Good luck, I'm very interested to see how that goes for you. You've got some good natural speed to tap into. (Don't think I'll ever reach your 1500m PB!) I might join you for the Orion race - and Ladywell of course.
I'm currently on the reserve list for the A team in the Southern road relays on Sunday, due to some injury scares. Not sure how I feel about this, especially as I'm planning another big MP session at Battersea Park tomorrow. At least it's Sunday rather than Saturday, so an extra day for recovery. And if I'm promoted it will be a short leg instead of a long one, so the pain will be over quicker.

Interesting, be intruiged to see how it goes for you. I've stepped my mileage up massively this marathon cycle but my previous training was neither quality nor quantity so it's hard to say what's paying off (or currently whether it is paying off).

Nice article... Over the past couple of years I feel I've fallen into the trap of just running (and cycling) a mediocre number of junk miles. I'm just playing about with my schedule at the moment but I'm trying to be more disciplined about giving each session a focus.
I suspect I'll be aiming for something like 3x runs per week loosely based on a Jack Daniels plan (but currently Tuesday intervals, Thursday threshold, Weekend easy long run).

So after what feels like about 18 months / 2 years of aiming for about 45/50 miles a week and not really getting any faster I'm having a slight change. Inspired by this article I'm going to see what lower mileage but all slightly faster does for me. The target for the summer is a sub 16 5k at Orion Fast Friday and a sub 34 10k at Ladywell 1000. We'll see how this all goes.
