Children urinate in the pool. It's true. I know because when I was a child I used to urinate in pools.

I still do

Actually newmom, height doesn't really make much of a difference. The majority of these black dudes from africa who dominate distance running are midgits, 5'6" or so, basically about the same height as the typical muscleman at the gym LOL

albeit that is true, they been training a hell of a lot longer than I...

Do you practice different protocols with regards to your running? For example, fartlek, intervals, and LSD? (LSD is short for long slow distance)

not really, usually on the last 20 minutes I change the speeds around, for me its more distance than anything. That is how I like to train. As far as trying for the 6 minute mile...I have been amping it up speeds, I gotta say its a good challenge

dj181 · « **Reply #64 on:** June 05, 2010, 04:10:28 AM »

It sounds to me like you are hitting mainly LSD, it would be good for you to throw in some fartlek or interval training once or maybe twice a week, they would help you to achieve your goal much more quickly.

Cutting back on talking could improve the results on the mile run.
