No summer workout should be BRUTAL. You can run a hard 5k race every three weeks or so.

While you should "Take a day off if you feel like *(^0$,"

"Going out and running 9 miles at 8:15 minute pace does nothing for a mid-distance to 5K guy."

Is absolutely wrong in every possible way. Actually you should run one or two of these extra slow runs every week. It is vital that you learn to make slow running easy. You need to check a couple of times a week to make sure. If going slow isn't easy, you need to figure out why.


Fine. Have fun sucking. If my old college coach knew I was running that slow at any time during the week, he would ask me if I planned on returning in the fall.

I'm not asking you to do several hard workouts, just ONE. Take away that one workout and race if you like.
