IMO you’re wrong about picking up intensity if your body feels great that day. AGers are juggling work and often kids, getting poor sleep, recovery suffers massively etc. often the days you have to up the intensity you’re fried and at times have to scale back intensity. Life often dictates when you’re fresh enough to send a solid workout. Those are opportunities to capitalise on. Listening to your body is important. But that is a two way street not a one way street as you’re implying here. It doesn’t mean if you feel great you send it everyday. The volume of intensity per week doesn’t change. But moving sessions around based on how you feel is super important and it’s something coaches need to encourage not discourage. Teach their athletes how to manage their own schedule to some degree to allow some autonomy based on how you feel that day. Running easy on a day you could’ve had one of your best runs of your life only to turn up to your hard run two days later feeling like absolute ass, is a missed opportunity.

Not sure if Laidlow is a good example, he has a high dnf rate

[@boyddi7365]

A high DNF rate doesn't mean you're not a good example; a DNF, for some reason prevent damage for next race
