Cycling cross training, and slow heavy resistance rehab 3 days/ week, together with a more patient approach, have been the best things to get back into running.

When we feel threatened, we avoid & protect
When we feel up to the challenge, we approach the task with curiosity and fortitude.

One of my favorite tools I learned from athletes I coached:
Let your mind go to a dark place in practice, then see if you can get out of it.
Instead of avoiding the doubts & insecurities, practice going there in a secure environment.
So you are ready on game day.

Density = Less recovery "space" between the work...
e.g. A 10K runner looking to run 40 min...
Intensity Phase = 10 x 800 @ 6:00 (3:00) i.e. running 3:45/k w/3 min recovery between each.
Density Phase = 4 x 1600 @ 7:00 (6:24) i.e. running 4:00/k w only 36s recovery between reps.

Always appreciate your training guidance, Alan. Can you explain what you mean by density? Is that exercise variety or something else? Thanks!
