World Athletics has a profile of Kincaid up on their website. He talks about the differences in his workouts this year form the past.
“When I joined Mike, he does double threshold at 7000ft and it’s a little bit faster than what I was running, so that was also a little step in the right direction, and his rest is a lot shorter than what I was doing. He’s really about building the engine and then sharpening through different ways – short hills and through specific sessions.”
He also talks about he is all in now.
“I used to have a lot of passions, but I feel like recently I have become a little more like ‘this is my moment’ and very focused on doing that, and I’m happy just doing that,” he says. “I know other people say you have to have things outside of the sport, but I’ve done so many things outside the sport, and I just want to focus on the sport the last few years that I can. I have a lot to learn. I have to learn new workouts, I have to learn my competition, I have to learn how to race well. There are a lot of ways that I still need to improve, that requires all my attention.”
“On Bowerman, I never felt like I had to be a student of the sport, I was part of an elite team and it kind of happened on its own,” he says. “Now I have to take time out of my day to watch races and to figure out my training and things like that.”
