Tempo runs are fantastic for boosting your speed endurance.A tempo run is a sustained effort at a "comfortably hard" pace, typically lasting 20-60 minutes. It trains your body to:
- Clear lactate more efficiently.
- Maintain a faster pace for longer durations.
- Improve mental toughness at higher intensities.
"The tempo run is where you learn to suffer productively."
