  <name>30-min Z5 (VO2 Max) Medium #09</name>
  <description>This session mimics the surging nature of a breakaway or criterium race. By embedding short, 15-second power spikes into a steady tempo block, you'll train your body to handle sharp accelerations without fading. This enhances lactate tolerance and your ability to repeat hard efforts.</description>
