On the AIS track in Canberra.
Anyone know if there is documentary on Deeks' career? Great runner.
Great doco on Deeks and Salazar. A lot of race footage.
The video is actually uploaded by the great runner Jon Brown.
Is there any coverage of Deeks' 1986 Boston win?

Rob was incredibly efficient after 15 minutes of running....ie his warm up was 8 min mile pace!
After that he was a machine. Very lucky to have been hammered by him on runs 25 years ago.
Deek's torso perfectly balanced over his hips. Legs moving beautifully under his hips. Arms held low but effective (almost as if for balance/ballast.
I wouldn't/couldn't replicate it, but I certainly wouldn't criticize it.
U???????????????
Bill Rodgers coach once wanted him to change his "not correct" swinging arm …...Bill ran worse than ever with the change…..back to swinging he ran great again. It was his body`s natural way of perfect balance. Never change a winning team..... ))

Isn't your whole idea based on change?

But could have Deeks run faster or the change if there was any improvement would be insignificant?
