I also think I am going to revise my workout plan and start doing all leg stuff on one day per week. I have squats scheduled tonight, but my legs are fatigued from yesterday's long run. Maybe if I was 21 I could follow a 15-mile run with heavy squatting, but I don't think it's optimal for me. Generally, I don't like having squats and deads on the same day, because one compromises the other, but I believe that is what I am going to start doing anyway. I can alternate which of the two I do first each week. Also, it will be better for my running to have only one leg-crushing workout per week instead of two. There's no denying the muscle soreness and fatigue from squats and deads and the impact it has for 1-2 days on my running.
