Many thanks

Just curious how long would you use that split number until you re-test again?

I am thinking this would change over time with increased fitness?

I decrease it ever so slightly from week to week. So if 2 weeks ago I did a 4x10 workout at 1:47.8, this week I'll do it at 1:47.6.

Again, not a ton of science behind it, I do it more by "feel". It's been working well for me so far so I don't foresee changing my strategy anytime soon.
PBs: 2k 6:09.0 (2020), 6k 19:38.9 (2020), 10k 33:55.5 (2019), 60' 17,014m (2018), HM 1:13:27.5 (2019)

Old PBs: LP 1:09.9 (~2010), 100m 16.1 (~2010), 500m 1:26.7 (~2010), 1k 3:07.0 (~2010)
