here in
Chicago states track and field 9-11 p.m., but instead there is baseball on. The WCs
were on 7-9 p.m.
I sat down at 8:58 p.m. to see a near empty stadium and hear the closing comments.

T&F was shown from 8-10 here in Eastern TZ. Schedule, like Mike's, had

I think the coverage is just fine. But, who is going to be watching if ESPN/ESPN2/ABC

Sorry to pile on at the end of a discussion many are surely tired of (and for the sake
of those of us on digest mode: PLEASE delete any portions of old messages that aren't
directly relevant to your reply). But there are several things along this thread that
I wanted to comment on:
1) First -
Even though it was delayed, I was impressed with the coverage of the
Steeple. I can't remember the last time I saw network coverage of a
steeplechase shown in its entirety - no commercials, no cut-away to other
events and come back for the last lap, just >8 minutes of top class
competition. W

The easiest workouts I have ever done have been longer intervals (most of
the time those are done near LT)
The hardest workouts I have ever done are hill repeats and sprint workouts
(150s, 200s, 300s).
The latter leave me sore, with an oxygen debt headache, and wiped out for 2
days.

My take is that it's not the back to back to back quality days that do
people in. What does people in is skipping the phases prior to that which
would the endurance and strength phases which prepare you to reap the
benefits of quality. At some point, you have to do the quality
work. Another
Perhaps it's how one defines quality workouts, but I know the group at the
FILA center was doing this a couple years ago:
-1 day with 25-40x1:00 on/1:00 off, with the "on" minutes at 3K-5K race
pace and the off minutes a notch or two faster thaneasy distance.
-1 day with 10-15km of long intervals
Mike, your last paragraph raises some good points.
The other day, one of my "keg party" buddies from High
School asked me:
"Schiefer, how in the hell did you go from 4:20 in the
mile to 3:41 for 1500m just 4 years later?"
I explained to him that it's all in raising the bar to
another level. I w

You are correct Ed, but it was only those 4 and they weren't back to back to

Fila/Rosa's care. A long progression run of 30-42k, up to 25 x 1:00/1:00

Ed,
That sonds a little more like it, though notice how you say a couple years
ago. Now its non-existent. Also, that looks like a good marathon
schedule... and probably one very similar to what the top guys in the world
are doing. However, there definitley would need to be more speed for a
You could be right. 35k, 25x1:00/1:00, rest, Flouspar Hill, Intervals. That
seems doable, but still hard as hell. All depends on how hard they really
ran the long run and the hill run. Hell, I wish I had a 90 minute hill
around here to run.

Alan,
I can't disagree with you're sentiments on "sprint" work more. 200 meter
strides are meant to work on your form. That is not sprint work. The one
with 100 meter recovery is harder? Are you kidding me? The one with 100
meter recovery is basically a fartlek (I run my recovery jogs rela

It also sounds like a very murky interpretation of what the electronic
blocks are supposed to be accomplishing. Are they to be relied upon or
not? If not, get rid of them or use them as an informational device only.
