Today, I did my longest long run ever.
14 Miles.
And the amazing thing is that because I was maintaining such a low heart rate and a slow pace, I actually had lots of zip in my legs at the end of 13 miles. In fact, I took the last mile in at a much faster pace than the previous miles (while ignoring my heart rate).
The best part is that I don't feel tired, cranky or sore.
If this method of building an aerobic base works as well as others have described in increasing overall speed, I think I've stubled unto something great.

Maffetone shares a lot with Arthur Lydiard's approach. You're definitely on the right path.
