    The FLO!
    Yo Eric, I finished my first marathon about 2 weeks ago and just wanted to say your videos inspired me every week to get out there and get after it. Your videos did much more than motivate me to keep running. They helped quite a bit with understating that everyone goes through mental battles on their way to achieving their goals. I could write 10 more paragraphs on how grateful I am to have found your channel, regardless, you’re then man and the SUMMER BETTER WATCH OUT! Here comes the speed!

    This is going to sound crazy, but watching your videos has increased my confidence in my own running. I haven't been running for very long, and I started watching some other influencers who were cooking through miles like crazy ( as do you ) but seeing you do the same while juggling life, and family, its beyond inspiring! Thank you for all that you do! @flobergruns is the goat!

    Ran xc throughout middle school and high school but would never run in the off season cos it was too hot or too cold. Your videos of running in the hot, humid weather has motivated me to get out there. Im currently training for my first half marathon (hopefully a trail race taking place in the fall)

    Hi Eric - Greetings from Denmark! Thanks for a great channel and great content. You seem sharp and ready for Chicago in a month time from now. I believe the foundation for this was created in your summer of speed - are you sharing your training programme as you used to do? I would love to get an overview of how you trained for speed. Thanks!

    My man… good timing. I am also doing a summer of speed, attempting to go sub-40 10k on my 40th bday which happens to be at a big 10k race. Do you set paces to hit on your watch or just monitor on your own? I started and the Coros plan had set paces based on fitness test and I couldn’t nail them, was either too fast or too slow on them. Curious how you manage with paces as the guide, as I’ve switched to just heart rate. Much love my brother. Keep the vids coming.

    I'm 16 seconds in but this reminds me of High School. A big chunk of our track team that would run the 1600 or 3200 would at some point be allowed to run a 400, and bam those were our best sprinters.

  • @jamesrowntree
    @jamesrowntree 6 місяців тому +1

    With your prior blocks, did you have the VDOT equivalent 5k and 10k times before you started the marathon blocks, or did they appear during the training? For example, a sub 3hr marathon has a 5k equivalent of 18:48.

    • @flobergruns
      @flobergruns  6 місяців тому +1

      I never checked very regularly in years past, but I was using these tune-up races last year to inform my projected marathon time. Since I have a few fast marathons done now though, I’m using it the opposite way to see what my 5K & 10K equivalents are.

    Floberg, great videos but there's so much color grading and fancy editing that it feels unauthentic at times. Give us a "raw" unedited video with no cool cuts after one of your races...bring out the emotion and authenticity.

This is pride month you know. I guess he’s not gay, so whatever. You want me to apologize for being excited about thinking I was being represented in the running community by an awesome athlete?
