- Starting to aim my workouts more towards marathon pace and distance. Today I ran 8 x 1K with 1 minute rest in between. It's all about the time on your feet while running in the marathon.

Come on bro way to be freaking raw with it. I'm glad I get to watch this and then copy you on the workout today. Though I didn't win the Honolulu Sweepstakes, im still training for a Marathon (Done lost me mind mate) to just put myself in your shoes. It ain't like it was back in the day that's for sure, but you're stronger for it soon! Godspeed Cap'n Symmonds!
haha thanks for watching!!
Man I've had workouts where I would like to bottle it up and have it forever, and then workouts where I just want to quit and my splits on the last repeats are slower and I'm just not feeling it. Kudos for posting this video where it's just not your day and showing us you're a human just like the rest of us.
Watching this just got me so pumped cause I just did 3x3k @ 3:35 w/ 2:00 rest this weekend. Fun to see someone like you doing similar workouts as me! And for reference, my marathon PR is 2:47:58 so I'd say you're in a good place 😉
nice PR! way faster than me :D
I am 58 Yr old and just ran 2.44 then 2.51 then 2.59 then 3.09 for 4 x the half mile. Trying to get ready for Senior Nationals. I want to get back to where I can run 2.25 Half.
great for you
holy crap! old man goals right there buddy, keep it up my man
Awesome. I am shooting for sub-2:30 (age 61) in next years masters nationals. Right now 10x 38 sec for 200s hurts but I have a year....
Awesome i wish we could do some speed work together. Been working out alone but gonna try and get brave and jump in with the younger runners. Even if i finish last its gonna improve my time so much
solid workout!!
My goal is to go under 3 for the upcoming Honolulu marathon as well! Maybe I'll get to see you there. keep up the great work
1minute recover. I AM DEAAAAAD🤯🤯
Tough workout to do by yourself
Ks are torture for 800 guys :P
it was!!
@@freestyle9368 what do you mean?
Great stuff Nick, seriously thanks to these vlogs I got an extra push to keep me going running at least every weekend now. Ah yeah father time just catches up. Just gotta accept the aging process. That haze don't help either I started coughing even before doing any real work hahaha.
sorry I'm just getting to this now. BUT excited to be making videos again!!
Nice workout. I was happy to be able to get through a 5 x 1k workout earlier in this training session (at a much slower pace and a much older body). Good luck with the smoke - I have some friends in the PNW that are also dealing with it (including having to cut some workouts).
thank you!!
1 minute rest is pretty savage here. Great job!
First of Nick's videos I've watched.... good workout and awesome production quality 👍
really nice to follow your train for the marathon, great filming and edit, you get better at that aspect too :)
Nick, when you ran 1:42 how many MPW were you doing? I would think that 8 x 1km @ 3:30ish would be manageable for a 1;42 guy? BTW I'm a fan.
I ran 60-70 miles per week the majority of my career
He ran 1.42 in 2012 Olympics, finishing fifth in the finals
1 minute recovery!!! Respect mate
Two years later, but yes! my thoughts exactly. Pace is one thing but the man is hardly taking a break at all!
A tough session there- especially on your own.... good mental strength to get it done.. Don't be disappointed with your pace.... I'm sure that'll come... :)
This footage is crispy
Do you think 1K repeats are the golden standard for aerobic work?
Possibly, I feel like 800 reps are easier to push yourself on though
1k's are quite short for marathon training. I'm tagging along with a marathon group (800m runner myself). We do track sessions like: 4x 2k (1min rest); 4k-2k- 2k; 1200-1600-2000-1600-1200 ladder.
I think the purpose of these 1k's is to reach the vo2 max and 2k's kind of go a bit too long to reach it all the way without seriously overdoing it so are usually done at a slower pace for LT work. Which is more important for marathon training anyway.
Not sure if you're saying you approve or disapprove of longer intervals for marathon training...
Anyway, the pace should be around 10k pace.
i approve of them for sure but they work you differently is all im saying
Awesome nick!!
Just watched your Citius Mag Podcast... when's the vlog with the 25 half court shot challenge coming out??
ha! coming soon!!!
Fucking amazing video!! Keep it up
I do 5x1K cross workout with 3:30min rest per kilometre in 3:00-3:05min today. I am 17 👌🏼
at 17 Nick could run backwards at 2.30 minute 1k, while drinking beer.
Nice workout! If it were me I'd try lowering the rest and decreasing the velocity a tad though, maybe like 3:07s with 1:30 rest for more race specificity. Up to you/your coach though
Thanks for your answer Nick :) Yes, true words. My goal for the next weeks is to limited my rest until this workout to 2:00-2:30 minutes :) Have a great week ^^
nice!!
Awesome video footage!
Loved the video!
Boyyy. I am a senior in high school and last week I averaged 3:10 for a 5 by 1k workout and 2 min rest.
Yeah he's just not good now, which is fine. He always struggled with these kind of workouts and he seems to have aged pretty quickly. I mean even when he was in 1:42 shape, he was talking about doing these at 3:00 with two minutes rest - our whole top 5 could easily do that kind of workout, we regularly do 8x1k at 3:12-3:20 with 45s rest. He just has a different body type and different strengths.
solid running!
How's your weight going down? Not exact numbers. I mean it'll help to go down to your "fight weight". Keep up preparing 💪🏻🏃🏻
Looking good, Nick! Is it true that you're gonna be at the Boardman Spartan Invitational next week? If so, I'm excited to meet you!!
You can do it man. Look at other guys who are the same age as you. Definitely not as heavy as you or does the amount of weightlifting as you do but plenty of guys your age are still world class. You can be too
Awesome work:)
keep it up bro
Dang nice session, especially with such short recovery times. Are you on Strava? I'd really be keen on tracking your workouts. I like to race 10K and 21K, and am just a little slower than you are for long distance (38:31 and 1:26:29). I'd love to learn!
"a marathon is about as long as it gets" @1:28
Ooooh, Nick. 😂
You're so cute.
What a great first marathon!
Now that I've (finally) joined the cool crowd & subscribed, I'm cheering for you & your next goal in the 100m!
Aaaand, then you can switch it up again & join us back in distance for your first Ultra. 😉
Too good 💪
I feel like for this workout you probably have to take air quality into consideration. That very well could have lead to you not feeling great and maybe not running as well as you wanted.
Haha I had my first ten Mile. It was awesome. And question. Who would win in a head to head marathon. Kenenisa bekele or eluid kipchoge?
kipchoge would smash the shit out of bekele
Eliud cause he almost broke 2
Not to mention he DID beat him in a head to head marathon lol
Nick B yup
ten milers are LONG! Kipchoge fo sho
Idk but I think that's pretty good off of only 1 min rest!
Nick, I invite you to come do a week of training with me in upstate New York... the Adirondack region in particular!
Great stuff. You may have covered it in another video, but some of your pre-workout warmup would be cool to see too. Also, now that you're a marathoner are you gonna start putting things in miles instead of Ks? ;-)
Why would he change to a inferior measurement system that almost nobody (relatively) uses
How long is a marathon?
David Stewart 42.195km
Said nobody. Ever. 😜
Nick looks like you lost a little weight & if you have what is your weight now
How long was your rest? What mileage do you plan on peaking at for Honolulu?
Please can do you 4 100 meters relay
First and foremost I think when you're running it should be fun we lose ourselves when we start timing so much like as for me I had to knock down my time which is my miles I was usually hitting 15 miles up every 3 days but now I'm only doing 9 miles every 3 days and on Sunday or Saturday I'll hit up 25 mile up which is out cold like I'll start from one into the bridge and go all the way around to the other end of the bridge the other side of the bridge I don't really time it or nothing it'll take me a couple hours two or three or four but I'll get it done but I'll hardly tie myself anymore like I used to that's why I started running cuz it was so fun that's why don't I myself so much like I used to sometimes we lose ourselves trying to be better than everybody else but the whole point of running to have fun
spores upset ya ? go see alex junger, clean your gut
thanks for the run vid !
🔥🔥🔥🔥
Did I just hear "33 years old...retired." ?
Rusty Daines Many pro athletes declined really young
Should’ve used the indoor treadmill, much better air. Just use 1% gradient.
1min recovery is too fast, you are doing cruise intervals, not really a true vo2max session.
What kind of shoes did you wear for the workout? :)
What model of shoe were you wearing for the 1k workout?
Name of the shoes you were wearing in the vid? The black ones with the gold brooks logo
E Goss Brooks gts 16 or 17
How do you know how long your running on a random track
What shoes are you rocking Nick?
Is running a full marathon for the 1st time hard
You're coming to Honolulu, Hawai'i
Get one of those respirator running masks, I saw a guy wearing one of those at a 10k
What songs are in the video
a marathon is not as long as it gets man
17
I am from India
Stop saying dumb stuff
What was the point of your comment
@@ajayannamalai3623 ikr....i hate guys like this...they make the rest of us look stupid

Whats you best 5k time ?
I run 1kms at 2:10 pace
Btw I can hold that for 30 miles
