Jack Rayner & Brett Robinson complete some amazing workouts and race results, both ran sub 2:11 marathons and were pace-makers for inoes 1:59 challenge. Definitely pay to have a visit.

Who are the top runners on Strava to follow? Always interested to see how the elite train
I follow Luke Matthews the Australian middle distance star. Although, he didn't have the WC that he expected his training is very interesting because he trains fairly hard and his recovery runs are slower than most of the people who post about them running faster than 6:30 on their easy days. Sometimes he will post a workout that makes you think, "wow I can also do that workout."
What really amazed me was his WC lead up and his tuneup workouts. I remember him ripping 300m repeats and other distances like 600m break downs.
A few solid 700 mile weeks in there.
The actual bekele? ?
Joey Whelan and Ryan Root post all their stuff and I find their approaches quite interesting.
95% of elites and sub-elites fabricate their activities on Strava to appear better or worse than they actually are. So you will learn nothing by looking at their training on Strava, since it does not match reality.
Brogan Austin is on strava.

Honestly why would anybody do that? For me Strava is the place where I check myself later how my training has gone or how I felt in a similar situation for example last year. If I lied once to myself then the situation would be extremely difficult in future because I would not remember where something was fabricated.
Btw, how Ben Barrows is able to use Strava because he tells that he runs either without a watch or with a timex watch without GPS?
Bram Som, 800m european champion in 2006. He 40 years old now, still pretty fast. Lots of hill work nowadays.
Jordy Williamsz and Luke Mathews are great follows.

barrows can do it by going on routes that he's measured/ran with a watch, check the time later and put it in.
Kyle Merber.
This guy Harvey has some fun training to follow. Trains under Mike Smith. Does some crazy sh*t

Do you actually know this and if so, how? It's unlikely that you actually know 90% of the elites and sub elites who post on Strava so where are you getting this from?
