So what kind of pace are you running all these 7.6 mile runs? You should check out AndyBs blog. You and he are about the same age, hiegth, size, build, and both of you run very consistant milage. He usually hits 8 steady miles daily.

I ran St. George 2008 with him and he paced me to my first and only (so far) sub 3 marathon.

i stay in my endurance HR zone - nothing over 80% max, averaging 70%.

Pace ranges from 7:55 to 8:40, depending on timing after intensity workouts.

I usually do 2 intensity workouts each week. With bball and winter, I am just doing 1 per week through Jan...

thanx for the info on Andy B - I'll check it out.

I like your x-training format - it obviously works for you. Saw your post about max of 4 runs per week. What is your max avg weekly mileage? Do you limit this and do x-training because of your previous injury?

Yep, every time I start running 6 days a week, I seem to get injured. When I went sub 3 I did it on 4 days running and 2 days x training. I maxed out around 50 miles per week and most weeks was in the low to mid 40s.

I've done a few marathons maxing out in the 70s, but I seem to get injured when I do that. I do x train very intensly though. Effort wise it is always harder than I would go on an easy run.
