Joe Vigil talks of having his runners early in the season run a workout of 5x1 mile at 85% with a 3 minute reocvery. Can anyone tell me 85% of what? 5K PR? Mile PR? vVO2?
Thanks,
JP

It is 85% of what you could run for an all out mile.
So If I can run a mile in 5:00 then 85% of that effort would be 5:53. When I can run that for 2 miles, I'm ready to drop
Right?
