  <name>60-min Z4 (Threshold) Pushing #08</name>
  <description>Practice perfect pacing with this negative split threshold workout. The goal is to finish the second long interval stronger than the first, simulating the end of a race or a hard ride. This builds both physical stamina and the mental discipline to conserve energy and finish strong.</description>
