Key Points

  • The goal was to hit sub‑5:10 mile repeats while testing the new Nike Vaporfly 4 on a track, a classic session that showcases the power of Mastering Interval Training: Science-Backed Workouts and How a Smart App Can Personalize Them.
  • Instead of a long 3‑mile warm‑up, the runner used a short 5‑minute warm‑up to keep legs fresh for the high-intensity effort.
  • Emphasis on mid‑foot strike, relaxed toe‑off, and confidence in cornering with the lower‑stack Vaporfly.
  • Practical tip: keep the warm‑up short and focus on turnover early in the mile to maintain speed.

Workout Example

1️⃣ Warm‑up – 5 minutes easy (flat pace) to wake the legs. 2️⃣ Mile Repeats – 3 × 1‑mile repeats at roughly 5:00‑5:05 per mile pace. This type of session is a game-changer for building the raw speed needed to significantly lower your race times and is a foundational workout for anyone serious about Mastering 5K Speed: Proven Interval Strategies to Cut Minutes off Your Time. Take brief recovery (a few minutes) between repeats. 3️⃣ Focus – Work on high‑frequency turnover, keep a relaxed mid‑foot strike, and stay confident in the shoe’s cornering ability.
