You should set up interval workouts to train for a specific quality. To train for endurance, for
example, you might set up a classic 1-mile repeat workout: 3 to 6 repetitions of one fast interval
(about half-marathon pace) followed by a 1-minute recovery period.
Or, to train for speed, you might run sets of 4 x 400m, using all 8 intervals in the workout: 3
repetitions consisting of four fast intervals (at slightly more than your race pace), each followed
by a 2-minute recovery period. By working with the 8 intervals and up to 99 repetitions, you can
design an interval workout to suit virtually any training program.
