      Hey, good week. What are your thoughts on the World Championships (particularly the 1500 meters)?

      steve,

      i was wondering if you could explain why one would do short hill sprints vs. long hill sprints, and the correct times of years to do either of these. for example, a MD to Dis. runner in winter base phase, precomp and comp phases.

      thanks
