The decode

Six 3:30 hard repetitions off 1:30 recoveries made this an interval session. The 30-minute low-intensity lead-in set up repeated hard running rather than one continuous effort, with the fixed recoveries keeping the demand high across the set.

The first four reps held between 3:46/km and 3:48/km before the final two moved to 3:52/km. Heart rate rose from 172 to 182 by rep five, then finished at 180, showing accumulating load without a late collapse.

What the engine saw

  • 6 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.
  • Recoveries average 90s.

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.
