    "Your brain gives you this great idea" - This one really hits home for me, oh how many times my brain conjures new plans and excuses to execute on them WHILE running and ignoring what I set out to do BEFORE running! Great video!

    Hi Stephen , probably one of your best videos yet ,im trying to break 2.30 for the marathon ,I've always been a great believer that yes you can have a great engine but it's ultimately your brain thts is in the driving seat .
    All the mistakes you tallk about I've done ,I mean all of them ,last year I was easy on for well under 2.30 but ultimately ran the first 10km way to fast and paid the price finishing in 2.36 .
    I will use this vid for reference n keep coming back to it .
    Keep em coming great to watch

    This was all very helpful - I've recently managed to get back to a level of fitness that I haven't had for two years and I know I can get even better. Discipline is the key for me - I easily get into over training. I really like your last point and testimony about 'choice points '. I think there is too much emphasis on confidence and effort in sport - what we need is clarity about what we're playing at, then confidence and effort are pretty irrelevant. Gonna rewatch..........😉

    Good stuff, Stephen. Some solid advice here and great scenery to boot. You definitely seem to be enjoying Hawaii while you're there -- the passport situation may have been a happy accident.
    As you asked for feedback on format and message in the last video, I'll offer my opinion (for what it's worth) here. On atmosphere, I like the outdoors better . . . but you can't always be in Hawaii or in the most beautiful scenery so indoors/outdoors, whatever works best on the day is fine. That said, your message and tone seemed to shift with the scenery as well. There was tons of golden advice in this video and the tone was very upbeat. I'm taking more than a few things away from it that I can focus on to improve.
    In the prior video on 80/20, I *think* I get the nuance of the message you were looking to impart but the tone and advice did seem a bit more aggressive. If I were to restate the best version of what I think you were trying to say back to you, I'd say: "We don't need to live in that 80/20 box and we need to make sure we are optimizing all the things around running so we can push that little bit harder."
    I 100% agree so many of us don't consistently do the things we should be around running (nutrition, sleep, strength training, foam rolling, etc.) and I also think that there is no danger and only upside in that advice to be more optimal about recovery. I think that will absolutely help the novice runner and is good for even experienced runners to hear as we can lose focus and get complacent time to time.
    On the pushing harder front, I also agree that part of getting good at running is to get used to being uncomfortable and pushing a bit harder than we thought we could. However, unlike the getting optimal about recovery advice, I do think there is some danger and downside in the "push harder" advice if it's not messaged precisely in that it risks feeding into that David Goggins "GO HARD" kind of psychology that tends to get runners in trouble. This might especially be a danger to what I think is your target audience of people trying to learn to run and who really want those personal best performances.
    You definitely have more experience (by far) than I do, so take my feedback with a grain of salt. I will just say that most of my initial problems when I first took up running is that my competitive impulse often pushed me to go too hard and the advice I needed wasn't how to encourage those demons but rather how to rein them back in or risk the consequences. That said, I'm just a sample size of one . . . I'm sure there are other runners out there that are living too comfortable and could benefit from the "get uncomfortable and push harder" message.
    For me, however, the hardest thing to learn personally has been that when I am getting aggressive and pushing harder I am by nature riding a very fine line between progression and injury. I don't think that there is any negotiating with that line - it will always be there even if you are only pushing to be the best version of yourself (let alone amongst the very best in the world as you are). But, in my short time running, I've found that the closer I ride that line, the more frequently I will cross it and get injured -- two steps forward, four steps back.
    For me, the advice I needed to hear was how to give "the line" a little more space (keeping things at 90-95% instead of 100%-105%). I needed to understand that, while going at 90-95% might slow down my pace of progression If I looked at it in short timeframes (days/weeks), versus riding that line hard . . . in longer timeframes (months/years), I would be able progress faster by giving the line a little more space because I'm better able to avoid the injuries I tend to pick up when I ride the line tight.
    In other words, consistency is king and the only way for me to be consistent is to avoid injury. The way I've come to look at it is when I get optimal with my nutrition, recovery, and sleep, that helps push where the line lives a little higher so I can go that bit harder than when I'm not doing those things . . . but I still need to give that line it's space. Being optimal outside of running for me just means that 90-95% of the line is now higher than it would be if I weren't doing those things.
    Again, my 2 cents would be to take special care around the push harder message lest it lead some runners to injury. I think getting uncomfortable and pushing a bit harder is definitely necessary but there are always alarm bells going off in my mind when it starts down that path. It's definitely worth noting that my perception of the message is certainly colored by the baggage I carry from crossing that line into injury more times than I should have so keep that in mind.
    Lastly, sorry for the "War & Peace" length UA-cam comment but I thought it only fair to take the same time and effort with my feedback that you put into creating these videos . . . which I value greatly. In fact, before I close, I want to say very clearly, lest this get lost in the feedback, that I love the content you've put out these past months. I greatly appreciate the time you are taking to share wisdom that can only be gained from years of experience. It's absolutely helping me with my psychology and my efforts to be a better runner.

  • @mirser4912
    @mirser4912 Рік тому +1

    Great tips! So true, about discipline and not letting your emotions decide for you. I still struggle with staying on pace - I’ll literally go into a run and say to myself “stay between 6:55 and 7:05…” and literally the first mile of a half-marathon I run 6:49 🤯…
    This happens in practice too, even after I tell myself after those first few miles to “slow down” it’s still a struggle… it’s as if some unknown part of me wants to run just a little faster even when my rational side is saying to keep even pacing…
    I think from now on I may call some tempo and steady state runs “discipline” to emphasize staying on pace…

  • @Seby-biketrial

    I loved your video !! totally resonate with that wisdom you shared. much wisdom in what you said that is learned over many years of experience. Do unconfortable training, runs. I saw an interview with François D’Haene (who won UTMB ultra 4x times) and he said same: i travel, i have a family, if I waited for a perfect state to go train i would very rarely train. so I go training in any day, any mood since at race i do get to be in the perfect mood. in race day i will have bad mood, be tired so if I already train in that states, at race i would already KNOW i can run in that not perfect state. CONFIDENCE.
    and regarding trying to force fitness and be as good as elite athletes asap ... yes that leads to quick injuries I noticed. I almost lost a race at start because i ran a lot quicker then my rythm because i got caught into the enthuziasm, adrenaline, group energy. and my heart went crazy after 10 min of super fast pace running. but then i stopped, walked and recover and did finish the race in time.
    THANK YOU for sharing your experience, wisdom!

    My biggest issue is that I always feel guilty when running slowly, part of me always feels like I'm not doing enough, I'm my own worst enemy 😫 I need patience as well because as you said I often feel like I'm trying to force the fitness to kick in instead of working patiently for it. Think I'll treat myself and buy your training plans 👌🏻

      Do lots of speed+ threshold sessions, do hill repeats (10×30 sec all out up hill),work on your top end speed for e.g. 10×200(90 sec rest), 10×30m(strides), stretch well after every running session. Have easy long run at conversational pace for aerobic building.
      Structure your week properly with 2 speed + threshold session or alternate with hill repeats. 1 tempo run (5-6k at 4:25-4:40 min/km pace), rest easy days just jog and take 1 long run (keep it easy).
