Mileage is not everything, that is definitely true, but Knight is a severe outlier on a distribution of average mileage of elite distance runners. And whatever Knight has done has worked exquisitely well, so I credit him there.

He's doing what works for him. Shouldn't aspiring elite runners seek to do the same?
