Re-read that part in the book last night and Daniels' states that you can choose a set value for each type of workout. So, the set value for E pace could be the middle value which is 1 point for every 5 minutes.

For example, if my VDOT is 50 and I run a 6 mile training run at 8 minute mile pace, which would take 48 minutes, how many points would this run equate to?

I would like to use daniels' intensity points system instead of using mileage as a target.

However,  to calculate your points you need to know the percentage of your VDOT which you were working at during the run, I dont understand how you work out the percentage relative to your runnning pace.

Was hoping someone could shed some light on this for me, thanks.

Was reading somewhere about block training to get the most from limited time. One system was 3 hards days followed by 2 easy/rest days, the cycle lasts four weeks. After the fourth week you have an easy week then repeat.
Where?

Is 3 consecutive hard days a recipe for injury?


Yes.

Any method to get the most from limited time is (IMHO) a recipe for injury. Get what you can safely from the time you have, and accept it.

However, if you've got the time to train for 3 days out of every 5, then you probably have time to train properly. Read this for some sound advice (first 3 posts)

It was on some internet site, I cant seem to find it now! That link you've posted seems like solid advice, thanks.
