=High Intensity Interval Training and Tabata Paces=
I don't generally recommend using running for [[High Intensity Interval Training]] (HIIT) workouts because I believe that for many people there is less risk of injury by using a stationary bike. Below is However, if you'd like to know what your paces would need to be here's a table showing the paces for some of the more common HIIT intensities. (170% [[VO2max|V̇O<sub>2</sub>max]] corresponds with the intensity used by the Tabata protocol).

=V̇O<sub>2</sub>max Paces=
Sometimes it is useful to know what pace corresponds to a given percentage of VO2max, so the table below provides some estimates.

=Long Run Difficulty=
The table below shows the percentage of [[Glycogen]] used on runs of different length and pace. This is one way of evaluating the relative difficulty of different longer runs. The table makes use of a number of assumptions, as listed below, but I believe this is still a useful way of evaluating training runs.
