[quote=Anonymous]I've been running my entire life and my long runs are almost always slower than my medium runs or my short runs. I think I subconsciously do it to conserve my energy. I run 4 times a week. 1 track workout, where speed is the goal. 1 Saturday long run, where distance is the goal. 1 midweek run, usually on a hilly route where the object is just to run at a natural pace for 5-7 miles. And 1 Sunday run, the day after my long run, where the object is to run on tired legs and finish anyway. I agree with 11:25 - to improve your running, you have to be comfortable with discomfort. Not pain - discomfort. Increasing your pace can be uncomfortable. Increasing the mileage you can run can be uncomfortable. Running on tired legs or hills can be uncomfortable.[/quote]
