From the comments
I remember, for some reason, Arthur had a special place in his heart for South Africa. I believe, after Rome Olympics, Arthur took Peter and Murray and stopped over in SA, I believe, for the first time. I believe there's a photo of Murray Halberg, fresh from his Olympic victory, during one of the workshops there, being completely left behind all the local runners in a training run!! I had a pleasure of chatting with Zola a few times. When I talked to her about training, she said she "did the Lydiard Training except for one thing..." I asked her what that one thing was. "I took a day off!!"

Hi Anba, coaching and training is a results based exercise
from my years of coaching it is preparing the athlete to perform on the day, when the other athletes line up to win the same event
over all the years I have worked on less is better to start with
the undoubted gains from aerobic training is massive
with distance comes the need for recovery .. all my top athletes worked where recovery time was difficult
thanks for the interaction and on we go

Ran by feel coach, not looking at the watch.... just ran according to how i felt... enjoyed the run although half way through as usual my mind would always plead to just stop and go home...lol... but as usual i ignored it and completed it..
overall run was comfortably hard about RPE 8.5, happy with the results...
here's a breakdown of the lap times from 4k TT my circuit loop about 570++m...
cheers coach

RE: Gabba Gabba Hey Ho let's - TheEd - 14-03-2021
Hi Anba .. I was looking back to the early days
Before the start of the cycle ,
4k TT 20:04 avg Pace 5:01
Now it's 19:19...avg pace 4:50...
this was 2019
and comparing to now .. where you control your running and achieve your goals .. what must also be remembered is that you are on your own, when 'normal' racing and events return the boost from company will enhance things even further
very nice and I know from what I see there should still be more improvement coming
onwards TheEd

Good Day Coach,
Fri 19/3/21
2k warm up
Time of run 8.06am
Hot weather, terrible weather lol ?
3x2k Manual +90 sec rest
Dist /Time / Pace / Avg Pulse / Max Pulse /
2.01k / 9' 46.0 / 4'51 / 154 / 165 /
2.01k / 9' 38.2 / 4'48 / 159 / 178 /
2.00k / 9' 45.5 / 4'52 / 166 / 186/
Avg Pace = 4' 50.3
Avg Pulse= 159
Recovery was 90"( lite walk in the heat thanks to the sun... lol)
no/ avg pulse/ Lowest Pulse
1/ 133 / 110
2/ 147 / 124
3/ 151 / 133
For this session I used a different route, checking out a newer place which is under construction.
Usually I do my 2k sessions in the early mornings between 5 to 6 am, this time it was about 8 am when the Sun was already up. I totally underestimated the heat effect ...after my 2nd rep, the feeling when walking during recovery under the sun was simply terrible...lol...
I just had a gut feeling if did the last 2k rep... I might be having problems recovering from it due to the heat ... I suffered this before coach, feels like all the life force been zapped by the heat ... so just I just did 3X2k rep...
cheers
