Crossfit Springfield’s team The Young and The Rest of Us at the Color Run in Kansas City last weekend. Nice work ladies.
Short Interval (Mon 5pm, Tues 10AM): 400m TT (time trial), rest 5:00, then perform 4 x 400m @ 75% of TT pace with 1:00 rest between
C2: 400m TT, rest 5:00, then perform 4 x 500m @ 75% of TT pace with 1:00 rest between
Long Interval (Thurs 10AM, Thurs 5PM): 800m TT, rest 5:00, then 2 x 800m @ 75% of TT pace with 2:00 rest between
C2: 1000m TT, rest 5:00, then 2 x 800m @ 75% of TT pace with 2:00 rest between
How to calculate 75% of your TT pace: Take your TT time and multiply by .25. Then add that number to your TT time. Figure the min/sec.
Example: 1:17 TT= 77 (seconds) x.25 = 19.25
add 19 (or 20) to the 1:17 time. 96.25 seconds, or 1:36 would be 75%.
Long Run (not coached, ideally done on the weekend for the athlete training for an upcoming race or wanting to add a long run into their workouts): 10k TT

Just because it supposed to be at 75%, it still was tough. Great start to the new cycle.

Elizabeth–you’re math was probably scary because it’s incorrect? LOL
I ran mine this am because I am working evenings this week.
My 400 TT was 1:29 (or 89s). So my goal pace was 1:51 (not almost 3 min!!)
Either way…it was HARD to SLOW DOWN! I can’t believe I just said that phrase!
1:39, 1:41, 1:51 (yay!), 1:45 (closer)

Yeah, the math?
We figured it out when we did it this morning. Take your TT time and multiply by .25. Then add that number to your TT time. Figure the min/sec.
Example: 1:17 TT (by Jen Greer, NICE!) 77 (seconds) x.25 = 19.25
so we add 19 (or 20) to the 1:17 time. 96.25 seconds, or 1:36 would be 75%.
Mark 1:22 TT
Ryan: 1:24 TT
Jen G.: 1:17 TT
Libby: 1:25 TT
Ben: 1:22 TT
Zach: 1:30 TT
All of the runners were staying near their 75%, I had a hard time keeping all the times and recalculating. Good work today on pacing, regardless!

Yeah…… about that math! Thanks for letting me look like a fool for the past 48+ hours guys! Sorry. The formula comes straight from the CFE site not sure how I managed to screw it up but sorry for any confusion. Good work to all on your math and running skills this week 🙂
