BTW, sometime well after Salazar had set a world record in the marathon and the 2nd fastest track 10K and 5K ever he did announce that he had been running 'wrong' all that time and left Coach Bowerman to train under another famous coach who altered Salazar's stride to each other's satisfaction. Salazar never again ran as fast as when he was 'doing it all wrong.'
however:
our argument against Salazar's switching and running wrong is an example of a post hoc fallacy. Salazar never ran well after his "Duel in the Sun," after which he had some health issues that prevented him from running well.
