The greater your muscle endurance, the less fatigue you will experience towards the end of a long race and the more intensity you can handle while training.
Early season base training is a good conditioning phase with increasing volume and a mix of lower to moderate intensity days.
As you transition to late base season training, incorporating more moderate intensity days, while challenging yourself with power,
will help you target specific aerobic adaptations and lead to greater aerobic leg strength and muscular endurance.
Here's a little DPC guide on motivation and positive mental attitude, this should help get you through these types of sessions: http://www.directpowercoaching.com/motivation-and-pma/
