    Thank you. I will continue with 1 long run of 1 hour.

    These days are definately my recovery days. But since I have very good general endurance I can handle good volume on extensive tempo. What volume should I aim for? less than 3000m?

    I will keep the speed slow so I will not be tired from the session. That means I will not push, just float. Any guidelines on how hard the effort should be? In effort, HF or other indicators?

    And these runs should be performed on soft surface right?

    I guess I am answering myself now. 🙂
