I especially like the quote of the day!

Yes, they are on your easy days. You gradually work up to 8-10 reps. Then you replace one of the hill workouts with strides and drills.<br /><br />Dan &amp; Steve, don&#39;t thank me until you have a copy in your hand - and that&#39;s a long ways off.Chadhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412073727859282887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-9041952646116832182009-07-02T10:22:04.829-05:002009-07-02T10:22:04.829-05:00The slowdown is apparent at all race distances. In 1982, I ran the St. Patrick&#39;s Day 5 Mile (now Human Race 8K) in 25:29 and I wasn&#39;t in the top 50. Today, I&#39;d be winning awards.<br /><br />Thanks for taking on the yearbook!SteveQhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16943650844671498074noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-65245299368483821862009-07-02T08:20:56.493-05:002009-07-02T08:20:56.493-05:00Glad to hear you&#39;re resurrecting the yearbook. Gosh and Mike have done a nice job of providing the ROY scoring and recently added the list of single year records. It will be nice to have the top 10 age group times updated. I&#39;ve also missed the nice commentary that wnet along with the announcement of winners.<br />ThanksDannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11188695.post-7336915497661346992009-07-01T19:59:48.117-05:002009-07-01T19:59:48.117-05:00I knew the cut-off was considerably faster than it is today. I thought I heard the average this year was like 4:39 or something considerably slower than previous years.<br /><br />So how many times a week do you do the hill sprints? And is that just on easy days that you mix those in?Runnin-From-The-Lawhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17870832544535034711noreply@blogger.com
