Thanks Paul. But again I'll ask, do any elites do this?
I appreciate your testimonial and hope that you did, in fact, get good results from this training. Unfortunately, I don't know you and haven't seen your training first hand, so I can only glean so much from what you say (please take no offense). I have had personal experiences with many people who have drawn very incorrect conclusions from their experience. ie someone who runs slower off of a "run only" marathon training program than she did off of tri training draws the conclusion that tri training is better for marathons (shhh.....don't let the Kenyans hear about this ; ). I personaly witnessed her "marathon training" which was just all wrong. She pretty much did everything she could to ruin her marathon. At the same time, she set a 2 mile PR (gee.....imagine that with all those hard intervals she was running during her "marathon training").
