Moen was a 3rd tier XC skier before becoming a runner. Will his success spur on other XC skiers to transition to running? Could we see 100s of top class aerobic monsters now come from Norway, Sweden, and Finland dropping 2:04s or less? Is XC skiing more lucrative for winners of major events?
Cross country ski specialists have great VO2, etc, but this will not translate into world class running times, because most of those guys are around 6ft-6ft3inches, with weight to match, that is around 170 lbs or more, so really not economical to carry that kind of weight around. In cm and kg - that would be around 183-186, and around 75kg-80kg and even more. Not efficient.
Moen is the exception that proves the rule.

Sure, Petter Northug at 6'1" and 183 lbs at race shape has a huge disadvantage vs Moen who is 5'10' and 136 at race shape.
He is never running a 2:05 just as Moen is never benching 400. Just not the right body types. Solinsky and Vernon are/were the biggest long distance runners that I know of and they did not go past 10k.
Renato,
A few questions regarding Moens training. I know you've previously explained how he works out, but I'd like to ask you a specific question.
Moens former coach is known for his fondness of threshold running and threshold intervals. As far as I know Moen has religiously been running several threshold workouts/runs a week.
Have you changed anything about this? I know you've commented in the past that to improve threshold pace you have to go beyond it (in terms of lactate).
What levels of lactate does Moen usually have during workouts? What are his lactate levels during the hardest workouts, is it an all out intensity?
Thank you.
The Ingebrigtsens all started with XC Skiing. The most talented doesn't even do any sport anymore.
Any update on when this blood data will be officially published Renato, as you were suggesting?
So it seems like after the 2017 miracle year, Sondre's 2018 is not looking very bright due to "illness". He claimed on Twitter it was the "flu" for the Napoli HM DNS and now he mentions "two setbacks due to illness" for the World's HM DNS. It seems "things" are catching up with him...
Sondre has been sick. One of the problems with living in Iten during January/February is that flu and colds are widespread. Sondre will be back...

Didn't you say that as an athlete got fitter their Hb levels fell?
I think he said that hematocrit levels fall as athletes get fitter or when hemoglobin rises
That makes absolutely no sense, they are linked by a multiple of three.

There has also been an influenza epidemic in Europe this winter which has been quite virulent.
I know. Hopefully, like me, you managed to avoided all sickness this winter.

Wooow! JS, the new coach Goat!
I would guess he's an asthmatic Norwegian like most of their elite athletes.
I would guess you are a brainless idiot like most of LR posters

Hello Renato! :) Nice to see you look to be okey in corona time.I think and believe you don`t count me in among "the brainless idiots", lol ?
I know of course the factors behind your coaching of Sondre witch mainly led to his success.
I have communicated this before , but it can be a good reminder to "the brainless idiots" here at
LRC.
I chat with Sondre some time before you started to coach him. He`s a very talented runner and has been in the Norwegian top since he was 13-14 years of age. I tried to convince him that he needed to speed up his normal easy pace and also check the other speeds for perfect execution. He dismissed what I said in about the words : "I have been in Kenya over 20 times and I know it`s no hokus pokus to train correctly like the Kenyans....... " The rest is history now.......
Take care, :)

Hey Coach JS, there's an Irish guy plagiarising your work and training plans and selling it off to unknowing mormons in the US.
I think he picked you as he has the same initials but mostly because he likes your style.
Keep an eye on him here:
https://www.strava.com/discussions/club/187128/postsIt`s okey. The number of persons that will try to plagiat my training system will be much more in few years.
But it doesn`t bother me. They can`t plagiat my brain, and they don`t know exactly how it functions with
"inbuilt periodization " and so on.

LoL , what a smart guy this JS is! I just love his skill and eloquence.
Check this and reason.
so 2 yrs....and no where near his "magical" 2:05 lolz
