The best way to build strength and speed throughout your training program is to
run slower than you can. Sound funny? In both your daily runs and your long runs,
pick a pace that's about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes slower than your goal split time. Even
if you feel comfortable at a faster pace, take it easy and learn to enjoy the
slower running. This will allow your body to build the endurance it needs to run
that fast pace on race day.
