glad we made you think I have NEVER had to coach someone and tell them they run too slow and that we will speed up all their training. Too fast...... everybody else |

I think this is one area where sports science wins. The non-sports scientist wouldn't disagree with gravity, would they?

Thanks again for all your input. This thread is really great because it makes me more aware of my training structure and I'm also reading more on the subject. I've read an article today about the proportions of training paces that elite athletes do. The surprising finding was that many of them train more than 75% of their training easy. The importance of the high percentage of easy training was corroborated by a Spanish study where one half of the participants followed a training programme which was divided up 80/10/10 (below LT/at LT/over LT) while the other group did 70/20/10. At the end of the training period, the 80% easy group had improved their race times more that the 70% group. The article can be found here: running.competitor.com You wouldn't think that 10% difference would make such a difference but apparently it does. |

My mates won it. Inspired by them, we're not going to win Thunder Run next month. |

I thought it looked like a daft idea so avoided it completely. I shall take a similar approach with TR24 and anything else of a similar ilk.
