My body seems to do better with longer runs and then more rest rather than the same mileage everyday. I'm going to experiment with this as I prepare for the Newport marathon in June.

Crazy Windy this morning so I stayed inside to run.

Super easy 4 miler on treadmill to recover from workout yesterday. Everything felt really good.

HR got up to about 145 and then fluctuated between 140-145.

Looking for a 12-13 miler on Saturday...

It is interesting you say that today because I have found the same thing. My new plan is to run longer days 3 - 4 times a week, allowing for recovery in between. So far it has worked out this week as I feel fantastic and I've put in more miles already this week than in any week over the last 3 months.

Junie B. Jones(alias Craig),

With your penchant for running ultra distances that is probably going to be better for you. Glad your body is staying together for you!

I read once that George Sheehan still ran 60 miles a week in his old age, but he ran only 3 days a week! Three twenty milers a week! Can you imagine? That might be me one day. lol

seems to work for me so I'm gonna give it a try. Will probably only run 4 days a week still. Maybe 5 during marathon training.
