Training Sessions
Individual running workouts; building for future performance in road running.
There are many good articles containing running related topics here in Medium; personal stories and histories, training plans and races, running gear and technical equipment, to name but a few. Here, however, I’d like to offer something slightly different.

With the above in mind, my intention is to present a series of articles, with each article containing guidance for a single workout (session). The focus of each workout will be explained, along with methodology and targeted metrics. As the workout library grows, it is hoped that the reader will develop a better understanding of training at the ‘micro’ level, and how these micro level workouts can be combined to produce ‘macro’ level training plans and schedules.
As always, usual caveats apply. Make sure that you are physically capable and in good health before attempting any future workouts presented here. The sessions will mostly be of a ‘quality’ type, so involving intensive efforts over extended periods of time. If new to this type of training, be cautious; easing up the effort levels up over a number of weeks and months is a sensible approach.
Look for sessions appearing in the near future.
