How this Marathoner Runs 280km a week in Japan

Good catch up with Jake Barraclough (Ran to Japan), talking about how his training has changed since his last marathon (2h17m) at Gold Coast Australia. He's not running some huge weekly mileage here in Tokyo Japan!

Nice. Wish I had done something like this running in China about 10 years ago.

you think a 5k/10k block would be beneficial for jake in upping the vo2 max? i've been following jake for maybe the past year now on strava and i rarely see him do any 5k type work. even in this video he mentions he's been doing more speed work (reps no longer than 2k) but in the 7x2k workout, he's doing it at HM pace which roughly translates to threshold pace. threshold pace isnt really speed work. so if 3:05(ish) is his threshold, wouldnt 800m-1000m reps at 2:55/km (VO2 max effort) or even 400m repeats around 63-65 (anaerobic work) be solid for building his vo2 max? renato canova has talked about how a fast 10k is important for the marathon because if you're a fast 10k runner, the marathon pace isncomparison feels very slow. just my 2 cents and something i noticed from watching this video and the 7x2k video. i know jake has run a sub30 10k before but i dont know if he's dedicated 12 weeks to pure 5k/10k speed.

I missed the 0 in the thumbnail…28 km weeks was amateurish for this channel 😂
