There are different theories for racers and elite runners when compared to weekend warriors.
Roger Bannister broke the four minute barrier while attending med school, but he made every single workout an interval workout. If there were one way to make me hate running, it would be to make me run every single workout as intervals.
But for us weekenders, we need proper rest.
