Yasso 800s
Developed by Bert Yasso as part of a marathon training plan it is designed to recreate your target marathon pace on the track in 800m efforts. e.g.:
3 hour marathon = 3 minutes for 800m effort
3:30 marathon = 3:30 minutes
4:00 = 4:00 minutes
5:00 = 5:00 minutes
And everything in between
Aim to complete every Yasso at your intended pace (i.e. if you are heading for a 4 hour marathon you need to complete each lap in 2 minutes.)

Recovery between each 800m: jog for the same time that it took for you to complete your 800m.  (i.e. if you did your 800m in 4mins, your recovery is 4mins)
40 min set
* if you aren't training for a marathon, you can still come along!
