If you were offered four billion dollars to get a 32 min 5k guy down to 15 mins in 3 months trainin, what would you do?

why stop at 15 as long as we're not taking into account the reality that that time is beyond the genetic reach of most people?

I would take the money and tell him to ask the question on LRC. Then I'd go to Hawaii with Barack.

get his BMI right down

make an appointment with DR BROWN in houston to get his thyroid jacked up to the max

epo

training

is he going to be drug tested?

Buy a truckload of EPO

Beef for breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks!

15 minutes in the box/day. 1 pint of lard for lunch every day.

this^ He would get RIPPED and SHREDDED and impress the ladies

I would have his skin grafted onto the body of an average Kenyan.

One word - Robotics!

Give him a couple lines of blow before each workout and run him like a champ until he is faster.

(1) You have to find the right 32 minute guy and motivate him. You want a young guy, who is NOT a runner and who is a bit overweight. If your research indicates he used to be fast or that he has fast relatives all the better. Offer the guy 10 million if he is successful.

(2) Find the right coach, maybe a Bill Aris type. Offer him 8 million if he is successful. Then let him get him ready.

Or if you have to train the guy yourself

(3) One day for a long run every other weekend would be medium long one week longer long the other week (7 and 12) 2 days a week intervals.

(4)One long run without fueling to build capacity to burn fat. Pot smoking on weekends to relax him. I'd also make sure he looks d@mn good at race time (to build confidence).

....something like that.

I forgot. I'd buy him Merrill or Hoka running shoes.

What a cheap arse! 8 mill to do the impossible and you get 4 billion? If i was the coach I would train him to run a 15:01 just to fvck you over.

What would I do?

I'd chuckle and keep walking.

This is obviously a joke, but I will still answer the question! It's impossible! If his first 5 k took him 32 min, then he's beyond retrieve! EPO wont help even if you're juicing it 24/7.

It might be possible with an initial 18 min to 19 min guy, but even then the candidate has to be a talent. + The problem is that 3 months isn't that much, because you have to rest a lot too, if you want to improve. Gotta love all the answers though! ;)

Buy an alter g and underwater mill to allow crazy volume without stress fractures.

Ask for half up front for expenses.

Change my ne and disappear

Leave an iPhone and an app so he isn't cheated.
