Nick you think you can pick me up for the meet up😅
How can you run a faster 800m?
The mile is the best event I have 5:02 in mile and I am 14 years old is it good ??
@@jacksonshearn9701 nice question it is very similar to the 1500m but you need more speed and less tactics
@@bobfreeedu hell ya it’s good
the people that disliked this video want tips to run a slower mile.
@Samuel Smith right? yo @NickSymmondsToo please do this xD
Lol for a Cooldown after a really, really brutal XC meet, I did like a 11:30 minute mile :)
@@darthvader6217 :o xD I bet you really choked out the other competition too!
made the cooldown worh it
He didn’t even show how to run a fast mile 🤦🏽♂️, video was a waste of time
Too bad I can’t see how many people disliked it
It's amazing how an 800-m specialist Olympian could still manage a sub 4 min mile. Strength and endurance at its finest! Such talent.
Yes!! And that his 1500m PR is essentially equivalent to a 3:51 mile. So impressive!!
He is an Olympic Athlete🤷♂️
High mileage hog
Ran 4:26 last week and trying to get under 4:20 by the end of the season💪
Splits?

@@ethancurnow3868 I’m your speed but have no kick, so first and last laps are switched for me. Gotta work on that.
How old are u ?
Nice I can do 4:12
Are you kidding me! This is exactly what I wanted and I didn’t even ask for. I’ve seen “How to run a faster mile” videos but they were meh. But then the NICK SYMMONDS makes one!🤯 Thank you!
Perfect timing on this video! I just started transitioning from 800m training and workouts to 1600m training and workouts for my 1600 at county qualifiers in a few weeks
How’d you know I needed this video 😂
I CAN READ MINDS
@@NickSymmondsToo magic Nick 😳
My mile is 5:53 at the moment. I have been training for 2 months but I am super excited to improve my time even more.
🙌🙌
Update?
@@turnoverbros I run a 5:22 mile and yesterday I ran a personal best 800m time of 2:15
@@Hudsonskates Dang, nice job
@@Hudsonskates how did you drop 30 seconds in four months? Im a freshman I just started doing track and I’ve only gone from 5:58 to 5:57 in one month. I practice six days a week I’m not sure how to get faster
First track race of the season today. I'm running the 4x8, 2 mile, and mile so this video is super helpful.
CRUSH IT!!
Bro 2 events is plenty especially in distance events wtf
@@420jettt2 high schools throw their talented kids into everything, I knew plenty of kids that had to run miles then IMMEDIATELY after run a leg on the 4x400
@@waterrl2 couldn’t be me bruh I’m finna run like a 63
@@420jettt2 yea but someone has to be the mvp😂
This is exactly what I needed because for this track season I've hit the same mile time 3 times in a row 5:13 and I've hit a plateau and can't get faster
This is godly, I’m running the mile today in a meet.
Perfect timing for today’s race in Austin 😈
See you soon!
Not me with a 13 minute mile and has to another one tomorrow and is scared out of my mind: 💀
Today I am racing in the 1600m. No better time to post this Nick thank you! 😎
I agree that pacing is helpful I PRed yesterday with a 5:12 and my first 800 was 2 seconds slower than my second one and it helped
Wassup Nick! I appreciate all your content :) keep it up
I've been running for about 3 weeks. I'm quite unfit my best is 9:14. Lots of room to grow it seems. Very keen on getting to 8mins. Cold weather hits me and I'm crippled
Update?
@@lucianavila-gatz4667 i gave up during the cold weather, till February instead opting for weight training at the gym. I am now however running longer distances on a regular basis, did my first 10k back in May it took me 42:54. I've since managed to shave it down to 41:38
Which I can't say I'm angry about my mile however is about 7:00 depending on the weather.
@@lucianavila-gatz4667Update
Update
Im gonna post a comment JUST for people to reply with boastful personal bests, not to ruin other comment threads😅
I will get the ball rolling: ran a 5.52 last week. Yeah, i know not great, but who cares....
@@manunitedman71 don’t worry bro, I also ran that same time too last week, tmr I’m hoping to go 5:50 or lower
5:33 aiming for 5:15
broke 6 a while ago but lost all that speed training for a half marathon
4.53 for a mile but aiming for a sub 4.50 this year
Yessir Nick. Was dying in class 💪
Wow... this is exactly what I needed!! Thank you so much!
Maybe one week I’ll win a pair of shoes that I desperately need haha
I could use a new pair of spikes, been using the same ones for 4 years 💀
@@ezkur imagine
owning spikes 😔
@@ezkur if you run mid distance I know a really good pair on Amazon for cheap, they're the saucony ballista md
@@ethernalrun642 thank you
Lol, I was searching for this video on your channel just two days ago and here it is!
thank you very much for this video i am very fast and im ten and 5”4 so people expect a lot for me
and our school mile is next week!
What should be average weekly mileage during base period to run sub 4:30 mile
My highest is a 7:08 and I want to get under 7 minutes so this is very helpful.
what are you at now
You can absolutely do it in fact I bet you already have
@@aj.m7413 Yeah, getting below 7 min is do able, but ince you hit the 6 min..
Thats when it gets impossible.
took me like 3 months to get out of the 6 min mark.
now im stuck at 5:50 and i cant get out after 3 months.
i dont know what to do.
my goal is 5:30.
im so close, but i need guidance.
this video didnt help lol. it was just and ad for his app.
bruh my mile time was 13:04 cuz my stamina is super bad
Slow down your pace. At a fast walk you can probably get 11mins mile
I get back from a mile and see he posted this
My school has a blacktop track so spikes are out of the question but I’m sitting at a 5:23 right now trying to break 5 by the end of the season
nick you need to make an 800m program
I'm so excited for the 30 day program!!
I’m 23 now. At 18 I was smoking and ran a mile around 13 minutes. This year I quit drinking and smoking and I started runners. I just ran a mile at 8 minutes and 35 seconds. I’m seeing progress and I’m tryna get better. I’m running tomorrow so I am setting the goal for 8 minutes and 20 seconds. But if I can do better I def will try.
Bro amazing work, since its been a couple months how fast can you run it now?
@@GarbageGamer-fz8tz my best mile is 7:30. I’ve ran 2 5Ks so far. One with 1400 people and I came in 183rd. Then on New Year’s Eve out of 45 people I came 6th with being 3rd best male. I can now run 5 miles consecutive. The progress is there. But I got a long way to go but I’m proud of myself.
Your videos inspire me everyday, keep it up 👍
Dude running under a 4 min mile is insane!!!!! Props
My first meet is at 345 and I’m pretty nervous but this will probably help a lot, thanks a lot
At this point there is over 5 questions you get asked the most😂👍
gonna use this tomorrow, we have to run miles every monday at school
Great video Nick!
I can’t wait to start
yes the timing of this video is perfect!! i’ve got my first track meet of the season in the beginning of next month and i’ve been trying to break my pr of 5:36! thank you for this!!
good luck mate!
Awesome nick you are flying !
Hopefully I can run a better mile this year in Track 😅I've gone under 6 in an xc 5k MULTIPLE TIMES but not done it on a Track yet rip. Hope that this'll be the season :D
That hype video was really cool. Got me inspired
Awesome video Nick! The new app is great!
I have a question Nick. What is the best breathing technique?
I just ran a 4:54 mile as a sophomore in highschool on friday
I have four events in my meet tomorrow 😬 including the mile! Hopefully I can put down a decent time😅🔥
Awesome video, can you make a video on how to run a fast 5k?
This channel is great
Please advise and improve speed staimina
Hey please make a video on how to train for the 800m too
Definitely think the mile should be a more common road racing distance, most people would probably have a lot more fun training for a mile than a marathon.
I agree, for road racing it seems that 1 miles are generally for younger kids, but I think it'd be really fun to have one set up for whoever wants to do it and make it more standardized (like the 5k)
Do they even run the 5th Avenue mile anymore? Don't remember much chat about it anymore pre Covid. It used to be big and got a ton of coverage.
Nick your the best
Trying to get Sub 6 freshman season, hope this works 🤞
Another week, another chance at shoes!
As a freshman my mile time was a 7:30 and my 800m time was 3 minutes now as as a Sophomore my mile time is 5:50
and my 800m is 2:34 still more improving to do I'm gonna keep going !
It's insane how fast people are, I ran a mile last week in 5:12 and felt like dying ! And guys out there breaking even 4 minute mile
Sheesh 5:12?! Niceee, Last week I ran 5:18 but broo Lets hope to break 5 this year!
@@princeisrunning6067 keep grinding bro ull break it soon !
oii 5:12's great dude, PR is 6:03 hopefully I'll be able to break that within the next few weeks 🔥
Lmao, I ran it in 8 minutes and died
Me whose PR is 7:40:
😐
Perfect timing! Doing one on Saturday
Edit: 5:30.06
good luck mate!
Hey..guys iam a big burly man powerlifting type love trainning with heavy weights..but I need to run a 15 mile I know that's slow for you runners..but not me..plz help..its for a job
I do middle distance, steeplechase and xc. Would cross country spikes or middle distance spikes be better?
Eventually you'll want a pair of XC spikes and a pair of mid-distance spikes, but if you had to pick just one I would go with an XC spike and use it for everything
@@NickSymmondsToo thanks
Everyone here: *talking about track, and running for fun*
Me: *here just because of running the mile at school* 👁👄👁
I ran 5.01 at my only indoor meet this year 😞
That's great running! Sub 5 very soon
Hey man well done!! V few runners can achieve that time
@@manunitedman71 thank you 🙏
@insanity man, most 11 year olds these days spend so much time indoors playing video games, the fact you are even running is great to see! And in just 18 months i got my mile time down from 7.32 to 5.52. You got this👊
@insanity yeah, i know what you mean. Keep working hard and you will succeed,!!
Yess this video came at a perfect time lol, we’re supposed to have our first track meet tomorrow and I wanted to run the mile :D
CRUSH IT!!

Mile on Saturday lol
@@jamesstevens5468 good luck brother, mine was not too hot :|
Is there a workout for 800m? And a milage workout plan?
How do I enter the shoe giveaways? I’m in desperate need of a new pair
Wow I train at flamingo park track in Miami Beach. that’s sick!!
idk what went wrong on my second time running a mile. First time I ran it in 5:50 but the second time I ran it my head and heart started hurting in the second to last mile and my head felt like it was gonna explode by the time I finished and I ended up taking 8 minutes.
I got to basic training in two weeks and the starting time for the mile is 8:30, how would u suggest I start off
I’m 12 and my mile is 8:15 when you start your mile if your going to start by jogging just keep jogging and then when your about to finish the mile run as fast as you can.
Anyone have any tips for me? My best mile is 7:58 and I need to get down to 6:45 to make my cross country team. Is it possible and how could I get to my goal?
In the next 3 weeks
What was ur like training for a week when u competed in the Olympics?
Check out his ebook search up nick symmonds 2012 Olympic training e book or something like that it shows all his workouts leading up to the olympics
Bro I have been running in cowboy boots and let me tell ya it is hard i might still be in school in 8th grade but i finally got me a pair a tennis lol
I LOVED THE VIDEO!! I run the 1600m and I wanna run faster
i ran a 6:53 like 10 months ago in vans😂😂. i haven't tried since but i bulked up 20 lbs.
i need a 6:45 for soccer and oh my gosh its so hard for me to break 7:30 considering my asthma.
this video length is my mile pr lol
Last year it was my first time running ever in xc and track my mile time is 5:30 and a 18:35
I have a question but I don’t got instagram ; How and when should I train to run a sub 6 min mile; does running long distance help or intervals?
If anybody else has any tips comment them please!
I run a sub 6 and personally I do a lot of distance training, intervals, and 400 meter sprints. You should definitely do sprints one day, the next day do distance with some hill sprints, and the other day do some tempo runs on a track or trail increasing your speed and decreasing every 30 seconds for 20 to 30 min.
@@zunk9411 Thanks, I’ll try that
How can I run a faster 1500 meters race
hey nick you need to do something for your international followers also so that we can also get a chance to win a good pair of shoes.
got a meet against my own teamates on april 8th, tryna run a 4:33 1600m season opener
He’s right
I don’t even run the mile, still watching tho xD
My current 1 mile time 8 minutes, yeh horrible. But i am Working on it. After 2 months i will update my time. Aim to reach under 6 minutes!!!
🔥
Hey Nick not sure if you get this question often if at all but are you a Christian or do you follow a different religion/worldview and if so how has that impacted your why for running? Great video btw😜
My boss just challenged me to a mile race so I looked for this video. I'm trying to get the Altra Escalante Racer, so if you're still giving away shoes 😉
Hey Nick! Ik you probably wont be able to see this comment, as it is like a year after you have uploaded this video. But this is my first track season, my freshman year of high school, and my second race is coming up this week and im kind of nervous about it. On my last track meet I was able to run a 6:36 and am hoping to be able to improve over time as the season prgresses. I also wanted to thank you, as this video helped me a lot!
Maybe one week I’ll win a pair of shoes I actually need them because mine are ripped
i watched it and ran a mile 3 minutes after and my time went from a 6:02 to a 5:59 and i’m in seventh grade 12 years old
Trying to hit a 5 flat
Wow, Nick's PR makes my 4:12 look like jogging.
JUST KIDDING. I hate it when ppl do subtle flexes like that while pretending to be saying good stuff about another person. Is my pr 4:12? I can only wish...
Mine is actually 4:12 after 5 years
I’m in 8th grade and got a 5:10 for my first meet and I’m trying to get under 5
my pr is 5:48 and i’m trying to get 5:35 today to run with varsity - i’ll come back and let you know how i do (i’m a freshman in high school)
For the exact same time
I'm 17. My current pr is 5:07. Hoping to break 5 tomorrow!

Did you make a video on how to run a faster 800?
I have a couple of those up on my other channel!
First XC season went from (2 mile) 12:30’s to 9:30s… just finished my track season and I did 9’s for the 2 mile… spent the whole season trying to get under 8 for the mile and I did 8:07 twice 🫠 so hard but I’m still trying
Back to the you can’t run a mile in a good time if you run one mile a day all out I have a funny story about my coach. He didn’t even run in high school he actually played baseball and won a college World Series. He ran a mile for like 30 straight days and ran like 4:40. Dudes an incredible athlete but again not recommended like you said💀
I have a track meet tomorrow but I have shin splits and I can’t go 😢
Same I have one too
I have my college conference meet on Saturday, I've finally gotten good enough in my conference to score for my team, and I'm out with a femoral stress fracture.
Fight them off
Rest hard guys
Easiest way is to run faster the straights and don't forget to turn left.
100m is better than a mile...
They are both so much fun though
I’m trying to join the coast guard I need to run a mile and a half in 12:51
