Hi Folks.I am posting on here in order to get some advice on getting the most out of my training time. I currently train on a 2 week basis to suit around work. Week 1 -  Long run 10-12 m Monday then Speed work session on Tuesday (normally 10x400m

This is my first marathon and having started road/cross country in September from being a 400m sprinter for 5 years am finding the transition great fun. Us 'sprinters' always used to bark at the 'distance runners' hogging the track...but having

long and you're totalling 2400m anyway which probably would compensate for the long recovery.200m flat out - x by 2 and add 4 seconds = 400m race predictorThere is a really good 800m one -run a 400wait one minuterun a 400then have 10 mins off and do
