As a competitive runner for fifty years I used his training methods from cross country to the marathon. All of the basics of Lydiard training are the foundations of programs today. I had good fortune to hear him talk and it was very entertaining!
Seb Coe did not do liddiard’s training and did hills, weights, plyometrics, intervals and kept miles to 50 miles a week max. Coe won 2 Olympic 1500m titles and 2 x 800m olympic silvers + 12 world records. His coach peter Coe said liddiard was old hat and you need to develop an athlete with quality not slow jogging. Peter Coe’s methods are now used worldwide by middle distance runners EL G from Morocco king of the mile ran 60-70 miles a week max only and lots of intervals on the track like 12 x 400m in 55 seconds with 1 min recovery. Coe ran 8 x 800m in 1:55 with 1 min recovery You can’t run sub 1:41 in 800m or sub 3:28 1500m with slow long running. Yes endurance is a base but speed endurance is needed for the races. I believe peter Snell if he did peter Coe’s training would have broke 1:43 I was an 800m runner myself and a state champion and beat many runners running 80-100 miles a week with only 30-40 miles of quality intervals at multi-tier training system of 10,000m 5000m pace, 1500m pace and 800m pace repeats Things change

@@APBCTechnique the Norwegians tend to favour his approach and they are destroying the high intensity guys atm
This is the method that Japanese marathon runners have been using with such a great result
Thank you for this. Is there a transcript of his speech? Would love to study it. Thanks in advance.
Gold.
and silver and bronze
Arthur says he is 74 so this must have been filmed in 1991 or 1992
Around 17:30 he mentions "at Tokyo this last week." That's the world championships so this must be about September 1991.
