Since American coaches probably don't really know what it takes to run competitive international level marathon anymore (no more Sevenes, Squires, etc.), does anyone on this board know how to go about hiring a Japanese Marathon coach over e-mail, or something like it?
Would they want to? Would they be interested? What if you're willing to pay? Does anyone have any connections? If so, can you share?
Just a thought, but it'd be mighty interesting to share with the board the way the Japanese marathoners train. Better yet, a schedule, say aimed for New York or something like that.
They certainly know what they are doing far East. Behind Kenya, they are the best in mass numbers. I'd love to give it a try. Anyone with any info it would be greatly appreciated. Be nice to see how "connected" members on this board are.
Thanks.
