Thanks for Marist alum Pete Startz (class of 2000, just ran Boston with classmate Tom Henry) for sending me the link to this article from the Irish Times regarding 400-meter repeats.
Pete knows all too well my affinity for quarters. Pretty amazing what Emil Zatopek did back in his day in terms of 400-meter repeats. Makes that legendary chapter from Once A Runner seem tame by comparision.
Anyway, check it out, I think you will enjoy it ...
I find Zatopek's training totally unfathomable. Of course,the two missing pieces of info: time for the 400 and recovery time.
