      You go to the "workouts" menu. There you can choose "intervals" or "custom"..or something like this and then you can programme exactly what appears on your training plan, etc..

      I did not know! I also lived in London between 94-95 and had a flat in SW1, so it felt great to be back on the track around the Serpentine.

      Je crains de ne pas pouvoir trop courrir avec cette maudite tendinite (presque deux mois a l'arrêt) mais bon..quleques espoirs côté vélo avec l'Etape du Tour. J'irai tout de même participer à l'Extreman de Salou ou je me limiterais à la natation et au parcours vélo! Si tout va mieux en Septembre je rendrais visite à la Jungfrau!
