The decode

This was a hill session of three sets of three 20-second uphill sprints, each followed by 8 minutes at strong marathon pace, with jog-down recoveries and 2 minutes easy between sets.

The nine reps covered 106 m, 102 m, 96 m, 92 m, 88 m, 93 m, 98 m, 97 m and 96 m in 0:20, 0:21, 0:20, 0:21, 0:20, 0:21, 0:21, 0:20 and 0:20. The three 8-minute segments were 3:55/km at HR 151, 4:04/km at HR 173 and 3:54/km at HR 163.

What the engine saw

  • 9 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.
  • Recoveries average 44s.

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.
