The Greatest of All Time
I've heard that, too. Is it also true, that after you've run for a while, and amass some decent mileage, and you're running every day or almost, you should add in a couple of hill days? I mean, to gain strength and stuff, and to help increase your fitness and if you want to get faster? Also, it uses a bunch of oxygen when you run up those hills, right?
Why is it sideways?
Or, put differently: How can we say the same thing about the same objects but mean different things? Consider the following two expressions: 1) The morning star is low in the sky. 2) The evening star is low in the sky. These expressions refer to the same object (Venus), yet the sense of meaning conveyed by the two expressions is very different (consider the implicit time of day conveyed by the expressions). Ogden and Richards, and later Campbell, recognized the importance of the meaningful nuance among the terms that implied different contexts, but did not provide a direct framework for modeling these differences. Rather, their focus was to provide a model for distinguishing words from entities, regardless of context

They don't refer to the same object. That's the myth that leads to the elimination of context.
I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.

On your deathbed, you won't wish that you'd spent more time at the office. But you will wish that you'd spent more time running. Because if you had, you wouldn't be on your deathbed.

Jesus M. Phelps, this thread is ridiculous.
You guys should take this to the Off the beaten path thread on "Thing that suddenly don't make sense".
Can I get a ruling here? Trying too hard to parlay yesterday's brilliance into another day in the limelight?
Right on Hereford...
I'm not sure if this is a hijack or if I'm going to start Wrestlemania 4,257 but my question is around a race/effort estimated VO2submax and LT. Is there a direct relationship between these two? Does it really matter? I get the basics of training under, at, and above LT threshold but are there training plans or benefits to VO2 training or is it just a number that gives one person bragging rights over another person because he/she has better potential?

By golly you may be onto somthing here. So then--thinking out loud here--it might be helpful to sometimes run faster for some distance, or period of time. Again, once you've run for a while and ammassed some decent mileage, and you're running every day or almost. Perhaps alternating varying lengths or periods of "fast" running with intervals of slower or "recovery" running? Because I think it uses a bunch of oxygen when you go faster, too, right?
