I'd like to increase my long run distance while keeping my weekly mileage the same, by of course, reducing the distance of the other runs.

I have no interest in racing.
What percentage of your total weekly mileage, is your long run? I read that according to Jack Daniels, 40% is supposed to be the highest. Anyone see any danger in 50%?
