Basically an on-line version of a older 2007 SportsVideo production. So low resolution video. Also the content is pretty generic and very introductory in nature. Basically flow - this is an example of a warm up, this is an example of a diagonal stride warm up, this is a hill workout, this is an interval, this is circuit training, etc. etc. Coach Walker obviously knows much more than this level and was probably told to keep it extremely simple for this video. Would be great to see an update of this material. I only recommend this to completely new distance coaches. The LSU Houston Frank videos, ones by Justin Leonard Southlake Carroll, Diljeet Taylor are far more useful in my opinion for coaches looking to improve / compare their methods to others.
