My favorite lesson from this video is people are kind! I started crying when I saw that 3:00 pacer just cheering you... they can probably run faster, but they are running for other people! Also you, Floris, dedicating this to your family... after health, family is the most important thing in the world.

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Totally, such a supportive team of pacers and crowd. Totally family is so important! Appreciate you

@ShannonSheeks-md7ze 2 месяца назад

Wow! That was awesome! Thank you for recording that- I was set to run Tokyo 2024 as well and was sidelined 3 weeks before the race with a stress fracture in my hip. Watching your video brought me to tears and it was incredible to see the race through you! Congrats! You are inspiring!

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Damn, sorry to hear about your hip stress fracture Shannon, wishing you a speedy recovery. Glad you enjoyed the video and still experienced the Tokyo marathon in some way. All the best

@Keeperholder2 2 месяца назад

Favorite quote from this video "Don't ever underestimate the marathon". Sums it all up pretty well.

Spot on takeaway

@davidstella6418 2 месяца назад

Way to dig deep in those tough miles. Always impressive to see how you pull it off with some major obstacle in your way. Lots of inspiration here for my marathon in 1 week! Thanks Floris!

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Never a dull moment with some of those challenging miles David. Good luck with your marathon, don't let any major obstacles get in your way!

@davidstella6418 2 месяца назад

@@FlorisGierman I didn't! But I'll be lying if I said it was easy at the end there. Especially with the wind and the warm temps. I really had some doubts around 22 and especially at 24 but I was able to battle through and finish with a 7 min PR. I'll take it.....onto the next!

@moe_huntin8946 2 месяца назад

“Mind in the right place” that is such a huge part of distance sports. I’m new to distance sports and it truly is mind over matter. Thank you for your videos and podcast, I appreciate what you do!

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Totally, as much as it's important to be physically fit, the mind in the right place can help you dig deeper when needed. Thank you!

@jimjuliahollister7026 2 месяца назад

It was so helpful to see this as I prepare for my first marathon at age 63. Thanks for the tips on nutrition, and the reminder not to underestimate the marathon.

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Exciting first marathon ahead, you will ALWAYS remember your first marathon :) Glad it was helpful! Enjoy your training and racing journey ahead.

@markjones3332 2 месяца назад

Floris, found your channel on my way to running my first marathon this June. Thank you for sharing your perspective during the race and your training. You’re inspirational in more ways than one! Keep charging!

Happy to hear Mark, means a lot to me. Enjoy your marathon training and racing journey. You will ALWAYS remember your first marathon!

@kristoffercedric4565 2 месяца назад

I've seen a lot of follow along marathon vids, but this is one of the best ones yet. You look so relaxed and positive while racing! Truly inspirational man, subbed!

@espinosb 2 месяца назад

Floris, I discovered your zone 2 training video last summer and that inspired me to increase my weekly mileage! That snowballed into beginning to believe I could do marathon...leading to applying for the Tokyo Marathon...and then to FINISHING the Tokyo Marathon (my first one)!! Thank you for being an inspiration to this community and I'm already looking forward to the next one!!

@hannahinhealth 2 месяца назад

"Run the mile you are in" this mindset is what keeps me going on long runs too ❤ I dream of running Tokyo one day. Congrats Floris!!

@RunWithCway Месяц назад

@fiorisGierman the videos you made that remain etched in my mind the most are the Low HR training vids where you are running a sub 3 while talking to the viewers the whole time. I know all that work you put in is what makes it seem easy to you, and hard to some of us! Great work and may God allow you to continue to shine your light upon others!

Congratulations for your sub3 Floris. I ran sub3 also last year (2023 edition); you transported me to the race again. Thank you. Many many zigzags on the track. So you've completed your 5th too. I'm going to London 2025 to complete the majors, with Sydney yet on my pocket. Listen to you on my next long run (love The Extramilest Show).

@Awhimai45 2 месяца назад

@JavierISampedroTNF 2 месяца назад

This video brought me memories when I ran it in 2016, it was my very first marathon also. I managed to make it my goal of sub 4hours but after km 33 it was tough but totally worth it in the end. Well done on your race and sure you enjoyed all the vibes from Tokyo streets! congrats once again!

@FabianVanL 2 месяца назад

Awesome work, Floris! I am going for my very first marathon this May. Pace will be very different, but I'm really looking forward to it after watching this!

@severiner7168 2 месяца назад

Well done on a great marathon! You worked out where you were in terms of fitness and just stayed with that. I was impressed how relaxed you looked. Loved seeing the supporters and what lovely pacers! I have a marathon coming up and the training is not going as planned because of managing an injury so my takeaway for the day will be, run the race I am able to do rather than the one I had hoped for. That will be my best chance of having the best experience possible. Thank you

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Great approach for your upcoming race day. Do what you can, health first, running performance will follow. Sending positive healthy running vibes your way!

Glad it was helpful! Looking forward to seeing you in London, join our shakeout run if you’re around the day before the race.

@Roman-hs2pq 2 месяца назад

Congrats with the race ! And thanks for all the valuable info about Zone 2 training and especially for the link to Zones calculator where you put your age, resting and max. HR. Before October 12th, 2023, I was depressed as hell, unfit and skinny fat, burned out at my job with relationships that were cracking. Now I’m less depressed, in my best form, sharing a new hobby with my girlfriend. My easy runs are in 9min/mile instead of 13m/m, I can run sub 2 half, and average 30miles per week training for my first marathon.

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

So awesome to hear about your progress! Running is not just changing your pace, but your life too. Keep on crushing it Roman!

@jeffwatson776 2 месяца назад

Congratulations!!! Big takeaway was just being able to enjoy the race and take it all in. Marathons are tough, even when you are fully trained. Run the mile you are in. Hope to be there one day.

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Thanks Jeff and great takeaways. So important to not just focus on finish time, but take the entire race day experience in. Running the mile you're in can help stay present. Hope you get into Tokyo soon! Cheers

@dobby92 2 месяца назад

Great work!! Very impressive result given that you were not training too much prior to it :D and I really enjoy your recording, Tokyo street view looked amazing! The slowmo shots were cool, but maybe a bit too many of them, it would be cooler to see the cheering crowd in a normal speed :D

So happy for you brother, proud that you dug deep and finished strong - sub 3!!! You balance so much, and give your all to the running community, I am happy the marathon gods smiled fondly on you at Tokyo ... 6:00 "I'm not going to lie, it's getting tougher" ... we can see you dig deep. And the Tokyo marathon, dude - this looks amazing and I can't wait to run it. Next London, for #6 ... Flospeed

@realgrilledsushi 2 месяца назад

That was inspirational! I remembered you holding back tear when you finished Berlin. Learned alot of what to prepared for a marathon although I’ll be taking my half-marathon instead in two months. That was amazing, congrats to your accomplishment!

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

A marathon surely strips away all layers and the raw emotions easily come up. It's part of the journey that some other runners also experience. It's not easy to put vulnerability in videos, but those low and high feelings are what makes a marathon special. Thanks @realgrilledsushi

@WorldT 2 месяца назад

THat is really well done. IT is always a good challenge to see how one does even if the training is less than what was planned before. for most part everything has their ups and downs. but in general a good amazing time to finish on such a major marathon, I have my first major this year, Chicago later in October, after doing Ottawa and Grandmas too this year. thanks on sharing

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

You'll have a blast at Chicago, a great World Major to race. Surely never a dull moment in a marathon, with plenty of ups and downs. Enjoy your training and upcoming races. Cheers

@Magnoliamsed 2 месяца назад

❤it made me cry to see how many people are so brave and train to run a marathon. I am a follower of your RU-vid and podcast and I have learned so much. I just started my running journey. My take away is “we can do hard things, but we have to train for it” thank you so much for all the inspiration.

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Well done on your running journey so far and that's a great takeaway Magnoliamsed! Enjoy your runs out there. Cheers

@mmw58 2 месяца назад

favorite lesson i learned as im training for my first half marathon is that it's all mental and nobody can push you to do it. it's all you!

@SarangShamshery 2 месяца назад

Great race recap Floris. Congrats on your 5th star. It was brilliant meeting you on the Shakeout run in Tokyo. Awaiting Kipchoge’s interview now. Happy to see you finish sub 3. Always a good reminder to increase mileage. I was too hovering around 24mpw pre Tokyo. Hope to be better prepared for my next one😊

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Stoked to see you at the shakeout Sarang, hope you enjoyed the rest of your time in Tokyo. Surely some opportunity for higher training volume in your future training cycles too. See you next time in Seattle and we'll go for a run. Cheers

@topppy257 2 месяца назад

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Having fun and joy in our running journey is so important. That LA marathon with Kofuzi was a special day, seeing him dig so deep to run strong to the finish line. I appreciate you 🙏

@FlorisGierman 2 месяца назад

Thank you! For Tokyo the time difference with LA was 17 hours, so I flew in further ahead. Left LA on Wednesday, arrived at the hotel Thursday end of day. Friday bib pick up, Saturday shakeout run, Sunday race. As soon as I depart the airport, I put the local time zone on my watch and try to force myself to adjust. I remove caffeine for that 24 hours, wear blue light blocking glasses and bring face mask / ear plugs to sleep in the plane. Hope that helps.

awesome time and what a great race! i similarly needed to be alone with my pain from 20km-35km (till the final out and back). Thought I saw you checking out at Keio Plaza hotel but I wasn't sure (wasn't on socials the last days before race). Darn, should have asked you for a photo.

Small world! I did spend 2 days in the Keio Plaza hotel to record several podcasts. Next time hit me up and we'll talk running. Hope you enjoyed your time in Tokyo! Cheers
