So 24miler makes sense on a 70 mile week? That means that I am running 46 miles for the raining 6 days or less than 8 a day?


Read Daniels. He recommends an average of 25-30% of weekly mileage for long runs. 30% of 80 miles is 24, so a 24 on a 70 mile week (34%) would be pushing the envelope but possible.

A week might look like this:

M: 3 miles recovery
T: 12 miles easy
W: 8 miles easy
T: Workout
F: 3 miles easy
S: 10 miles easy
S: 24 miles easy

Not ideal but doable for those who insist on running marathons on lower mileage. Also I surely would not recommend a 24 miler every week for someone at this mielage range.
