Tempo Weds was a joke 🙄

Ran too hard and 0 self control. Was meant to be 4.50s😬

Pace judgement is something youd think Id have at 44 years old.

Sub 20.26? Not if I dont learn how to pace properly

"20 minutes at threshold pace" is the tempo run everyone repeats. But dig into the physiology and the pace most runners actually hold rarely sits at the lactate threshold it's named for. The label outran the science. #Running #RunningScience #TempoRun #RunningHistory #TheLongRun

The "tempo run" gets sold as one clean workout at one magic pace, but the phrase "comfortably hard" is doing a lot of hiding — nobody fully agrees where that line sits. And lactate isn't the waste product the story makes it out to be. It's fuel.
