NOP speed and hill session

It's a training stimulus.

You can include it on one of the days of the week.

Well, he's getting 3600m worth of work done at quicker than his 3000m pace. Don't think too much about it.

Both hills and grass offer lower impact than the road or track. I think this is just way to get in quality work at slightly above 3k speed/effort with less (or at least different) wear and tear than repeat 200s on the track. You could even do the 200's on grass barefoot Quenton Cassidy-style.

Correct! Resistance without adding stress or impact. Sprint power muscle group gets put into greater play with the incline and without the accelerated pace needed on a flat surface.

For optimal results, do not forget:

1) Salbutamol inhaler or Combivent prescription for your asthma

2) Thyroid prescription from Dr. Jeffrey Brown for both T4 and T3 (Alberto may tell you to CHANGE DOSES IF HE FEELS LIKE IT.)

3) Salmeterol (long-acting beta-2 agonist) with an inhaled corticosteroid

4) Calcitonin prescription to prevent stress fractures

5) Ambien prescription to help you sleep and have NICE DREAMS

6) Celecoxib prescription for your inflammation

7) Singulair prescription for your allergies

8) Intravenous L-carnitine injection before your run (Alberto says his protocol and dosages are great!!!)

9) nasal strip

10) Nike Hatâ„¢

11) Nike Speedy Duct Tapeâ„¢

12) Nike Darth Vader Maskâ„¢ (in Evil Black color)

13) Nike Underwearâ„¢

14) Nike Sleevesâ„¢

15) Nike Singletâ„¢

16) Nike Shortsâ„¢

17) Nike Socksâ„¢

18) Nike Shoesâ„¢

19) Nike Lawyersâ„¢

JUST DO IT BARRY FUDGE!!!

Subtle brag

Nike Oregon Project often (about once a week) has this workout: 10x200m at track/grass + 8x200m hills. Mo is running the 200m on grass on 29. Same effort in the hills. Can someone describe whats good about this workout?

And how can I (4:08miler) include this in my week?

to be good at running you need to practice running a lot and run at different speeds.

Correct and correct.

I will also add that you need variation in training to cope with variation in racing. Training at times needs to stimulate racing sensations. This is another example of how NOP emphases racing over times.

Stop saying that's 3000 pace it's closer to their mile pace duh

Who gives a rats arse. They all dope. Maybe not technically but they all use prescription medications to be become better athletes. Stop worshiping these guys. The only person I can see who might be clean is Jenkins, but it's just a matter of time before Alberto corrupts him as well. Centro, Rupp, Farah, Rowbury, Hassan, everyone is operating outside of the gray area.

its in the gray area...but still the dark side ;-)

I agree they have all benefitted from big PHARMA aids and these suspicious medical maladies (but wait, they can still run sub 27 for 10000m, I hope they don't have a disabled person license plate on their vehicle with all of these medical issues). Not sure about Hasay, I hope not anyway......time will tell.

You're an idiot. Thanks for sharing your unfounded opinion on Eric Jenkins too, that was cute. Evidence usually is the best way to assert a strong conviction like your post. Not based on your lame hunch and what you think an athlete is like in real life based on a couple of post-race interviews. You realize you formed your opinion because you like someone, not because of any actual facts. Reread what you wrote, its ridiculous.
