      Left it in my dust! Someone’s ran that very same parkrun in 12minutes with a dog mind so maybe his owner was the one slowing it down 😂

    That was a cool video, but of a change from the strictly training content in the SJD style that I enjoyed.
    If you like Greek gyros there's several good places I'd recommend in Britain but the real deal in Greece is better, perhaps you should consider running the Athens marathon, the place where it all started! Has not been done by content creators as much as perhaps it should, and am sure plenty of people would be interested!

    Hi ben, 100k still sounds a lot for next week, also when comparing to 180 peak. Have you tried a really low/easy taper?

    • @BenIsRunning
      @BenIsRunning  Рік тому +1

      I have a general rule of 50% of peak week for race week. Any more then I still carry fatigue and any less and I feel sluggish. All about finding out what works best for you.

      @BenIsRunning  Рік тому +1

      Yes, as long as you treat it like a training session. Ie run as hard as you can without tapering your training and not killing yourself so your a goal race is hampered I think it’s a great idea :)
