AM - 12 miles up to work, very easy. PM - 4.3 miles down to SHP. Ryan Hall announced this morning that he is going to be coached by Renato Canova. I think this is a very exciting move... I'm a huge fan of Canova's methodology. While I don't think it can be applied to recreational runners and even for someone like me its needs some tweaking... a guy with Hall's ability level has the potential to flourish under the system. And I have to make the obvious joke - if his current coach got dropped in favor of Canova, what does that say about Canova? :-) If you want some information overload, read this thread (good summary document available for download linked in that one), this thread, this blog, and these training programs. Got a kick out of this comment on the message boards... "Two of Letsrun's most controversial figures in one convenient package. It's like a comic book dream team!"
