Great video Nathan. Another tip I'll add for your audience is when taking liquid iron to intentionally avoid any Caffeine in all forms 2hrs earlier side of the liquid iron. Studies show it along with heavy grain consumption (phytic acid particularly) blocks up to 80% of iron being absorbed. A common problem for non athletes but particularly distance athletes. Tat and foot strike iron loss means attention to detail really is crucial. Cheers from Aus 🎉😊.
Coach: been training super hard these last a couple months just putting my head down and going after it of course we’ve our ups and downs with injuries and life also etc - Anyways my goal for Chicago was 2:49 from sub3 in Boston this past April . I just did 21mi this sat at 6:40pace - I felt strong and ready . Still have a one more long run and a 10k race . Thank you for everything- will keep you posted. Age 45 😎
Outstanding work dropping that 21 miler at 6:40 pace. You, my friend, are READY. Keep hydrating well, get that taper right, run the tangents in the race. You're ready for a sub 2:49. I know you can get it.
Hey Nathan, another great video, thanks. I doubt you remember but we spoke earlier this year when I did my first half in 16 years back in March and got 1:31 (age 42). Managed to beat that on Sunday with a 1:26 at Cardiff so mind now shifting to sub 1:25 or better at my local half in March and potentially my first marathon next year. Loving the videos, great work, keep them coming! Thanks! 🙏🏻
Superior work you are dropping Ross. Keep up the outstanding training and racing. Congrats on that 1:26 performance at Cardiff and yes, you will run well below 1:25 by March. Thanks for your support.
Hi At the age of 51, I've found that I feel much fresher for my hard runs when I run the majority of my runs at easy pace, coupled with a few days of rest. I've found with this method that I've actually progressed running at higher zones and I now love hard runs as I'm better conditioned.
Great video coach, I'm 39 so i'm not really old but kind of old. I just started running in March but the grind has been something I've been missing my whole life.
Thanks Nathan for sharing this important information, i just ordered liquid iron instead of pill. Blood test on the way…as a mid age athletes we need to look into these like nutrition, rest hydration more carefully. 👍
We need to quit trying to compete with our younger selves. I'm competing with my future self so I'm not an old fat man sitting in an easy chair. Thanks for the reminder that I need a blood test. I've been taking folate for years but just started taking Iron earlier this year and need a blood test to see what it's doing. As I get older my iron levels have fallen slightly every year. I need a list of what blood tests I should get to ask the doctor about because doctors so often are only treating diseases and not athletes.
I'm kind of f'ed up, in a Prefontaine kind of way. WAVA Age Grading Calculators, developed by the World Association of Veteran Athletes (the world governing body for masters track and field, long distance running and race walking) - are a great way to compete against a younger version of yourself - and be better than you've ever been, despite being slower and it being 20 or 30 years later.
@@therapygrind The calculator says: Congratulations for trying but you suck LOL . . . But I'm trail running and the calculator does not know I'm doing 1500 ft of elevation gain/loss. Today was my fastest 1-mile in three years (since I got a HR monitor) but I dont know what section of my 8 mile trail it was on. Just shy of a PR on this 8 miles and I was not even trying for it. I'm pretty sure I'll get a new PR by next week. After today's 8 miles I felt good enough that I was debating doing it again.
It's the same with alcohol In my twenties I could drink all night and go straight to work. Now in my fifties it takes three to four days to get back to normal
I'm intriged by the lowering testosteron and growth hormone as we are getting older. These hormones make your muscles grow, after you did your workout. Turns out they are being released during deep sleep. In other words, you can train your ass off, and not get the benefit if you don't get enough deep sleep! To get enough deep sleep you simply need to go to bed early and do that consistently. If you do not do that yet, you might improve a lot by simply enjoying more sleep 😇 😴.
