coachsci.sdsu.edu/.../ultra40a.pdf There is a method, which is referred to as the Rushall method which Michael Andrew uses. Was wondering if you had any critique about this. If this sort of training is a good idea and what are the problems. Would this also be good for longer events? Like the 400 IM? Thanks!

  • Sunruh, The total yardage is 3400 of which 2200 is at race pace. I am pretty sure you won't get that much race pace training in any other Masters workout. oh i agree! but also understand that 3400 is still a good distance as well. while this may work for up to 500yds for masters. i dont see how this works for elite nor any distance over 500 even for masters. i could be quite wrong but i just dont think anyone is willing to try it for a season to "test it"
