t-and-f: Re: Three sub 10 men in a training group

[Glenn Smith]

Donovan and Obadele trained together in Austin for 1999 and 2000 every day, Bruny spent a lot of time in Austin but came in and out to spend time with his family in Montreal.  However he but did the same workouts, had the same coach trained with the group quite a lot during the season. The coach/athlete arrangement was full time despite Bruny travelling in and out a bit.   I don't think club or country designation is all that important in relation to a group of athletes who train together. Many athletes belong to a club and have coaches separate from the club, if the same coach works with a group of athletes and they train much of the time together, they are a training group.  Dan Pfaff's group had 3 sub 9.90 men and 5 men with sub 10 PBs in 1999.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Conway To: Glenn Smith ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, December 28, 2000 8:31 AM Subject: Re: Three sub 10 men in a training group Glenn Smith wrote:     This has already been done, Dan Pfaff's Austin, Texas group in 1999 had three sub 9.90 sprinters: 1) Donovan Bailey         9.84 2) Bruny Surin              9.84 3) Obadele Thompson   9.87 plus two other sub 10 men for good measure; Vince Henderson (9.95 PB), and Kareem Streete Thompson (9.96 PB)   >>>>>   Does this count since there really is no "team"  and with the exception of Bailey adn Surin all of these ment compete separately .. The top 3 primarily for their countries .. And to my knowledge the arrangement (athletes/coach) is not full time ??   Conway Hill [EMAIL PROTECTED]
