And much faster...and I don't recall seeing them ever doing 300s, especially the marathoners...
And the long runs are much shorter.
I wonder how this compares to Benji Durden's 90-100 mile weeks when he ran 2:10.
I would be very interested in seeing the details of McClendon's schedule. At least I think that was he name. Legend has it the guy was very injury prone, Bowerman was able to get him under four minutes in the mile with as little as 25 miles per week. Any body know?

TRAINING: Ken trains at 9AM and 3PM 6 days per week and one long run on the 7th day beginning in late AM. His longest ever run is 43 miles. Preferred racing frequency is once a month and dwindling. Ken's easy days are 3-5 mile jog in the morning and sometimes and easy three mile jog in the afternoon on Pre's Trail. The following workouts were done prior to the 1978 New York Marathon.
I'm looking at the identical paragraph in "How Road Racers Train" (1980), except that it says "Ken's easy days are a 5.5 - 8 mile jog in the morning and sometimes an easy three mile jog in the afternoon on Pre's Trail."
I've read this book but don't own it and I can't remember - what year does the book say this training is from?

I pulled that from the 1995 edition. Maybe Mr. Henderson did some editing in teh 15 years between editions.
Joe re-surveyed people who appeared in his first HRRT. If there is a difference it's because they told him something different in the second survey than the first. Kenny was also profiled in Fred Wilt's "How They Train" and that profile is not idsentical to either of the one's in Joe's books.
Bumping to give our Lord and savior Parker Stinson some ideas to go 2:11 in the thon.
