Sets of 800m, with rest periods between each repetition. A great workout for pacing control, endurance and cadence.

- Rest for 3 minutes
Main Workout (800m Intervals)
- Sprint for 800m

Workout Notes
- This workout must be done on a flat route.
- Your fast-paced running should feel like approximately 80% of your maximum sprinting speed.
- The objective of an interval workout is to run at the same pace for every repetition (not to fade as the workout progresses).
