Jakob Ingebrigtsen: Measures higher treshold than ever before - between 21-22 km/h (half marathon under 1h as 18y)

Maybe they should get out more. He isn't exactly going to run a great 5k anytime soon.

He already did. Another poster answered this for you:

"So, he has this advantage of hardly even developing lactate at lower speeds and about the 13:17, that is nowhere near his 2018 capacity. He ran that time in a Euro champ race where he closed in 60 and faster, but he also medaled at World Junior's, beating a certain 12:43 guy, and running a very fast close to 13:20. He could almost certainly have gone 12:50s in Brussels in that race."

Also, watch the video. He is completely wrecked after a short progression to 21km/h. You think that's his 60-minute threshold?

lololololol

Did you not see the incline the treadmill was set on? And where did you get 21 km/h from?

OK.

Tell me when Jakob runs 59.

Until then, I win.

darned Kenyans

While you should also always be suspicious of Norway or any country for that matter. But there is a very long distance between Tromso and Sandnes, so this is most likely irrelevant.

Of course. Because in your part of the world mail is delivered on foot by one-legged sloths.

Idiot.

Your posts are irrelevant.

anyone here still complaining about not being impressed by him after Tokyo?

You should probably learn how to use capitals and how to structure sentences correctly. You write like a baby and the OP, from that perspective, has a better command of English than you do as his sentences are more complex.

Its the usual hatred/jealousy of Scandinavians on here...

Seriously?

You show all the grace of a constipated snake.

BTW: Don't criticize the English of someone when you can't even spell it.

This is interesting. So for a session of 400 repeats are they running say around 5k pace? For kilometers around 10k pace? For 2 kilometers around 15k pace? Being able to run different paces but still stay under threshold seems to be the key imo.

In contrast whenever I’ve lined up for repeat 400s the coach always pushed mile pace. Whenever I’ve lined up for Kilometers the coach pushed 5k pace. These are hard workouts. But instead we could of run those paces for shorter Intercessions which would keep us under threshold. Thus in the long term improving our aerobic capacity to a greater degree?

Yes and the main reason for doing it that way is that you can run more at faster paces without requiring extra recovery. If I've run 10x1k in a session, I can feel a difference in my legs if I've kept it under or over LT.

It's about working on the aerobic system but also about stringing consistent days and weeks and months of good quality training together without needing days off and sub-par workouts.

I'm the one who's sorry, cause I quoted the wrong guy. You never committed the crime I accused you for.

All this high tech mumble jumble a out advanced training techniques reeks of sky sports and cycling.

Everyone is aware that Kipchoge's marathon WR is at 2:53/K pace or 20.8kph right? So his vLT is obviously greater than that! FFS.

Maybe there's a reason he never coached an athlete to the world-class level.

What matters is lactate levels at given paces.

maybe this is why his team has severe injury levels.
