Your opinion though, is rather like the opinion of a long-distance runner who has finally made it past the winning post.(你的感觉很象一个长跑运动员终于跑过了终点。)

If a distance runner practices speed work for the whole practice every day, he will not improve his endurance.(如果一名中长跑选手每天只进行速度练习，那么他将不能提高自己的耐力。)

I remember, in the school, I took part in every sports competition, as a long-distance runner and a sprinter. but now I can not. maybe I am too old to run.(或者跑步回家，当锻炼身体啦，马拉松不就是这样跑出来的？哈哈。记得学校里时，偶可是长跑短跑的能手，每次运动会，老师都会叫偶参加的，可是现在不行了了，老了。)

In the late 1950s, Philip Knight was a middle-distance runner on the University of Oregon track team, coached by Bill Bowerman.(在20世纪50年代末，菲利普·奈特是俄勒冈大学田径队的一名中长跑运动员，他的教练是比尔·鲍尔曼。)

You will become a great athlete at running 1 to 2 miles at LT pace, but as a distance runner you need to maintain a quality pace for much longer distances.(用乳酸阈配速跑1至2英里，你会是一个优秀的运动员，但作为一个长跑者，你需要在更长的距离上保持有质量的配速。)
