Smart Coach Help?
![[Deleted User]](https://wc.vanillicon.com/c1d30f6807c2bc6b224403f005efbf8d_100.png)
Hello all,
Excuse me for being thick. 
I'm due to do the following speedwork session tonight:
Speedwork
Dist: 5mi, inc
Warm; 3x800@3:42
w/400 jogs; Cool
Does this mean my I should be running the 800 repeats in 3:42 or is it 800m at 3:42 per km pace?
Thank you.

Please can anybody help?
Thank you.
It's more likely to be the length of the repeats than the pace I'd have thought, but without a bit of context it could be either.
What are some of your recent race times?
The race time I put in when getting the schedule from Smart Coach was a 50 minute 10k.
Thank you.
OK.
Yes, definitely 3 minutes and 42 seconds then. I'm (just) sub-40 for 10k, and I find 800m repeats at around 3:42km pace challenging.
Good luck.
Great stuff. Thanks for your help B-B-B. Much appreciated.
You were spot on B-B-B. A 3:42 KM pace would have left me in a heap on the ground. The 3 x 3:42 800 was a great workout for me.
Thanks again.
