Subject: RE: Sub-4:10 mile - what was your training like?
Body:

I have just dipped under 4:10 a few times this year and the main reason is just many months of high quality training. Mileage is a big factor but each person is different. I think to get from 4:16 to 4:08 you might add about 10 miles/week. Anywhere from 60-70 is good for base training. Also increase your average running pace. All good runners I know average about 6:30 on their mileage day. Dont be afraid to take 1-2 days per week EASY or cross train, but push every other day. Do longer tempos and 6+ mile runs at around 5:40-5:50 pace. Then hit 400m repeats on the track in around 60-62.
