The shot of Mo grabbing his stomach and his bottom and running behind the bush made me laugh out loud. Love the bit of humor you put into these videos.
My fastest half marathon was when i massively carb-loaded beforehand and took gels during the race. If i don't fuel myself i under-perform and feel faint afterwards. Which shows that we are all different. Running has taught me to listen to my body.
Guilty of a lot of these, I have a 5k PB attempt in a few weeks and this is great info to implement during my training runs and going into my pb attempt in February (sub 20) Thanks!
I once had a couple of beers and a friend asked if I fancied a run. Hardest run I've ever done. 😂 I can only explain it as it was an extreme amount of effort to run a very normal everyday pace.
I'm one month from my 1/2 marathon in Brooklyn and I was able to do 13.3 miles yesterday on my long run! This will be my second race ever. Feeling super hyped!
I love listening to the podcasts and watching the videos. One thing I've noticed over time is that like me runners over 50+ nearing 60 are seldom mentioned. As an older runner who has done marathons I think the golden generation need a mention 😢
Snowy and icy describes all my outdoor runs from October to April here in northern Norway. No need to turn to the treadmill if the roads are snowy 🤷♂️
Some great advice here :) Worth noting that proper running tops don't need to cost a fortune, for UK viewers, Primark had some fantastic short and long sleeve tops for about £5 each..... Compared to normal sports brands at £20+
@@shaunaisaJellyBean il look into those! I have belaga at the moment but need some more and don't really want to pay a fortune for shorter daily runs! Thanks for the tip 👍
During Ramadan I usually only run 4-8 miles a day right before I break my fast on the afternoon. No long runs at all but it's like a reset month for me because it's the same pace all month long and no intervals or trail runs . The only thing that sucks is I cannot race an ultra that month or weeks after
Great tips… however sports physio told me science shows when re-habbing an injury the brain needs to feel this pain to a level of 1-3 out of 10 any more then it’s a negative and not productive but in the 1-3 is optimal then the 3 will become 2 and then 1 and hopefully eventually zero. I thought this was odd so went 2nd opinion and seems he was right. Body can also adapt to run on fats just need to cross it over so fasted running to a degree is fine and beneficial.
@@runningchannel The science of re habbing is fascinating, obviously rest is best for some types of injuries but the majority a level of exercise to a prescribed pain level and to continue at that pain level until notice pain drops then increase exercise effort to same pain level. so if a 3/10 drops to a 2/10 after a period of time then increase load to get back to 3. Although exercise might not be the sport or activity that caused the condition. eg a patella tendinopathy. if casued by basketball not playing a full court press session LOL.
Strong disagree re: fasted runs. Even eating something small, it takes me 2-3+ hours before i'm able to run more than a couple of minutes without developing a stitch and feeling my food sloshing around. I think people are wildly different in this aspect, and there's no right or wrong answer (with the exception of something like marathon+ distance)
Some people eat close to running because you can get used to having to digest food while in motion. It helps people that want to do long distance events
4. Is esentially not true for Z2 runs where the body won't go into anaerobic glycogenesis. You can do fasted runs as long as you nail the intensity correctly
I realised after Christmas how much food can have an effect. I set a 5k PB on the 23rd, and didnt run until the 27th after a couple of heavy eating days. It was like running through treacle, i couldn't believe the effect it had.
Guys, please can you advise how to get around needing the toilet when fueling before a run? I have stopped eating and drinking before any runs because I was getting caught out far from home or needing the loo was affecting my performance!
We had a heatwave here last week, temps up around 35c and over, and the amount of people I saw running past my house in that weather. Oof. I don't know how they do it. It made me nervous.
I love the "8 hours sleep". All the youtube fitness gurus use it. How? Been retired for 6 years and haven't had 8 hours sleep since I suffered from depression over 10 years ago. (Couldn't get out of my bed then)
Number 4: I don't eat before a run or race (including marathons). I'm completely fat-adapted (no carbs or plants in 3 yrs). All my runs (>100K/wk) are in a fasted state.
@@jassaljs This September, I will be doing a five-day water fast. In those five days, I will be running five marathons in five days, completely fat-adapted, only water and electrolytes.
I don't think they have much control over the ads. I presume you mean Harvard and I guess you have either missed or ignored the news coming out about that University.
