I also struggle to do more than 8 in the morning, though I do it sometimes.
I think breaking up your weekday runs is okay as long as you get a continuous long run done on the weekends.

Tell me about the Run to WRigley!! That's my old neighborhood; might be worth a quick flight to Chicago.

Do tell about the run. When is it? I'll do it if I can arrange to be at home!
It's so hard to run a significant amount of miles in the morning. 6 is my max. That's why I run later! But it's good that you can get in 8!

Some of the best runners on the blog run two a day. You still get the volume for the week. I agree that at least one longer continuous run a week is important.

I would only have to split 1 maybe two runs a week. And that is only if for some reason I dn't run on Sunday and I have to move that run to during the week.
Run to Wrigley is a 5k, it is 35 bucks if you want to be times and 30 if you want it to be a fun run. You get a wicking shirt and it is April 24th.

It was tough for me to make the jump back to 10 miles in the mornings. I was doing 8's for a long time. I think I can thank Thaine for the extra incentive :)

WTF and the face that you are fast! My long runs are roughly around 10:30 to 11 minute miles on good days (which I have been having a lot of so I'm not complaining)

I like splitting my runs, I am feeling strong!!!
