I hadn't heard of the Hansons Method either. Last year, I started two runs a day once or twice a week. Unsurprisingly, it was easier on my body than running the same distance continuously. And I didn't feel as fatigued over all as my weekly mileage increased. My form was better, too.
But as to the big questions: Did I have as much endurance? Was I faster? I really don't know. I wasn't significantly slower.
I’ll take a look! 2x runs in a day sounds like a good way to get around that limit, although that would require finding the time to do 2x runs in a day :D
Here are some Hansons training plans for marathon and half-marathon:
