i am half way through my marathon training, i run 5 days a week with one long run(16k +) and hill training ( 3k warm-up, 6 hills 3k cool-down) and fartlek.
my question is this past week i haven't ran because i was in a wedding ( too busy) and then i got sick. i know i probably lost approx 10% of my aerobic ability that i have gained, but what is the longest amount of time i can go not running before it becomes detrimental to my training plan? was a week too long? will i get it back quickly?
thanks...
