Hi, I am a bit confused about the instructions on recovery pace for some intervals. For example, in MIT 12x2/1 the 1min recovery is tagged as “Easy jog” but the prescribed pace is not easy jog indeed. For me (4:09/km threshold pace) the “easy jog” pace prescribed is 5:29 to 4:50/km (screenshot attached) which is zone 2 touching in zone 3. I’d call it rather a float recovery. Easy jog would be at least over 6:00/km. So what’s the optimal recovery pace?
For the preceding short hill sprints the recoveries are “easy walk back” which is certainly not at the pace prescribed. In this case it seems clear to me that I should ignore this pace and just walk back easy, though target pace alerts in your watch are annoying (they can’t be disabled in Coros and the only option is to modify the workout)
