In the last week of so, I've tried to start to make a change to the way I approach my running. I've spent the last two winters doing reasonably high mileage, as big days out. All long days, at a slow pace. While this has been great and got me fit enough for my BG, it isn't helping me in races. So I've been trying to get into my head that less is more. my runs need to be about quality not quantity. This has coinsided with the approach of Christmas (time seems to disappear in socialising and shopping!), very dark nights, snow and ice, and also P wanting to do a bit of running too.
In 5 days I've run only 22 miles (see there I go again), but two of these were structured interval sessions - mile reps and hill reps, one was a tempo fell run and another was a steady road run. Also riden to work and back on a dry non-icy day! Question is can i keep this up and not revert to thinking long is good!
