Consider this when trying to pile on the mileage! https://t.co/wMsdfmcoU5

[Trent Stellingwerff, PhD / CSEP-CEP / FACSM / ChPC @TStellingwerff]

First, there is nothing 'magical' about running 100 mile weeks (other than, pumping your own ego). That said, the neuromuscular load involved in running 100mile weeks in faster vs. slower runners (eg. semi-elite male vs. female) can be profound, and is often not considered.

@gregclimbs @Garmin We use Suunto. I have 10 year old watch that just records, no specific sports mode. Eric uses new Suunto and I think he records in running mode. I personally don't care much about recording as what matters is only what happens in the moment ;)
