    Workout 1:
    4*30m
    4*60m
    4*150m
    90% effort
    Walk back rest in between short sprints
    5 min rest inbetween 150

    Workout 2:
    3×4 100m 12s pace
    3 min rest inbetween
    8 min rest inbetween sets

    Workout 3:
    4*60m
    4*80m
    6*200m 30s pace
    Walk back rest in between short sprints
    2 min rest inbetween 200m

    Workout 4:
    150m, 180m , 120m
    3 sets 80% effort
    8 min rest inbetween sets

    Workout 5:
    6×300
    55 sec pace
    6 min rest inbetween

    Workout 6:
    6*30
    90% effort
    4*350
    60 sec pace
    8 min rest inbetween

    Thanks

    workout 1: accel. training + speed endurance (split runs + 150s) + somewhat of a lactate threshold workout

    workout 2: intensive tempo

    workout 3: split runs (SE) + extensive tempo

    workout 4: borderline extensive-intensive tempo work

    workout 5: extensive tempo

    workout 6: accel. training + extensive tempo

    Mainly these workouts are building up a aerobic base + speed endurance from the split runs (sprints with walk back recoveries).

    Why not do something like this….
