September 10, 2017 (Morning)

Exercise Type: Run

Comments:
If weather is doable let's shoot for 12 but with a workout within it. If hurricane is bad, may have to wait for next week...

Run 2 miles easy
Run 3 miles at goal marathon pace (8:15is or 8:20's if terrain permits)
Run 1 mile easy
Run 3 miles at goal marathon pace or faster
Finish 3 easy not worrying about pace..

Be sure to keep the easy miles moving but significantly slower.
This is 6 miles of faster pace work so the recovery in between is essential even though you are still running...
. By adding in some faster running In the middle of the long run, you force recruitment of muscle fibers that generally are never trained at an easy or steady pace. So by changing pace you now train those fast twitch-type fibers under aerobic conditions, which therefore increases their endurance!!!!

Ok that's my kinesiology speel for the week;)
