I hope Valby doesn't go in the 5000m and just focus on the 10000m. I would love to see her go balls to the wall in one event and notch a big personal best. Hopefully all 3 Americans female 10000m runners set nice personal best at the Olympics.
Now then, a 14:40 has a VDOT of 71.4, with an equivalent 10k of 30:27, so it is not at all unreasonable to consider the possibility of Valby breaking the 30min in the 10000m within 2-3 years, under favorable conditions (and a lot of hard work.)
A lot of hard work? You mean she might have to run more than 30mpw?
You don't understand training. You think only running = hard work. You are a stupid misogynist who doesn't miss a chance to slander Parker and other girls. In August you will be watching Parker compete in Paris from your beer-stained couch in your lonely apartment. But hey! You will probably make it to 32,000 posts before the Games are over!

How many Kenyans and Ethiopians will be in medal contention at Paris on 30mpw running?
I just have a gut feeling Weini K. is going to do what she did at World X and go out with the leaders even if it's super fast. This time I believe she will hang on better (although she did great at World X); and have a great chance at 29:52 to 30:04 and definitely top 5 or 6.

Silly. Valby shouldn’t be expected to be in medal contention. Unreasonable expectation of her.

You assume he has left his mothers basement... bold assumption

Only a bold assumption to someone who hasn't left theirs.
Most posters love her. And you are correct that no runner will earn a medal in the 5k or 10k on low mileage.
...
She is very talented: however, she isn't Superwoman. There are hundreds of females who WONT MEDAL that's running high mileage and no other known female runner who could run sub 31mins off 30 mpw.

Count me as one who doesn’t believe she only runs 30 miles per week. She probably did that coming off of injury, mixed with a high volume of cross training, as they all do. She may not put in 80-90, but she probably gets a kick out of people thinking she still only runs 30. She recovers too fast from her races to still be at that low volume.

lol, what exactly did she gain by lying about her mileage.
