I think a long run to be over 15 miles in length. When the length starts forthcoming 20 miles even more pressure is added to your training. I prefer to run long runs two weeks in a row. Inactive the third week and taking one extra day of total rest.
The subsequently notorious topic is how far to run? My own knowledge from running 10 marathons has trained me that I need to run one 21 or 23 mile long run in training about three weeks before the actual race. I advocate this because, of the self-confidence that I gain and the time spent on my feet. Every time I tried to run just 20 mile long runs I always hit the wall at 20 miles. Going beyond 20 miles and growing to 23 or 24 miles always prevented the wall form happening.
Pacing for marathon long runs should be very at ease. The cause for your marathon long runs is merely aerobic. Other aspects of your marathon training will address marathon pacing etc. I advise using a heart rate monitor for all training, especially during long runs. Keep your heart rate below 75% of maximum. Going above 75% will lengthen the revival time of your long run.
How many long runs? I favor to train 10 weeks for a marathon. I don't think training plans less than this are very efficient. The body needs time to become familiar and become stronger. Most injuries incurred during shorter training plans are caused by adding to much stress in a short amount of time.
I will not begin my marathon training until I have ended training for a half marathon in the early spring. After running a half marathon my long runs will be over 15 miles. This is a good point to start adding runs over 18 miles. I will try to run 6 or 7 long runs of 20 miles during marathon training. My earlier long run of 23 or 24 miles will be done three weeks faster than marathon race day. Then I will start my come to a point.
