- THE 5 RUNS YOU MUST INCLUDE IN YOUR MARATHON PREP (or long-distance triathlon)

- If you give 10 chefs the same ingredients, you'll still get 10 different pizzas

#1 TEMPO RUN - at planned race pace or slightly faster

#2 ANAEROBIC RUN - track workouts, shorter tempo interval sessions, sprinting, hills

#3 BIG VOLUME MILEAGE RUN - accumulating large working mileage at faster pacing than race pace

#4 TIMED RUN - aka "cruise" - learn to listen to your body without forcing distance or pace

#5 MOST IMPORTANT RUN - Discipline required

- If this is foreign to you, HIRE A COACH!! 

- Don't simply GUESS at how you should be doing this on a weekly basis, or within a larger training block

- Appreciate all the support
