The decode

A threshold set with 30-second hard efforts around a planned 8 km block became a 4 km threshold block. The short repetitions supplied speed under incomplete recovery; the sustained block supplied the session’s aerobic load.

The first nine 30-second efforts stayed between 3:02/km and 3:19/km, while the threshold block ran at 3:38/km with HR 168. The final 47-second effort was 3:43/km, but the preceding repetitions held their pace range.

What the engine saw

  • 10 work intervals detected from lap markers, confirmed by clear pace separation.
  • Recoveries average 318s.

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.
