    To be fair, if I'd been on the receiving end of this thread, I'd probably never come back either.

    Did you read the entire thread?

    I was in the entire thread.

    It got disgusting around the time it stopped being a debate around safe training methods, and turned into accusations of OP lying about his daughter's times and outright demands of proof.

    Indeed. Play the ball not the player, and whilst one might think that the originator was full of *kitten* that doesn't really excuse the approach.

    Even if he was genuine he demonstrated a pretty typical reaction to the responses from others.

    My apologies. I had conveniently forgotten about that part of the thread. I had said my piece about the program and moved on.

    Yeah, Let's just move on and forget this. Sorry about bringing it up. I just thought the programming was worth a mention.

    Personally, I won't be moving on. I'm still holding out with a glimmer of hope that OP will come back and give us an update. (Hey, it happened earlier this week on a TWO YEAR old thread on 80/10/10.)

    Making a calendar entry now to bump this again in two months.

    I didn't make it all the way through the thread but I read the plan. I was planning a meager 5 miles tonight but I think i need to go ice my shins. I think it made my shin splints flare back up.
