I've been running for almost two years now. I've run several races, from a 1-mile race to the Marine Corps Marathon, and most distances in between. My next goal is to get fast, or at least faster. For the 10-mile race coming up, any suggestions for a good training regimen?

I'm no speedster, but I think the key will be to put some variety in your routine, particularly speed play and repeats. Here is a link that talks about fartlek running...http://www.brianmac.demon.co.uk/fartlek.htm Here's another on advanced training for 10K's...which will include info on speed work... http://www.runningplanet.com/articles/article_detail.asp?article_id=170 Good luck!
