Skah characterized Norwegians in general as "softer" and more concerned about heart rates than Africans. He looks at heart rate monitors as unessential in training and made it clear that Moroccan runners do not use them....

I can confirm that Skah presented this stuff at a meeting

for coaches in Norway a few years ago.

He ran around 200km/week at his peak.

It's the accumulated training that counts.

Longruns of 1.30-2hrs will contribute greatly if your weekly mileage is low. If you running 200k a week it doesn't matter unless you are a marathoner.
