HA HA HA!! I LOVE you MARIUS!!!! Trackhead?s MISSION in life is to say that Coe ran 90-100 miles a week. He REFUSES to believe that Coe ran no more than the 40-60 range reported for most of his life, despite 100?s of facts that say it is true (quotes from Seb, quotes from his Dad, quotes from Horwill, books on the subject, etc, etc, etc). In fact, I believe that some in old threads trackhead would even QUOTE MARIUS saying that Marius backed him up on his ?Coe-ran-90+ -per-week? hardcore belief. Isn?t that true>
Trackhead, WHAT IS YOUR DEAL ON THIS??? Seriously, even before you asked Snell, you have believed the reported Coe mileage #?s HAD TO BE low. Why can?t you except that he was a LOWER MILEAGE runner compared to most world class milers? WHY??
There is no way you are right here. OF COURSE Snell wants to believe that Coe ran more miles since the reality of low-mileage success flies in the face of his & Saint Lydiard?s theories. I mean, I have to explain that to you?
And even if it is true that somehow one or 2 weeks in Seb?s life, he ran 90 miles after counting every step of his warm-ups, cool-downs, walks to the bathroom, and walks to the car, and that is what is what you heard his Dad saying, that does NOT reflect his normal weekly base miles over his career. And I base that statement on hundreds of quotes from Horwill, Peter Coe, Seb Coe, and now Marius. They were not all misleading us.
So who is right here? It?s not you.
And if you want to talk about lack of aerobic development, as I proved to you before, Snell slowed MORE than Coe did when you compare their best 800 to their best 1500 mile. Do the math.
Give it up man, GIVE IT UP.
