23/km, 3:25/km and 3:26/km to 3:31/km, 3:32/km and 3:34/km. The 2km block held 3:42/km while heart rate rose from 171 to 180.

What the engine saw

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