A breakdown of “Miracle at the Track” by Seth James DeMoor. Worth watching in full. The key concepts are below so you can run the workout right away.

Key points

• The session is built around kilometer repeats (1 km intervals) for speed and aerobic capacity.
• During taper, Seth swaps long runs for middle-distance runs to keep volume without the fatigue.
• Recovery: sleep, epsom-salt baths, and body warmth all support peak performance.
• The Rotterdam Marathon target pace is 3:15-3:16/km (about 5:15/mi), which sets the intensity for these intervals.

Workout example (track interval set)

1. Warm-up: 6 km easy jog, then a few short 200 m accelerations.
2. Kilometer repeats: 12 x 1 km at roughly 3:20/km, with 200 m of jogging between each (bump to 15 x 1 km if you’re sharp).
3. Cool-down: 5-6 km easy, relaxed stride.

Tip: ease the pace on the first 2-3 reps to get the legs turning over, then lock into goal pace.

Takeaway Try this and scale paces to your goal race pace in the Pacing app. The structure is flexible. Trim the distance or add rest days if needed. Watch Seth James DeMoor’s full video for taper timing, recovery, and race-day pacing.
