Surely not
Boden running both 400m and 800m a couple of weeks out from Nationals.
Some people just dont learn.
What other athlete who wants to do well at the Nationals is doubling up in the middle distances.

The races are on different days and only one four and eight. Good way to prepare yourself for nationals when you have to back up two 800s in a couple of days.Nationals are still two weeks away.
Quite different to the situation at Vic Titles where it was 2 runs of each distance.
Tamsyn Lewis is doing the same thing in Perth in prep for Nationals.

You have no clue do you... nationals is slightly superior to SA state champs. Boden will not be in the position where he can cruise through his heat at nationals and then go all out in the final. Boden HAS to run his heat as though it is a final. If he is successful in progressing through to the final, he has to be fit enough to back up his performance the next night and do it all over again. 2 weeks out from nationals, this is perfect preperation!

Cant compare Lewis with Boden.
Lewis has approx 3 secs on all the other runners in the 400m and the 400m will be just a training run.
Bodens programme will take the edge off him, maybe only 2-6% but thats all it will take at the Nationals to bring him undone.
Bodens coach is relatively inexperianced in coaching middle distance runners at National level and has gone out on his own by going down this path.
Its interesting that no other coach has chosen this path.

go through the entry list for the 800m. How many of those are quick enough over 400m to EARN a lane in a GP? Lewis' will not be having a training run. Have you seen her compete? Everytime she steps on the track - she is flat out. Just because lewis finished 1st or 2nd and Boden may finish the 400m at the back of the field - does not mean that Lewis was running at a sub-max intensity.
Do you know anything about tapering for a major competition? and SA state champs does not count as a major competition. He has 14 days to recover. oungy seems to know a lot about CF, so im assuming they will adopt his 10 day taper theory. All signs of neural fatigue will be vanished by day 6-7 post race. Everything between then and his 800 heat will be just a matter of keeping the legs ticking over and fresh

G Clarke. 800, 1500 and 3000?
Good to see C Yorke having a run over the 400mH.
Still not sure what he is aiming for this season.
Running events 70m-800m

no way aka pathway wrote: Bodens coach is relatively inexperianced in coaching middle distance runners at National level and has gone out on his own by going down this path.

In essence this is what this is all about. You appear irritated at the fact I coach a national level 800m runner (who by the way, with a PB of 1-52.8 was not a national level 800m runner before he joined YGTS).

My belief is that if Boden was being coached by anyone else, this 'pathway' would have appeared to be very reasonable; as 'no clue' has, twice already, eloquently explained the purpose of the 800/400 double 24 hours apart.

Might be a case of wait & see before commenting further? Or is that too much to ask?

There's two different situations. ONE is where a coach and an athlete with no prior history of national standard 800 running and the athlete improves to run national standard times. BOTH athlete and coach learn together. The SECOND is where a coach with no prior history of national standard has the opportunity takes on an athlete who is already at a national standard. I can see that as a potential problem. If youngy gets Boden to a national standard for the first time, running under 1-50 then thats GOOD for athlete and coach. BOTH have learned together. its not like he took on Renshaw or Risely? Every coach started somewhere.
