Short interval session
While it has been only 5 days I feel ready to have some fun. Earlier this week my body reacted positive on some hill training. Today I focussed on 300m interval training.

While 300m interval is not the distance you would incorporate for marathon training (traditionally that is 800, 1200, 1600 or 2400m repeats) this felt a good compromise between having fun and not too much additional stress on the legs. Furthermore I cut back on both the total training distance aswell as the number of reps. The primary goal was to just have some fun today. But intervals will be a key component in my 2026 season as I aim to drive my lactate threshold to 3:50 / km (now 4:08 /km) that way I should be able to maintain 4:16 / km without being dependent on perfect weather conditions. 

My session today was a foggy one which is something I can always appreciate!

Looking at my run stats, the intervals seemed to go rather consistent which was a good sign for my recovery status.

But I also noticed that I should had taken a little longer recovery runs in between reps (and include a warmup ๐Ÿ˜…). So I will probably create the next interval session in garmin workouts again.

During last weekends run I talked with an other runner from Rotterdam that told me there is an open track field available that is worth exploring for interval. I will try to explore that option during next weeks interval session! 

Happy running
