Yeah but if you train properly the miles add up.
And the people you mention are exceptions.
How many miles a week do the top athletes in the world run? That's correct, JS.
Your low mileage approach will work for a tiny minority but in most cases it will result in abject failure, as we have been seeing with Sammy Nyokaye.
Another example is Elisha Rotich. With your training he was just another 2:10 marathoner. Now, with a competent coach and proper training and mileage, he has won Paris in 2:04 with a very strong finish.
You just write your crap over and over again ! ;) Low mileage works for everyone but this with high mileage has become like a " brainwashing"...... ''the vast majority of the worlds elite do it so then it must be the only way.... ''.
Elisha wrote to me and asked how to run sub 2:09 ......I coached him for just 3 months and then he improved his marathon best time from 2:13:46 down to 2:10 :45 with an easy win in Nice -Cannes marathon 2016. He told me after the race he could have run faster that day if necessary.
Do not hijack more threads, please.
OP, choose wisely.
