Congrats Nick! Way to crush it! Sub 2:40!!!!!!! Let’s go! You are inspiring to get out the door! Did my first EVER long run of 14 miles yesterday at 229lbs! Thanks!!
Great interview. Im in the same camp concerning not fueling before the longruns. I just feel so much better running easy runs that way. Its so personal and no right or wrong in my opinion.
I feel this weight/strength training talk so much. I do not prioritize it at all, and I wish I would. I know I need it, especially as I’m getting older.
Now that your in Tennessee and want a challenge and views. 3 races Hellbender 100 Cruel jewel 108 Beast of the east 100 I believe if you could make some videos even almost charges for a program you need to have really what to do in the gym like I do barred or step in deadly squats maybe a leg press the work on my calfs and besides that and maybe a little bit core and upper body I really don’t know what to do so I know you’re swamped but since you and everybody over there knows so much maybe you guys can put some videos together or something to help out did you do a great for people?
No liquids during a marathon how is that even possible at his size? @ 6' 5" 255 lbs my sweat rate is 5-6 lbs per hour i would be dead without a lot of liquids during the Marathon. i need to replenish/ take at least 10lbs of liquids or 100% cramps . For reference I run sub 4h my best is 3h:49min @260lbs , so typically i lose 18-20 lbs of sweat
It also proves that a lot of general advice is not applicable to a lot of people. I did one marathon so far but am quite fatadapted when running. Conventional wishdome says 60-90grams of carbs per hour. I used a total of 90 grams and finished 3:47 strong. Wich is completely in line with my predicted time based on other shorter race results.
Finished a 3:30 marathon and was hindered by hip issues that resulted as a lack of strength training also. Would love to hear more about the weight training that goes into off season and in-season so I can maintain strength/stability along with my cardio.
Since taking hiatus from running in 2018, and getting back into it in 2019, I've been on a rough journey chasing my best marathon time of 3:22:51 back in 2016. Last September, I got to mile 19, and miles 14-20 of the course was over 600' of elevation (and a total of 1100' overall) and my body ran out of fuel. Everything in training was great, except I got injured out of nowhere 7 weeks out. I gave it everything I had, and finished only 3 minutes slower than my best. I had a 3:15 in me, I know it. Marathon #10 next spring will be it. And marathon #11 will be sub 3 in my 10th year of running. Another cool story - I fractured my foot at mile 25 during my first marathon 9 years ago because of too much mileage too quickly, but I had to finish.
Joe Greer is incredibly kind, humble, and a great podcast guest.

Congrats on sub-2:40 that's insane, and thanks for all the inspiration!!!🔥🔥💯💯
Inspired by this episode! Very transparent discussion about things they were not aware of and things they need to incorporate in their running.
Great interview. Im in the same camp concerning not fueling before the longruns. I just feel so much better running easy runs that way. Its so personal and no right or wrong in my opinion.

I believe if you could make some videos even almost charges for a program you need to have really what to do in the gym like I do barred or step in deadly squats maybe a leg press the work on my calfs and besides that and maybe a little bit core and upper body I really don’t know what to do so I know you’re swamped but since you and everybody over there knows so much maybe you guys can put some videos together or something to help out did you do a great for people?
Lol😂😅

If the guest could say “yeah” “right” “uh huh” just a few more times. I’d be set.
Don’t know how to take water? Amateurs
👎
Nick doesn’t drink any liquids during his marathons‼️my mind is blown 😂

Thanks for the motivation Nick! Just hit my first 20 miler this past Saturday and have the LA Marathon in March 🏃♂️
Hey guys I know you’re new to the distance but it’s called “taper madness” and what you’re experiencing is psychosomatic symptoms.
This was the best pod, you just made me a fan of Greer now. Great heartfelt convo. I wanna know how this run went. Keep up the great content.
I have a 22 miler this week and did 18 this past Sat.
He wouldn’t feel like that after a marathon if he lifted and fueled! But seriously haha
No way you or anyone would run Houston without drinking anything... 🤣 🤣
such a great conversation guys!!
Does anyone know what joe ran?
