If you have some talent, any race 8k or under you can run very competitively off 35-40 miles a wk and 2 workouts per week. Change my mind.
I won`t try to change your mind but add that you can even run races competitively at races beyond 8 k off 35-40 mpw and 2 workouts per week.

JS has just admitted on another thread that you need 50mpw to be average and approaching 100 to be competitive.
I thought we were making some progress with his misrepresentations, but here he is again, depsite being shown wrong just this morning.
I am sure most people can enter their local 10k + road races and be mid pack at 35-40 and 2 workouts, and the really talented ones will find themselves looking promising in club competitions, but they will realize that if they want to up their game and reach their true potential, they need to start being serious.

More miles = more mitochondria = bigger engine
Which generally means faster running.
More miles = bigger Mitochondria = better recovery, but same size engine.
