One of the things that I learned from an interview with Frank Shorter was the need for speed. Shorter, the 1972 gold and 1976 silver medalist at the Olympic marathon, raced from 2 miles to 26.2 miles, holding the 2-mile indoor AR for some time. I remember Shorter dueling with Rod Dixon, 1972 Olympic bronze medalist at 1,500m in an indoor meet in California. They hit the 1.5 miles in about 6:30, and then, it got serious. Shorter dropped a 60-second 400m and then a 57-second last 400m, holding Dixon off until the last straight.

My interpretation of that was, during my buildups in January and July, I would hit all comers each week and run the 2 miles. I was running 100-120 miles a week, two runs a day, and needed to check my speed. I might do a hill session one day and a fartlek another, but the 2-mile was like a religious thing. It got me right under a five-minute mile pace and made me work. At the end of each all-comers season was a 5000m on the track, and that would always get a good crowd.
