  • Should Be Better

    Tiresome rambling with childish teenage boy locker room swearing to show how tough they are. Particularly Hoare. McDonald tries to be professional but the others aren’t quite up to it. Not worth the time.

Q: What are your thoughts on Fawble's take that the marathon now requires less bravery for a breakthrough?

Why Rory Linkletter did Triples, Uphill Tempos, and Double Threshold to run 2:06 at Boston...
Q: What's the thinking behind doing triples and how does it affect training volume?
Rory explains it as a curiosity to increase weekly volume without extending a single long run, front-loading high-mileage weeks with multiple shorter runs to reach 140+ miles in a week, while acknowledging it wasn't a constant practice.

Q: Ivan, can you hear us?
