Damn, any insight to his training? I know he's a talent, but how does he keep his power, speed, health, etc.

He probably uses Hadd and POSE. Maybe a bit of CF too.

You know the answer
If you are interested in supreme masters performances you should look into the story of Mark Gomes. He is a man who was very talented at Northeastern University in the 1980's running low 2:24 for 1000m, 1:52 for 800m and 3:53 1500m. Mark left the sport and eventually returned at the age of 40, and he wrote a book faster than forty which outlines his return to running and the methods he used to get faster. Recently Mark was a member of the USA masters 4X400 team that won the penn relays where he split 48.8 at the age of 45. So while I don't know about Anthony Whiteman, I do know about Mark Gomes and I do know that he has published about his training.

From the Masters Milers Facebook group;
Having a cold snap here in the UK just above freezing and some snow flurries but the Sun came out and managed to run the following session........
The group was doing 3 by 600m with 15 mins rest and cant handle more that 6/7 mins of rest or 2 laps jog before i get bored, so.....
600 (89.5) 2 mins rec 4 by 200 in 29s with 200 jog
7 mins rec
600 (89.6) 2 mins rec 4 by 200 in 27/28 with 200 jog
7 mins rec
600 (83.3)
No holding back on that last rep!

Great stuff, assuming he isn't on any prescription drugs that helps him keep his power, speed, health, as you may know what I mean, this gives people on let's run who are a decade out of college competitive running something to aim for.
You're welcome :-)
Interesting contrast between Gomes and Whiteman.
Whiteman ran Olympic times and his current masters results reflect that.
Gomes ran slower than I ran in College and I could never touch a sub 50 400m at any age past 35 years old.
I dislike when the "how they train" is the final week before they ran their best race. The real work was long over by then.

Faster than what Nick Symmonds is going to run this season.
Went sub4 as a 40 year old in Nashville at the Music City Distance Carnival.

Haven't heard any of those but I assume you're suggesting he's taking PEDs.
Actually, it probably suggests he was clean during the African EPO era, like all the talented British runners who came after Coe, Ovett, Cram.
If Morcelli, El G etc. want to prove they ran clean, why not force them to come out of retirement and race against the likes of Whiteman, Yates and other Europeans of their generation? Give them two years notice, test the hell out of all of them every week, and make them run against their clean rivals of the era. If they win they can keep their WRs, if they lose then strip them and give the WR to the best times of the Brits in the 90s.

Come on....Really???
Does anyone really care about old men trying to run fast???
Two Words......Whisper Contest.
I care.
No wonder you're a surfer and a butthole.
Please, wake up.
Understand what is going on.
Uhm, Yeah.
You probably don't want to know the truth.
I'd say test em but why??
At this point, does anyone really give a shite about masters on EPO and T still trying to pretend they can be in the Olympics?
----To the one who said bring on El G to race this guy.... Are you frickin serious??
El G could whip these silly UK guys straight off the couch, 50 pounds overweight, doing beer laps backwards. Come to think about it.....That would be must see TV!
Why are these UK runners so slow in their prime in the first place?
Does that make them try "harder" when they're "masters".
Do they know that this "news" makes everyone giggle?
----Sorry, EPO and T use should not be a laughing matter!
RIP: D3 All-American Frank Csorba - who ran 13:56 in March - dead
RENATO can you talk about the preparation of Emile Cairess 2:06
Running for Bowerman Track Club used to be cool now its embarrassing
Hats off to my dad. He just ran a 1:42 Half Marathon and turns 75 in 2 months!
Great interview with Steve Cram - says Jakob has no chance of WRs this year
Rest in Peace Adrian Lehmann - 2:11 Swiss marathoner. Dies of heart attack.
