I remember reading a quote from an elite runner (maybe he was Kenyan?) on this site in the past year or so, saying something like, "the details of training don't really matter, as long as the training is hard".
Somebody out there must remember- who said this?
Thanks!
Are you Xfit in disguise?
"Muscular strength can be increased by training at any speed as long as the training is hard and progressive."

actually, I think it is a ridiculous thing to say. It is an attractive idea- I wish it were true- but it's not true, the details matter greatly, and therefore the coach/athlete need to be educated and continue learning, and the training needs to be individualized, etc.
But I still want to know who said it! And somebody knows- so tell us!
An African. Any African.
Geoffrey Mutai maybe.
no elite runner has posted here in the past year.

It wasn't a message board post. It was a quote that was featured somewhere on the home page. I tried to search for it and google for it and could not find it. Maybe it was Geoffrey Mutai.
