You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: Just thinking Subject: RE: My coach doesn't believe in thresholds and has us do only interval work. Is this normal for college? Body:
Cruise intervals are like the interval form of a tempo run. Same benefits. Instead of one long sustained high aerobic effort, you do intervals at a faster pace with either a short standing rest or a longer rest but still running (like a fartlek). So this pace could range from 400m pace to 5k race pace to make up for the rests (since you dont get to rest during a normal tempo run). But it would still be a tempo workout and not a speed workout. The main concern you should have with your coach is... Are you improving? If you are, then you got nothing to worry about. Hit the submit button below if you want us to review the post. If you feel this is urgent or want a reply, email us at letsrun@letsrun.com about the post and please include a link to the thread the post is on and what page number/post on that page it is
