The old traditional high mileage models, doing predominantly long slow training sessions work to a point but often lead to a high incidence of injury, in fact over 90% of all marathon runners are injured every year according to studies. Injuries to knees rate high as do calf problems achilles, plantar fasciitis and more so is there a more effective way to train. Why does it work when you are young doing this high mileage system but often lead to problems as the miles and years pile up and is there a better way.
