Full Day of Working and Training | How I balance Work and Being an Athlete
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 жов 2024
- I've gotten a ton of people asking me what i do for work, if I just do youtube or I have a job? I do work! In the video I'll be walking you through what a typical day looks like when I have to work but also have to get a solid day of training in as well. Enjoy!
I want this channel to be a place of inspiration and storytelling for everyone to listen to, whether it be about #running or anything else! I am very new to this vlogging/editing videos thing, so I'm still trying to get better with all the little stuff, but please feel free to leave some constructive criticism in the comments or let me know what video you want to see next!

You’ve got such positive energy 💖💖💖
And you have beautiful smile ))
Anyone else on that training + working grind?
I train & do college so I'm a full time student athlete
Great channel Elijah. I hear you on waking up early before runs not only to get some coffee in but for me it's also a way to ensure there's time to go #2 before the run :-)
Curious, what kind of Brooks do you run in? Do you ever run in anything else?
Teacher, graduate school and running 40 miles a week !
How 'bout this: I work rotating shifts that change every week. So, for a week I work during the day (usually 7am to 4pm), then for a week I'll work in the evening (roughly 2pm to 11pm), then for a week I'll work overnight (usually 10pm to 7am), and then the cycle starts over again. Makes it really hard to gave the energy to run, sometimes, but I usually get myself out there. Takes a lot of will power, though!
Just started
You should do a video going threw your warm-up and stretching routines.
Yes please!
Just went on my first run this week after a month off due to a cycling accident. Really missed it! You've been a great motivator for me and my running.
Glad to have you back on the grind man!
I wanted to run when I started watching , but by the end I wanted a burrito! 😆
hahahaha 2 of the best things in life
When I had a restaurant job my feet were always tired. I couldn't imagine doing a second workout after the shift. Good on you for being such a warrior!
You’re an awesome guy! The way you were talking about why you love serving people... says a lot about you!! God bless you man!
Favourite runner. Full with goodvibrations, keep them videos comming.
Love Elijah’s videos. Anyone else notice his Liked vs Disliked ratio has to be the best out of all the running UA-cam channels.Very loyal following.
I watched a couple of your videos. You're a good human being.
Well said, my boy. Be true to yourself and keep searching for happiness. And Joy......Much Joy. I love you so very much.
I balance running 6 days a week with a M-F 9-5. I love getting up early and getting in a run before work too, starts the day off right!
So true!
Those shots on the gimbal of you running were so smooth!! Great video!
Thanks! I'm loving the new gimbal
Watching this in bed while isolating for 2 weeks with covid symptoms. God I can't wait to get back out for a run. Thanks for the content, stay safe, lots of love xx
Hope you have a fast and safe recovery! You'll be back at it in no time
Great video, has inspired me so much, seeing someone so how humble and enjoying the small things. ❤
Anyone who dislikes this video is insane man, such amazing content can’t wait for your channel to blow up and allow you to inspire even more people
Duude, I love your videos and personality soo much, you always boost my mood by a 100%, hope you'll see this one day, keep it up!!
Really such an outstanding video. So many fitness youtubers or content creators will never shed light on how 'normal people' can try and include and balance fitness in their daily lifestyles. Elijah is so revealing and so honest. We are lucky to have you man.
Why is it sunny at half 6 in the morning there 😭 I went for a run this morning at 7am before work and it was pitch black as well as definitely cold enough to justify a zip up 😂 (I live in Manchester, UK)
Haha that’s too true man. I’m in Nottingham and it’s pitch black in the morning and pitch black from after 4. Can’t wait for that summer weather where we might get some sun!
Feels. I'm in Stoke. Summer will be great after all these dark runs though.
Man, I gotta say that this was inspiring. It’s not too hard to see that you’re tired but you’re so genuine and positive. Wishing you the best with your life and this channel.
You are amazing. Keep it up Elijah
My favorite running channel
There’s something humane and very realistic about your running videos which I couldn’t find in any other youtube pages
Absolutely love em❤️
Keep inspiring!☮️
Saw a totally different side to you in this video! Really enjoyed watching this with an insight into your day to day life :)
I love your videos!! I hope you continue to get more subscribers, your content is so genuine and your energy is incredible.
Fab content and a nice bloke... thanks for making this
lockdown just ended for me which means im back to working full time, plus it gets dark super early now, so its been super hard getting runs in. this is inspiring :)
We're the same age, and on the same diet which I started over quarantine. I definitely don't put as many miles as you. But I look at you as a goal to beat!
that work meal looked so fire omg
I've been slacking off lately 😂 thank you for motivation 🏃💪
Thanks, very well done!
This guy is worth his weight in GOLD literally!
Awesome video man. Great stuff
Loved your explanation of what you love about your job!! Eating out was always a big deal for me and my family growing up, so I totally get where you're coming from! I'm sure you've helped people make some special memories.
I appreciate that :)
Keep grinding man good things will come love your videos!
Always counting your blessings and showing thanks. Lots of respect to you man you’re a role model for me
I really appreciate you saying that man, cheers!
awesome vid !! but is it just me or can anyone tell how he wants to laugh whenever the camera gets closer to him during the run 😂??
love this video Elijah! so many day in the life vlogs on here are so obviously set up, but i love yours. they are so natural and realistic and really inspire me.
These videos are such high quality, great job!
Hey, I loved this video!!! I am also a runner (not as good as you) but I absolutely love it. I’m in high school btw!
Such a beast with positive energy!!
Love your videos mate, just watched this one and wanted to say keep doing what you’re doing, spreading positivity !
Went 1:15 for 13.1 Back in the day. Now I work as an accountant and don't run like I use to. This video inspires me to train again! Thank you sir!!!!
Dude, you are a legend!
you've got such an amazing vibe about yourself Elijah... every time I see one of your videos, it fills me up with so much positivity and inspires me as an athlete to balance my day, run, train hard, just keep pushing and go for more! please, keep up the good work as you have been , cheers from INDIA !
Love the positivity and motivation! Keep it up!
Nice video! Enjoy the day in the life challenges, but also good to see some more practical stuff like this too. Would be cool to see some more vids on your favorite places to run. Could get some nice shots and a change of scenery. CA coast is beautiful where you are!
Yeah I definitely would love to get out to different locations, I'll keep that in mind!
You are one of my biggest inspirations!! I really appreciate your UA-cam videos!! Could you maybe make a video about your favorite key workouts to become a stronger, faster and more efficient runner? :)
I love how you see positivity in everything! keep spreading joy, you are a good man!
Love this wholesome vibe! You smashed that burrito, how have you not done a full 10k calorie challenge yet?
Love your channel! Keep it up. Very relatable and down to earth. :)
Can you make a video showcasing your top tips for new runners on various aspects like form, breathing, pace, increasing distance, etc?
really love watching you.. more power and keep safe Elijah!!
Very inspiring video, thank you for sharing! Fantastic work ethic too!
Here in jersey when it’s 45° I run with the shirt off haha. Wanna switch locations?!
U inspire me to run more and more thank u 😘
Inspired! Thank you
Love the passion you have! great video
Thank you!
We have the almost routine
Wake up at 3 or 4 depends distance of run.
Run at 5 am
Work at 9 am
Home at 6 pm
Lifting by 6:30
Side note: when you go run here in the Philippines by 6 am is almost hot due to our humid wind hehe
Yes for being a server!
Me and my 8 years old are big fan of you :) .We both are active on sports.He plays soccer and I run :) . Sometime in future can you make video on running pace for runner who are between beginner and intermediate .You are so down to earth person .
Elijah can you make a video on all the stretches you use before a run
Shout out to the camera man who also woke up at 5am. Keep up the work Elijah 🏁🏃🏾♂️
Could you do a video of your pre-run stretching, and then any other stretching you do during the day? :))
Loved the video! Awesome work!
Thank you!
Loved the video!
You're such a cool dude, keep it up man.
Holy hell... you’re almost at 30k, when did this happen? Either way I’m happy for you 🙌🏾
Beautiful views on your run there! Awesome 😎 Do you get up at 5 every day on weekends too?
Insanely underrated channel
Support from Sweden
appreciate it!
Love the posi attitude! 👍
I was about to mention, that’s all you eat for breakfast lol. Amazing lunch! Do you drink a second coffee throughout your shift?
Impressive!! Is this why you left the disc golf course early?!
Better 9 holes than 0 my dude
Thankyou 🤗
Hey Elijah I fricken love your channel. I know pants might not be the most comfortable thing to run in but covering up your legs and also wearing a gator for your neck would help save major chi ie could help recovery
Pre-run dance moves, check!
Injured my lower back and miss running!
Dope vids!
Great video bro!!:)
Love your positivity. Also are you training for anything... been following you on strava and seen you had a pretty big week
Do you have a new camera? The video quality was so goooood!
these are my favourite vids that u make!
Love the vids, keep em going.
I’m sure you’ve mentioned this before but how long have you been a vegetarian and what made you start?
Can tell you a great person
how many time spend in your job(a day)? Btw you is inspiration, thank you.
Would like to know if you follow any specific training plan, any low heart rate training ? Also great vids man, truly motivating !
Right now I'm just trying to build up my mileage and maybe do a workout every now and then. Once I have a specific race on the schedule I"ll start to do more focused training. I do try to work in easy runs throughout my training and keep the heart rate nice and low on those days
I hope I'll feel that way someday
nice vid, have you ever dealt with an Injury? if so how did you overcome it and what kept you going . Currently battling a 10 week injury and beginning to run but it’s been a journey.
Hey, I like your channel a lot. I live in Belgium it’s very far!
Do you think your body can handle the stress because I am always scared I get injuries when I workout a lot and when is your next race?
I definitely try to prioritize recovery and taking easy days when I need to! I don't have a specific race on the calendar quite yet!
What do you film on? Do you think it would be okay to start a UA-cam channel filming on an iPhone?
How do you find it now your a vegetarian? Still got enough energy to run long distances, do you think it has helped or still getting used to it?
Do a Q&A! I have so many questions for you
I was like dang! Dad has got mad skills now filming whilst riding, then you made shout out to your bro.....oops sorry dad 🤪
When are you going to bed to get up earlier? I’m curious because I’m up around 5:00am and the people around me are so surprised that I’m in bed by 8-9pm. 😂
I'm pretty much right in the same boat! In Bed by 9 usually haha
It makes sense to go to bed then to get 8hrs sleep. Way too many people don’t sleep enough and if you ask them what they do in the evening it’s often just Netflix, I’d rather sleep 🤷♀️
Did you buy that lunch and dinner? Or did you make them? Looked really good
i want to be like you... you are awesome
❤
6:22 Bro, I got scared for no reason 😂
Just curious, when you have a dirt path and paved path right next to each other, why do you run on the dirt path? Is it because the dirt path has a little more cushion, thus easier on the joints?
