Thanks for the vote of confidence on the 6:00 pace
It would be nice to be there. I have already started incorporating your advice. It makes sense and come to think about it, every time I have been hurt it is with excessive speed work. So I will boost my miles for now with the 10% rule and continue my speed workouts later.
The holding off on speed work is a new idea to me and has really rocked my running world. It is a great thing however, and I am grateful for this forum because I wouldn't have come up with that one on my own. By the way what's a stride? Don't laugh I know I should know that one.
