How much running do you do in the week leading up to a race you want to do well in? I can't work out what works best for me. On some occasions I've run better after a week of not running at all, sometimes I've felt better in races that have followed a race the night before.
Too much running definitely causes problems as my legs feel like lead, but how do you know how much/how often to run? I can never decide whether I'm overdoing it or not doing enough. I'm presuming there's no fixed right or wrong answer here, but I'd be interested to know what other people do/think.
