comment Running: How much should I speed train (% of total mileage)
I generally agree with John, but not this time :-) I'm not a certified trainer (not by a long shot), but on my running team, we usually recommend everybody to do some sort of interval training when they get past 5 km per trip. Absolutely not as organized as on you link above, but as fartlek the last 1 km just to get your HR up and to get some variation on the schedule... Please note that we do not have the weekly milage in the equation...

comment Finding the correct Marathon Pace
I know many run with negative splits, but I have also seen some very strong advice against this strategy (missing a reference right now). As far as I can see the common advice for non-competitive runner is to use even splits.

comment Finding the correct Marathon Pace
Whether you should have a constant pace or increase your pace underway, seems to be a longstanding debate with almost religious undertones :-) I prefer to keep my pace throughout the race where possible. And speed up the 2-3 kms if I have the energy for it.

comment What to do before a 5k? Race day advice
@w00t Primary because I want my bowels top be (almost) empty for the longer distances. If you have to visit a toilet during a race, then you ruin everything.
