Why don't you shoot them an email? For example, send some email to Scott Molina, I'm sure he'll reply. Tell him I sent you.

(Sorry skid, but you were complaining that I was too tame these days)

I thought about that....I guess ill give it a try.

I was not kidding. Email Molina and tell him I sent you, LOL...

Hang on...how did Hellriegel get thrown in as old school. He only arrived "on the scene" at 1995 in Kona, although one might argue that he was already there with a 6th place at ITU World's in 1992 (yup, all the Ironman studs had short course speeeeeeed).

Old school ends in 1990. After that , the rest of the guys are newcomers. And those in the 2000's are just recycling what the best of the first two decades came up with through trial and error and even with all the technology they can't touch the old school studs at short or long course:-)

As for hours and distances....we need Skid to pipe in, but if you follow some of the recent Epic Camps, you get a flavour for what was going on.

10 minutes! For Dev to reply to an Old School thread. What took you so long. :-)

I have done some weeks close to 50 hours....which were somewhat epic camp emulations...but the New School thinking is to only do this for a week or two....I have a hunch that back in the day that some of these guys put big weeks in like this regularly....I would like to see a training log of one of those guys leading up to one of their better IM performances...All I wanna know is week after week volume

I have only really been doing triathlon for 4 years...so Hellriegal seems old school to me, but I guess he isn't really old school

Matt

Have you emailed Molina yet?

that guy just shipped my bike today...How long does it take me to recover from and ironman...as long as it takes to get my bike.

Holy shit man, maybe i shouldn't train with you after all!

Seriously though, if i had the time I would probably attempt something similar. Not really for any other reason that to see how my body would react. (i'm thinking some sort of whimper)
