Did my first full #EIM session in the park today (15x200m). This would have killed me 3 months ago :)

Looks much less corporate to the the one I found in wp ;)

Q:
1 There is a formula, or just follow book tables ?
2 Works for both solo and group training ?

1) There is a table with suggested interval times based on your current 10k time. I have the German edition of the book; it's excellent in my (non-expert) opinion & includes training plans adaptable to the number of days per week you want to run.
2) I think it works better for solo training, since everyone has an individual goal pace. But maybe that's not an issue... I don't know how groups train.
