  Yesterday at 55 years young I ran 26.6 miles zone 2 with an avg heart rate of 124 and a 22 hr garmin recovery window. Ran 6.4 miles today with a 12 hr recovery window and feel great! Tomorrow I&apos;ll do a 10 miler with an anticipated 14-15 hr recovery. Thanks Dr Maffetone for helping me to run more miles more often with little fatigue!

  These ideas were prevalent in the mid-70s when I started running. Long story short, I got up to 100 miles per week (give or take). I ran a sub-3 with no speed work other than four races from five miles to 10k. Once the boom came along, magazines like Runners World started publishing quick and dirty methods of running marathons or 10ks. Goodbye patience and &nbsp;long, ĵslow distance.

  The more I listen to Phil Maffetone the more I realize how great this inteview is. Maybe it was the weather or meeting of the stars but this has almost everything and is a moment the penny dropped for many people.

  Personal anecdote. I started running at age 31 and run sporadic 5ks. I am tired and feel like dying after each run because I push hard each time and still get mediocre times....<br><br>So I stepped back and started doing this type of training and now I shaved a full minute from my 5k pace, plus I feel great after the run to the point where I actually like running now!<br><br>It may seem contrary to the &quot;no pain no gain&quot; and &quot;stop being a pussy&quot; mantras but it works.

  Wish I would’ve known this 15 years ago. &nbsp;Would’ve saved me a lot of headaches and injuries. &nbsp;I blame the Rocky movies
