This sounds obvious, but many runners train as hard as they can, while taking too little rest, or ignoring the warning signs of impending injury. When you plan your training, remember [[Supercompensation and Why exercise does not make you fit|Supercompensation]] and build in sufficient recovery time. Also, be prepared to modify the plan depending on how you respond to the training. If you are not responding to your training, it could be that you are not training enough, or because you are not resting enough. Think carefully to work out which situation you are in.
