	Quote from Pammie on 9/7/2008 at 2:06 AM: However if you only run 3 days a week anything up to a third is good. 50% sounds a lot hee....if you run 3 days a week, the L/R would be at least a third. It's all based on how much you run and what your intent is. You should be able to finish it comfortably no matter what you choose to do.

	50% when I have a super-long run scheduled. 33% otherwise, usually. I've never been able to get it into the 25% or below range.
	Plotting revenge marathon. Maybe Napa.

	<30% is not practical for non-eliete runners if you want to preprare fro a marathon. You need to run at least one >20 mile long run but it is hard to run toatl weekly milage > 60 miles
