Re: coach barnet

satch, you really ARE mellowing! Self-deprecating humor and a legitimate sense of satire. Well done.

Re: coach barnet

SATCH , I no longer compete as an athlete. I am the voice of reason , and find the North American society has the ability to keep lowering the the standards of fitness and health . When I can still run a 31 minute 10k with out training , and I witness people in road races who are happy with 40 minute 10k runs it makes me sick . Any healthy adult ( not cripples or mentally challeged) should be able to jog a 10k in less than 37 minutes. Those who can't, have pages of built in excuses , and can justify why they are lazy , or fat , or slow.

Re: coach barnet

37 is all?? If you can't jog at least a 29, you might as well accept your obesity and prepare to die from a heart attack.

Coach - what a slacker you are - I am 53, my only workout is 12 sit-ups before bed each night, and even I can break 30 easily. Pack it up, bro, you're not fit material for THIS board.

Re: coach barnet

DON'T know about fitness noise but we could use some new cats around here. Warning , this can be a tough crowd , especially if you don't like track and/or are a moron.

<40 minute 10k runs it makes me sick>

A vast majority of young people in shape who just don't have running talent are incapable of breaking 40 min. for 10K. I couldn't, hard as I tried. Running 1K in 3:20 is considered a good time in many fitness tests (it was when I was in a boot camp in Czechoslovak military). That translates to 32 min. 10K if one can run his full speed 10X. The times you are talking about are competetive level, not a healthy non-competing population. As usually, you are full of it.

I suspect that some are made sick by self-righteous, logic-challenged windbags. Just a guess, of course.

"Running 1K in 3:20 is considered a good time in many fitness tests (it was when I was in a boot camp in Czechoslovak military). That translates to 32 min. 10K if one can run his full speed 10X."

Just a nitpick, but a 3:20 km is 200 seconds. 10x = 2000 seconds = 33:20, not 32:00. I doubt the good coach could hit any of those times.

"As usually, you are full of it."

Can't disagree with that, though.

When somebody keeps talking nonsense, you respond before counting. Thanks for the correction :-)

I think the guy stumbled in here by accident, thinking this was the forum for Barney and Friends. See how far he gets on ...stat telling those teenagers they are lazy, fat and slow.

If you can't calculate the pace per klm in a 10k , you will never achieve the desired time. Expecting 90 seconds per quarter mile (37 minutes) and change is NOT very good .
