This is the hardest training schedule I've ever seen

The book lays out detailed training schedules for each specific time at a certain distance. For example, running a 20:30 5k. The schedules are daunting to say the least. But after whining about it for awhile I finally just did it. I found that I could complete the workouts and my times have improved. I like the way it specifies time per mile, distance, and type of workout for each day. We will see if my legs hold out.

Sequel to the Self Coached Runner

The material has aged as gracefully as a long distance runner! I passed along my copy of the original that is no longer in print and thought I would never see my training schedules again. Good news, they're back with additional insight for the serious training necessary to compete as we mature. It's like bumping into an old running partner.
