How do I get faster? I feel like my running progress has hit a plateau. Ran 13.2 miles this week, 4 times a week, 2 short runs and 2 long runs. My pace has dropped but it hasn’t been dropping like it has in previous weeks. I’m just being impatient, I know I have much more improvements coming, I just have to tell myself to wait for it to come rather than rush out to meet it and hurt myself.

I assume the rest of your form is correct? Hands not flopping around when you run and all that?
I find that varying the terrain I run on helps a lot. Over the fall I spent a lot of time running up and down bleachers, over and over and over. When I went back to running for distance, I seemed faster.
