Shout out for being a really fit person who hasn’t lost sight of how to talk to true beginners to set them up for success with realistic expectations. I think a lot of people forget what it was like in the beginning and misgauge difficulty for those starting out.

"Every runner talks in miles" as a European I would like to politely disagree lol

As a new and slower runner, I found not only are other not judging you, they ENCOIR you. I can’t believe how many times a faster runner told me “you’re doing great” or “keep at it, you got this” as they passed me.

You touched on the weight topic so sensitively and articulately and beautifully. This is such an important topic thank you!!!!

I'm a lifelong hater of running but I love watching Keltie talk about fitness lmao

I used to be a strictly weight lifting and walking girly, but started to build up my running endurance the last 3 months and WOW. I love it. My first goal is to run a 5K without stopping (~ 30min). I’m not fast at all but idc, I love seeing the progress in my runs and especially in my health. My RHR dropped nearly 10 BPM since I started running. I feel so good.

I run ultras, marathons and all distances and for me the most important thing for anyone in the Thick Thighs club like me is: Biker shorts for the win! I cant go more than 5km without chaffing. i wish i could wear the super short flowy shorts Keltie wears but no antichaff cream/talcum powder etc saves me. The biker shorts are comfy AF, never ride up and ASOS do them super cheap!

I've been running since... I think I was 12? Making it almost 20 years of running! And honestly, running transformed my life. I started out as a chubbier kid who just wanted to up her fitness, so took up running one summer... came back to school pretty fit, joined the school track & field club, then did my first 10K race! Since I graduated high school, I've moved between 5-6 countries/cities, and running has always been the one constant thing in my life. Whenever I'd move to a new city, I'd use running to explore the area, and stay fit. Running for me was an opportunity to unwind, to get time for myself, to clear my head from thoughts... or the opposite, to figure out answers to big questions. Since moving to Finland 2 years ago, I started joining more races, and hitting personal bests in my 5k, 10k, and now, more recently I ran my first half marathon race, finishing in under 2 hours! Running is beautiful, because it's brought both discipline and a lot of freedom into my life. It's awesome to see a resurgence in interest for running, and I'm excited for all the people finding running for themselves!

Running tip: always encourage those around you! Even if you are faster, or feeling fresher. Give a thumbs up, tell the person who is struggling that “you look strong! Keep it up!” It’s amazing how much that helps them and keeps the community loving and strong together.

It’s SOOO important that you’re talking about the fact that running isn’t for weight loss. Running is a high intensity sport and hormonally for a lot of women it can actually put you back in your weight loss journey. For me, it’s all about my mental health - I LOVE running but it gives me hives and causes me to retain weight as compared to walking or low-intensity exercise. I’m not willing to trade it but I’m trying to figure out ways to keep it in my routine without jeopardizing my health journey. Thanks Keltie 🙏

I don't run and don't want to start, but i watched the whole video because Keltie is just so good at keeping things entertaining while being educational. Thanks for another amazing video!

I’m a 30 year old male who relatively recently got into running after years of weight training. I never focused on cardio and instead just did it as an afterthought. Over the past few months I’ve been spending less time in the gym and more time running. The mental benefits and sense of freedom that a run gives are second to none. Maybe it’s just the change in routine, but I think there is more to it than this. It has helped me become more toned, improved my mental health and made me fall in love with training again, instead of just doing it for routines sake. I’m now able to regularly run 10K and have signed up to my first official 10K event in June. This is a great video. Keep up the content. Very informative whether male or female.

I love listening to a book while running, especially if the character has to undergo some kind of training. It feels like I’m working alongside them and running allows me to eat through a ton of books.

When the bug hits is the best feeling. Wanting to go for a run to let all the bad things go and contemplate what’s under your control and what isn’t. Just beautiful.

The weight issue is spot on - all the signals running sends to your body are counter to weight loss. There's also a flip side - trying to lose weight through a nutrition plan *while-at-the-same-time* trying to achieve running performance goals is just a recipe for contradictory messaging - you will not fuel properly and you'll just feel terrible and exhausted. I've learned the hard way that you have to choose one or the other at a time. For myself, moving from 10km races to half marathons is going to require some weight loss, which can only be achieved by lowering my running performance goals for the six months that I'm giving myself to lose the weight, and then I'll start half marathon training again. I'm still running 3x a week, I am just not pushing myself to achieve unrealistic speed or distance goals.

I’m training for a 5k for the first time and one thing that helps is to run with my (midsize) dog. Seeing how happy she gets on the runs makes me want to continue even if I’m tired and my legs are hurting

thank you! i just got back from a 5 mile run!!! two months ago i couldn’t run 2 miles but now i’m consistently running 5 every saturday! i feel so good now

thank you for talking about the weight gain/muscle loss aspect! When I first started running in 2016 I gained weight when I trained for my first half marathon and wish I knew that was even a thing.

running has definitely helped my change my mindset towards food. like you said, eat to run rather than run to eat. i used to think of food as a reward for exercising. that didn't help me much and i started to sort of restrict myself on days i felt that i didn't exercise "enough." i really felt that when i started running. felt weak and tired all the time, until i changed my mindset towards food.

I just ran my first 5k! Thanks for opening me up to the idea of running. Im told the running community can be so fun and id love to get into it. Its hard being the back of the pack. But i did it and ill try it again.

I’m a big chested runner. Big chested sports bras are pricey! I also have worn two low compression sports bras at the same time for a nice layered look and a totally customizable compression feel.

I really appreciate the coverage of topics in this video, and as a guy, really appreciate your perspective as a woman. Always great to learn, and lots of great teaching here. Thank you so much.

Thanks for talking about the weight issue and the misconceptions around it. One thing I think needs to be more explicit is that gaining weight is not the same as putting on a weight vest. Runners who gain weight will probably gain a lot of muscle, which is metabolically active tissue that HELPS your athletic development. More muscle means you can develop a higher strength ceiling and put less stress on your bones and joints. To run efficiently, you need to be strong enough to maintain good mechanics. Gaining fat doesn't have to be negative either - body fat can help your body deal with the stress of running in terms of endocrine health. (When I get below a certain BF%, I get wrecked by hard runs and take ages to recover.) For the devils advocates, no I'm not saying everyone needs to gain weight to run better. There's a healthy range for everyone and I think that most of us are afraid to explore how we feel at the upper end of that range. I've gained weight in the last year and have only gotten faster and fitter.

i'm doing a half marathon as my first race 🥴🤩 kinda nervous, kinda hyped... this just comes at the right time 🏃🏻‍♀️💨

YES, THANK YOU FOR TALKING ABOUT WEIGHT GAIN VS JUST LOSING IT

grateful for this video!! just picked up running last summer after graduating college as someone who used to both hate and fear running. i now love it and am training for a half marathon in the fall :D

I don’t know how you knew I needed this little push in beginning my running/jogging journey. But thank you for the great video Keltie!! ❤

Excited for this one. After many years of cycling instead of running (after a long run streak similar to yours), I’m slowly incorporating it in my routine again. Currently doing a weightlifting and running hybrid program. Loving it so far!

Running a half marathon on the 26th of May. I’m am ready and so excited! Thanks for sharing all your experiences😊

As someone who is slowly getting into running/higher intensity cardio, this is great information! I will be saving this video to rewatch later ❤

So I somehow missed this video last week and only saw it AFTER my first run back after a few long years off from running. Perfect timing. So positive, so full of knowledge and as always you are a total vibe. Thank you!

Wowow I wish this video had come out 2 years ago when I started running. ++ on the weight gain & increased hunger cues too, that fades with time but the initial weight gain for me was jarring. It will go away as you get fitter and you're not hungry all the time, I promise. (to all those worried about this!)

YOUR CONTENT THO 😮‍💨 Your channel is literally such a gamechanger when it comes to health & wellness! 1000/10! 🥹❤️

hey stranger! i have the opposite problem-my left glute is my weakness. i didn’t even realize i had an imbalance till I told my physio I started running and she immediately gave me exercises to strengthen it. for everyone starting a running journey, see a physical therapist if you can-i’m so lucky i was already seeing one for other reasons because not fixing these imbalances can easily lead to injury. cheers to running for the love of it!!

Just ran my first half marathon today, definitely an event im going to remember. The atmosphere, the endorphins, feeling proud of myself.🎉 Now watching your video as a reward 😊

As someone who has run fairly consistently since I was 15 (I’m now 40), and been both petite/small breasted and heavy and large breasted(178 lbs after giving birth and I’m 5’4”), I have some experience and input on running heavy, boob bounce as well as running too much with not enough muscle tone/weight lifting. First off: the best “sports bra” for big Ol’ boobies is not one but 2 bras. Wear a comfortable full coverage regular 2 cup bra and a fitted but comfortable full coverage wide strap sports bra over it (extra points for one that zips in the front so you don’t have to strain your neck putting it on). The sports bra will hold the cups in place and the cups will hold the boobies in place without bounce or suffocation. Took many years for me to figure that out. They tried to make built in combo units at VS back in the day, don’t know if they still do, but they sucked and they were too tight or too loose and the wires pinched. Go the 2 bra route. More laundry, less pain, less bounce, more air and ease of breathing. Second: About heaviness: I want just heavy - I have heavy friends that run and nothing bounces - they’re solid. When I was heavy, I would take a few steps into running, and all my flesh would lift up and go airborne and then come crashing down and slam into the earth, bounce back up and hit me in the face. It was not just uncomfortable, but quite painful and embarrassing. Thankfully I was single and in no hurry or pressure to be gorgeous, so I laughed about it and gave myself grace and took it slow. I realized I needed the equivalent of an entire body bra. I got some high wasted breathable spanx-style running pants, I wore multiple bras and a fitted running tank with a built in bra over my double brai mentioned earlier. Not super comfortable, but better my whole body being one huge bouncing boob. I also couldn’t run as far because it felt so heavy, so I didn’t haven’t to wear it long. I’d run the equivalent of two of my neighbors yards, probably like 100 meters, and then walk. Then I’d do it again. Maybe five times, turn around and walk home. Then I’d go a little farther the next week. I never pressured myself to hurry and lose weight so it took about 18 months too get back down to 120lbs, and that’s okay. The important part was enjoying it enough to keep doing it, good music, my sister would go with me and we would laugh, feeling healthy and patient. Lastly, I’m tiny, bony, and 40 now. If I try to just get back into running without a warmup phase and intermixing resistance training, everything doesn’t just hurt, and straight up stops working. Please, ladies, even if it’s just twice a week, lift some weights, core workouts like Pilates, and do some lunges and deadlifts and overhead presses or modified pushups and dips. Your bones and joints will thank you. Your back and neck absolutely cannot take constant pummeling and jarring impact without some bracing muscle to girdle/corset them in place, and your knees and ankles and hips will straight up quit. Love your bodies, love yourselves!

💓love your perspective on 'health'. I like to go on a run before we go out to dinner somewhere, because it makes me soooo hungry, then I can have a starter, a big dinner (and a few bites of whatever my boyfriend ordered) and dessert, and still feel physically really good after devouring a small mountain of food. Definitely started running to lose weight - didn't work at all - but ended up loving life a lot more.

you are such a nice positive personality to have in social media! Your videos are always what I am looking for, and you come across one of the most real and normal personalities! Thank you for putting content out there!!!

I have to say thank you for this I’m looking for just some beginner running advice and I had to close like three videos before this that just made me feel so bad and felt so out of tune with where I’m at as an actual beginner! This video actually felt helpful being specific enough about times and frequency and types of runs without being over ambitious or intimidating, so thank you for being realistic and not scaring me away

18:30 I love that analogy for long run/raceday and game day/championship! So true and a great way to approach those runs.

After a rough 1/2 marathon last year after the passing of my grandmother, I've been completely out of running and this was exactly what I needed before I ease back in. Thank you for all your tips! Your videos are always so motivating 🤍

I ran my first marathon and listened to hitting the bars the entire way! I actually listen to you guys during all my runs!!

this is absolutely incredible and perfect for someone either just getting started or a seasoned runner needing some tips. you feel so approachable and helpful!

I’m a fairly seasoned runner but there is always something we need to be reminded of. Thanks Kellie

I have never been a runner but want to build a healthy habit. I just did five minutes without stopping, and it was terrific. I am mentally and physically training for a first-stop kilometer. It might not be much, but I'm very excited. Wish me luck!!!!

I try to avoid your content because we have nothing in common but you are so interesting and intelligent, topically, that you're a favorite. Loved the Sweden v Canada post.

I did my first 5k race with my spin gfs in April and it was an absolute blast, signed up for another in June and am doing a half with my brothers in sept! I used to have panic attacks over track and field as a kid and now I’m casually running 11k cause the suns out. I feel like runnings made me a happier person 100%

Omg thank you for mentionning The Running Room! I have several issues wih my feet and haven’t had food experiences with podiatry when it comes to help finding the right shoes or even inserts. Really good to know there’s a place that personalizes the shoe suggestions!

Every beginner runner needs to watch this video! So many things I wish I knew in the beginning.

Hey Keltie, this has ben super helpful and transparent for me as someone returning to running after a long stint off. I used to run lots and did a couple of 10ks but haven't done any training or events for 5 years. Fast forward to now I'm going through a bit of a rough patch and signed myself up to a 10k to give me a goal to focus on. I will add, that i have a mild form of cerebral palsy so training has looked totally different to what you'd typically imagine a runner to do ( fewer long runs, more mobility etc.). Your videos have been like a check point every week regardless of the subject to think about how to approach my fitness and running goals. I especially appreciate that you don't demonise peoples food choices for training ( candy before a run lol) and in short appear more 'real talk' than most influencers. My 10k is this Saturday so maybe I'll update here or on this weeks video how I got on?

that first beer after a run really hits the spot, i agree

Love this video! I've been running for about 18 years now and I can relate to most of the things you were saying! Today I'm running a trail race, it's half marathon and tomorrow I will start a new training program for a marathon (its in Oct). I'm 7 months postpartum so today's race is going just to be about fun, being in forest, about vibes and people :D Greeting from Estonia!

One of my favourite videos of yours Keltie (and I love most of them)! Very informative and enjoyable. You are such an inspirational content creator. Keep it up girl!

can we please stop and appreciate the quality of Keltie’s content????? Thank you queen!!👏🏼

SO cool bumping into you just in the streets the other day, that was UNREAL!❤❤🎉🎉

Half-Marathon training first timer! Definitely learning to let go of my ego and when Nike Run Club doesn't track my run I shed a tear but this made me feel better. It 100% still counts.

This is perfect I’m literally about to leave for a run!

This is a great video and as someone who’s currently starting to enjoy running once a week ( I play club sports in Europe so I only do one session in the on season) I would like to give some recommendations. I am more curvy than Keltie so if you have thicker thighs you might like it: the lulu align 10/15 inch shorts, the sit perfectly for me, don’t ride up and reduce cheffing. Also the high impact energy bra from lulu (adjustable) is so great, you’re girls will not move (which I like). Invest in a stick that reduces cheffing and put that on every where: where you’re bra straps are, on you’re thighs, under arms, in the elbows (this one is a game changer for me) etc. Third: I just recently got a running vest and love it, I usually cannot go further than 5k as I was getting so thirsty and got headaches. Get a running vest you can put water in, you’re key, some cash, you’re phone… I love it. I am also starting to do the Natasha Oceane hybrid program during my off season (it’s not the full 12 weeks but I’ll do it for eight). I like it a lot as you can pick what you’re goal is, if you want to do more weights or running and she includes running specific exercises that also help me with my club sport.

My Brooklyn Half people, let’s get it next Saturday!

So this might just be my area thing but after every organized run event they have a cooler full of beer! A couple of the races even had shots of bayou rum at water stations you can choose to have or not. So 1000% can understand the beauty which is that first taste of the bubbles after a run! Fantastic information as always and currently petting my puppers now!!!

I saw someone say that race day is the celebration that you trained and got there and that changed my mindset a ton

training for my first half-marathon in September - haven't properly trained in about 2 years, but I'm using the NRC training guide -been loving it so far!

My biggest tips as someone who always hated running and is running her second half marathon this summer: to start it of you really have to make it fun and listen to yourself. I started properly running several times, like 10 week programs to get from zero to 1 h of steady running and other plans. They worked but they didn’t make me feel good and I always fell off right after. Then about 3 years ago I elf like going on a run. The weather was nice, I was craving movement, I put on my shoes and went. I ran for about 2 km, took a shower and felt soooooo freaking good. So I went again 3 days later and did 3 km. And all of a sudden, running was something I liked and from there I went up to 5k and 10 k so fast I didn’t even notice. Your body will work differently than others so plans don’t always work for you. They might be a good guide later on once you know what works and how you could adapt them. Also: don’t worry about pace. I used to push myself so much I’d throw up regularly on runs I was absolutely able to do before because I thought I should be able to hit a certain pace. Now I realize my body does a lot better with a slower pace and a longer distance and it’s great! And lastly: run with a friend or while on the phone for long runs. It helps keep the pace low enough and makes the time fly past. All in all: just figure out what works for you by making it fun and celebrating the small wins!

Just started running again after an almost 10 year hiatus because I injured myself. Thank you so much for the info and hype!

I remember when I was training for my first half marathon, a friend invited me to a "Eat everything out of our Fridge" Party because they were moving. I was in my longer mileage by then and I respectfully declined because A) I didn't know what she had in her fridge. B) I didn't want to risk a bathroom emergency during my long run. My friend kept pushing saying, "Oh you will just burn everything off." I said, "That's not how it works."

I love when you say that in swimming your pressured to be lean, and especially women, i can relate to that so much as a female swimmer i am skinny but its like im always trying to smaller, love ur videos!❤

The past 2 years I went from 0 experience to running 4 halfs, 1 relay race, 1 trail race, a full marathon, and joining a track club. I wish I had found this before! It took me a year to figure out the shoe situation, and probably longer than that to figure out how to properly fuel. I was not prepared for the weight gain and bloating! I've learned so much and become stronger mentally but I am ready to transition to shorter distances and lifting again! This is an amazing video, thank you!!

The section on weight loss/ weight gain was beautifully done Keltie. Everyone who would like to begin running should listen to this advice. I have been running for many years now, and I definitely eat so I can run and that normally means eating super clean to maintain a comfortable running weight and enough to get energy and nutrients but not to end up with an upset stomach after longer runs or speed workouts. Thanks for the video.

Thank you so much, Keltie. Loved the long video so much. I am so happy there are people like you out there educating us in an honest way. ❤ A video about fitness/running watches would be awesome!

BEER AFTER RACING - I'm here for it ❤

I love running. I run about 14 miles a week and I Already have run a 10k and a 5k this year! I love this video ( although a little long) you shed light on something so important… the fact that a run doesn’t always need to be your best, your hardest, or a PR. I cannot tell you the last time I didn’t run with my watch.. you got me thinking I may need to bring back the reason I fell in love with running… THE FREEDOM however lately I’ve created so many “musts” and obsessions around my runs I think I stole my own freedom away Thank you for this reminder!!!

I used to absolutely despise running but now I like it a lot! I don’t run a lot, (just once a week), and I’m not fast by any means 😅 But I enjoy myself which is far more important! Loved the tips you gave and I feel you, I NEED to listen to music while I run or it’s not happening lol

jösses... I think I did 3 runs last year (no, not races, runs...) and I´ve been longing to get back to it, but just waited for the stars to align or something... while just getting more and more out of shape... so when I saw this video I was just like "why don't I just do it?!" I just got back home after a very slow and awkward 3 km and I am soooo proud and happy!!!

Perfect timing video, I signed up for a marathon on a whim a few days ago, I started running in January and overdid it and haven't run since March 😅 I'm super excited to get back into it and train but it's also pretty scary

Love hearing that over the head headphones look cool 😆 I lost my running earbuds and have been having to use my headphones but always feel like a dork with a big clunky machine on my head, but I love that some people think they’re cool! ☺️👍

i started running this time last year. telling myself that i _have to_ eat or i won't allow myself to workout has been (and still is) a game changer

Omg! I have watched your videos periodically and enjoyed them, but this video tipped me into major fan mode. As a girlie who’s bigger chested, fluctuated weight, and also marathoned, had a baby and finding my way back to running, this video was a sigh of relief. AND spoke to the ego of the thing! Why do I change my gait when others run by!? My training plan is sacred, and zone 2 is as well. Thank you for this!

thank you for this keltie, i bet this took so long for you to research and make! i’ve been running since may 2022, but only consistently since last june, so nearly a year, doing my first 10k event two weeks today, and signed up for a half marathon in november (which is terrifying + hilly + cold but i’m taking the full six months to properly prepare myself!), i learnt loads from this video!

Yea....not a runner but I'm here for Keltie 😊❤

It was a real struggle for me to get these long runs in on the weekend. Hated running in circles or through the city. But since I started to invest the extra time to get out of the city into nature its a blast every week! 1-2h into nature, a nice 2-3h roundtrip (komot) somewhere with trees, fields, small mountains,... and then 1-2h back. Game changer.. I believe you call it trail running 😅❤

Thank you for showing actually slow running for a bit of the video. I have a really hard time going slow for me because I feel like I'm already slow so should be pushing, always. This inspired me to go for an actually slow run and it's maybe the first time I've actually enjoyed running in a very long time.

Calling candy the cheap person’s gel is so real😂😂my go to is sour patch kids. I’m on a journey of becoming more consistent with running, so this video came at the perfect time. Love your content Keltie!

I get more out of my workouts when I'm not on a treadmill (looking at numbers and finding a logical stopping point) but when I'm running on a track or something. I focus on how I feel, start/stop running in the shade, walk half a lap and run half a lap, etc. With exercise induced asthma, running hasn't been a problem with the run half walk half a lap option. Podcasts or music is a non-negotiable. It depends on the day and activity.

Did my first half marathon this November. I'm so glad I invited friends to do it with me. Accountability buddies saved me

Could you do a video on all of your mobility exercises? LOve your channel

Love this video raw and real about the dark side of physical activity running, biking, weightlifting, nutrition etc…😊 everything in moderation!🙏

As someone who worked in Run Specialty for years (and, was actually a rep that covered the US based Running Room stores- shout out to Running Room!)- THANK YOU KELTIE for plugging going to a running store to get fitted! Please, please do this if you plan on running with any kind of regularity. Recommendations from friends, online sources, etc are a good starting point for a conversation but folks at a run store are well trained on what to look for in your feet and lower body to make sure you won't get injured. Just because you're seeing hundreds of people wearing one brand doesn't mean they'll work for you (case in point- On. Love their look, their vibe, everything but they just don't work with my foot shape and biomechanics. Sad times for me but I found shoes that work and it's all good now) And, again - THANK YOU Keltie for plugging going to a running store to get fit.

My favorite sports bra ever are the Anita brand bras and they have some of those odd sizes you won't always find in stores.

Keltie, this was a fantastic video, and one of my faves of yours in a long time! I don't run, but hoping to get it together enough to begin soon. If and when I do, I'll come back to this video for reference and tips! Hope you're doing well, and I appreciate your fitness content! ❤

Currently injured and unable to run... I love running and I am so excited to get back to it when I am healed enough to do so!

For me running is my „good morning“ three times a week. I love to get up, snack something, warm up amd then run, especially at this time of the year. (I‘m from Germany and when I go for a run now at 5:30 a.m., the sun is rising🤩)

I have been loving the couch to 5k app so far. I’m already noticing that my running intervals are more enjoyable after doing about 8 of the run days (across 2 weeks). As a complete beginner gym and yoga girlie I highly recommend it

Just signed up for my first 1/2 and you answered every one of my questions. Thank you so much!!

I actually gained 2kg throughout my peak marathon training - but it helped me push my body thorugh a f*** marathon, so keep up🙌

I can't believe i watched 45 min video and haven't felt bored a single second. You hit the right pace and I agree with everything you said. Unless you're aiming for a PR the soecifics of your training are probably not as important as you think they are 😂

i LOVED this video keltie!! I currently do boxing/HIIT training and started my running journey in beginning of March of this year. I was slowly upping my mileage over the last two months (my highest was 5.5 miles, which was crazy to accomplish as someone who hasn't run consistently for years) and started seeing improvements on my speed and pace which was super exciting. But, one day I don't think I stretched enough, tried some new shoes, and ultimately injured myself on the back of my left knee. I'm a little nervous to get back into running after getting that injury but I'm taking this video as a sign to get back to it! This was a really helpful video and will definitely use it going forward, hoping to sign up for my first 10k in the coming months 😊

I’ve regained my love of running lately. Nothing feels as great as a good run and it’s the only cardio that works for me to keep my legs trimmed down.

For bigger chested people shock absorber is a good recommendation as well! They are insanely good at, as the name suggests, absorbing impact and holding everything in place!

I've been a runner for 10-15 years and the only time I have been super fit in that time is when I was also lifting weights consistently --- I don't really think endurance sports are great for weight loss, they're great for heart and lung health though!
