Crazy to think we’re only 5 days away from reading about how Seb Coe went for his second run of the day.
Truly the most wonderful time of the year.

Increasing athlete compliance (even with a program that is less efficacious) can end up with greater community effectiveness. Perhaps the “perfect program” is not always the best program—@EvertVerhagen 🤔#IOCprev2021 – at Monaco

Communication the key element of monitoring athletes. Make sure that the message has a meaning for them. #IOCprev2021 @EvertVerhagen

Plotting performance trends for athletes who've returned positive doping tests is interesting!
Most athletes' age-performance trajectories follow a quadratic (curved) trend...
So linear trends stand out.
Example from Athletics, Women's 1500m:

Imagine winning the US Olympic trials only to find out your inter-limb GCT asymmetry is 8% and you won’t get picked 🤣

Every time a shoe company hires a model for a photoshoot an athlete loses their dreams

There are two types of coach/athlete relationships. One where the coach helps the athlete reach her/his goals, and one where the athlete helps the coach reach his/her goals. Probably a middle ground also, but I know which end of that spectrum is the more healthy relationship.

A recommended podcast is last week's Inside Running Podcast interview with Zatopek silver medallist @izzibattdoyle. Very open with her development years, college in the US and her training.

Outstanding by @izzibattdoyle at Zatopek 10 national title in Melbourne tonight. Second place after a bold move with 3 laps to go. Awesome to watch. 👏

I’ve worked with some talented athletes that lacked passion. I’ve also worked with some passionate athletes that lacked talent. Of the 2 groups, I always prefer the latter as they have a better grasp of reality and realize what they don’t have.

The real inspiration of the day is @mardy_hehir serving as a role model for all the other medical-residents-fathers-of-two-while-running-120-mile-weeks.
