    The "secret club" of runners smiling at each other is the only reason I keep going sometimes when I'm struggling. Currently working up to a 1h 10k. I'm so grateful for all the members in our club helping me get there

    When I do a long run I have to admit I think of very little other than concentrating on my constantly changing surroundings. I only discovered running last year and find running empties the mind faster than anything else. Its just me and the pavement. I begin my run in the middle of a big busy city and after a while find myself in the countryside....then think to myself....I'm getting good at this!....and its wonderful. Loved your video Flora.

    There are so many things I can relate to here! That feeling of being overwhelmed just before halfway, before you turn around (after which morale goes up!); the sore toes phenomenon, I totally get sore toes on a really long run; the nutrition strategies are excellent, and just your whole outlook is an inspiration! Thank you.

    What a great run, you'll smash your race!! I wish I lived in such a gorgeous place! I'm NO expert, but I've been learning in my own ultra training... I need to eat, every 30-45 minutes, from the beginning, PERIOD. No matter if I'm hungry or not, just ate or not, feel amazing or not. If I don't, I lose energy, slow down, get grumpy, my legs feel heavy, etc... then I eat something and a few minutes later I'm doing much better. I also do even my long runs late in the day, because I hate mornings, and because I'm so slow I know I'll be out all day long on race day, so I might as well get used to it. 😆 I'm so excited about your race, and loving your training videos!

    • @FloraBeverley

    Sitting down foam rolling for the past half an hour while watching your video. It has made the boring foam rolling enjoyable, thanks. Great tips as well. Long runs and podcasts are my fave.
    You ever thought about taking a water filter with you on long runs? I take my katdyn filter and screw it onto my inov8 bottle. Just in case I need to i can dip my bottle into a stream.

    • @FloraBeverley
      @FloraBeverley  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I wouldn't drink the water in bristol even if filtered, but I'd definitely consider it for a longer run or race somewhere more pristine! In Chamonix people were filling up with glacier water and it looked great :)

    Love running around paradise bottom! I'd recommend exploring around abbot's pool some nice trails there too. If you're out that way and out of water there's another café at the top of Ashton Court, where the bike hire/golf course is. Happy trails.

    I'll look up your post on training in the heat.... but noticed you carry a lot of snacks.... as I run Ultras too I only carry Tailwind (its a powder you mix with your water) and you don't need gels with Tailwind..... try it... I started with HM's at first and found it was out of this world for slow released energy..... you only need to carry the powder if its an ultra to cover running out of water at stations

    • @FloraBeverley

    Wow, I loved the scenery. It looks like you have a pretty good trail system out there. You held up pretty well and your pace was also pretty solid. I like your approach to enjoying / getting in the long run. I have a bike trail here (all paved) that is fairly flat and I can tons of miles in either direction but my route tends to be an out and back, unless I want to deal with car traffic / stop lights. There are some other spots that are popular with runners here but since the Jordan River Bike Trail (Salt Lake City) is practically in my back yard, I do that.
    I like to get a nod / wave / or hello from other runners. Most people are fairly sociable on the bike trail. There are some who are definitely heads down or don't want social interaction. I get it, but it's always nice to get a word of encouragement from one another.
    Enjoyed the video and thank you for taking us on your journey.

    The longest ive run, in any training for a marathon, is 24.4miles.
    I have a marathon pb of 2hrs 48min, but the very long training runs, left my body so fatigued, that training at a high level, was difficult later in life.
    Once you past the 20-21mile distance, your body is fatiguing fast, and going near or beyond marathon distance, i find , tires me out too much, even if done at a slow leisurely pace.
    You can get away with such training when your young, say in your late twenties early thirties, but once you age, or turn fifty, similar training, will leave you too tired to train effectively.
