I know that there was a thread on Bob Hayes on the old forum, but nothing was mentioned about what the great Bob Hayes did for his track training, apart from run-throughs from one end of the football field to the other. Surely someone else must have more details. My intuitive feeling though, is that Bob was a raw talent who didn’t train that hard or that much, apart from the training he did for football.
“Bob Hayes training again” :o
woah, for a moment there I thought…
I guess the question is;
did Bob hayes do ANYTHING a little differant in training compared to most track athletes and compared to most football players of his generation.
Dallas Cowboys training is not important on that tangent, as it was after the olympics.
He probably did longer sprints on the field than most football players and he ran on the grass more than track athletes. Anything else?
