Zone 5 running is done at a very high intensity and is performed at between 90-100% of your maximum heart rate. You should only be able to sustain a Zone 5 run for a short amount of time. Using Rate of Perceived Effort (RPE), Zone 5 running will be 9-10 RPE. It’s a very hard effort.Unlike Zone 2 training, too much of Zone 5 can have us backsliding in our training.
