Subject: RE: Running drills for long distance Unlike swimming, you don't need drills to run long. You can do drills until you're bored mindless from hours and hours of practice, and yet you'll get instantly smoked by a similar-abilitied no-drill guy who added 10-15miles per week of run volume compared to yours.
You do, however need to run long to run long. Lots of easy aerobic miles are your best bet with gradual progressive rampup in weekly volume. Overall weekly run volume is more important than the length of the single run.
If you're also cycling at the same time, adjust the run-bike workload accordingly to how much you're hammering your legs. Edited by yazmaster 2013-07-16 4:27 PM
