Posted the Emma DeLira webinar this morning; she's the Associate Head T/F & XC Coach at Pomona-Pitzer. Their men won the NCAA III XC Championship a couple of years ago.
One of the things she talked about in regard to peaking well is not dropping mileage very much and keeping with threshold training.
100% co-sign this.
Parker may never leave LA ever again!
After opening her season over at UCLA in late-May with a 5000m personal best 14:49.41, Parker Valby drops nearly TEN SECONDS and runs 14:39.88 to close off day one at the USATF LA Grand Prix.
Valby becomes the ninth women in U.S. history to run a 5000m under 14:40.
