Analyzing his total running time of 00:32:52, it's evident that Matthew's running is slightly slower than average, indicating an opportunity for improvement in his running efficiency. With a slower total running time by 00:09 compared to the average, and his best running lap being 00:03:47, Matthew shows potential to enhance his running capabilities. Additionally, his performance indicates strong strength capabilities, as seen in the sled push where he was significantly faster than average. This suggests that Matthew has a hybrid profile with a slight edge in strength but could benefit from boosting his running prowess.

His pacing was slightly conservative, with running segments generally close to the average, suggesting he might benefit from an adjusted pace strategy, potentially starting slightly faster to capitalize on his strength-endurance blend.

Segments to Improve

  • Roxzone: Matthew's roxzone time was 00:29 slower than average. To improve transition times, Matthew can work on transition drills that focus on quick and efficient movements between exercises.

  • Total Running Time: To cut down the 00:09 slower time, Matthew should incorporate speedwork and interval training into his routine. Exercises: Tempo runs, fartlek training, and hill sprints.

Race Strategies
