Has anyone experimented/used the build-up (blue, gold, etc.) plans in his book as a base training method? I will be having surgery soon, and it will require me to take 2-3 weeks off completely, and then another 1-2 before I can start really running. I was just curious if this may be a good way to get back into shape.

I used the Gold Plan I believe. The one that was the most advanced. I did 6 weeks base, then followed each of the 4 week mini-cylces. I cycle One, I replaced the (R)eps with Hill Repeats. Other than that, I pretty much kept things the same. I wanted to follow a plan that allowed me to stay in shape and prepare to do relatively well at a range of distances.
Is this something specific to the 2nd edition? I have been off for a couple of weeks and will be for another couple. I am doing my best to cross train and stay in shape, but would love to see a program laid out for returning to running. Ihave the 1st edition, but don't recall if this is in there.
I only have the second edition, but from what other people have said, I think that it's not in the first edition.
