75% to 90% is most definitely aerobic conditioning and not anaerobic, surely you understand that?
What is anaerobic capacity anyway? There are four different anaerobic pathways, and there is really no such thing as an anaerobic threshold.
To put it simply, the first lap of an 800m race is mostly anaerobic and the second is mostly aerobic. This is basic physiology, but most authors don't seem to realize or even care.

Call it fruit loops if you want, it doesn't matter. What matters is what he means when he uses these terms, and I defined them EXACTLY as they are in his book. In fact I have the book "Winning Running" open right in front of me. On page 67 he has the table that shows and defines these terms. I was correct in my original post when I stated what he means when he uses each term.
You can believe that you know more than Peter Coe and David Martin, that's fine. I'll take their word over yours though since Martin has a PhD and knows what he is talking about.
Next time you are so quick to correct someone you should probably take a look at what you're correcting so that you're not flat out wrong.
