BEST WORKOUT TO IMPROVE YOUR ENDURANCE (FARTLEK)

This is one of the best workouts to improve your endurance and improve your 1500 - Marathon.

A half marathon or marathon runner may want to increase the volume of the session by adding a 2K at the start with an extra 2K float, even further you could add a 3K and 2K float which would total 19K. With the 3K being marathon pace, and the 2K being half marathon pace and not getting down quite as quick in the 1200 and 800m reps.

Excellent session! My first experience with floating recoveries was with the Mona Fartlek, and I found that doing that workout after a long block of tempo work provided a real jumpstart to my fitness. In short, I'm a big believer and want to try this one out...

[sylvainbauge]

Tried it today and it was really fun. I'm trying to run a 90 min half marathon (have run faster before but I'm older now) and this was the result:
1.60 4:07/km pace
2.00 4:42 (Float)
1.20 3:59
2.00 4:46 (Float)
0.80 3:51
2.00 4:56 (Float)
0.40 3:15

So basically the Michigan just that you ran it as a alternating tempo

Interesting to hear about your perspective on float recoveries, knowing that jakob does a lot of walk or still recovery, would you say floats are better for longer distance 10k+? Or overall just a great way to build aerobic capacity, I’ve noticed getting really aerobically fit off short 30s-60s recoveries

I see the adidas gear! How are you getting on with the adios pro 3? 👀

[jacobreesmontgomery]

ayo isn’t this just the Michigan workout basically

[pxcs]

So at what point of season you should do this session? When trying to peak or in base training?

You can't beat a multi pace training session 💪 👌 👍

At least Stateside, this is known as "The Michigan" (Ron Warhurst [Very Nice Track Club] came up with it while he was coaching at the University of Michigan). Such a hard session, but damn it gets you fit 😅

How do you work out your 1500 and 3k pace? I’m pretty clear on my 5 & 10k times, can I work off them?

[leeon-oyfl]

This sounds horrible! Doing it next week

[alibahzad]

Good job bro keep motivated keep hustling

[stefanocostagli]

I really appreciate this kind of vlogs but I have a doubt about the lenght of recovery. IMHO it looks it too long, couldn't it better only 1k? thanks in advance for ur comments

[bryanryder]

Tried this kind of float training before cause I absolutely agree if you can get it down I think it can be extremely beneficial to help build endurance and aerobic capacity. Any tips for how to like really nail it though? Ive done it in fartlek sessions mainly and would find myself having a hard time keeping the floats the same. I would want my floats around 5:50-6:00 and would have some floats at 5:30’s some floats at 6:30’s sometimes would even out but not as much as I’d like.

Id be curious to learn about breathing techniques used by elite runners. It seems like an obvious and important part of aerobic training but what are the best ways to go about it?

This looks like a really good session. I’m 15 and training for cross country. I just did a 18:02 5k. Is that too high of an intensity for me?
