@Jericho Kilmanja running is the most natural thing to get your stomach going. probably not the part about going at your limit 😂 but normal running definitely is
I remember a few years ago, how pumped I would be to see a new Workout Wednesday video from Flotrack. Sweat Elite videos are now exceeding that level of excitement for me.
Marathons are so god damn difficult that thousands of years ago some guy did it once and it become a legend. Now these people made it a sport. What a bunch of monsters.
First KM slow? My fastest km I've ever recorded was 3.32 and I definitely wasn't able to sustain anything remotely close to that time after HAHHA! Granted I do weigh 190lbs, but still.
Flotrack has so many pay walls now and even when a workout video is posted it's from some random college team from 6 months ago. Sweat elite pumps out CURRENT content and no stupid music. Just raw running, that's what I come here for. Keep it up!
That girl in the purple top has the best form of the lot I reckon... as a old fat jogger of course I'm an expert!!! All these guys doing constant under 5 minute mile pace is just incredible for your average person. Inspirational stuff!
Very inspiring video ! Due to being a tall and athletic runner I always thought that I could not perform well on long distance races or at altitude and that my prospects were very limited. After having seen Jake Riley I think it is time to change my mind and how I look at myself. Good luck and best wishes for the up-coming Olympic Games.
Brilliant stuff again, Foxy! These session videos are awesome, man. The raw footage without music and just the odd bit of chat between reps is so authentic.
Can we get a Carrie video?! I ran on her team in high school, and I knew she was running with this team now, but actually seeing her in one of these made me so happy!
Absolutely love those videos! So much insight in the training. I am always taking something for my personal training from this videos! The diversity of workouts and out of the box workouts is just great. Trying to implement the ideas of your workouts in my own training.
looks like a good group and Lee troop looks like a great coach. i remember going to a sports bar to watch him break ron clarke’s 5k aus record in 1998. Nice work all around here.
You are absolutely killing it with these videos. Maybe you could be a bit more specific in the description like "8x1km threshold" or "8x1km marathon pace" or whatever they do.. That would be awesome
by jakes pb 2:10 for 42k: (3:05/1k ) its the marathonpace, you see in his moves in the 1k , 3:05 is easy, 2:44 istn (all this pace ist insane for hobbyruners)
one will only ever appreciate this pace if you run yourself. I started running last year and my fastest 1km is around 4.25min. I could only do 1km , lol....
@@jimc5000 , Thanks. I went from 1km to doing at least 3km at that pace. Im finding it EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to get beyond the 3km mark. When I hit 3km my lungs want to explode and legs are trembling like an earthquake waiting to erupt.
My bus stop is 1km away from my home. And I'm always late, so I always end up running to catch it. Four and a half is about my record as for how quickly I can reach the bus stop from exiting my door. I don't think that's wearing a backpack, but I sometimes wear a backpack. Anyway, that's really exhausting, and after 5-10 minutes I start sweating like crazy on the bus, so it's not ideal. I wouldn't recommend running with a backpack. Congratulations on your running time. Sounds real good to me. Although I'm no runner, I'm in fairly good physical shape. You gotta be in decent shape to hit that time.
It's a nice workout that can be ran around 5000m pace. I was able to run 8 at 3:09 average and actually managed 15:42 a month later whIch is pretty much the same pace, very even pace as well. Not much volume for a marathon guy at all, he likely does 8x2km at around 5:50 regularly and 5x3km repeats at around 9:00.
Hey everyone, i have question for the running community: Lately i have been getting into running more and more and i a was wondering if you guys have any tips about where to educate myself about training correctly (youtube channels, books etc.). i'm 24 years old and a pretty athletic guy. i have been into sports all my life, mostly football (soccer) but also tennis skiing etc. and i "learned" different sports pretty fast. But i am asking you guys with regards to running as it seems to be quite an injury prone sport, especially if you start off to quickly. I'm kind of getting into it and want to set myself goals and participate in races. Any recommendations for beginners regarding readings or youtube channels would be great. Also what sports watches would you guys recommend for a beginner? shouldnt be too expensive.. Thanks in advace!!!
Still people haven't learned not to try and keep cool while training, why do you think the guy from the hot African countries do so well, it's not just elevation, it's the heat. By keeping cool you're lowering your heart rate / making it easier which is not the point of training.
That’s one way to do it. I find running with no shirt on when it’s 103 allows my body to adapt to sweating a lot more efficiently. The shirt kind of just traps the moisture and makes the body think it doesn’t need to perspire anymore
Any trainers out there know what kind of pace we should be aiming for if we want to try this workout? I was thinking 10k pace… not sure if they were all aiming for negative splits. Could do 2 @ marathon pace and work from there I suppose. Any tips would be appreciated!
more like 3k-5k pace. 8x1k is an elite session to lift v02 max. You would normally do 1:1 effort to rest. But he is doing less here because he is an olympian marathoner. Even doing 4-6 x 1k (especially for a mid distance runner) is good.
Workouts don’t seem that long for a marathoner. I know he’s tapering and this is probably speed work for him , but I’m curious what kind of longer tempos/long runs to build his aerobic base. Or if he’s doesn’t and he’s just a low mileage marathoner.
Near the beginning and end of the video Lee Troop said there was a more important session coming up on Friday so this might have been more of a tune-up workout. I agree with you, though, this workout seems very low volume for an elite marathoner.
Our volume comes from doing 22 mile long runs each Sunday. Our quality workouts are only 20-30mins and done on tired legs. We have no real “wow” workouts, just basic “bread and butter” ones.
@@leetroop73 thank you so much for replying! Very cool to learn that. Maybe I’ll implement this into my training when I begin doing marathons. Fun fact: Jake was an assistant coach at my high school (Troy High school) before he moved out to Boulder and after he graduated Stanford. I missed being coached by him by a year, but I’ll be rooting for Jake at the games!
Can anyone advise what would be a good nutrition plan to follow for long distance running. I’m currently on a bit of a diet but then find it hard to find the energy for long distance runs. Thank you
there are a lot of videos and documentations but nobody is sure about what they're talking about since nutrition is super complicated. i struggled so much with it. not anorexia. just wanting to have the perfect diet but whenever something is not well done there is hard mental crash/starvation mood. here are my food tips: bread, black tea or coffee with lot of white sugar, cornmeal or quinoa or any other similar complex carb grain, beans, carots or sweet potatoes, roasted nuts, chia seeds, broccoli or spinach or kale, whole milk, fatty fish or tuna, meats but not sure about meats and fish also i recommend cooking them with the least frying as possible so with water
“Push push push” was just for him to get up over the bridge, but then I told once over the bridge to “open up and roll it out” Definitely did not want him to redline it. And yes, it is a golf course.
No criticism of running form or anything. Really enjoying these sessions, and just hearing the rhythmic slapping of shoes on the ground. These are great.
