I think an important part of my training is hip strengthening. I use Jay Johnson's strength and mobility. Helps with IT band and hip issues.
1. Rest days
2. A realistic healthy diet
3. Some off time after a full season
4. Yes sleep is important too
Parents/genetics
1. Vaporfly's

4. Trucker hat
5. Rungum

Your obsession with genetics seems like a way for you to justify to yourself your lack of commitment and belief in the training program.
Just train hard and smart and stop blaming genetics for poor running performances all over the boards.
eating well and eating enough. If I forget to eat enough the night before a big workout, I notice a decreased performance and energy.
SLEEP!

What about stretching / massage. Does it even matter?
I just ran. I thought that if I had the time and energy to do other stuff it meant I hadn't run enough. That extended to cooking or thinking about food. I mostly ate frozen pizzas and sandwiches. I did find that drinking a lot of beer seemed to help with recovery.

No surprise, that you plateaued very early. Frozen pizzas and sandwiches are not good food for runners.
1) Diet
2) Diet
3) Diet
4) Sleep (diet-dependent)
5) Easy and recovery days
I plateaued early? Didn't know that. I'd been running for 14 years when I got most of my lifetime bests. And why would a sandwich not be good for runners?
Did Shaque's parents produce a great potential runner?
Sex. It's the principle of specificity. What do you want to be good at? Run more and ... Well... You know.

Yep. With doubles and a full time job, you don't have time to do supplemental stuff and even cook most days. If I run right away after work, I have like 2 hours left in my day after my second run at most.
Am I living in the twilight zone? The Boston Marathon weather was terrible!
