We never counted milage in the same eway as a lot of people do now when running under Bowerman.
A typical Bowerman winter week as I remember it would include 5 morning runs of 4-6 miles for most runners.
6-8 miles easy running Monday and Wednesday afternoons.
Tuesday would be 4-6 miles of interval/steady running and Thirsday 3-5 miles of some work similair to Tuesday but usually easier.
Saturday would often include some type of test effort and all together we often ran around 10 miles with some of it relatively hard.
On sundays we ran around 12 miles.
With warm ups and some jogging I think most of these weeks were around 70 miles.
As long as I stayed in Eugene I never saw BillB give Pre a workout. Pre was coached by Bill D as long as I was there (from the fall of 1970 to spring of 74). Bill B still was the headcoache but let Bill D coach most of the runners including Pre. Bill D's schedules were harder thab Bowermans.
Mainly the intervals were a lot tougher and the bacbone of Pre's running was to my knowlegde workouts like 6*1200m with 400m jogg as rest. In yhe fall we did some 10 miles with 4*3/4 miles included. These were extremely tough and we ran really hard on those. Pre seldom did this kind of work in winter/spring. But in the winter he did work like 3 miles of 40/30 200m's
As for Bowerman a middledistance coach and Dellinger more a long distance coach I agree. But there are two runners who could make a case for Bowermans longdistance coaching: Bowerman coached Dellinger, the most sucsessfull Oregon distance runner on the intermnational scene, and Kenny More always followed Bowerman's principles even when he coached himself.
Someone mentioned Lingren and myself on a picture in T&F N. That was Lindgren and my brother Arne.
