We have been talking about the effectiveness of race pace vs as far as possible per workout,or at least short rest workouts so I thought"Why not a poll?"Note for this poll check all that apply.
As Jazz has pointed out, though, you do get aerobic work in the course of doing anaerobic work.
It is definitely possible to do too much anaerobic work, though; sometimes it is nice to get in some aerobic training without getting your LT too high or stressing your fast-twitch fibers too much.
I agree that you get aerobic work in the course of doing anaerobic work b/c there is no such thing as "pure" anaerobic or even "pure" aerobic work. Given his almost exclusive focus on 50s, Jazz may not be the best example of getting in sufficient aerobic work for longer races...any more than an ultra-marathoner would be a good role model for "regular" distance training for swimmers.
