If you're looking to improve your #running, the Norwegian approach to sub-threshold training might be worth looking into.

I've read both of these now cover-to-cover and the framework is simple: easy, sub-t, easy, sub-t, easy, sub-t, easy long.

I train by power and keep my CP updated. Unless in a special block, my schedule is:

1. 60' @ < 80% CP
2. 10×3' @ 96-99% CP
3. 60' @ < 80% CP
4. 5×6' @ 94-97% CP
5. 60' @ < 80% CP
6. 3×10' @ 92-95% CP
7. 90-120' @ 80-83% CP

@atoponce I also have questions 😃
How precise do you stay in these percentages and/or do you only train on flat ground?
I find it sometimes difficult to get a specific pace / hr range due to terraind and gps fluctuations.

@aramloosman I use my Stryd pod as the source of pace instead of GPS, but I also train by power and let the pace fall where it falls. I train primarily on a paved walking trail that has rolling hills, so power is a better metric to keep the effort. I don't have any problems keeping my effort locked in.
