critique training cycle-10k cross country

repeat the cycle after the down week (or very similar workouts)

When in the season would this be?

pretty much would run from the start of school (mostly just mileage and strides over the summer) till conference so mid august to late october)

starting around conference start steadily decreasing mileage to the 50s and incorporate some faster stuff into some of the workouts (same basic pattern though)

Looks like a recipe for staleness to me, especially if that is what you would be doing all season.

A 10 mile run at threshold pace is almost like saying "10 mile race". I think that workout is way too hard for the frequency that you would be using it. I think you would do something like that once, maybe twice per season. If you meant 10 miles hard but controlled (steady state), that is another story.

I'd like to see some hill repeats in there and also maybe a little bit of work at 1500 race pace (I suppose that is what the strides are for, though).

I like it for the most part, hills are a good idea id replace one or even both of the 400 repeat sessions with the same quantity of hills
