If like OOP you find yourself constantly running until you're gasping for breath, you may hear people say that much zone 4 and 5 running can't be scaled up to 6 hours per week, or that you're likely to get burned out from that much high intensity. They claim you can't avoid running conversational pace or marathon pace forever, even if you get faster. They may even make weird suggestions about internal workouts or zone 2 boarding passes.
Ignore them all. Did Rocky run slow to get fast? Would Goggins listen to his watch when it says "high acute load", that you're "strained", or that your workout today should be rest because you've gone way too hard lately and didn't sleep well? No, Goggins would go until he got injured and then keep going
