critique this weekly schedule for sub-3 training on 60mpw

It’s like every other field. You’re always learning new things. But the answer to your question is not rocket science. Most modern training systems place V02 max work EARLY in the schedule when it comes to the Marathon.

Cite please? This sounds like the kind of pseudo-science that is all over these boards. I want some studies that should what you have alleged as obvious fact.

This is just a simple statement of the principle of supercompensation, which has been the basic principle of every informed training plan for decades. As much as it's a good idea to question assumptions, being skeptical about well-established science is not actually useful.

Where is the science that is so well established? I want evidence that one gets faster from the recovery of the session, not the session itself. Thanks.
