Well yeah that's true. My brother has been training for the 10k for a couple of years now. His build is very similar to mine, comparable vo2max to mine when both were untrained etc. but for some reason he just can't improve his 10k time like he wants. He's constantly stuck at 40-42min, even though he can run 3000m in slightly over 10min, so his threshold sucks in comparison. I'm constantly telling him to just take up cycling, heh.

Also, for those who have built up their own wheels, how the hell are you supposed to guess the length of the spokes? The manufacturers do not supply half of these measurements "needed" by Sapim. I guess I could wait until I have the hubs and rims and then measure and order the spokes, but it would be nice to be able to order everything at the same time.
