Looking at some athlete I’m not sure how they could be competitive with their natural physique... for example Elinor Purrier looks like overachiever and seems big boned compared to other runners and I’m thinking will never win anything (same for Colleen Quigley at steeple).
Is it possible to be able to look at a runner and judge their success? And or what event would be ideal... maybe quigley would be better if she toned up and focused on 1,500?
I’m not a coach but I know there are some on this sight and am interested in your opinions.
