Here’s what I learned from an Olympian 👇 This test shows how far and fast you can really go — from 5K to marathon — all based on your perceived effort. Most runners train by pace or feel — but if you don’t know your lactate threshold, you’re training without direction and leaving performance gains on the table. WHAT’S LACTATE THRESHOLD? 
Your lactate threshold is the intensity where your body switches from comfortably clearing lactate to producing it faster than it can clear it — the tipping point before fatigue hits hard. Every workout has a purpose: Recovery runs, easy runs, tempos, intervals, you name it BUT if you don’t know your training zones how are you supposed to train effectively? The chances are, you’re very likely to be overdoing it. WHY YOU SHOULD TEST IT? 
A lactate threshold test tells you, your exact training zones so you can: 
✔️ Train smarter, not just harder
✔️ Push longer before fatigue sets in
✔️ Improve endurance & speed at the same time
✔️ Avoid overt...
