- Include hill training sessions to build strength and power in the legs.
- Incorporate strength training exercises that target the lower body, such as squats, lunges, and calf raises, to improve running performance and prevent injuries.
- Consider working with a running coach to improve running form and efficiency.

2. Roxzone: Leong's roxzone time of 00:12:07 was 02:05 slower than average, indicating that he took more time to transition between exercise zones. To improve this segment, he should focus on the following training strategies:
- Improve overall fitness and endurance through cross-training activities such as cycling, swimming, or rowing.
- Practice transitions between exercise zones to minimize time wasted during the race.
- Incorporate circuit training or functional fitness workouts to improve overall fitness and agility.
- Work on mental preparation and focus during transitions to minimize rest time.

3. Running 6: Leong's running 6 time of 00:08:39 was 01:58 slower than average. To improve this segment, he should focus on the following training strategies:
- Incorporate longer distance runs into his training routine to build endurance and improve pacing.

- Work on strengthening the core and upper body to maintain good form and posture during longer runs.
- Consider working with a running coach to analyze and improve running technique.

4. Running 5: Leong's running 5 time of 00:08:01 was 01:02 slower than average. To improve this segment, he should focus on the following training strategies:
- Incorporate interval training sessions with shorter, faster bursts of running to improve speed and endurance.
- Include plyometric exercises such as box jumps or jump squats to improve explosive power and running efficiency.
- Work on strengthening the hip flexors and glutes to improve running stride and power.
- Consider incorporating hill sprints or incline training to simulate race conditions and improve running on varied terrain.

Strategies
