Falcarius, let me correct you! You CAN run intervals; any runner can, but it takes some discipline, which is learnt by experience. The best method is to programme your Garmin etc. to tell you what to do. It's easy to do the first few too fast and then run out of steam before doing them all. I am 73 so my pace is slow nowadays. If I decide to do 8x300m.(+ 200m. slow jog recovery), then I first calculate what speed to do each rep. My best 300m. track time is about 1:10. For a set of intervals, I would add 10 -15%, so do each rep in approx. 1:20, doing my jog recovery very slowly to recover properly. If I try to do a PB (or nearly) for each rep., I won't last out the whole set. Then, if you're training for a race, it can be useful to do set of intervals at your predicted race pace, to accustom your body to race conditions, with a fairly short recovery. e.g. 6x800m. (+150m. jog recovery) for a 5K.
