The Yasso 800s with a shorter recovery is good value as a session, even if not predictive.<br /><br />I'd stick with the easy running. Go even easier if need be. You're trying to do 3 hard sessions in the week (2 workouts and a fastish long run), which is a big ask. I'd tend to go very easy (Mona style) on the long run. Being long (in humidity) makes it hard anyway. A long run plus two workout sessions in the week is plenty.Ewenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01093209634556111656noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2158705902053871236.post-47375572046829502662010-06-21T04:14:50.725+08:002010-06-21T04:14:50.725+08:00what Epi said...

My 10.5km intervals the other week was similiar to the Buster session a little...just longer distances...The Yasso session keeps your speed ready and starts to work on the endurance you need to sustain sub 3 pace running for longer...So hopefully you will do the full 10x800m which a few of us did last year...<br />I do like the Buster session. Good one IMO! <br />off to a good start. Keep at it, and hopefully soon you will see the times come down. sounds like the weather is tough to do it in...alright enough from me hope thats helpful.trailblazer777https://www.blogger.com/profile/15260445561233341753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2158705902053871236.post-22306467638102706452010-06-20T21:43:04.362+08:002010-06-20T21:43:04.362+08:00I may have mentioned that at his camp, Mona mentio...I may have mentioned that at his camp, Mona mentioned he ran 90% of his weekly (180k) distance at easy pace, with one Mona fartlek and one rolling hills tempo run.Epihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09477381563587498137noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2158705902053871236.post-67337213651746417602010-06-20T20:25:14.692+08:002010-06-20T20:25:14.692+08:00To keep family-work-life balance, I only plan to m...To keep family-work-life balance, I only plan to max at around 90k, running 6 days a week.
