Answers:
If you don't have raw talent as runner, is it still possible to succeed in that field?
dude, no doubt in my mind, it is Steve Prefontaine. Trusttt me. I have posters of him everywhere in my room, hes definatly the worlds best distance runner of all time.I want to be a guide runner...where can I start?
there is no doubt in my mind steve prefontaine is your answer. also coming close to him is alan webbAre you speaking of Americans, or all distance runners? No Americans are in the top 10 of all time distance runners. If you are looking at times it has to be current runners who are going faster then previous champions. All time look at Emil Zatopek, who won the 5K, 10K, and marathon at the same Olympics, Peter Snell only 800, 1500 winner at same Olympics. Lassa Verin won 5K, 10K at two different Olympics. Hallie Gabresalasie, Bekele. There are lots, but I can not say who is the best of all time.
How can I increase my running speed in a short time...say within 1 and a half weeks?
steve prefontaine. he just is the best. He might not have all the world records or anything, but he was one of the hardest distance runners ever. therefore i would say he is the best.How do you increase overall running (sprint) speed?
