In this video, we tackle an essential question for runners: should we train at our target race pace or at the pace we can currently run? This discussion was sparked by a recent comment on my video about Jakob Ingebrigtsen, where viewers were surprised by how "slow" Jakob's intervals were compared to his 5K time. As a world champion specializing in distances between 1500 meters and 5000 meters, Jakob’s approach to interval training emphasizes comfort and volume over time.

In This Video, You'll Learn:

- Target vs. Current Pace: The pros and cons of training at your target race pace versus your current pace.
- Jakob Ingebrigtsen's Strategy: How the world champion uses comfortable interval paces to build volume and endurance but this was just one of his sessions.
- Optimal Progress: Strategies to move forward as quickly as possible towards your dream goals.
- Practical Tips: How to work back from your target 5K pace, starting with shorter intervals and gradually increasing the length and volume.

Key Topics Covered:

1. Training Philosophy: Understanding the rationale behind training at different paces.
2. Interval Training Insights: Why running comfortable intervals can be more beneficial than you think.
3. Progression Strategy: Step-by-step guide to progressing from shorter, comfortable intervals to running 5K at your target pace.
4. Building Endurance: Techniques to enhance your endurance and volume over time.

In This Video, You’ll Discover:

- How to decide whether to train at your target race pace or current capability pace.
- Insights into Jakob Ingebrigtsen’s training approach and why it works.
- Practical steps to incorporate target pace intervals into your training.
- The benefits of gradually increasing interval length and session volume.
