Okay, I know, it's not the most exciting workout, but it's as much of a mental challenge to plow through it as it is a physical one to finish. This is a great way to clock in some additional yardage before recovery day, and to cross a mental hurdle of doing a long (3,500) set with no breaks. While hitting pace is not essential, you should be training at 85% effort and working up a sweat. If you can be within 3-5 seconds of your race pace per 100 for the duration of the set, you're doing great.
