Where're these track workouts coming from? I did some similar workouts before freshman year and my best race was last week of September. That's just my experience. If I were you I would still be logging some long slow miles with maybe a tempo or two to peak in November, but clearly what you do works so just keep on keepin on I guess. Good luck!

Hey Eric! It's true that I do more track workouts than recommended, however as a freshman thats seemed to be what works. I have always had my best race at state every year. Ha! In fact I am probably doing much less speed stuff than I have done in the past. Although this year I am wanting to be in peak shape by November, a coach I've started working with recently, Sean Maye, has been giving me my workouts and I plan on completing them as he says. Ha! But I definitely agree that it is not advised to go my route of off-season training, because it only seems to work for me. I also agree I need to run more miles as of right now, so I will look into that. Thanks Eric! Have a great summer, and see you in August!
