That's been a commonly held belief for some time now, but I think it's being pretty heavily refuted by the current crop of 5k/10k studs re-writing the record books. Tergat, Geb, Radcliffe, and now Rutto come to mind, and Laroupe and Khannouchi did their share of track running before focusing on the roads. As far as I know, their respective physiologies haven't changed as they've moved up.
