Set (1200) | If you have a Tempo Trainer Pro,
set it to mode 1 and your threshold pace per length time. It will beep every time
you hit a wall. Stay with the beep! You can use other metronome devices or some
sport watches the same way: set them to beep or vibrate at your threshold pace
per length time - rounded up to the nearest second if your device does not use
fractions of a second. If you are not using a metronome, you will need to watch
the wall clock, so you will probably want to use your threshold pace per lap time,
so you are only looking at the pace clock at every other wall. | Slowest
