Can’t wait to see Stewy race again! Great interview, thank you.

[@Trackstaa_]

Yeah hopefully early May I believe at the doha diamond league. Appreciate the kind words!

On the question of double threshold days, the novelty of two track sessions is a red herring. The key insight is that there is more ability for top athletes to improve their lactate threshold as adults compared to v02 max. Nic Bideau was onto the value of lactate threshold back in the 2000s. whether you include LT with double threshold days or some other way is a programming decision but the essential insight is to emphasize LT.

[@Trackstaa_]

yes training lactate threshold is crucial. some do that in the form of double days, some in longer sessions, some fartleks have the same effect. I'd say Jakob seems to have the optimal workload to train it

COVID Jab messed him up man. He would've been way faster now. Hope he recovers because he's my favourite runner.

[@weiss7468]

Stop spreading misinformation, he mentioned that he was affected by long COVID, not the jab
