I have the same case but my workout is 5x2 km on track (from 4:25min/km to 4:15min/km each a little faster. First I did like you and increased a little distance but then came to my mind, that better would be to set duration. I did like this:
Important is to mention that from my own experience I always run a little faster than it is planned Supposedly this should also work.
Unfortunately thats very hard to do. The activity charts run everything on time. Thats why I added the distance ruler instead of supporting a ādistance/timeā toggle.
Then the green overlaid workout line is useless for distance-based workouts. Probably we need a switch to hide it. Also I frequently find myself unable to move it left/right far enough to really align
Is it possible to have a run until total distance step? So the step ends when the total (for the whole workout, not just that step) distance reaches some value?
The use case for this is when doing intervals within a run workout (fartlek-style or just pickups), I often tack on extra low intensity volume at the end to reach a target total distance. The intervals are done using a pace or HR range, so I basically have to estimate how much more distance should be done in a cooldown. Would be awesome if that was automatic
Whenever I plug a distance into the workout builder, the duration the distance will take seems to be set to a default number. E.g. It will take the same amount of time to cover 4 miles in Z1 as it does in Z5.
Where does this pace/mile come from? (It seems to be somewhere around Mid-Z2)
How can I make the time for distance at different efforts show up correctly?
Thanks!
(p.s. I know 4 mi running in Z5 is impossible, itās just an example of how the pace/mi doesnāt change)
Iād love for Intervals to know 4 miles at Z1 power is going to take longer than 4 miles at Z4 power, since I rarely actually train by pace, Iām always going by power or hr.
Have a similar question. It seems like when I put in a pace target (e.g. for intervals, warmup/cooldown still based on HR), the load calculation doesnāt try to estimate the appropriate HR zones, so the load for the workout is way off. I can manually guesstimate the load, but would be ideal if the site could āinterpolateā the right HR ranges based on target paces. All my pace and HR zones are set up and have the same number for each. Would that be possible @david ?
Currently yes. There have been older threads here discussing a similar problem. I āplanā commutes as well and I know the distance and time itāll take me, but Iād have to āplanā it by duration as distance+power does not calculate the time I know it takes.
