Are any of Shorter's training logs available online? Or for that matter any info from him on his training. I've read a lot on here about what his weeks typically looked like but never with a link to anything legitimate so for all I know it could be hear say.
Try Fred Wilt.
From googling his name I'm guessing you mean "How They Train". Which edition would it be in though?
v2 is devoted to long distance guys. Shorter's Olympic Gold is interesting too.
Just found this interesting article. Not a bunch of training stuff but still interesting.

"Once, after an all-night party in Frankfurt, when a policeman refused to allow him and Moore to catnap on an airport bench, they went outside and located a plot of grass. Shorter took off his shirt, pulled his pajama top out of his suitcase, put it on, set his alarm clock down next to him on the grass, and he and Moore went to sleep for a few hours. When the alarm sounded, Shorter got up, took off his pajama top, put on his shirt, and he and Moore went to catch the plane."
Love the Vault. "Run with the Champions" (Bloom) has his weekly schedule.
from the 2nd page in the article, Frank says:
"...to me the object is not to beat someone, but merely to live up to your potential. If you do, then you will end up winning a lot..."
I made that my HS yearbook quote back in '77. I had the feeling it came from SI or his biography, but now I found it again.
