-San Diego Rock n Roll half marathon Sunday June 2nd! -First half marathon race with a 8 week training plan. Peak weakly mileage 52 miles -Targeting a 1:37 finish -Age 45, weight 212lbs, height 5’ 10” Let’s get it! 🏃 👊🏽
Another solid talk, Nate! I tend to go through the spectrum of percentages through a 16week block: 4 weeks in each - 90/10, 80/20, 70/30 and 60/40. That way my body has a month to adapt to each intensity and then peak at the end. As you have alluded to, the higher the percentage, recovery and nutrition become more critical. Catch up soon 👋🏾
Hey coach! Appreciate the videos Prepping for the Rock 'n Rock Marathon in San Diego next weekend. Last year I went 2:56:08 (a big PR), but still missed the BQ by about 90 seconds. This year, I'm going for sub-2:50!
Outstanding work dropping that 2:56.08. A superior time and you most definitely are going to crack that sub 2:50 and get that BQ you are aiming for. Keep up the great work! 👊👊👊💪
I’m training to break 2:35. I recently ran the Wisconsin Marathon with a time of 2:40 at 40 years old. Going to really focus on speed and strength training.
GREAT job having dropped that 2:35 at Wisconsin, heard that course is a great one as is the race. VERY well done having run that fast at age 40. Wishing you continued success in your training and racing. Keep me posted on your progress. 💪💪💪👊💪👊
Thanks coach very useful video. As an older runner (50) I find faster intervals are more likely to injure me whereas I never get injured running threshold sessions. Training for the Brighton half marathon next spring
Sup coach, I ran sub 3:30 at the Coalfax marathon this weekend. I followed a lot of your advice, ie. 10 day taper, running faster than race pace and a lot of the physiological aspect. Just wanna say thanks and I appreciate the content!!
I ran my First marathon two weeks ago (03:29h) In my 17 week Training Plan i only did 4 Tempo Workouts. All other runs I ran in lower heart rate (125 bpm). It worked well for me. For my Next Race I will implement More tempo Workouts and excited on the Results. Greetings from 🇩🇪
One thing I don’t think beginner runners consider with 80/20 is that they potentially only run 4 days a week, so the 3 days off are in effect easy days. Obviously you can’t quantify days off as part of your training percentage but personally I think if you only train 4 days a week you can afford to make those days a little harder due to the days off. If your training 6-7 days a week then yeah 80/20 is probably more appropriate until you can handle more
I've just been building my aerobic base last couple months but I def think the 60/40 rule will get you faster. I feel my endurance has improved drastically as I was able to run 10 miles pretty easy but when I try to do a 5k time trial I can't sustain as fast of a pace which is disappointing. Also I think doing the 80/20 rule puts people more at risk of running in the grey zone and not making their "easy runs easy and hard runs hard"
Keep up the superior work Patrick. Definitely a smart move working toward 60/40 if you really want to get to the next level in this sport, no short cuts. 80/20 is a general rule and will work for most runners but to climb higher FAR more is required in the anaerobic side of the house. Appreciate you sharing your thoughts for others to read as well. 👊💪👊💪👊
I’m trying to break 4 hr in marathon and although my 20 week block starts on Monday I’m excited to change the paradigm and run faster. I’ve been repeating wk1 of 4 hour plan and feel so much stronger running faster at like a 67/33 mix
I would take a week off..you won't lose any fitness with 7 days off...light stretching, hydrate well and get some good sleep during that week then start back up your next build up. Hope this helps and wishing you continued success
good training talk as always Nathan 😃 in reply to the question I'm pushing for a 3:10 still. I'm my last training block I was running a 40k long run with 3x10k at MGP (4:30/km) every other week x6 towards the end of the training block. I failed in Manchester with fatigue from mid race, so now I will push that 3x10k up to 4:15/km for the whole block every other weekend, so should get 12 in. Though it will take a while to get up to that pace but plan to be there at the end. Do you think that's a good approach ?
Great work RTP. You are definitely fit and using some legitimate strategies in that long run. Yes, good approach. Try also running every 4th mile during your 40K runs at 5k race pace, I used that method quite a bit, will teach you to REALLY get out of your comfort zone and react to significantly faster paces while your tired. Keep up the great work. You are doing well under 3:10 soon. Keep me posted. 👊💪👊💪
@@rundreamachieve well I appreciate your backing. I need to reduce the breaks too between the 10k stints or even not have them (when I try to quickly hydrate up so I don't have to carry water/electrolytes)
Sir I have a question is that sir my PB of 1500m is 4:05 minutes and I am trying to break sub 4 minute but sir my event is 1500m why my threshold workout is short range reps why long reps is prefer plz reply sir plz reply sir
Sir i try to break sub 4 minute 1500m but at present I do all my threshold workout 6-7x 1k in about 3:25-3:30 , so sir i will move to do long reps like 6-7x1200-1600 reps at threshold pace or i continue reps of 6-7x1k . Plz suggest me
Sir when an athlete do 6x1k reps in about 3:00-3:10 minutes for 1500m event but sir on event day he ran 1500m in about 3:45 minute mean he ran nearly 1k around 2:35 but sir why all athletes not run threshold workout at their race pace plz reply sir please reply sir
