Zone 2 running for HYROX: keep easy work easy
Begin with conversation
In Eightpace, easy running means an effort around 2–3/10 with full-sentence conversation possible. Slow down or use walk breaks to keep that purpose. It is an effort cue, not a laboratory measurement.
Know which zone model you mean
Zone 2 in a five-zone system does not necessarily mean the same thing as Zone 2 in a three-zone research model. The app does not calculate heart-rate zones from age or an unverified maximum.
Place it beside the harder work
Easy running provides a different session from intervals or threshold work. It should remain distinguishable in your plan instead of turning every run into a test. The amount needs to reflect current volume and the rest of your training.
