Running in blocks

Yenzehc

Is running in blocks or multiple days in a row better then everyother day .

Currently can run 4 miles at a 8:30 pace average.

What can i do to increase 1.5 mile time ? Currently clocking 12:10 and have basic in May...


Currently doing 5-6km run on lets say Monday i then do 1.5 mile best effort on Tuesday and Wednesday i do 5-6km  or simply follow C210K currently on week 9

I think its beneficial to have a couple of rest days per week. As for increasing 1.5 mile pace, try doing 100M sprints with a walk/jog recovery inbetween perhaps?
