Yeah that's the deal you have to make with yourself. Less running...harder workouts. The first 1/3 of the workouts will generally be positive because they aren't too out of whack. The next 1/3 with leave you contemplating finding alternative activities to do with your time. The final 1/3 should be ok again.

Not to make them out to be so hard but if you simply power through you become a better runner in general because most workouts seem easier in the future.

In my experience if you do the workouts to pace...you hit your goal time almost without fail.
