Run Durability and Run Testing

How often should we be doing run tests while we are in the run durability plan? Should we do one at the beginning of each phase (e.g. Run durability 1, Run Durability 2, etc)?

    I don’t know if this is the official run durability stance, but for the purposes of vdot calculation, every 6 weeks is optimal.  

    Or, just find a 5 or 10k that floats your boat at any given time, and see where that lands you.  At this time of the year and ATP, I think there more value in keeping it loose and unstructured ... there’s lots of time for highly structured training (and corresponding testing) in OS and build.
