Tribute to 02:20 Marathon

For all the questions I have about this thread I will definitely cut you guys some slack on the injury. Injuries happen in running and it sounds like this one was recognized and dealt with. A week of cross training isn’t the end of the world. Not sure why folks are focusing so much on a minor injury.

Another bump in the road?

Aborted 12-15x800m on Tuesday. Slava says it was because of tired calves (not enough recovery from cycling).

Then two easy runs. Don't know about today yet.

Minor setback, no worries

Hey Jan!

You have written on the forum today. Why are you ignoring this thread?

Slava, how are you?

Well......I`m not ignoring the thread , just wait for Slava to tell himself because a couple of bad elements don`t trust what I write. But the week has been good so far except on Tuesday at the plan with 12-15 x 800m gave only 6, 5 x 800m at that pace because Slava felt problems with calves after a lot of cycling. Then the easy runs went fine except he got some stomach problems and then a fine 15x 400m today at 69.8 sec average. Everything so far , so good!

Thanks for the reply.

I was worried he got injured again.

Good to know Slava is running well again.

How can anyone hire a coach that does this?

Why do you do this, Jan?

Don't be a stupid troll, please.

Let your coaching speak for yourself.

This spamming you do is ridiculous.

And if you tell me again it wasn't you, then that is just another lie from the lying Swede.

48th week (completed):

Mo: easy 60min @04:25, avg heart rate=135

easy spin 60min @109 bpm

Tu: track LT intervals 6.5x800 @02:30min, rests=1:25-1:44, avg heart rate=155, but calves gone...?

Decided to cut all cycling this week in order to recover calves.

We: easy run 50min @04:25, avg heart rate=135 (stomach issues, 2 times during running... Diarrhea ??)

Th: easy run 70min @04:24, avg heart rate=139 (ran on empty stomach, Diarrhea ...??)

Fr: rest (extreme heavy rain all day & night)

Sat: track 15x400 @69.8, rest=1:10-1:44. Did 15 due to ran on empty stomach (morning 3 times... Diarrhea ??)

Sun: long run 120min @04:28, avg heart rate=136

100min - ran with good technique (toe side, reduced cadence, increased stride length, dorsiflexed, high kick feet), last 20min ran almost wit heavy calves and not good technique (middle foot, no dorsiflexed, low kick feet)

Conclusions:

1) insoles further changed my running technique: I noticed increased stride length, reduced cadence from 180-185 to 175-177 for easy runs, higher feet kick, better dorsiflextion;

2) insoles put my feet on toe side;

3) negatives: due to new running technique I noticed some difficulties with my calves strength (as they were weak due to flat feet in the past and poor running technique)

49th week (next):

Mo: cycling: easy spin 60min @110bpm in order to recovery calves

Tu: easy 60min @04:20

We: track: 20x400 @71-72, rec w/120

Th: easy 70min @04:20-04:25

Fri: easy 60min @04:20

Sat: track: LT intervals 15x800 @02:36, rec w/120

Sun: off

You know what else is odd?

Slava gave these answers on two different threads:

Don't worry and be happy, anyway is all fake on Strava ?

Bump

This whole thread is one big troll.

It isn’t. Slava is on Strava and frequently updates etc. if this is a troll situation it is the most sophisticated trolling scheme of all time.

Hahaha! You are right "highhoppingworm" ! :) Not possible to fake this thread and now over 600 comments and now everything proved on Strava. The show goes on! We really hope there will be a marathon race in February as a first degree, but of course it`s a bit worrying with the covid situation and maybe canceled race. Whatever happens with that I hope Slava want to continue this journey together to a sub 2:20 marathon sooner or later.

Sure. That is why you lie all the time and apparently Canefis also gave contradicting answers.

Nothing against Slava, whether he is lying ir not. He is a guy training hard and I can respect that.

But you Jan, you are bad for T&F. At least as long as you continue to troll LRC with your lies and fake handles.

But go on, it's a free circus here and I'm enjoying the show from the Swedish clown :)

Just saw this on another thread:

Why do you do this?

It's embarrassing!

It's not mainly about how many miles you run in your training week, it's more about HOW you run your miles!

-Just majik! -

And now he has started making grandiose pronouncements just like Late runner Phil.

Has Canefis ever raced?
