I agree with 1500Master. I think the 200's Henry ran show the most. He had to be a little tired from the morning work-out and the work-outs leading up to those 200s. It really depends on how tired he was for those and how rested he is on Sunday. I think the answer if it was a quiz might be what he averaged for the 200's that day. Good luck and have fun on Sunday Henry.
Henry- Looks like your right on track. Have a great run.
Cheers KM
5:48.1 for 1500 meters, Henry. GO for it!

J.R. has good intentions, and besides, I don't believe that Wejo really cares about ownership of material that he didn't create. When it comes down to it, it's Henry's material anyway (in spite of forum rules). A non-issue here.
I think 6:05-6:10 sounds pretty accurate at your fitness level Henry. I might just come down to see that race now that I'm feeling emotionally invested in your successes. Best of luck, and Godspeed.
I suggest 5:56 or 5:57.
ROCK ON!

6:05. Go Henry!
Maybe we should all hit the track and run a 1500 in solidarity with our Henry.

This thread has been a regular part of my morning reading for the last month. I love it; love the insight, love the old pros and long time letsrunners coming out of the woodwork, and I love the peculiar poetry of Henry Rono and his fascinating rejuvination - running through the moonlit hills of New Mexico.
As fortune would have it, I am between jobs for 6 weeks this summer (three to go) and have followed Henry's footsteps into the hills and arroyos near my home. I started out with 80 min runs at super-slo-mo pacing, reasoning that quantity was fine if intensity was inversely related (also b/c that's what Henry Rono was doing and I'm very impressionable to heros from my youth). I think I began with 12min. mile running, similar to a trot after track intervals - s l o w. It was quite nice to focus on my footfalls and balance rather than breathing and strain.
In two weeks I've worked up to 120min runs. My pace has fallen to about 9-10 min. miles but the effort feels the same. I'm up from 8 miles per week to 40. Little strains in my achilles and knees have popped up but are eased away with stretching and swimming. I feel my strength and endurance growing, but there is little fatigue in my legs due to such moderate pacing. Interestingly, as Mr. Rono's writings attest, very little weight has come off - maybe one pound - even though my fitness has improved greatly.
I wish I had learned to run like this years ago rather than with the fleet-footed stubborness that sidelined me so often in life with impatient injuries. My focus is not on any training or upcoming competition, but on my time during the run itself. All very gratifying - just like my time spent reading through this thread.
Great post!
I am currently experiencing a similar path so can relate 100%.
Henry-you will easily go under 6. Good luck!

If you take today (Saturday) off.... 5:33!
I will take a leap of faith, since I now check this thread daily, and say Henry will pop 5:22.2.
To Braavo Furgi,
I will run no minutes todays,until tomorrow morning when I will warm-up really-really hard to the max-wait all-day until 6pm evening UNM, then warm-up again then hit it hard the 1500m -Then,What will be the time?
Henry
If you run under six minute pace it will a huge effort.
Henry,
Thanks for getting me back in the hills, I am loving to run them, and for showing us your fabulous perspective of training. All the best with your time trial and your running.

5:33!
I'm going to second the 5:33 time - ambition, but with others running and considering he's run 6:20 pace 1500 m in pratice - i think there's some room to jump up the time.
To Jerry
My prediction will come out after the race.I have three predictiing times. I want you to guest them,nothing in six minutes.What are those times will be?
Do have any-idea how I could find the dispearing pages from 24-84? I have the rest print-out.
If I could find the other pages will be a book by tomorrow because I want to all my papers by tomorrow evening and get ready for the seven week on monday phase II training.
Anybody knows how to get the dispearing pages on the thread? I\'m in front of public community lab now and I can print-out the pages easily, please let me know.
Henry

I was able to go through google's cache, and retrieve the old thread up to 7/5/2006, around 7 pm (page 37 of the old thread). There's still about a weeks worth of posts that were never cached by google though, (7/5-7/11) which I couldn't retrieve. Someone let me know if they have webspace where they can share them publicly, and I will send them along via email.
hubitron & Henry: For 7/1 to 7/5 you can bring each of those pages on your screen, one at a time... "copy" each page.... "paste" the copy into a new post here... 7/1 to 7/5 must be...what 5 pages?... Then only a week will be missing, and someone else may find those cache files on their computer?
