Reading Brad's comments, I almost forgot that the best American distance runner, Bernard Lagat, runs just 60 or so miles/week. It's as if Brad's forgets we compete in races below 2 hours duration....



Lagat says himself that he runs mid-70s, and he doesn't count warm-up and cool-down mileage. If he was counting like a normal American (20 up, 20 down = 5-6 depending) then he would be running 80-95.

So, actually, Lagat runs a decent chunk of mileage for a mid-d guy.
