Maybe I am fortunate that this works for me. If I stop exercising regularly, my weight tends to increase by about 1 Kg per week unless I make a conscious effort to cut portion sizes at meal times.

I have a double interest. 1. In supplying information to readers of my weekly newspaper fitness column (http://www.stuff.co.nz/nelson-mail/sport/the-fitness-zone/) 2. As a 60+ triathlete I'm interested in low-level training as espoused by Lydiard, Maffetone etc and also keen to maintain lower weight levels in the interests of better performance. If you have any pointers to articles on efficient management of weight I'd be interested to follow them up. Cheers Peter Gibbs Hi,

I agree with Pirie, Dr Romannov and you, that trainers/ road running shoes with a thick heel do not allow a good running style. Well done to break the 20 minutes mark for the 5K and good luck with the pursuit of your goa of 18:45 Canute Dr Ruiz,

Wed, 09 Apr 2008 16:53:11 +0000 http://canute1.wordpress.com/about-me/#comment-105 HELLO, IMPRESSIVE ARTICLES WITH GOOD THEORETICAL SUPPORT AND ARGUMENTS.SOMETHING I HAVE TO AGREE WITH ROMANOV AND PIRIE IS ABOUT RUNNING SHOES. I NOW RUN WITH THIN SOLE SHOES AS RECOMMENDED BY ROMANOV. AFTER THE INITIAL ADAPTATION PERIOD (LAZY FEET FROM RUNNING ON BRICKS), I CAN SAY THAT THE TYPICAL RUNNING SHOE ROBS YOUR NATURAL ABILITY TO PRODUCE ELASTIC RECOIL. NOW 6 MONTHS LATER, IF I TRY TO RUN AGAIN ON REGULAR RUNNING SHOES WITH SUCH HUGHE PLATFORM SOLES(I CALL THEM BRICKS)I FEEL I'M RUNNING WITH BOOTS!!! YOU ARE RIGHT ABOUT POSE/CHI SHORTCOMINGS IN REGARDS TO THE LAWS OF PHYSICS. I ALSO AGREE WITH LANDING SLIGHTLY AHEAD OF COG. IN A WAY IT GIVES YOU AND "ANCHOR" TO CATAPULT YOURSELF FORWARDS(JUST LIKE A VAULT JUMP) LANDING OVER OR BEHIND GIVES YOU UNCONTROLLED RUNNING. WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THE SHOE ISSUE? GOOD SITE, VERY INFORMATIVE, I'M 43 AND ALSO COMPETED INTENSELY DURING MY LATE TEENS EARLY 20'S. STOPPED FOR A LONG TIME AND CAME BACK A YEAR AGO,2 MONTHS AGO 19:51 5K BUT WANT TO RUN 18:45. IT IS TOUGH. I CAN'T DO 16:59 ANYMORE AS I DID AT 20 YEARS OLD. I UNDERSTAND MY BEST PR IS GONE WITH THE BEE-GEES AND RONALD REAGAN BUT AS A MASTER RUNNER, I THINK EFFICIENCY CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE AND HELP ME RUN FASTER WITHIN MY ABILITIES.
