Hey, there is some solid advice on your video. Stuff we all know, but need to be reminded now and then. You have a very healthy mindset, I'm certainly taking notes and will try to apply some of the things you mention. I'm only an occasional runner, it's a complementary thing to my other activities, but the simplicity and lack of excess equipment makes trail running very liberating.
Running became the reason to give up booze. I wasnt drinking loads but was losing morning training to being hungover. Much happier as a result and can go to the pub and have a really satisfying reason not to sink 5 beers. Win win.
I’ve been running for 15 years now - currently 59 years old and recently retired. I loved running initially because it provided sanity when my career was unsatisfying. I also appreciate it, and especially trail running and long runs, because it provides a sense of reality when most of life seems so artificial.
I’ve always loved the outdoors including hiking and fishing or just be with nature. I must be hitting midlife crisis or something (lol), but I got into trail running recently and I’m loving it - just happier, healthy overall. This is a different game which I’m hoping to be in for a long time. Thank you for all the tips and knowledge you’ve shared in your channel.
Truth! After 5 Ironmans including a Kona finish in my late 40’s to early 50’s it was too much stress. I have switched to ultra running and am ready for my 10th race of 100 miles or longer next month. I couldn’t be happier !
I absolutely love the people I have met in trail and ultra running community. As you said, meeting people as an adult that you enjoy being with for hours at a time is not easy, but this is the greatest experience I have had to learn more about myself and others.
Running gives me an outlet for a really hyper focused personality. I’m someone that really thrives with a large challenge that I can measurably work towards. Races give me that structure to work the rest of my life around and I love it that way.
I came to trail running late in life. Friends and family are starting to pass from this realm to the next. Then the pandemic hit. How many warning shots does one need across the bow before they get the message that life is fleeting. I guess over 60 years worth. I called running my anti-social distancing. I love running trails. I love watching how the trails change through the seasons. I am just barely an ultra runner. I only have one 50k under my belt, but I have thousands of miles of trails done. I hope to progress over the next few years until I can finally do a 100 mile event sometime before I hit 70. I have some rules for what I do, go figure. Rule Number 1 is "Do no harm". If I hurt myself training or doing whatever I can not run or exercise for some number of days. After a week or two of not training it takes more time to just get back to where you were.
Spot on. Last week was my distance pb at 15.35 mi. Been back at in for only a couple of months. Realized a few weeks ago, I love my long runs bc it’s the only way I can give myself hours of me-time in nature. It’s become the highlight of my week, every week.
Exactly! I don't know if they did study on that - but I can tell for sure that for me, I'm happier, calmer and less stressed if I'm able to spend some time outdoors
Great thoughts! I love running! For me, it's become gratitude in motion. I started running because I was a good sprinter (when I was much younger). As I got older and had kids, I started running to improve my fitness. Now, while I enjoy the added fitness, I also run because I enjoy it (very much intrinsic reasons). One thing that I've realized recently is that if you use running to solve all your problems and habits, then no amount of running will be enough and you'll end up burning yourself. HOWEVER, if you let running complement your life, your choices, your physical and mental health, then it becomes something amazing and special!
Thanks :) I try my best to make them short - I value the time of anyone watching! But it's tough sometimes to be succinct! Feasible on tip video. .. but for the races, it's hard to condense too much without loosing the ups and downs of a 35hr race!
There’s so so much on here about running but this video and the only other one I’ve watched so far are really great. Sensible, wise, passionate and the thing I love most is that it’s not about speed. So many videos and running chat are focused on speed even the ones that say run slow - to run fast, it’s always about speed. I like how these are all about the joy of running. I run because I love it and if I run to fast it will stop me running the nest day or worse injure me. Anyway, great videos, all the best. Chris
Thanks for sharing, Simon! I love the vibe of this video, it really resonates with me. I also LOVE to be in nature. I hike a lot and am slowly turning to more (trail)running. I'm very far away from doing any race, and it's not really my goal to participate in one, but the more time I can spend in nature, enjoying the mountains and other beautiful landscapes, the happier I become.
I basically started like this too - was hiking, and eventually just added a little bit of running on the flat or downs. Next thing you know, I was 'racing' 100s. But mostly because I never feel like I'm "racing" racing, if you know what I mean. For me, it's just like an organized (long) day hike with support. So simpler logistics, and mostly, other people around (which makes it more fun and also a little safer). I can't imagine doing 100 solo
I started running (trail) about 60 years old. Just finished a 33 mile trail run with some elevation at 69. It’s nice to be in the woods and listen to nature sounds . And a challenge. Ironically I only started T running because I changed my diet to a WFPB lifestyle
Simon, I carry one banana and one Natures Bakery (brand at Target) bar per hour. I try to schedule my next pickup of food at the same mileage in to the aid station if doing a local long run to the car) . My last sanctioned run of 20 miles I carried everything., however they had bananas at aid stations halfway. My next 50k at Leanhorse South Dakota, has watermelon and banana at their aid stations. So far so good. I also follow a raw Ironman triathlete who supposedly only does raw on race day. Sometimes I carry the fat medjool dates. So far so good. It’s just fun to run 🏃🏽… 👍🏽 I enjoy ur videos Simon !
@@wallyevans4228 Thanks for the info! Yes was wondering. I guess I do a lot of bananas myself but in the starting in 50-60 miles I can't anymore. Happy to see people experiment with what works best for them fueling-wise. I think for me personnally, the main reason I don't want to get into anything restrictive is simplicity and adaptability. Like my friend Fanny who's vegan: it's sometimes (but not always) a struggle because she can't know if the aid station will have what she needs. But of course, if that helps her, good for her! It's a headache I can't deal with - I don't have time to research what they have at aid station, so I'm very glad I can just go and pick whatever they have. But I'm lucky because I have a decently strong stomach
Mostly a biker, but when conditions outside call for a run instead, yes , a great way to get that much needed exercise done. Thanks to inspiring people like you supplying much needed guidance I can get this done the right way - good on you Simon! 🚴🏼♂️🏃♀️🌿🧘🏼🙏
Being alone with the wind in my hair and fighting all the injuries disabilitys and arthritis. Everytime i get back i thank i can still do it. Good for the soul 👍
another couple of benefits is that in an ultra, you may hallucinate (like@4.38min) and/or have a female companion or friend who will remind you that trail running "is so cool!" (like @2min). Your race lineup SG via ultrasignup for 2024 is insane. I'm a comparable runner, but at 50k distance. I love the adventure
Although new to ultra running, I have been a trail runner ever since high school, almost 30 years now!!! (Yikes, I cried a little after typing that😅). For me, the very best parts of running are those moments when I’m floating effortlessly through the woods, my mind totally quiet, my breathing is calm and rhythmic. It’s kinetic meditation!
You got that right. Running uphills on trails is indeed quite like meditation as you're facing the challenge of a hill you might not see the end of. You begin thinking "hey, I can handle this" and actually do it. I ONLY run on dirt trails now as my home lies on a trail I ran on 20 yrs ago. Give trail running a go. If it's your first time being out there or maybe your first 🏃♀️ period you'll be all the better for it. See you on the dirt tomorrow AM.
J'ai commencé le vélo de montagne pour perdre du poids mais suite à une grosse chute je me suis tourné vers la course à pied, puis j'ai découvert le trail et j'ai adoré. Je n'ai pas encore fini de course (2 dnf) mais je le ferai bientôt
J'ai également essayer le velo de montange - et j'aimais beaucoup. Mais apres 2 chutes resultant en des côtes cassées, j'ai pris ma retraite! Apres Leadville 100 MTB en 2022, j'ai laver le sang sur mon velo et maintenant il prend la poussiere dans mon garage
Cult recruitment video!! 😂😂😂 That’s actually pretty accurate. I started with cross country in school, did lots of road 5/10ks, then got passionately into hiking/mountaineering. Once I started my own business, I didn’t have time for entire days in the mountains, and started running on my hikes. Then I watched a UA-cam video on the Glen Coe Skyline race, and immediately switched to ultras/trail marathons. I have a non running related heart issue, and my cardiologist actually approved of my ultras, due to the lower intensity. I love spending time in nature- and studies actually have proven exercise is just as effective as medication for certain physical and mental issues. Otherwise, the incredible, friendly, supportive atmosphere/people and delicious food at aid stations are what keep me in this awesome sport, despite my tight time schedule.
I'd be curious to read studies supporting activities in nature such as hiking and trail running for improvement of mental health. It's one of those thing that I never read anything about it - but it seems pretty obvious. But how to demonstrate it...ouch. As a scientist myself, that sounds like an interesting puzzle
@@runningwithsimon There are plenty of studies about exercise being as effective as meds for depression, but for the nature aspect, the Japanese have done some interesting studies. Look up forest bathing.
Great video.....I love the people....the Ironman peeps generally are too high strung....nature, mental & physical fitness. Hard to think of a reason not to get outside and feel grounded with this awesome planet we're on!
I cant run 1mile but enjoy your videos 😅. However im quietly gonna increase hikes and jogging this year . I like love to ride my mtb bike in the countryside but keen to improve muscle and ligament strength . And a bit of variation. Would love to be able to do some cross country running
Didn't you forget something to notice also in trail runs, all kinds of bugs, smaller animals, spider webs, snakes spikey bushes etc. .. By the way very helpful self interview..stay well, God bless you 🫡💪
hi I am 59 and I have a marathon in Ireland 🇮🇪 April 2024 check my hear rate on half marathon trail runs and sad to say my h/r always to high (145 - 150+) NOT Zone 2 :( now i focus on my breathing and strict h/r 120+/- I feel it helps so I have more in the tank so to speak and enjoy not be in pain :( Love your channel and please what do you think ? Thanks , peace
It's fine to run outside of zone 2 also. This is more of a training thing on the long runs, but i often train at higher than zone 2 for other runs. And to stay in zone 2, sometimes it will mean walking too, which is totally fine. With time the speed at which you can run while still in zone 2 will be higher. But it's a different type of adaptation, so fine to go in zone 3 for those 'middle distance' runs.
thanks so much for helping , sound advise I trust your content, be patient ,enjoy (much as you can !) and the results will come. Please tell us about breathing in an episode thanks again peace ✌️
Soreness and stiffness in my legs? No. Your body adapts. I'm a little sore if I go in the 140-160k, but not much. I'm more likely to have sore muscle from strengthening sessions. What is something to watch however at these volume is to have enough rest and recovery, but mostly for tendons/ligaments/joints. My Achilles for example can be sore for a few days to a week after racing 100 miler.
I am planning to do my first half marathon in May 2024 and this might sound like a stupid question but... Is it okay to walk for a few minutes and then go back to running? (Alternating based on my level of fatigue.) Or is this considered a no-no and my half marathon time won't count?
For sure you can use run/walk strategy. It's absolutely ok). Using run/walk depends on how you feel, what is your history of running, your current fitness level, and, of course, your own goal on this particular race. So, walking on a race is OK, don't worry about this)
Totally fine to run / walk - sometimes that's even smarter. If you haven't seen it - check out my "how to run longer without getting tired" which does mention that and other things that have helped me adapt to long distance running! Good luck! :)
i loved running but recently saw videos of dr. Sean Omara explaining how running makes the body accumulate visceral fat that is very bad for health. Now i am only doing sprints. Anyone with a theory about how this dr. may be wrong?
Never heard of that and never heard of him. Call it denial, but I don't see much basis for such theory based on all observations I have from people that are long distance runner (or cyclists)
So what brought you to trail running? And what benefits have you seen?

I can relate. My new garmin is the first sleep tracker I’ve had. Shocking how even 2 drinks, let alone 5+, wreck your sleep.
That's awesome!
@@jcg1272my garmin reflected the same data. Drink=💩sleep. Also running and drinking quite conflicting hobbies.
I’ve been running for 15 years now - currently 59 years old and recently retired. I loved running initially because it provided sanity when my career was unsatisfying.

There are definitely worse ways to handle the mid-life crisis.
@@dombaker8790 lol seriously!
I very much feel that!
Truth! After 5 Ironmans including a Kona finish in my late 40’s to early 50’s it was too much stress.
I have switched to ultra running and am ready for my 10th race of 100 miles or longer next month.

Different vibe for sure! But Kona - that's impressive!!!! Congrats :)
I absolutely love the people I have met in trail and ultra running community. As you said, meeting people as an adult that you enjoy being with for hours at a time is not easy, but this is the greatest experience I have had to learn more about myself and others.
Exactly - it's harder to meet new people as adult, and people you meet trail running share something with you. It's easy to connect
Running gives me an outlet for a really hyper focused personality. I’m someone that really thrives with a large challenge that I can measurably work towards. Races give me that structure to work the rest of my life around and I love it that way.

Never too late! And totally agree on the "Do no harm". It's easy to be impatient but then a minor ailments becomes an actual major injuries :/

Got into running because I love being outdoors. It also helps me deal with stress in a massive way. Thanks Simon! Skål!

Yeah - and I think running doesn't solve any of my problem honestly. But it helps me solve them...if that makes sense
Love that your videos is 15 min or less. Keeping my attention. your sense of keeping it real being a person with job, fam life etc.

It feels good , and it feels good to have challenging milestones and discipline.that’s all there is I guess.
Yeah pretty simple - it helps to have direction and something to work towards
To me - its an outlet - for all of the words I want to say - but - don't know how to say them.
Lovely!
Oops, watching this eating corn chips and drinking beer. The reason(s) I run, lol.
lol don't worry, I won't tell anyone!
Funny your definition of ‘me time’ 😂
It's one of the rare time when work can't pull me in, and I can really do whatever I want.
Thank you :)
You're welcome!
Do you feel sore and stiffness on your leg? I feel sore even at 40k per week
Soreness and stiffness in my legs? No. Your body adapts. I'm a little sore if I go in the 140-160k, but not much. I'm more likely to have sore muscle from strengthening sessions. What is something to watch however at these volume is to have enough rest and recovery, but mostly for tendons/ligaments/joints. My Achilles for example can be sore for a few days to a week after racing 100 miler.

I'm 44, and I can say you are in the right age for starting))
42 is certainly not too late! I think that's pretty standard actually!

Never heard of that and never heard of him. Call it denial, but I don't see much basis for such theory based on all observations I have from people that are long distance runner (or cyclists)
1:14 wait, so I'm not being invited into a cult at all? What a bummer.
To be fair, most cult aren't calling themselves a cult sooooo maybe?
People who run dont look like they work out
lache pas le gros. change ton intro if you wanna quit your job.
Merci!
