“[A]s I implement Zone 2 training for doing distance running again I was lamenting not having done so for my 2013 marathon training. . . I thought I had. . … Looking back over the data however it is pretty clear that I did not.”

Worldwide #March150 Challenge - Lemmy.World

From Chris Toepker Worldwide #March150 - let’s Break Impossible, together Living at 60 degrees north, the March increase in sunlight is a big deal. We’ll get a renewed ~150 minutes, stretching just 9.5 hours of daylight to 12. In just a few weeks! To match this march of time, and to celebrate the sunny increase, I’m determined to run 150 miles (~240kms) between March 1 and 31. Maybe you’d like to do something similar? Try 150kms (~93 miles)? Or 150 minutes in the gym? Or, if you’re like Michael, breaking 150 boards in your martial arts practice? Of course, the increase in daylight is for those of us in the northern hemisphere. If you’re waving goodbye to that daylight across the global south, #March150 is still for you! Who’s with me?!

A Case for Fallow Seasons “As someone inclined to lament single unplanned days off from training, stories like those of Jim Ryun and Bernard Lagat rattle my sensibilities. They are good reminders that extended rest is productive. We cannot infinitely accrue fitness without stepping back.”

This was a surprise to me:

“While many newer distance runners tend to focus on flashy long runs, the distance of the longest run was not strongly correlated with a BQ. Comparing BQ runners and all other athletes, the distance of the longest run was 20 to 22 miles across each marathon. But, the base mileage was higher for BQ runners, bearing in mind that base volume matters more than the distance of any long run. BQ runners at CIM averaged 65 miles during their peak week, while the rest of the field averaged 50 mpw. Similarly, Chicago BQers averaged 57 miles during peak week, compared to the rest of the field’s 41 mpw peak week.”
