  • The Updated Training Wisdom of John Kellogg
    The Updated Training Wisdom of John Kellogg A collection of John Kellogg’s writings on training for distance runners Compiled by John Davis between May 2009 and December 2015 [email protected] www.runningwritings.com “Why do I pose as ‘Oz’? Because I know which mission to assign to help runners discover their potential. But I can't give them any results through magical powers; I'm just a human like the little carnival man from Kansas. I can only guide them. ” —John Kellogg Preface The goal of this project was to compile as many of John Kellogg’s posts on LetsRun.com as possible. I profoundly admire his training advice and his knowledge, and applying his principles to my own training brought me to new heights as a runner. Why John Kellogg, and not any of the other highly-regarded figures in the running world who have posted on LetsRun.com over the years (Renato Canova, Nobby Hashizume, Jack Daniels, et al.)? Perhaps because of his mysterious, guru-like reputation, or perhaps because of the sheer difficulty of assembling the range of posts. I also felt that it had to be done, that it would be a great loss for this knowledge to fade into obscurity over the years. John Kellogg seems to revel in the anonymity of the internet, and has posted under probably dozens of different “handles” over the years. In all likelihood, the writings here represent only a fraction of his total contribution to the online running community. Though his words sometimes fell on deaf ears, the power of the internet preserved much of his writing.

In school, he ran and boxed, but was most interested in rugby football. Because of the Great Depression of the 1920’s, Lydiard dropped out of school at 16 to work in a shoe factoryc. Lydiard figured he was pretty fit until Jack Dolan, president of the Lynndale Athletic Club in Auckland and an old man compared to Lydiard, took him on a five-mile training jog. Lydiard was completely exhausted and was forced to rethink his concept of fitness. He wondered what he would feel like at 47, if at 27 he was exhausted by a five-mile run. Lydiard began training according to the methods of the time, but this only confused him further. At the club library he found a book by F.W. Webster called “The Science of Athletics.” But Lydiard soon decided that the schedules offered by Webster were being too easy on him, so he began experimenting to find out how fit he could get.

It’s clear that these Games will be conducted in challenging circumstances. Our athletes are preparing for a tough and very different Olympic Games experience.

Some fantastic national and regional events are planned (we had a sneak preview at our last Olympians Commission meeting.

    TO: NZRL Staff, Districts and Affiliates and Board FROM: Cushla Dawson DATE: 09 February 2009 RE: Media Summary Tuesday 03 February to Monday 09 February 2009 NZRL loses its shirt as company goes bust: THE cash-strapped New Zealand Rugby League is set to lose the shirt off its back. The company that makes the World Cup winner's jersey is reported to have gone into administration. Sydney's Sun-Herald newspaper is today reporting the Australian division of International Sports Clothing which also supplies the Air New Zealand Cup's Manawatu and Bay of Plenty unions, six NRL clubs, Australian Super 14 franchises and two AFL teams has been placed in administration. Tough times ahead as crisis hits clubs: PARRAMATTA chief executive Denis Fitzgerald says he is open to offers to privatise the club amid fears some NRL teams may not survive the global economic crisis. The financial downturn has already had a severe impact on rugby league, with several clubs reporting that sponsors have either pulled the pin or are struggling to fulfil their commitments. While there are no current expressions of interest in buying into the Eels, Fitzgerald confirmed privatisation could be an option to ensure the club weathers the financial storm. Enjoy the calm before the Storm: Hamilton City council expects a good turnout and a profitable day when the Warriors play the Storm next Thursday. The Hamilton City Council is confident next Thursday's New Zealand Warriors-Melbourne Storm rugby league clash will be a financial success. It says that because neither team is being paid an appearance fee the city will break even if it sells 8000 tickets.
