IAAF opens gates to training/technique archives
The International Association of Athletics Federations today announced that it’s making available about 14 years’ worth of its New Studies in Athletics articles online, publicly, for the first time. (The last two years will be available only through subscription.) Still, this is big news for coaches and athletes. Masters too. Although I like to remind people how our training differs, there’s still a lot to learn from elite-level sources. And sound technique applies to all age groups. IAAF sez: “The NSA Archive is a growing resource of information. In its initial stage articles from 1986 to 1999 are accessible. Articles from 2000 to 2004 will be available early 2007.” Good for IAAF! and good for us! An early Christmas gift.

Ken,
Any luck using the search engine for the IAAF archived materials? It appears that you must have the article number to access the article. It would be useful if IAAF described the numbering system, or provided a list
to select from.
