I remember speed skating at the Olympic Oval in Calgary (the '88 Olympic 
facilities).  There were some elite skaters there training.  I couldn't skate as 
slow as they could.  They skated lap after lap in absolute slow motion.  Once 
they finished with the technique training, I couldn't skate anywhere near as 
fast as they could.

There's times when slow is good, and times when fast is good.  Slow training 
leads to fast and good.  Fast training just leads to fast sometimes.
