Training Effort Zones

The pace on the calculator only tells part of the story — how hard an effort feels matters just as much as the number.

  • Easy

    Conversational effort — the pace behind most of your weekly mileage and long runs.

  • Tempo

    "Comfortably hard" — sustainable for roughly 20–40 continuous minutes.

  • Threshold

    Right around your lactate threshold — short, focused efforts with recovery.

  • Interval

    Hard efforts broken into repeats, built to raise your top-end speed.

  • Race Pace

    The exact pace you're targeting for race day itself.
