7-8 20 MIN TEMPO
WHAT DO ALL THESE #s MEAN & HOW USEFUL ARE THEY?
> First... good job on having a "can do" attitude and putting out a "can do" effort.
> We did the same workout exactly 1 year ago.
> Useful to check to see where your fitness is at this point in 2026 vs last year.
> Most of you show improvement, although this is just a snapshot so don't read too much into this one way or the other.
> While there isn't a direct correlation between this workout and performance later in the year, LY PRs and average 5K times are listed as well.
> We will do this workout again in a month, so you should see fitness gains if you run consistently for the next 4 weeks.
> 20 min tempo is good prep for 5K races that will be + or - 20 minutes and require you to try harder as the race goes on.
