This session develops and challenges your ultra-distance marathon race pace. The body of this training session includes 6 x 800 meters. However, the challenge is in the recovery. After running the 800m at just above threshold pace, the 300m recovery to complete the 1km is at close to ultra-distance marathon pace. Similar to other sessions in the Zwift Academy Tri program; working above and below target paces is a really effective way to improve them.
