For instance, the length of the intervals, the # of intervals--particularly when you are hitting the race specific period. <BR/><BR/>The Weds. run is important, but depending where you are in your fitness (20, 17, 15 5000m Fitness for example), doing it as progression the day following a workout can be really hard and burn you out. Maybe you don't ever really treat that run as a progression.<BR/><BR/>Finally, considering you'll be doubling 2 times per week, I'd give serious thought to taking that Thursday as a complete rest day--or if you do jog, run it as 30:00 @ 65% or something. In fact, I'd keep M and SA at a 70% limit as well--perhaps even the LR days on SU's. Remember when Joe's guys are called to 20-24 milers, they're moving at 6-6:30 pace quite often. <BR/><BR/>The #1 thing Joe drilled into my head in our brief, occasional emails is that you need to be honest how you're recovering--and I wasn't last season and it nailed me.<BR/><BR/>As always, best of luck. You'll get there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
