That's not to say that there aren't differences of course, but most mainstream writers will be in a similar ballpark.

Velociraptor Jan 2020 7:39pm, 3 Jan 2020 44,606 posts	0 Velociraptor I have, Dill. I have a 10k in 2wks and then the half marathon in 10wks, and I'm going to run it, P&D or not.

chunkywizard Jan 2020 9:02pm, 3 Jan 2020 7,047 posts	0 chunkywizard Dill, on the half marathon plan I’ve got within 30 secs of my PB, it definitely gets you in shape. For a 10K I haven’t followed it, I tend to run a combo of track and parkrun to get me in shape for those. For me it’s all about speed endurance, I don’t need the miles.
