### The usual word to describe runners using this regimen is "injured." Real
dangerous playing the short miles game, though there's an article on it in
this month's Runner's World. Short story is "Maintain Quality" -- which is to
say speed/stress. Just so happens that that's the cue for older runners, too.
How convenient. (!)

### I know you meant "negative split" -- and yes, I've joined the Church of
Negativity, though... putting it to good work requires more
pacing-with-adrenalin knowledge than I have at present. I was way off last
Saturday, thinking I was doing a desired 6:45 and getting 6:25; 150 yards
off?

it.
