Couch may be exaggerating but that is where I am starting after a year of no running. Never run more than 55 miles in a week before when I was and currently out of shape but want to see what would happen if I started running 100mpw. I'm 28, 6 foot 2 and weigh 147lbs. PR's are slow with 39 minute 10k and 3:12 marathon. Have not had serious injury and want to try out this fabled letsrun thought experiment. What can the average healthy male run if seriously trained?
Experiment starts Monday with a build-up to 100mpw by the end of the year for a spring marathon.
