Hi Seth. I has been a while since i was here but good to be back bud. I had cancer last year and chemo. The cancer didn't do any damage itself but the Chemo didn't go well at all and caused a lot of problems. Fast forward to today and i am on the come back trail. Had my first longish mountain run on Sunday, 11 miles 4000ft ascent. One of the side effects of the Chemo is i have a Scotoma in my right eye so have a blind spot where my right side peripheral vision should be. Get that surfers eye sorted bud. While not painful at all it is a constant nuisance. Take care and keep turning the door knob Sir 👍
Who said runners aren’t tough
We love you Pat, thanks for sharing and know where here to support. ❤
Great to see you enjoying your runs again Seth! Best wishes for your eye and have a wonderful time with your family.😊
Wishing you good luck and a speedy recovery my friend
Good to see you!
Hey Seth, I am an Optometrist from good ol’ Germany (therefore excuse my School English). But anyway trust your Optometrist because a Pterygium (the German word is Flügelfell), is one of the easiest to diagnose Eye Conditions out there. Many people who suffer from that Condition will not get a surgery, because most of the time it doesn’t grow further and therefore doesn’t affect your eyesight. What it COULD do is a) it pulls on your Cornea and this leads to an irregular Astigmatism, and b) it could grow onto your Cornea and you will surely see worse. But only these two Conditions will cause a surgery. So if you observe a worsening of your Eyesight, go see an Ophthalmologist and if you don’t everything is going well… The best wishes for you and your family
THANK YOU! These insights are very helpful. I appreciate this so much and be well in Germany.
You are a great man! Whereabouts in Germany are you from? A great country and people. I just ran the Berlin half marathon with my brother who lives there.
Good to see you online again. Best wish to you, Sir.
Praying that you find the best route and doctor to the best path forward on your eye injury brother! My girls and I got you in our prayers My friend and for a quick recovery!! DGR STRONG! 🙏🙏💪🏽💪🏽
Thank you for the wisdom on training.
Wishing you a good healing for your eyes :)
love the beard
i want to say here that tomorrow i am trying for a PR in the half. i am 53 yrs old. but started back at the basics, follwed a plan and practiced confidence and mental positivity!!
WILL KEEP Y'All posted........
Wishing you all the best Seth! Hope you get the eye issue sorted out!
Get well soon buddy, hope everything goes well 🙏
Good to see you Seth! Sorry about the injury!
Speedy recovery! Hope to run with you soon!
Good morning Seth, So surprised/excited to see your video this morning. I didn't know that you've made some videos since your break from TH-cam. Tell you what, it was like seeing an old friend and didn't realize how much I missed seeing your videos during my morning coffee routine. Turned 50 this year and have been turning that doorknob and buttering that bread more consistently than ever. You and the family look terrific and happy you're all doing well. And so happy you showed up in my TH-cam algorithm again.
Thanks for the update, SJD! Two races so far in ‘24: The Zion Half Marathon and the Wild Canyon 50 K Ultra. Two grand masters wins in my new age bracket;-) Lots of weight-lifting. Looking forward to my peak race in August, the Grand Traverse from Crested Butte to Aspen. Prayers for your full recovery!
It's good to see your face, take care Seth.
All the best!
Hey Seth! I hope this works itself out and hang in there!
Looking good brother!
Nice to see ya Seth!
Great to see you Seth! Wondering if you’re planning on going to Pike’s Peak this year as the finale of my 60th birthday tour! 😂 I’m finally going to be in the Marathon! So excited. Good luck with your eye. All the best to you and your family ❤
Man, I miss the daily vlogs.
Great vlog as usual Seth. Goals for 2024 is my A race being a 50k mid September. So far I haven't really started the training block yet but I am running and trying to stay healthy and also trying to avoid injuries as well.
Mobility, core is such a great idea to be strong before starting to train harder. Keep up the good work.
Seth, please do not neglect and take care of it as your doctors see fit. I have a growth inside my left side of my mouth that I have neglected and now find myself in pain and inability to bind trying to find an ENT specialist that can help me out. Take care!
Always fun to see local landmarks in your videos. That's my local track too, it's a good one. Hope the eye business stays low-drama for you and you can still hit all of those beautiful runs in the mountains. I've used skydiving goggles in the past for some winter bike commuting to help keep out wind, might be a good option for you some days too, check them out.
Hi Seth,
Happy to see you train at full pace.
QOD : my mail goal is done, be under 4 on the marathon, done at Paris last week. Now time to think about the next goal !
Get well and nice goggles :-) !!
At the beginning of this year I said that my goal was going to be focusing on enjoying running rather than focusing on results. Over the past couple years I got really into running and what started out as a fun way to stay in shape turned into a bit of an obsession with training, so I wanted to take a step back and return to just having fun. Unfortunately in February I had a blood clot in my leg which has forced me to take 2 months of running and am only just now getting to return. I've definitely lost a lot of fitness and I do still occasionally get pain in the leg so it's definitely a good reminder to focus on just having fun for now and appreciating that I can get back out there. Hope your injury doesn't hinder your progress too much!
Get well friend!
Sounds like it is a better injury than a lot of other running injuries.
Glad to see you back! I have been wearing contacts or classes since 2nd grade. On occasion, I toss on glasses instead of my contacts to protect my eyes from the elements. I live in Wisconsin. Brutal weather just like Colorado. The cold wind can do damage to the eyes. Ski goggles work great! Glad to see your back, but breaks are good for the body too! Life happens!
God bless you seth keep up good work I have learn a lot from you thank you. Don't give up make difference
Let's gooooo Max, never give up.
Keep on Keeping on.....🛻🛻🛻🛻
Agh geez Seth sorry about the eye. Get better soon!!!
Hope the eye heals up well, goggles look pretty slick 😎🤙 2024 goals going well wrt distance and elevation, good to recently get up into French Alps for some training pre race season. Bring on the race face…
I am trying to keep my weekly mileage around 60-70km and ocasionally bumping a bit and taking some easier weeks or increase the volume. No races planned yet but just trying to keeping it fun and have a good base.
Hope you get sorted your injury Seth.
Cheers!
Rocking the beard❤
Started training for a 5k in June…am finally able to get back after having 2 strokes and shoulder total joint replacement surgery this last December, have also lost 50 pounds 11:15 11:15 …feeling good and excited to be healthy again!!
Thanks for sharing what the goggles are for! Hope it all gets figured out!
Ptrygium...I've had a few. These things DO come back. Just wear sunglasses, like you mentioned. Whew!
This is a fitting vlog for where I am currently at in my training. I am dealing with a bit of a niggle in my knee, assuming it’s runner’s knee from overuse. I’ve only run a couple times that past couple of weeks and listening to my body to not overdo it.
I’ve got my next 10K race at the end of my which is my goal race. Fortunately, some pressure is taken off since I hit my 10K PR goal in my February 10K (in Ohio) with a time of 42:41, almost a 2 minute PR. For my upcoming race, assuming I can get back to normal running, I look to go sub 42 minutes in the 10K.
We’ve definitely had our fair share of wind here in Colorado the past month
Nice to see you back Seth.
Hoping the goggles will help to keep your 👀 save
Also I'm, of course, battling 2 tears in my right knee but the doctors and I have decided on the non surgical route! It's my meniscus in my right knee. I'll be cycling for another month after a month of rest already. Should scar over and I can get back to running. Looking to The Pikes Peak Marathon for my next race still! WE GOT THIS! DGR STRONG BROTHER!💪🏽💪🏽🙏🙏
sounds like a young man's cataract. i had my entire cornea transplanted. we are behind you 100.
Main running goal of 2024 is a sub 17:30 5K, raced a week ago and clocked 17:34. Hopefully will do it on the next one🤞
keep us posted on the pursuit! we're all excited for you
I kind of want those goggles you have! You should sell pairs on your website!
Good to see you still getting out the door, butter my bread 🍞✅🥯👍🏼✌️🌴👣🏃🏽♂️
Hey Seth,
I've had pterygia in both eyes for 30 years (47 now) with same light blue eyes as you and used to surf snowboard a lot in high school.
They've never become an issue or grown any larger mainly down to fact that I just wear sunglasses ALL THE TIME now when outside in any sort of bright sun. So keep rockin the future goggles! 😎
Really appreciate this insight. Thanks for sharing and glad it never has led to surgery.
Love love love the birthday mile idea… especially at age 57. Trying to slow down the process of getting old!
Hope your eye issue can be resolved, I haven't heard of "surfer's eye" before. I'm glad you mentioned kettlebell exercise: I mentioned it in running forums in years past and how it really helped the power in my stride. Never really had anyone acknowledge the benefit on those forums, so maybe you having such a large audience, Kbell work can be taken more seriously for runners!
Loving the kettle bells, just getting started with them. Keep trucking out there
SJD, what are those cool goggle sunglasses with the strap that you were wearing in the video?
Congrats
Hey Seth, will you review the Adidas Terrex Agravic Speed Ultra? Would love to hear your impressions!
Speedy Recovery with your eye!
Qod: Ah man, I am glad you posted this. I am just trying to get back to running after a meniscus tear that I think is going to need surgery I did 3 runs and no go, still hurts but I have a lot of weight to lose so I am sure that's a factor. I was frustrated at first but now I am just resolved to lose the weight so I can get back to running.
Someone needs to make a wind tight hybrid ski mask/sunglasses. Wind is a real problem for me with sunglasses but I don't want to lug around a a full ski mask on my face.
Eyes need moisture, too ✨ Ask your doctor about daily moisturizing eye drops and bedtime eye ointment to help prevent dryness and soften up your “Ter- ridge- e-um”🤗 Some people have them scraped off if the heavy moisturizing doesn’t resolve the issue. Moisturizing and reducing glare will be a must but ask your doctor 🤗🏃🏻♂️
Yes!! Definitely doing the eye drops. Thanks for encouraging me to keep at it
I was on a 6 1/2 month deployment (sept 23 - apr 24) so did not set any goals for Q1 2024. Could not train due to the airpolution on location.
Goal this year is to train for the Rotterdam marathon 2025 under supervision of a trainer from Runnersworld Rotterdam.
I had surgery for a pterygium several years ago; I was a competitive tennis player growing up so was exposed to the sun a lot. The surgery went well with no recurrence; I had a conjunctival tissue graft using glue instead of sutures. While the surgery was painless, the recovery was not fun, very painful for several days. Its important to ask the surgeon what their rate of recurrence is. Good luck Seth!
Wow, really appreciate this insight. Thanks for sharing and will keep everyone posted
Does anyone have any tips on loss of motivation???? I love running but I’ve been struggling with motivation to continue training, it comes and goes, I have big goals but I struggle to persue training. If anyone has any tips I’d love to hear them, thank you.
Seth with scruff looks cool.
I missed the first two months too .. got a 🐶 🤗
.. puppy has separation anxiety 🥺
if you don't want to stick with goggles for whatever reason, you may consider looking at some road/mtb cycling goggles. they tend to wrap better around the face and have better ventilation than sunnies made for most other applications including for snow. finding one that fits your face and still blocks wind can be the tough part. but it may allow you to get wind/sun protection even with a photochromic lens (lighter for more light transmission in low light conditions) so you could use at night too. plan b for those could be a set with interchangeable lenses to pop in a rose/yellow/clear lens for low light conditions.
A shoe back pack??? Fancy!
Ok Seth, I identify with this vision injury. 4 decades of running here, many different running injuries (PF, IT band, dog bites). However, my longest running (pun) injury is vision impairment. I have to wear prescription glasses, which can get quite expensive having different ones for different conditions. First world running problems to be sure. Thanks for sharing your latest struggle.
And I appreciate you chiming in. Keep on running Erik.
Oh man at least your getting it looked at and corrected. I never heard of that BUT I've had "Surfers ear" where salt water will cause a growth in the ear. It wasn't painful but it would feel like water was stuck in my ear and couldn't come out. Eventually it just went away and I never had a problem since. They suggest ear plugs for me. Hoping the best for you!
All the best Seth. Take care.
The beard suits you. Keep it. Hopefully no surgery needed.
Hi Seth, yes, in fact, the sun is one of the main factors (and also genetic) and that can also be seen in surfers, for example. I have had surgery twice (on both eyes) and to be honest it is not pleasant as it is painful the first week and it is disabling having to use only one eye. But after 15-20 you'll be done! Try doing it in winter, when you'll be home more and won't have the FOMO to be outside enjoying yourself. :) Take care!
Thank you so much for this insight.
I also have vision problems due to super dry eyes. For some reason, it’s so hard to get the right prescription with dry eyes.
I usually do not disagree, but the sled is an excellent implement for sprinters… Usain Bolt used them and in particular more of a “drag bag” behind him for resistance training that’s around 10% of your weight so you’re not changing run mechanics much… the sprint mechanics of a front push sled are coming out of the blocks low… so not just for mountain runners- from the speed guy in DGR… you’re welcome brother!
QD: My goal this year is to relief my plantar facitis as it has been dragged over half year already since last year Sept, quite frustrating :(
Hope you get well soon Seth :)
So sorry Dominic, I battled this as well but made it through, and so will you! Keep me posted on your progress.
@@SethJamesDeMoorWill keep you posted about my progress, hope it cures soon😊 Take care Seth💪🏽
Seth: 'Do you ever wake up and something hurts and you think why does that hurt?' Oh yes my achy breaky heart ❤
My mother had one of those (on the water often as a kid), had a good surgeon and hasn't had any issues since! May Christ keep you and your family!
Thank you for this message, thank you. So glad your mother was okay.
So, not a running injury but a failure to protect your eyes. One of the very first things one learns when spending any time at elevation is to protect your eyes with cat 4 glasses. Sorry, you are going through this.
What brand are those!?
Dynafit Speed Goggles 🥽
🍀
2024 goal: Got the knee scoped in February hopefully will be climbing 14’ers in august!
I've had the same thing in my eye for three years. I've never worn sunglasses I've heard sunglasses are bad for you because they prevent your body from absorbing sunlight.
Bruh...
Look like a ghostbuster 😂😂😂
who you gonna call!?!
@@SethJamesDeMoor
😅👌🏼✌🏼👍🏻
wish you a speedy recovery !!!
Nice hat and goggles Seth, no matter what gear you wear you always pull it off.❤ Take care of that Pterygium. It's pronounced as "terrible" and silent "P".
Seth yes now 52 and the niggles are all the time. Agree with everything you say dig the beard
Wear glasses with better fit. Might not protect you from dust
You look older than 20 with scruff. Still processing it
Hi Seth. I'm sorry this is happening to you. Keep positive. If you don't mind me saying so, you look a little disheveled
