Easy running

Eightpace movement notes · Reviewed by a certified HYROX trainer · 7 October 2026

Accumulate comfortable running that leaves room for the rest of the programme.

Set up

Use a safe, familiar running route. Follow your warm-up before the main running time.

Keep in mind

  1. Keep the effort conversational.
  2. Slow down or walk to keep breathing comfortable.
  3. Record actual distance and duration separately from the target.

What to check

Easy running is an effort description. Zone numbers vary between systems; this app does not measure your physiological zones.

Use it in your session

Follow the warm-up, target, effort and recovery in your own programme. Log actual results after doing the work. A past result is a reference, not an automatic load or pace prescription.
