    paul the builder: We all believe that training more = get faster, with weight loss as the by-product. Don't we?
    But using the oft-quoted 2sec/mile/lb - most of the change here can be explained by weight.
    Which is why I don't really buy the oft-quoted 2sec/mile/lb, to be honest.

    B Rubble: Agreed Paul. I don't diet so the weight loss is almost all due to the affect of increased training.

    paul the builder: Yes, but I mean - are you (we) faster because you did more training, or faster only because the increased training made us lighter? I can't believe the 2sec/mile/lb figure as a result of that thought experiment.
