I have ben running for many years now and i am always interested in different ideas on training etc and with this in mind i would like to now the thoughts of the formulites regarding training for Fell/trail races around the distance of 12 miles.
I am now a V45 and due to injuries i limit myself to training every other day.
I have a 12 mile race in Spring and my present schedule is
long run 1.30 over moor/fells
hill run 70 mins (hills as hard as i can on the day) road
60 mins+, inc30- 40mins tempo run or hill work out
60mins .x/c run or road fartlek
Any ideas on how i can improve on this ?
Last year my longest runs were once a week for about 2 hrs,should i aim to increase this and also aim to fit a long run in mid week ?
