i'm going to suggest some maths treatment of it
i don't want to hear bullsh!t about what meagre 400 ability some 200 guys had, which allowed them to beat a 10.00s guy over 200, etc - those topics get locked & i suggest gh take some long-term action if if it descends into that - i'm trying to suggest some thought-provoking analysis ( even if it's wrong )
this is a mathematical analytical topic - so argue maths, not post drivel
the one thing that these topics have got me thinking about is what the baseline 400 for an elite 100/200 guy ( ~ 10.00/20.00 ) shoud be off NO specific 400 training at all
if we can agree on this, the rest pretty much falls into place
i'm suggesting that a 10.00/20.00 guy spent a season runnning just 400s of his 100/200 ability ( say 1/2 dozen ), he'd get down thru racing alone ( learning pacing thru experience, etc ) of
~ 46.00
i can see it being faster, but probably not slower
then, we can get some idea of effect on a 200, based on
- 100m advantage is double that over 200m ( known from immemorial : 10.00 = 20.00, 9.95 = 19.90, 9.90 = 19.80, etc ) for same 400m ability
- 400m advantage for 200m, with same 100m ability from theoretical model i tried is 0.25 of the 400 advantage
i'll post some examples next, to see if we are going in the right direction...
