I think the twisting and rotating is part of what my core is up to - I can always feel my obliques after a hard race. My core is generally pretty strong though, it's had a lot of work over the years :)

Gobi, I'm doing that fell race on Sunday - mainly for fun though cos I will be in hospital on wednesday.

So yes why not? :-)

A tempo run is where you run in the lactate threshold zone. Over to Gobi... :-)

After a hard race - I feel *my* obliques too!!
Interesting that - and I've been contemplating the possibility of an inadeqate core stability, although it's unlikely!

After a hard race it hurts more to laugh than it does to run :)

I'd be surprised if I had poor core stability though.

Tempo run put simply - running at an uncomfortable but not out of control pace. Faster than a normal run but not as fast as intervals.

About This Thread

Maintained by Elderberry
Everything you need to know about training with a heart rate monitor. Remember the motto "I can maintain a fast pace over the race distance because I am an Endurance God". Mind the trap door....

Gobi lurks here, but for his advice you must first speak his name. Ask and you shall receive.

A quote:

"The area between the top of the aerobic threshold and anaerobic threshold is somewhat of a no mans land of fitness. It is a mix of aerobic and anaerobic states. For the amount of effort the athlete puts forth, not a whole lot of fitness is produced. It does not train the aerobic or anaerobic energy system to a high degree. This area does have its place in training; it is just not in base season. Unfortunately this area is where I find a lot of athletes spending the majority of their seasons, which retards aerobic development. The athletes heart rate shoots up to this zone with little power or speed being produced when it gets there." Matt Russ, US International Coach
