Office Hours: Split 800s

  • Jones Track 2301 South Federal Street Chicago, IL, 60616 United States (map)
This session blends endurance and speed by breaking traditional 800s into fast–float–fast segments.
You’ll open with a strong 400m, settle into a 200m float to maintain rhythm without fully recovering, then finish with a sharp 200m. This structure teaches you to manage discomfort while staying efficient.
Workout:
• Warm-up
• Split 800s:
 – 400m fast
 – 200m float (steady, controlled)
 – 200m fast
• Recovery between reps as needed
• Cool down
The goal is controlled discomfort. Stay quick, relaxed, and composed as the effort builds. Use the float to reset your breathing and reinforce smooth mechanics.
