And he can automatically become a champion coach simply by setting high qualifying standards for athletes who will train with him.

hey will, way too many sessions in there. you should be just doing base work during av season if ur looking to focus on zatopek and interclub 1500s. im up at ferny most weekends and if your not doing it regularly then yeah it will take it out of you a bit but consistency is the key here.
you really only wanna be doing 2-3 main sessions a week, tuesday, thursday, and saturdays if not racing. tempo sessions, if at a pretty decent pace, should be considered a session cos otherwise ur just gonna burn urself out.
keep up the cross training and strength work but dont do any of the latter on days where you do a hard session (tues, thurs, sat, sun). and i think the 75mins on wednesday is a good idea at an easy pace.

Yeah, that seems to be the consensus. Have never done a strength session on tuesday, thursday or saturday haha. I was thinking of heading up to Ferny once every three weeks because once Matty Johnsen disappears to the US it could be difficult getting up there from Collingwood cos I don't have a car yet. I think this has been the mistake I've been making the last couple of years - trying to do too much, seeing great results early but then not being able to hold it throughout nationals and through to the track session.

To the other guys who mentioned my coach not being good, it is my honest opinion that Tom Kelly is the best youth coach going around, if he wasn't I wouldn't choose to be coached by him, and I consider myself really lucky to be able to. All the opinions everyone has given point to the same thing, so I'll be able to take a much better model to him for us to work around so that hopefully I'll come good when track season rolls around.

A couple of ideas. I would just suggest that you switch your Wednesday AM/PM runs around so that your longer run is in the arvo. This will allow for better recovery from your session. Also, you put down hills for Saturday PM. Probably not the best idea if you are going to hit Ferny the following morning. Maybe do a block of hills on the Thursday in replace of your speed session, then with that strength hit the track for your Anaerobic Conditioning later in the year. I do like the idea of at least one track session a week during the winter, which is what you would have on Tuesday. This leaves for a threshold type run on Saturday AM.

I find it very funny/bad to look back on what I thought was a top notch program. I also find it great that my views now reflect that of many others in this thread. I won't bore everyone with details, but it is refreshing to be reminded that no matter how much I think I know, there are people who know much much more.
