This is interesting. I'd love to know a little more about what he means.

I keep seeing chatter about doing more easy runs. Somewhere I recently saw a suggestion that at least 80% of runs should be easy efforts. I'm trying to do a few of these, trying to keep my heart rate in the 140s, including walking if I need to. It's less wear on the body which I think has been helpful.
