  • This week on Stride, we're joined by Inverclyde AC and Edinburgh University Hares & Hounds athlete, Peter Bradshaw.
    Fresh off the back of a 14.19 5k road PB, Peter undertakes a threshold session; consisting of 10 x 1km and gives us an insight in to his lactate testing.

    Went to bed wondering about the frequency of lactate testing during threshold…hope up to this in the feed.
    Perfect.
    Thx for that.

    I think 3:18 is more like marathon pace for a runner at his level than true threshold haha.

      threshold is a pace you should be able to run for around one hour. It is hard to convert that to a marathon due to the distance starting to be unpredicable for the last 5km

    It is very useful to have somebody handle the actual measurements. So that you can just stop to give a droplet of blood and then be on your merry way. Way more accurate and repeatable.
    It is better to measure less often but precisely and repeatably than measure frequently but poorly -- which is a given if you are doing it yourself while also exerting at and above LT pace.

      @leonardmilcin7789 totally agree! Wish I had someone to help me. Unfortunately I don't get any in-person coaching support

      @@yesno9374 If there is a group running you can have one person selected to handle measurements for the session. That person won’t get measurements on that session butbeverybody else will have more accurate numbers.

    @StrideAthletics could you inform us about the threshold book that Peter mentioned at 5m9sec

      @leevitoff Marius Bakken has written extensively about this on his website and also co-authored the recent paper "Does Lactate-Guided Threshold Interval Training within a High-Volume Low-Intensity Approach Represent the “Next Step” in the Evolution of Distance Running Training?". Hope this helps.

    which asics flats?

      I think they're the metaracers. They are carbon but they're significantly lower stack height than vaporfly-type racers

      @@StrideAthletics Conversational pace is different from person to person. The fact is, for many athletes the lungs are able to provide way more oxygen than our cardiovascular system is able to move around the body. When you think about this you will figure out that breathing faster does not actually lead to better performance. But our bodies are built to trigger faster breathing based on blood CO2 levels regardless of how much oxygen is there in blood.
      By training yourself to tolerate higher levels of CO2 you can learn to control your breathing even at relatively fast pace.
      When you can control higher levels of CO2 you can expel more CO2 with less air volume (partial pressure of CO2 in the expelled air is proportional to the concentration of CO2 in blood).
      For example, one good exercise (if you are already swimming) is trying to breathe less often while lapping at easy pace. Most people breath every 2, 3, 4 strokes. I am up to something like 8-10 (again, EASY PACE). It really helps when running. It may not make you run faster but it makes running less challenging -- you are no longer fighting to get more air which usually is counterproductive.

    Great video in testing conditions !....Hopefully a follow up with Peter to see how his back end of season went? 👍🦾🏃
