Paddy’s patter

Lots of impressive times coming through from the green and gold in virtual events and a big shout out to Alex Hemsley for hosting her own virtual lockdown event in her back garden.
It’d be great to see a big group join in the MNF and you’ll get the details through on email – stay safe, stay in touch and we will come through this together!

 

Zones and Pacing

Zone and target pace HR
Very Easy x 1.5 12:00 65%
Easy x 1.3 10:22 72%
Marathon x 1.09 08:45 83%
Threshold x 1.04 08:16 87%
Interval x 0.95 07:36 95%
Reps x 0.87 07:00 98%
Fast x 0.81 06:30 99%

Here’s the science bit, all times below based on running at 8 mins per mile for a 10k. You may need to adjust the timings for your own individual pace.

Following feedback we’ve created a pace calculator to allow you to work out your target paces easily, just enter your target 10k time in the h:mm:ss format and let it do the hard work for you.
For example 45 minutes would be 0:45:00, 65 minutes would be 1:05:00
