Slava, how old are you out of curiosity?

After 2months will be 37.

Still plenty of time to improve! :) In 5 years 41( that season) and that`s still a very good age for marathoning. :)

You are talking about 2:09 for a 37 year old who has never ran a race in his life and started training this year?

Are you a complete idiot or do you enjoy fooling others, including the athletes you coach?

Take it easy man! )) I have never told he will run 2:09 of course........I only say you never know for sure and it`s not impossible out from other runners improvement in history.

Actual question not in reference to Canefis. Is there a case that anyone can think of where a runner picked up training at 37 or later and broke 2:10?

I’m just wondering how JS’s assault on the World Record is going. Like most of his stuff, it’s big talk with no substance.

I don't think so, but more importantly Canefis needs to find himself a decent coach. JS is obviously mentally unstable. I looked at his twitter posts yesterday and in one of them he actually says that he has found the Holy Grail of running.

He can't understand that this obsession with the 20x 400 120 bpm recovery means that the recoveries get longer which means Canefis is overtraining.

If you look at what good coaches do, it is always with appropriate pace and recovery.

How did you think now? ;)How can it be overtraining when the runner get`s the exact recovery needed after every rep at 5 k race pace???When you repeat the 20 x 400s over time the runners energy efficiency gets improved and recovery gets shorter. You can look what good coaches do, but the very best coach does it different))

....and what makes it even physically and practically proved is that the Ingebrigtsen´s PD Tjelta

agrees with me! :)

Prove it.

He’s running his 400s under 70s. So he’s in sub 14:30 shape?

We will back off a little and do 20 x 400 at 71-72 sec......equal to 15:00 at 5 k and 2:24 marathon.

Maybe I will have to adjust the pace a little slower. The nearest future training will tell me.......
