Haven't blogged anything for a long time, but I have a clear couple of minutes here to log a selection of thoughts in my mind. First of all, the family is alright and they are doing just fine. I am focusing on them. I am out of the social media jungle, what is great in... Continue Reading →
BLOG / Vlog – what’s the story ?
Haven't logged anything for a while. It takes too much time, though still have a lot of motivation to write. Not only to create articles on training, workotus, racing and writing shoe reviews, but to personal blog too. I think I will start journaling a little in the mornings maybe 3 - 4 times a...

Running 400s for the 10k – How, why and when ?
This is a question what popped up recently, so I attempt to answer it with slight reservation. Coaches work with athletes on a very unique and individualised basis. This work is founded by the needs of the athletes to develop certain fitness treats and by experience from the past. So copying the last 6 x... Continue Reading →
Racing in the evening ? – It is different !
Having an afternoon or evening race needs a completely different approach to it, than an early 8am competition. Nutrition, sleep and hydration becomes priority. We can see nearly all major athletic events held at the late hours of the day, to improve on TV views and to fill up the stadiums. While it is great... Continue Reading →

I mean sometimes we can see ridiculously high volume at ridiculously low intensities for long time periods, but the speed structure what... Continue Reading →
BLOG: Patience for growth

Probably due to lack of interest from certain countries. If your country was not sending the maximum numbers of runners and you had the... Continue Reading →
Renato Canova – Work the confusion
I downloaded like 500 pages of work from Renato Canova, Italy born running coach. He had a lot of work done in the running coaching world, but outside of an inaccessible IAAF book, we cannot really find anything about his training methodologies. Just crapped up, messed up, controversial papers, guesswork and so. First of all,... Continue Reading →
Nike Vaporfly – Banned from competition
Starting out I would like to mention 3 pair of shoes, that are actually banned from competitions. I mean back of the pack runners can use it, but no elite or age group athletes are allowed to wear them. Spira - http://spira.com/ APL - https://www.athleticpropulsionlabs.com/ Enko - https://enko-running-shoes.com/en/ If I remember... Continue Reading →
I sleep when I am done ! – Thumbs Down !
Did you ever listen to motivational speakers ? I dont's sleep when I am tired, I sleep when I am done ! Sleep is for those who are broke ! There are 24 hours in a day, if you slept 8hours, one third is gone ! I worked so hard, that I forgot to sleep... Continue Reading →
