I have it mastered. Never could make doubles work for more than a total of 2 days in an entire season. As you know, I'm all about quality running....still working on the quantity. I'm anxious to see how this approach works for you....kcabahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06069583379244494500noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990493202278472393.post-52495342344940759172009-02-14T17:32:00.000-08:002009-02-14T17:32:00.000-08:00Sometime when you don't have an important marathon...Sometime when you don't have an important marathon coming up, you can experiment with a 100 mile week. There is nothing magical about it, although it is the level of aerobic training that Lydiard suggests (160 km/week).Andy Martinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03993472875693594985noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990493202278472393.post-15208744706513069802009-02-13T19:58:00.000-08:002009-02-13T19:58:00.000-08:00Just as I think about how to do a double so I can ...Just as I think about how to do a double so I can get in a hundred miles in a week you throw out "Singles". Go figure. I think you and I both know with family and work the doubles isn't likely and either is 100 miles per week.Ryan Altmanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03213046420972800440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3990493202278472393.post-82032487061258827602009-02-12T19:50:00.000-08:002009-02-12T19:50:00.000-08:00You know, since reading Running With The Buffaloes...You know, since reading Running With The Buffaloes a few years ago, I've occasionally thought about this very topic.<BR/><BR/>I completely understand both sides. For me, when I'm really putting in the big miles (120ish per week), I usually run 3 doubles, 1 medium day, 2 long days, and a rest day. On the 3 double days, my morning run is shorter and easier, and the afternoon run is either hill repeats, track stuff, or medium distance tempo. That whole weekly formula seems to work well for me.<BR/><BR/>Great points to consider (especially Lydiard's opinion on it).saschasdadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06920379008380900505noreply@blogger.com
