Run at least 200 MPW and do hard intervals 2x/day if you want to get better. Anything less is unacceptable, soldier.
At a recent Scottish Athletics seminar, Craig Mottram insisted that 100 a week was the way forward. Even if you were really tired hes said, get the miles in slowly. But get them in.
Sure it's not for everyone, but you won't know if you've never tried it. And as a poster said above, not just for a couple of weeks. An extended block of several weeks up followed by a week down, could well be the way forward, and is advocated by runners such as Ingrid Kristiansen.
it won't matter at all if you are wearing the typical over-engineered, bulky trainers
