To ascertain accurate training times and workout sets, you would need to do a time trial of differing distances for the different race distances that you are looking at.
time trial results on 13th Jan 2006 SMU 7pm
2.4km (6 laps on track)
Wan - 12.36min (400m splits at 2.0, 2.08, 2.08, .. 2.0)
1.6km (4 laps on track)
Eric Chang - 10.32 min (400min splits at 2.18, 2.45, 2.50, 2.40)
Do try to run the splits evenly but the first one is usually a bit faster than the rest since you are starting fresh. Any workout longer than 2 min and less than 1hr is a mix of aerobic (burn fats and oxygen) and anaerobic effort (burn glycogen and oxygen). You want to get your body to burn fats and spare the glycogen for spurts.
