Has anyone else noticed that, over the last couple of months, Clayton Murphy has been posting some very detailed workouts, with effort level and other info included? I have been seeing them mostly in Instagram stories. There's a little bit more detail than other pros seem to want to give. Kudos to Clayton. As a fan and mediocre training philosophizer, it's extremely cool to see.
I love Clayton and I'm local to Cleveland. I wish him nothing but the best. He did a trail race here a few months back and won by a ton, maybe he is getting ready for the next chapter of his cooperative life. I much prefer trails to track as a spectator sport so hope he makes that jump after the Olympics

sup Clayton! you know you don't have to use a different name and we all subscribe to your channel, right?
It's awesome to see him run the Cuyahoga Valley trails so much! I've spent a decent amount of time there myself and it is such a fun area to run and hike in.
at 29 and based on how his last olympics then budapest eroded, my guess is this is his last hurrah, and he's probably more concerned if he makes it or not, and less so anymore whether he gives out the trade secrets. might be wanting to transition to coach.
Gone are the days of wanting to copy training of C Murphy. Aged out boxers are more likely to resurrect their career than aged out 800m runners.
Definitely no one should pay attention to some of the top talent America has ever produced.
Also, maybe it's apples and oranges, but some people just have talent and can perform well when everyone else thinks they should have been long gone. I am predicting that Mike Tyson will knock Jake Paul out.
What will copying C Murphy's training do for (1:47.5 to 2:07.5) 800m runners on here? What T&F secrets do you think you will discover?
Middle distance runners were doing workouts: 50 yard, 100 yard, 1 furlong, 1/4 mile repeats for over 225 years. How many on here who are trying look at and copy C Murphy's workouts are capable of running faster 600 yards than Lon Myers, 19th Century sprinter and middle distance runner?
Rudolf Harbig was a 400/800 guy on cinder and heavy leather shoes, 1930-something, a low mileage guy. Maybe you guys should copy Lon Myers and Rudolf Harbig before you worry about copying C Murphy.
Eight-hundred meter runners train as hard as possible until chronic fatigue or partial or complete Achilles tears. Worrying about C Murphy's training will get you no where.

No one person can ever copy and duplicate another person's training. Or even their own.
Very strange historical rant for advocating against people enjoying an Instagram story.
