    Every year in high school I dreaded the mile run fitness test. And even when I became more fit I still hated running. Thankfully I was lucky enough to be exposed to new information on UA-cam that led to me totally changing my perspective on running. All the things you said in this video were so relevant. Learning to chill out, go slow, and have fun with it is a total game changer. I just ran my first 50 miler a few months back - my teen self would never have believed it.

    You’re sooo right about the traumatising school experience! I think PE should go away from marks and tests and focus on introducing pupils to sports they might like to do for the rest of their lives to stay healthy. PE focusing on the kids who need excercise and not those who are sporty anyways. The latter are on sports clubs anyways already. Introducing the other kids to the idea that moving can be fun, would be the most important thing

      You're right. I always feel a little down when I don't get out for a run or walk. Running and walking helps me relax, get out, see and sometimes meet people who also just like to be outside, and it makes not only my mood and head feel better but just my body overall.
      I completely understand what you mean cause of I don't run or walk I always regret it and the very next day make up for it.
      Use to hate running but grew to love it the more I made myself do it to at first lose weight and fat then after I did I just always felt almost at peace during and after a run

    I don’t encourage any of my friends to go running with me anymore. They all start out way too fast on every run then end up hurting themselves within a few weeks and saying “the doctor said my knees are too weak to run” 🤦‍♂️ … then I’m like “No your knees are not too week! Your whole body is too week!” Then i end up running alone again 😆

      The amount of times I’ve heard “the doctor said I can’t …..” it’s usually the go to saying for people who enjoy eating more than staying fit. My recommendation for people just starting out is finding a comfortable time limit (15-20 minutes) and just walk. Then change to a slow jog and walk and slowly increase running. I’m sure if you go to the doctor, they are not saying “you can’t run”. I’m sure they are saying “you’re not fit to run at that pace, slow it down”.

    Running is also therapy for me. Getting out alone for 35 to 40min or so each day helps me relax, keeps me focused, some of my greatest ideas come when I'm out for a good run. Today for instance I woke up a little late (later then usual) and noticed shortly after that I didn't have much time left before I had to leave for work but running is so important to me I was able to fit in a 15min power run in the 30min a had before I left for work. It just sets my day up and gives me those feel good vibes. Appreciate the video. I'm going to send to my daughter... as she hates to run lol.

    This channel has been a great motivation for my running. Thanks, Goran.
    I'm 61 yo and have been trying to like running, on and off, for 15 years. Pulled hamstring, fractured metatarsal, Achilles tendon, spinal disk issues, knee problems, each sidelined me for long stretches, and even during the best of time my limit was 15 minutes and I could not get my breath, and ached for days.
    Today I ran an easy 25 minutes, breathing through my nose the whole time, on my toes, with a cadence of 160 BPM, that I'm working to get up to 180. No single secret. Running 5 minutes a day for 6 weeks before going to 10 minutes. Had poor hip flexor cause knee pain, and I figured out how to strengthen them. Learned to do static stretches only after arun. Had some hip mobility issues now that my gluts are getting strong, and pinch a hip nerve when going uphill, but will work on improving hip mobility and will pause if it gets worse.
    It can be complicated if you start late, but it's worth it in my opinion.

    You are totally correct. Especially the first part where people go out and run at sprinter pace for as long as they can. And since they run much too fast, they fizzle out in a minute or so and think that running is not for them. When I first started out running at age 17 (because I felt so unfit and I had read somewhere that running improves mental capacity) I ran for exactly 3 min before I had to stop. Luckily, I read a book about running not long after that demotivating 3min sprint. The books said I should slow down to a speed that I could hold a conversation and to build up the time over several months. I followed that advice. I went out every day slower but still only managed 7 min the second time around. However, I persisted, by giving myself small goals: every week I would try to add another minute to my run. Before I knew it, I ran an hour effortlessly. Many decades and higher degrees later ( running does improve intellectual capacity :) ) I am still running around 10 km at least four times a week. Sadly, I have never had any natural environments to run in; only city streets and the occasional run through a park. But this doesn't matter. I just enjoy being able to run.

    Hi Göran, great video! Very beautifully filmed too, as always. I agree with everything you said. I was one of those kids who was traumatized at school when I had to do a Cooper test in 6th grade but had never been given an introduction to running before. I don't think I'm naturally very gifted as a runner, I was a gymnast and am much better at strength sports than at running, but running has just always been something that I thought I should be able to do (it seems like such a natural thing for humans to do) and I really wanted to be able to do it without feeling like I'm dieing at the same time. So two years ago I started running and it was super hard at first but I stuck with it because I wanted to get better at it, I liked how I felt after a run, and I just really enjoyed being in nature, especially in winter when not that many other people went outside. As I got a little better at running I started pushing it way too hard (I'm an ambitious person) and developed a knee injury last fall - classic beginner mistake I guess. For a while I couldn't even walk properly, let alone run, and it wasn't easy to get back into it, but since I remembered the feeling of being able to enjoy even just a few of my previous runs I really wanted to get back to running. My knee has gotten a lot better since I started doing short runs more frequently and stopped worrying about the pace, and I am now able to run much further than I ever could before, and faster as well. I'm still a beginner of course and not fast at all but really enjoy running now even when it doesn't feel that easy, and I am going to do my first ever 5k and 10k races this year. I'm still in my twenties, so I hope to have many years ahead of me to improve my running. I love how beautiful and positive your videos are, they really inspire me to go out for a run on days when I don't really feel like it!

    I’m naturally terrible at running. I’ve been weighting for 7 years and am physically now built like a professional athlete. I’ve done the elliptical probably 1000 times. However, I must admit, I never once had a mile time better than 10 minutes. I’ve never even been able to run for more than a quarter mile without walking. Even my friend who literally just started working out has a better mile time than me. This has convinced me to start running to at least prove to myself that I can be a better than average runner. I’ve taken a lot of inspiration from David Goggins as his build is very similar to mine.

    You'll find also that most military vets hate running and won't run again once they're out. I'm not a natural athlete. My recovery times are pretty slow and I just don't put on a whole lot of muscle or get faster. So when I joined the army right after high school, I had the worst 4 years of my life. I was constantly sore and felt miserable for most of those 4 years. Depending on your unit, you'll run with your squad (about 7-10 people), or your platoon (which is ~ 5 squads) and break down into run groups. It was a struggle for me because I was a 190 lb 6' guy trying to keep up with guys who were like 150-160 lbs. Runs for them were "too easy" meanwhile I'm dying. And I don't think its a unique experience either.
    I picked up running again in my early 30's and its been a battle fighting that urge to always push myself, to not go further just because I think I can and screw up my recovery windows.

    Great advice 👍🏻 I started running to improve as a cyclist and to add a different (and more time efficient) way of training to my routine. I never really liked it and just did it to improve on my fitness and health. That is until I went for my first trail run - which I absolutely loved. So now I would say I dislike road running, but like trail / fell running. A big factor in that as well is that I never really managed to improve on my speed whilst running, but in trail running your speed doesn't really matter that much, it's more about what's around you, what you see and hear and smell, it's more about those little things like spotting deer or catching a sunrise than about achieving a PR or being faster than other people. And personally I find jumping over roots and rocks and getting dirty jumping into puddles and mud is way more fun than even terrain 🙃 I would say all that could be a big factor for many people who dislike running.

Unfortunately i had to stop running due to an achilles tendon rupture. Many years later i restarted running but its been borderline impossible to run for more than a few months without an injury popping up specially in my right leg. I had my gait checked out and seems like my right leg pronates a lot and much more than the left leg leading to a weird running form where my right leg seems to stay a bit behind the left (a sort of dragging) leading to recurrent injuries. I just stopped running and im currently just 100% focused on gym work. Maybe one day i try it out again. I still have the running itch in me. 😃

Since then (4 years ago already), I've been trying to get back to the same level but it's so demotivating if you're constantly nowhere close to your old pace

    its easy to hate running. if you are not trained at all running will push your heart rate very high very quickly. thats exhausting and for many people simply no fun. its quite a challenge to run extremely slow in order to keep your heart rate down. thats no fun either. so many quit again. running is fun as soon as you have a good balance between your cardio vascular system, your muscles and your weight. if those are in good shape you can enjoy running and also push yourself.

I warm up and cool down as well as stretch after but after a run I can’t lift my left, it hurts to get in the car and today I left the gym in tears. I reAlly really enjoy running but I don’t know what I’m doing wrong to cause this pain on my left side. It’s actually becoming unbearable. If you have any advice, I would be so appreciative. I really don’t want to have to stop completely. I just started 💔

Recently, I told myself to just try it once more just by my own and with my dogs and it was really pleasant yet I still can t and don t want to run in company with some other human runners. I told myself to held on running for minumum 21 days for creating the good habit of it and it really worked. Not only I didn t quit but I enjoy my running sessions more and more. Now, after 1,5 months I m on the runs of 10-12 kms in easy pace just for fun and I really like it.

    Absolutely can relate to the "running in school" thing. I hated it. Growing up with asthma and seriously diminished lung capacity, I struggled to run 800 meters at any pace. Health improved towards the late teens and I picked up cycling... I did some running, because health benefits and all that, and I just needed to take a look at my father to see what a lack of excerise can do even if you're otherwise reasonably healthy, but it wasn't until I switched to barefoot (and a bit later barefoot shoes) until it started to be fun. I still don't do it nearly as often as I'd want to, and I to me, cycling is still 1000 times more fun, but it is fun. Ten years ago, I never thought I'd say that 😅 20 years ago, I never thought I'd be able to run 10 k without stopping. Let alone half marathon distance. Now that I did both, I know those were not the limit...

    As a teen I'd have no problem with 5k's or 10k's. Four years of desk job post graduation and I finally flipped the switch on cardio training. I started out running 2k's. I knew I could do way more but 2k's was all I could motivate myself to do. I even said to myself to not go for more if I "felt like it" when on my run, because I did not want to betray my own motivation. I went out of the door for a 2k. If I wanted to do a 3k then I should've said that to myself before going out.
    Now four months later I did a 12k for the first time in a looong time. Not that I couldn't do it before if I wanted to, but because I wanted to slowly build up so that my joints could have time to adapt. The great thing is that with my new cardio goals I'm doing regular traditional strength training to supplement my training, which is something I never wanted to do before. But now it's all in function of my own personal cardio goals and that's reason enough for me to do it, striving for a better performance every month.

  • @umbroraban1075
    @umbroraban1075 Рік тому

    Indeed, you start hating running when you finish all your runs exhausted. It is very difficult to turn down the pace because you want this dopamine rush when you get back. Finishing your run without the feeling that you have actually done something is pretty frustrating. But I have learnt the hard way. I started running half marathons too fast and I totally messed up my legs. Walked like a cripple for one week and could only go to the gym lift weights for upper body training. Started very slow after one week of rest of running and gradually build up again. It is good to push that reset button once a while. You have to make sure that you finish you run not too exhausted. If you do it is mentally difficult to start your next run.

Apparently the teeth grinding effects to the neck muscles too and causes migraines. Hopefully it's something that you could test too and find effective.

    Iv only been running for the last 2 years. Started out using C25k and managed a half marathon but I really didn't like running at all. I actually thought there was something wrong with me for not liking running because it was only the completion of the challenge is what made me run rather than the run itself. However, I have just discovered the maffetone method last month and for the first time, I actually enjoy running. So much so that I look forward to my long run, currently 24km, I couldn't even run 1km 2 years ago. I wish I knew about running slow to start with and not thinking its all about going all out every run. The only downside now is, there are no slow running clubs, they are all about speed where I live.

    I ran when I was younger but never really liked it. Recently I started running again and stumbled upon Low Heart Rate running technique where 80% of runs are slow and heart rate is at a comfortable level all the time in these runs. A month in the low heart rate system and I started to love running. The constant near your max heart rate that I used to do is what made me dislike it in the first place.
    So simple yet it makes a world of a difference.

    Which completely ruined my achievements. Last octobre i was at like 50-60km per week. Then i had to pause because of an injury. Then surgery in februaey (venes in my calves) and the dr said i can restart after a couple of days?!
    The struggle went on....
    Last monday i went for a 2k run. And i was barly able to walk. My calves feel like super sore... and still today 8 days later barly able to walk.
    I went through massage.... inlays.... accupunture.... bloodwork... surgery.... compression socks.... new/other shoes... weight refuction from 87 to like 77kg at 180 cm... changes my diet.... personal coach .... norhing helped.
    Btw 2016 i finished a marathon in like 4:04 at like 30°C at age of 39. So nothing extreme i guess.
    But i am about to give up.... unless there is a new idea.

    right, super slow, when you are alone. But when you live in a city you are never alone. Every runner passing you when you try to keep your bpm under 140 is demotivating. And when all runners pass you and even grandma passes you with her walker, then the "fun" of running is gone. Then you are an embarrassment to yourself. And yes, you can motivate yourself through these hard moments but you can only do that for so long. So yes, running could be fun when you can define your own speed. Just like driving could be fun when you drive a Ferrari. But it will never be when you are confined to a brown 20-year-old third-hand Hyundai or when running when you are confined to super slow. So, to add, I hate running, run 6km per week in one go with high bpm just to feel alive again.
