Nice going with the high mileage. There are gains to be had there if you could keep it up.

I find my legs are heavy as Im trying to mix it up hill sprints, tempos, & speedwork. I'm keeping a very close eye on that fine line between fatiugue & injury. I've been told it is a good idea to introduce a low milage week every third week! What's your thoughts on this? Also any tips on easing the effects of heavy legs! Apart from loads of protien & sleep. Too many hours logged in the garden ain't doing me any favours I suppose, Like yourself a few weeks back :-)The underdoghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12798689508518527465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-7167477965628527252014-04-27T18:19:08.085+01:002014-04-27T18:19:08.085+01:00Well done sir on breaking 100+ miles in a normal r...Well done sir on breaking 100+ miles in a normal running week. Definitely good to know your limits. If you can keep at least 2-3 of the doubles it will more than likely boost your fitness and strengthen evening more the legs. Great mental training as you say as well.<br /><br />On a separate note you have reminded me to update my blog :-)Richard Shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06714527298987145965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13273897.post-91113790679424703622014-04-27T15:57:57.753+01:002014-04-27T15:57:57.753+01:00That's true about the family support.
