The number above gives you your running pace and marker distances based on your 2 km time trial. It gives you a clear, repeatable benchmark for your 30, 60 and 90-second efforts — but the real value comes from using it consistently, re-testing, and updating your targets as your fitness improves.

Use the markers as your benchmark, then let your performance show you when it’s time to move them.

  1. RUN THE TEST.
    Complete your 2 km time trial at the fastest pace you can sustain across the full distance and record your finishing time.

  2. USE YOUR MARKERS.
    Follow the prescribed distances for your 30, 60 and 90-second efforts. Aim to reach the marker as the timer expires — not well before it.

  3. STAY CONSISTENT.
    Keep the same targets through the training block. That gives your body time to adapt and makes your progress easier to measure.

  4. RE-TEST.
    Re-test under similar conditions as your fitness improves. Enter your new 2 km time and your running pace and marker distances will update automatically.

  5. BUILD YOUR ENGINE.
    The calculator gives you the pace. Your training builds the capacity to hold it.
