Hi Paul
Well we have the same name so thats a good start. Thanks for the heads up on books. I will look into the Brohamer book. I do have Pace Makes the Race and I think he writes in that so if Modern Pace dives into greater detail then thats the book for me.
With RDSS I am in agreement 100%. But for me its like handing over a 747 to a 13 year old to fly. Its powerful with a gazillion instruments and readings. For me the end result is going to be crash and burn. I have to get my hands around everything and learn some of the basics. I want to zero in on total energy. Like Sartin said confidence and do it the way that you are comfortable with is key.
So as you state - form is extremely important in your analysis. I could also add: pace, speed, class and running style - we are both looking at it in the exact same way! Those are what I want to master.
I like the idea of going back in time. I'll even read all the followups if I have to. A lot of old posts have given me ideas also.
Thanks again Paul. You and Hoof have given me something I can really use!
