For me, interval training allows me to push myself beyond my limits. I will run at a speed of 5.0 - 5.7 for at least 2-3 minutes and then stop, do some weights/abs, come back and do the run again. It’s like circuit training. I’ve increased the speed of my run without wanting to stop or pass out, which for me, is a huge accomplishment.

I did that today. Did a warmup, 2 cycles of the run/walk, abs and weights, and then back to the cardio. Dunno what was different, but I made it through the entire cardio workout (40 min total)…which is a small accomplishment.
