Ok this is a big one.
You've hit the mark on so many key workouts so the idea for this one is to really challenge above and beyond as it's the last long and demanding big one until race.

Warm up 1 mile easy

Run 2 miles at threshold pace (anything sub 11 would be ideal but ALWAYS depends on conditions. I reccomend you go by feel and don't even look at the pace until 2 miles is over)

Rest 2 to 3 min.

Run 2 miles again at threshold pace

Rest 2 to 3 min

Run 1 mile at same effort ast the 2x2.


Cooldown 1 mile for a total of 7 for the day...


The key to this workout is to keep the first two x two mile intervals controlled. Yes the goal is under 11 but effort is what's most important. I would rather you run the first two mikes at 11:15 pace and have the energy to finish workout than to be tanked by the second interval.
You can do this. If it's warm be sure to have fluids in between!!!
