What is this program? I haven't seen it anywhere.

Hi, there was a link on the old Cool running Boards, but here it is ( copied and Pasted) The key component of this program is the one long run per week. It builds up endurance and lays the foundation for further progress. Weeks 1 - 3: Right now you are running 30 minutes a day, 3 days a week. Your weekly commitment of time is 90 minutes. Continue doing this for three weeks. Week 4: Run 30 minutes, 29 minutes, 35 minutes. Weekly total: 94 minutes Week 5: Run 30 minutes, 32 minutes, 38 minutes Weekly total: 100 minutes Week 6: Run 30 minutes, 33 minutes, 41 minutes Weekly total: 104 minutes Week 7: Run 30 minutes, 34 minutes, 45 minutes Weekly total: 109 minutes Week 8: Run 30 minutes, 36 minutes , 49 minute Weekly total: 115 minutes Week 9: Run 30 minutes, 38 minutes, 54 minutes Weekly total: 122 minutes Week 10: Run 30 minutes, 40 minutes, 60 minutes Weekly total: 130 minutes Good Luck, it's a GREAT training program, and a great next step after Couch to 5K Cheffy

So your long run is half of your weekly mileage and you wonder why you are tired? Tell me I read this wrong. And 20k a week? So are you only running 3 times a week? Do you even need a long run yet? Yeah. Just start by slowing down. The rest should be fairly straight forward.
