You are reporting the following post to the moderators for review and possible removal from the forum Poster: Radical Ron Subject: RE: My goal of sub 4:00 1500-I will not stop until I reach my goal. Body: Todd, I agree with Jonesy on all points. My 5k times dropping is to me proof that the 20 minute tempos are working. I've been running all my tempos on the track. According to Daniel's, after warm-up the idea is to maintain an even pace at threshold level for the entire duration. Check out this site to figure your level of fitness and the recommended threshold per mile pace. http://www.runbayou.com/jackd.htm Running on the track really helps in this. I'm still averaging around 50mpw right now on mostly singles. It's been enough for me given my level of fitness. I hope to top out around 60+. I don't plan on running any race distances of more than 10k. I built my base for around 5-6 months before ever doing one interval, rep, or threshold run. Jonesy encouraged me to get with the track work at that time and it really was the right move. Also, I had to get off the pavement too. After 1 hour, my feet and knees were aching. I still run on the pavement during my night runs but not as much. Putting my feet in ICE water after a run has helped a lot too. Hit the submit button below if you want us to review the post.
