Tip #8: Chunking! - When things seem daunting, just focus on the immediate chunk: "gotta get *this* rep done", "Lets get to the next water tap", "Just one more race this season"..... whatever makes sense for the goal you're aiming for.

I thought chunking was what you do after your run and a gallon of chocolate milk.

I joined a running club very recently and deliberately put myself in a group that I knew was at a pace well below what I normally run as I find it really hard to hold myself back on my solo runs. I felt fantastic afterwards and really felt like it was aerobically beneficial. Still don't know why I can't just stick to my plan of going easy as I have heard this 80/20 rule so many times. I guess it's like, "Right, you got yourself out the door, let's get the most of this" but actually end up not really getting the most as the plan was to buildi aerobic base. (hope that makes sense). Anyway, another great vid. Thank you
@georginaK21 8 ай бұрын
Threshold runs do actually build the aerobic base more than slow runs do though. The 80/20 thing is just about injury avoidance whilst getting in as much volume as possible.
@lupsik1 6 ай бұрын
Maybe your volume is too low? At high enough volume, 80/20 is simply the only way to not overtrain and get injured. And you want a lot of volume.

I did my first marathon this year and I totally felt your pain in your face when you were struggling. I faced this too. My worst part was not being able to run more than 10 paces because of the overwhelming pain at one point. It was either do a run/walk option or not finish at all and I wasn’t going to do that. I had three goals for my marathon, and the first one was to cross the line ✅ secondly was to run it all - that didn’t happen and lastly was to do a sub 5hour. Well I missed out in that by only 5 minutes 😢 I always said I was only ever going to attempt this once….but who knows what is in the cards in the future 🏃♀️

Essential kit for the wintertime (for most people anyways): A headtorch/lights!! You want to know where you‘re putting your feet to prevent nasty falls and twisted ankles and be seen by cars/bikes crossing your path. Especially as a cyclist I can’t stress enough that, on an unlit path, you‘re basically invisible without lights/reflectives. I‘ve been very much spooked by people suddenly appearing in my light-cone

Tip 7, is on point. When I start feeling tired I just visualize that I’m still running normally and about to cross the finish line. This really does help me feel like I can keep going.

I struggle with a lot of these things as well! I currently run 3x a week on the road and 3x a week on the treadmill with one active recovery day. I'm beginning to think that maybe this is a bit too much and should probably add another active recovery day to my weekly routine. Thoughts?

Not all of us are young enough to still have a menstrual cycle - for example, I'm a 76 year old female runner. Some tips for older runners would be much appreciated. In fact how about a whole video on that? ... after all, bar accident or disease, everyone will grow old. And a video treating us older people as normal, not as some oddity because we're still running, would be good. More and more people over 50 are taking up running, and medical opinion is in favour of that (unlike years gone by when it was thought it was bad for you to keep running into your twilight years) so we're not the minority we once were.
@Suzilaurajones88 3 ай бұрын
I see a lot of older people running and I go to spin classes where the average age is higher than most may expect. I actually think older people embrace cardio in a way that younger people don't seem to, on average. That could just be my perception though!
@michaeldallaway1988 8 ай бұрын
The bit that people skip over with 80/20 is that you might decrease the intensity of your runs, but you need to really increase your mileage. It's not really an 'easy' option
@fergusdenoon1255 8 ай бұрын
Not sure you need to increase your mileage, by running slower doing the same milage you increase the time you're running which improves your endurance, everything else then follows.

What if you don't have a talking pace, as I can run a 21min 5k and still talk ?? So how do I find out what it is ??
@QMTimeisnotreal 8 ай бұрын
The level is different for everyone. As you become fitter the bar will get higher, it sounds as though you are not racing hard enough. When I was a teenager 7 min mile pace was a warm up. If as you say, you can talk at this pace for 5k, then you are not trying. In your case you should be looking to race at about 5:30 min mile pace, you wont be talking then. However, this might not be possible if you haven't trained to do so, that is what the other 20% is for e.g. 3 x 800metres at sub 2:20 min pace for each 800, and so on. Without such training you will become one paced, which is okay if that makes you happy.

make a video of yourself from time to time to see if your self-perception matches the video. It is not bad if your own running style does not correspond to that of Elite Runners, but you can still recognize some things. Overstride and the foot strike, for example.
