Meb detailed his Boston 2014 training in RW. He is doing 9-day cycles (opposed to the traditional 1 week schedule) with 3 workouts (one being the long run). So in other words, for him, even the 3/week were too much.
That doesn't answer the question at all. Not all quality workouts are equally hard.
Sun = 12 easy
Mon = bootcamp
Tue = 45 min hard track workout
Wed = bootcamp
Thur = 45 min hard hill workout
Fri = 10 easy
Sat = tempo
No longs
I'll let you know how it works out... but I'm down 20 lbs and have a two pack (i.e., not yet a six pack).
Kenyans don't even do long runs.
My build up is as follows
Monday, AM: 8miles easy, PM: 10miles tempo with a warm up and cool down
Tuesday, AM: 8miles easy, PM: 13miles easy
Wednesday, AM: 8miles easy, PM: 5x5minutes w/ 3min recovery total run ~ 12miles
Thursday, AM: 8miles easy, PM: 18miles easy
Friday, AM: 8miles Easy, PM: 10miles tempo w/ warm up and cool down
Saturday, AM: 14miles easy, PM: 8miles easy
Sunday, AM: 22-26miles easy
Total: 150-160miles w/ 3 workouts a week
Stop complaining

partly.
however, since i have stopped to do weekly long runs due to suspicions (is it really that almighty?), i feel better. many medium runs at a good clip plus workouts works fine.
