I could see you getting injured pretty quickly like that. The impact forces are absorbed directly by the bones when the muscles are fatigued and can't distribute the load.

It's just a general outline.<BR/><BR/>Nobby wrote the article I mentioned. <BR/><BR/>Ryan, I tend to do the training and then see where I'm at before honing in on a specific goal time. Of course 2:55 is still out there. Maybe a good winter would get me to the low 2:50s. <BR/><BR/>I can't really see going from 3:00 to 2:45 in the span of 8 months. Maybe if I'd run 3:00 on minimal training, but I put in some solid work to run 3:00. <BR/><BR/>No, I'm not going to Boston in '07. Maybe '08 so I can watch the Women's Oly Trials too.Chadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08412073727859282887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-1163684740404326352006-11-16T07:45:00.000-06:002006-11-16T07:45:00.000-06:00Also, where are you getting the MP+20, MP+40 stuff...Also, where are you getting the MP+20, MP+40 stuff? It's not in the discussion on Mike's site, but it ended up in the part you quoted.

Is it a sub 2:45 at Grandma's? I was just reading Andrew's blog and it seems as if you should share schedules.

And I'd like to have the same mileage targets as well, though those numbers sound a little scary right now. My foot is hurting less today so I'm feeling all gung-ho about getting started on it. I think you and I respond similarly to training, so it's interesting to be on basically the same schedule. Are you planning on Grandma's in June? Right now that's probably my first choice for my next marathon.Chellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15023821306796377812noreply@blogger.com
