Is there any benefit for a high school distance runner to run just three days a week during the winter to get ready for outdoor track? Our head coach holding workouts just three days per week. I doubt many will run besides those three days. Seems it would be hard to improve endurance on just three days a week running about 30-45 min. steady runs.
Well why don't you organize runs the other 4 days of the week and maybe your team will actually run over the winter? God forbid anyone takes any initiative in anything these days.

And what do you think would happen with 0 days of running? To a a large extent more is better but any training is better than nothing.
One benefit is that you won't need to build a large trophy case.
I ran 4:21mile in high school doing about 3 days per week during the winter... focused on short hard hills and a short tempo hard 3 mile run...
