Segments to Improve

Based on the splits analysis, the segments where Tommy lost the most time are Running 1, Running 2, Running 5, Running 6, Best Lap, Running 8, and Sled Push. These segments require improvement to enhance Tommy's overall race performance.

To improve Running 1, Tommy should focus on increasing his running speed and endurance.

Interval training, such as alternating between high-intensity sprints and recovery jogs, can also improve his speed and overall performance in this segment.

Running 5 and Running 6 segments indicate that Tommy may need to focus on his running endurance. Incorporating long-distance runs into his training routine will help improve his endurance and ability to maintain a steady pace throughout the race. Additionally, incorporating strength training exercises that target the muscles used in running, such as squats and lunges, can help improve his running performance.

For the Best Lap segment, Tommy should focus on maintaining a consistent pace throughout the race. This can be achieved by practicing race pace runs during training and working on mental strategies to push through fatigue and maintain a strong pace.
