Summary of links for the "BarryP Program" at Slowtwitch

I've made some good gains this past winter by simply running consistently. If you run consistently at a moderate pace, you will consistently make moderate gains.  Read this post for my proof -- that standard 10k run is now down to 47:30, by the way.

Anyway, here's the list of posts/articles written by BarryP and posted at Slowtwitch. Take the time to read them if you want to improve your running. I didn't do that program 100%, but it was the sole inspiration for becoming at least somewhat more consistent in running.

I also recommend increasing your swim volume to improve your run. Add an extra 500 yards per workout. That's only an extra 10 minutes or so, and you'll should see big improvements. What's the easiest way to find that 10 minutes? Practice fast transitions on a daily basis....get in and out of the locker room as fast as possible.
