How come Amby Burfoot doesn't know who Jack Daniels is?
I suppose he would know of Jack Daniels, at least from the popularity of Daniels' books, training plans, and pace tables, without necessarily being aware of the intricasies of physiology.
Burfoot knows who Jack Daniels is. He was one of many athletes Daniel's was testing in the Big study Daniel's did in the lead up to the '68 Olympics.

Burfoot knows who Jack Daniels is. He was one of many athletes Daniel's was testing in the Big study Daniel's did in the lead up to the '68 Olympics.
And yet he's completely oblivious to JD's 1968 PhD thesis on running economy?
In other words he has no understanding of how it applies to sport even after 56 years?
Just like you he is stubbornly wilfully ignorant, but very opinionated nonetheless.

It's fairly basic stuff. We run faster by being more energy efficient. Why do 99% of runners not know this?
Yet that isn't what he concluded in his article. So the entire thread has a misconception of what his article says, by thinking he is effectively saying she's doping? So what is the argument about if everyone has the wrong end of the stick? You are a brainless cherry-picking literalist.
Translation, as usual you didn't understand something you read. If you read it.
You haven't read the subject of the thread, which is that he is saying she's a doper. The full article would be beyond you.

It wouldn't be the first time people jump onto a misconception, especially when it involves popular myths.
But what you are saying is that I should disregard the author of his own newsletter, because you understand what he wrote better than the one who wrote it?
Forgive me if I prefer to get the meaning straight from the horses mouth, rather than the jawbone of an ass.
Let's see if your stubborn enough to quadruple down on your own ignorance.
Here's the thread title, based on what he says in his article.
"Amby Burfoot says it out loud - Chepngetich is doping".
You haven't and no one else has disputed that is what he is claiming and that he spells this out in his article. If it wasn't so there would be nothing to discuss. You only show - again - that you generally have no idea what you are talking about - or what anyone else says for that matter. The lobotomy didn't work.
As promised, we turn our attention to this story, which broke last week, coinciding with the news that Lance Armstrong is coming out of retirement and will try to race the 2009 Tour de France. It’s…
Ed Coyle was Armstrong's Scientific front-man who used words like "mitochondrial efficiency" in his papers. Initially, obvious drug-use obfuscation drew consternation amongst the fraterneties which then turned in to derision and laughter at conference presentations.
Subsequently, the Armstrong camp turned to a Mumbai-based PR company called "Public Strategies" in an attempt to subdue informed internet chatter on the fora. This spectacularly backfired because it encouraged teammates / whistle-blowers to start talking.

Who could have predicted you would quadruple down on your ignorance. Big surprise.
I guess by "no one else" you are naturally excluding Amby Burfoot himself: "For the record, I didn't write that Chepngetich is/was doping."
Also note that writing something in a newsletter is not "saying it out loud".
Is he completely oblivious to that thesis? How do you know?
Because he doesn't understand the basic premise. We get faster by being more energy efficient. Why is this still a mystery to him and to you?
People like you fascinate me which is probably why I spend more time responding to them than I should. Anyway, you don't know me. Why would you presume to know what is and isn't a mystery to me? That we get faster by being more energy efficient is not even remotely a mystery to me. It's a really basic idea. I very much doubt it's a mystery to Amby either but have never discussed it with him.

A proper representative Endurance Performance Model can become complicated, putting it beyond the will (if not capacity) for most people to take the time and effort to learn about the various components and factors, and how they interact with each other.
Two factors in her favor are efficiency related: the shoes improve efficiency, as does having pacemakers the whole distance.
It's a traffic jam when you're already late A no-smoking sign on your cigarette break It's like ten thousand spoons when all you need is a knife It's meeting the man of my dreams And then meeting his beautiful wife
Isn't it ironic... don't you think A little too ironic
It's like rain on your wedding day It's a free ride when you've already paid It's the good advice that you just didn't take Who would've thought... it figures
I outflanked that coked-out condescending poster with a dual Alanis / Cicero reference, and then actually having context. That is conducting war by the art of combined arms.
No wonder folks like Amby shy away from engaging here.
