- Depends how much time you have to do them and to recover from them
- See above
- Yes, in cycles, following the boring 4 week pattern of increasing duration and then throwing a rest week in then lowering duration and upping intensity, rinse, repeat. Does depend on end goal though. I'm looking at racing 12hrs next year as I want to beat my PB so I might not dip the duration so much as do a slower build of intensity and increase the duration.
1 and 2 - If I'm pressed for time I'll use TRs silly short ones that are like 6min or something. Normally though my meat and potatoes is 2x10s, 2x20s, 2x30s cycled in blocks of intensity, as above.

@hippy What sort of sweetspot sessions would you (I) be looking at doing? How long should each block be and should I be increasing the length of them this time if the year?
Everything I read seems to contradict each other.
