You're very welcome ,just say no.
A boatload of red herrings. You've been stripped of all logic and reason, so you've desperately sought out any phrase or any nuance in lexeme that you could somehow contort and juxtaposition to support your patently false thesis.
I said in another thread, that (for a highly trained runner such as Clayton) 5:45 to 6:00 pace was hardly an effort.
It was dunes runner who changed the quote to "5:30 to 6:00 pace was easy for Clayton", to which I responded "5:30 to 6:00 pace IS easy for ME".
Then TomM, as is his MO, changed it to "VERY easy" and finally "effortless". To which I responded, " 5:00 was hard, but sometimes was "effortless".
I'll even take it a step further, when an athlete is well-trained, the concinnity is such that 4:40 pace was "effortless". Does that now mean I'm saying 4:40 pace is easy in your feeble mind?
You are so obsessed with trying to me wrong at something (there must be something you can twist), that you are not, and never have been, engaged in any cogent discussion at this board.
A couple of things: I've trained where more than 50 percent of my running was on grass and trail and where all of my running was on the roads. I'd rather run the roads and have firm footing than risk twisting my ankle on rough surfaces any day. Secondly, Brian Fullem, our resident podiatrist gave the testimony for one of the foremost experts in the field on the physics of hill running. Thirdly, you're damn straight, running three seasons should be no problem. The successes of NCAA runners in the past and present (xc, indoors and outdoors) is the proof.
Now get out and run some.
