NAZ WORKOUT OF THE WEEK: Sets of 2k/1k with the 2k at Lactate Threshold Pace and the 1k at 5k race pace. Two minutes rest between each 2k and 1k and a 400 jog between sets.

This one's an @alan_culpepper special! Coach had @marakwetexpress and @masai_alex do this session last week in preparation for the @wharftowharf 6 mile on July 24. For Wesley and Alex, the prescribed paces were 6:00 for the 2ks and 2:40 for the 1ks. The 2ks, because of their duration, were converted to account for the altitude in Flagstaff (7,000ft) but the 1ks were kept pretty close to sea level 5k race pace (13:20 rhythm). They nailed it!!

HOW TO DO IT YOURSELF: This is a great workout for those of you training for just about any distance from 1,500 meters to the marathon. If you’re a miler, this is a strength workout that might be done a little earlier in your season as a base-building workout and in that case you’d be conservative on the paces–making sure that the 2ks were on the slower end of your threshold zone and the 1ks were at a very realistic 5k pace (based on what you could actually run at the time of the workout). Same goes for the marathon where this session would serve as a chance to work on some quicker paces to break up the monotony of long marathon-specific work. However, if you’re preparing for a 10k then this session is a bread-and-butter type of workout that should be done in the heart of training, and fairly aggressively. Good luck!!

Stay tuned for another edition of #NAZWorkouts coming out next Wednesday!!
