How can you run longer without getting tired? Long distance running such as marathon and ultra marathon requires specific training to increase endurance and allow you to run long distance almost without effort. Basically, zone 2 hocus pocus stuff. Those back-to-back long runs will get longer and longer, but you will somehow manage to be less tired during - reaching a state where you could keep going all day. .. And all night. … And some of the next day too!
Now let’s be clear, I’m not saying being able to run long distance such as a marathon without getting tired is easy - quite the contrary, it is very difficult. To “make it easy” is in itself quite an achievement. It requires persistence in training, hard work, and patience. But it can be done!
And today, I want to discuss about some tips to help you reach this. These tips I’ve discovered while racing 100 milers every month for the past 2 years. They are personal, and although they are quick to give, they are not quick or even easy to follow - but they are simple (and hopefully, helpful!).
Lastly, as mentioned in the video, Nora my wife, as been such a great partner through these years of racing. Crewing, pacing, training together. She is a wonderful person - and if you are not familiar with her, have a look at my Ouray 100, Badwater 135 or Leadville races. She is a wonderful person who always gives to other - and she’s been nominated as Best Pacer of the year by ultrasignup. Taking the 2 min to go vote for her would be greatly appreciated as none of these videos would be possible without her tremendous support!
** Please Vote For Nora (Honora Einhorn) as Best Pacer Here:**
Sadly the voting period is over, but leave a comment below to thank her!!!
As always - Thanks for watching and remember -
Work Hard!
Believe in yourself!
Push your limits!

Very much what I needed to hear. I’m in my mid 50s, good health, cyclist, etc. Never fat but only started exercising purposefully starting at age 40 with my triathlon wife. I want to be so “hard core” compared to the avg slug that I never want to walk or do anything but match my avg tempo. Love the willful suffering but I’m learning I can no longer do that. Just getting over a bad sprang and now having bilateral runner’s knee. I’m injured more and more and that means time off and loss of fitness. I keep reading a watching about the benefits but just can’t imagine staying in zone 2... but I need it badly. Thanks for the motivation. I smell a T-shirt, “Finish Fresh!”

Loving your videos. Watched your video of the ultra in Louisiana Loup garoua which I'm training for and plan on doing next year. Did a long run today which is only 7 miles and I'm training using heart rate. Was a high school Louisiana state champion back in the day so mentally running slow has been the biggest challenge after taking 15 years off from long distance. It's coming back really quick. Could barely run 2 miles two months ago. Just trying to stay injury free.

Great video, thanks. A couple of comments on breathing: 1) there is definitely research on benefits of nose breathing, e.g. book "Oxygen Advantage" goes into a lot of detail on this. 2) there is some good evidence that odd-number-of-steps breathing pattern is better than even, so something like breathe in on 3 steps, breathe out on 2. This is better because when we breathe out, there is usually a bit of weakening in the core, and with even pattern, we tend to then make that happen on the same side all the time. Going with odd distributes this between left and right. Incidentally, it avoids the problem of side stitches that some people experience when running. P.S. Voted for Nora!

Can’t thank you enough for your videos Simon, enjoy your humor and have certainly heeded your advice regarding: training schedule, gear, interval/hill workouts, foot care, fueling, and long runs. Always tried to push hard on every run, but once I listened to your advice was able to comfortably build up back-to-back long run days, peaking at 35/16. Ran my first 50 mile trail ultra this past weekend, despite getting lost on the mountain and running 56 miles, felt strong and fresh at the finish. As a 64 year old, thought this would be a one-and-done bucket list item, but now feel I can do more. Mahalo again!

Hey! Absolutely LOVE your videos. Spent hours listening to your advice on ultra runs. I've started upping my miles but have slight pain on the inside of my ankles/feet recently. I think I also have over pronation so have started doing exercises to strengthen this. Do you plan on making a video focussing on recovery/strengthening for long running? Cheers mate!
@runningwithsimon
@runningwithsimon 5 месяцев назад
Yes but you may want to look into something for this specifically rather than what I'd suggest for "general" strengthening. I suggest (as like, baseline) strength session 1-2 per week with things like squats, lunge, toe raise, steps and core. I'll make a video about that someday. But you're doing the right thing for sure - you feel something is wrong, you work on fixing this and it's fine to dial down mileage until it's resolved. Recovery I might someday, but honestly what I do is so boring and ordinary that I wonder if I'm in the best place to talk about it. It's mostly rest, stretch, massage if sore muscle, ice if inflamed tendon, food, and dialing down mileage as needed. I know people that go 'fancier' but I've never felt anything really helped with recovery nearly as well as (unfortunately) time and rest
@runningwithsimon
@runningwithsimon 5 месяцев назад
Oh and just to add - sounds like you are trying to fix your form too? I'm no expert and haven't seen you, but sometimes they suggest insoles / inserts to help - although I wouldn't know what would fit you or even if it's the rights thing or not.

Thanks for the reminder of going slow. When I restarted running I was doing this at least for one long run per week. Then I discovered trail running and forgot about those important training tip. It is all about collecting elevation and never walk uphill... Will give it a try early next season to go slow on the mountain rather than pace. Will need to do this without my running partner (he is a machine and easily outperforms me in distance, elevation and speed... But I learned at least not to overpace myself) Great video - thumbs up

One of the thing I really like about trail running is that I don’t think about pace anymore. I just go with the flow and focus on how I feel rather than pushing through pain.
@mariusm2402

I'm still in the phase of pushing through the pain @@runningwithsimon 😁. As I want to increase my trails from today 25km to 40-50km per day this year targeting a multi day tour crossing the alps I need to learn running slow(er) again.

I spent so much of my life aiming to run at a higher HR. And I’d be exhausted and cramping after races. This last year I was training for a 25k mountain race, and I ran too hard and limped the last bit of the race on super cramped calves. Two months later I ran my first 50k on a lark and told myself to listen to all the experts and just run zone 2 no matter what. I was so fresh after the race. After 8 hours!!! I felt fine! This is such good, affirming advice.

@@runningwithsimon Absolutely! I was good during my training for the 25k mountain race last year. I really did force myself to run in Zone 2 for most of my runs and I did see steady improvement because of it. I did manage to take an hour off my previous year's time. I just paid for it with being absolutely wrecked. It was a mile up from my altitude, more vert and more technical than what we have local, and there was no cover and it was super Texas hot. I probably would have had to hike all the uphills if I wanted to stay low HR.

@runningwithsimon

Thanks! I have a video about the specific gear I used for Leadville 100 - which is my average kit for a race (see link below). I'll probably do more gear review in the future focusing on one topic at the time (e.g., shoes, poles - how to shop for the right one). Because I think sometimes we need to select gear based on the specific of what you run (e.g., the right shoe for badwater 135 (road) is not the same as Ouray 100 (rocky mountains) vs. HURT (jungle)). So it's a little more nuanced than "this is the perfect running vest". ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-N1LAWdUqbWE.html

I didn't go through it much, but it's worth looking at different definition of "zone 2" too - some go with heart rate, other by perceived effort, and other with comparison to your say, 5k pace. Heart rate is a great way to start, but isn't perfect either

Thanks for the video these are very helpful for me, as well as gives me motivation! Ive been training and im trying to run slower but it feels counter intuitive, but im doing it! My question for you is, during a week of training do you reserve your slowruns for the long runs only?, and do you have higher tempo days where you are closer to your goal pace?
@runningwithsimon
@runningwithsimon 5 месяцев назад
Thanks! And yes, I do reserve this more 'very slow' 'I'm trying to reach my destination as fresh as possible' for my back-to-back long runs. If you've seen my 'How to make a training plan video' these would be my saturday sunday. Then I had some speed work or higher intensity (I think Tuesday Thurday in the video?). For the other 'medium' distance run, I'd go at a comfortable pace but faster than this 'sustainable' pace. I think there'd be little benefit to use that pace for a shorter run.

Run like a Zulu warrior. They used to surprise/shock their enemies by turning up unexpectedly after travelling by foot over very long distances - fresh enough to fight and win a battle. How ? - by run /walking. Lord Robert Baden -Powell ( who created the Scouting Movement) noted this in Africa and introduced "Scouts pace" into the Scouting movement as a skill to learn

I absolutely love these videos. I'm stepping up from 50ks this year, and want to finally train right, instead of winging it. What you said about the slow marathon switched on a lightbulb! I ran my first marathon at a 6 hour race. I always thought it was the best race of my life because I'd run a few 50ks earlier in the year. Now I know it's because, though I went out of the gate too fast for the first 6 miles, I wound up pacing an injured runner the next 12 miles, at a much slower pace. He dropped at that point, and I realized I could still make cut off, IF i could run the last 3 laps HARD, faster than I'd run in training. I banged out the last 9 miles at 2 minutes a mile faster then goal pace, on rolling semi technical trails, sprinted to the finish, realized I had 3 minutes left, and ran back to cheer on the rest of the runners and sprint in AGAIN with the last finisher. It was incredible, but I think if I'd kept up my normal (slightly too fast) pace, I would have been shuffling by the end like I normally do!

For me what keeps me running slow is the breathing cycle. I do a cycle of 5 steps. 3 steps in, 2 steps out. This also means the foot hitting the ground on your outbreath alternates every cycle, which according to ChiRunning techniques helps prevent injury. Really helps me! Will keep the run slower than slow tip in mind too. Thank yiu!

I was so pleasantly surprised when I switched to 2 min walk / 3 min run. I was truly finishing longer distances much fresher, & my overall pace ended up better & more consistent as opposed to running a solid 15 miles & then sluggishly “power hiking” the rest. My last 100K actually felt fairly good up to about 50 miles with this strategy.

There is a physiological reason breathing in through the nose helps you run better. I do not remember the specifics, but essentially the air taken in through the nose is filtered and sent to the lungs differently than with the mouth; it helps cool us better and makes the air more humid and salty before it gets to the lungs so the oxygen transfer is more efficient. Since it gets more oxygen into your bloodstream faster, you can maintain the the removal of lactate from your muscles better.
