@@ElizabethSmith-bf7rf they’re usually longer than 60s so I can’t post them to shorts. I might be able to modify them and make shorter versions for KZfaq, though

Yeah! The way I like to do it is by easing off into them. So if I’m going for 15 miles (like in this video) then I’ll do the first 3 miles at a comfortable pace before cutting down to a moderate pace. That moderate pace is kind of like a long tempo. It’s not an easy run pace, but it’s not a race. It’s a controlled, long, uptempo effort. You’ll know when you find the sweet spot. But for starters, just run them faster than you are now and see where it takes you. If your body doesn’t respond well after a few weeks, then pull off the gas and go back to how you were doing them before. Hope this helps!

Took some G1M sport from BPN before this run, then snagged some more at mile 10. G1M is a carbohydrate drink mix with electrolytes that’s perfect for those long efforts in the summer.

@@TheBrockKelly appreciate it man. Keep it going strong. Enjoying the content as I’m getting ready for my first 100 miler in August

New Balance 1080s! They are great! But I've been rocking the Brooks Glycerin lately, and I can honestly say that they are one of the best shoes I've run in in a very long time.

@@TheBrockKellywhat shoes would you recommend me do for my faster paced long runs like this one and workout days? I currently wear some Asics Kayanos for daily trainers and the Asics Magic Speed 3 (carbon plated) for races. Was looking for like a middle ground between the 2 so I didn’t have to wear my race shoe for my workouts

Might want to look into the Brooks Hyperion Max or the New Balance Rebels.

everyone hating on the steak and pasta hahaha. they were thin cuts, so couldn't do a whole lot. Got the job done for fueling, though

@@user-oo1sc8ij9j long run + threshold or tempo. Two hard sessions. Everything else is easy miles

@@TheBrockKelly okay cool! Yeah trying this on myself and athletes I coach! Haven’t had much experience of fast long runs but will be adding progressive speed into the programming. I see there is benefits of a callous mind for knowing you can push for long. So just shared this video with the kids! Keep up the good work bro. Pray the best for your season!

@@user-oo1sc8ij9j thank you! Glad you enjoyed it. In my opinion, the summer should be fun and low stress. When I do the tempo or threshold work each week, it’s designed in a way where I’m building up my aerobic base and setting the stage for big and fast anaerobic and neuromuscular workouts later in the season. I try to expand the size of that base the best that I can in the summer with easy mileage, long runs, and tempos, but by the time late September and October roll around, we’re crushing workouts that are at race pace or faster which allows us to progress throughout the season. Just some of my thoughts on training that you definitely didn’t ask for hahaha. But figured I’d break it down

Facts bro! Being adding games after their easy run sessions to have them look forward to practices. Cause ya nothing too sexy right now lol.

And yea been adding progressive speed on some short runs now (as there threshold/ tempo session of the week) later this summer we’ll try it on some long runs. Just good to hear more benefits of that.
