Per Eric's plan, I did a 30 mile run last week. I was to stay in z1 - z3 and I walked a few times when I felt I needed it. I ended up doing the run in 5:21 minutes, a 10:42 average pace. This weekend, I had a 35 mile run, and per Eric's plan, the protocol was to run 40 minutes and walk 20 minutes every hour until I hit 35 miles. I ended up doing this in 6:25 minutes, a 10:59 average pace, and that was incorporating in 88 minutes of walking. Just like Eric said, I was able to run the 40 minutes strong, and the 20 minutes of walking gave me enough recovery time to do another strong 40 minutes. Thanks Eric.
