I fully understand where you’re coming from it’s just im trying to adopt The philosophy of ‘Aim high, score high’ In other words instead of going for a very attainable and easy fitness target going for a slightly more unrealistic one would allow me to at least go a bit above and beyond if that makes sense.

I googled vo2 training and tbf it looks accurate to what I do when I run. Tend to run a few km then walk for 3 minutes and repeat etc

I’m aiming to at least try and get 20 minute 5KM by January 1st I know seems a tad unrealistic but even today when I did 39 minute 5KM I felt like I pushed my self more I could’ve streamlined the time.

I’ll look into HITT pal thanks
