  • I thought it was the 800m pace you could hold over 10 reps, so wouldn't it be difficult to get the Strava data? I'm skeptical, as I did my 8 x at sub 2 minutes 53 seconds, but I doubt I could successfully train to do a 2.53 marathon.

    Good point.

    I wonder how Yasso sourced the data - I can't find it published anywhere.

    So I call meh on it's accuracy as a predictor.

    As a workout - I guess 8 x 800 is as good as any interval session for speed work.
