▶Key Running Science Concepts
Lactate Threshold
The pace where lactate accumulates faster than your body can clear it (around 85-90% max HR). Training at this intensity raises your sustainable pace.
VO2 Max
The maximum oxygen your body can utilize during intense effort. Higher VO2 max = better aerobic capacity. Developed through high-intensity intervals.
Aerobic vs Anaerobic
Aerobic uses oxygen (Zones 1-3), anaerobic doesn't (Zones 4-5). Most training should be aerobic to build sustainable fitness.
The 80/20 Rule
80% of running should be easy Zone 2, 20% should be hard (Zones 3-5). This balance maximizes adaptations while preventing overtraining.
