    I think you will need to lose more mass to qualify as it will make it much easier on your joints and you will become a much more efficient runner with 15-20 less lbs

      Qualifying for Boston is tough. I didn't watch the entire video did he happen to sat what his marathon time is at right now?

    • @EverythingIsPhotogenic
      @EverythingIsPhotogenic 4 ปีที่แล้ว +14

      @@robr7200 his competitive time was around 4 hours but I believe he has done better than that in training, he was also at his peak weight for his last race. That said, sub 3 in 90 days is probably not in the cards. I think sub 3:30 on a timed course is a good goal. 3:10 I think is as fast as it gets if he stays healthy and that's probably going to be at 185 lbs and lots of speed work.

    I full heartedly think you could pull this off dude. Your a fricken beast. Just keep in mind not all people who qualify for Boston are allowed to register. In fact last year they turned away over 7000 people who had qualified. Your time to qualify is 3 hrs but if you actually want to lock in your spot you need to come in at least 4-5 mins faster then that. Google Boston marathon qualifying times. There are a bunch of articles about this. You don't want to put all that effort in and qualify only to have the Boston marathon say it's a no go. Just a little tip to keep in mind bro. Anyways pumped to watch your journey. The Ironman pre series was the tits. Very very well done.

    Bro you need at least 3 pairs of running shoes for keep em in rotation, your training and your body will thank you for it .. and pair of Nikes Vapor Flys or a carbon plate shoe of your preference for the big day. Good luck! 🤘

    • @shaggy363
      @shaggy363 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree with Ben. You definitely need at least one other pair of shoes to rotate with. You'll wear your shoes out fast. Also rotating will help the cushion in the shoe bounce back.good luck on the training.

    • @misterunderhill2009

      Agreed. The EVA needs to bounce back, so at least a few pairs.

    I never stretched, just hit the road and shredded the miles. Then I got the bright idea to race a marathon on a Sunday, run another marathon distance on thursday and then a half marathon distance on Sunday. And now here I am sitting here injured with hamstrings that the physical therapist described as “tight as a violin”. As soon as this is healed up (via stretching) I’ll be stretching the right way moving forward. At this point I’m just trying to get fixed up in time to make the ATX full. But I ain’t worried! 😎👍🏻

  • @vergnetp
    @vergnetp 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    According to the Mcmillan calculator you probably need to do the mile in less than 5:20, or 5k in less than 18:28 to even have a shot at sub 3 hour. those shorter distances can thus be used a Good checkpoints.

  • @BadHorsie1
    @BadHorsie1 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    hmmm, dunno if I'd be foam rolling my itb. For prevention, the best advice would be:
    1. analyse your gait, you might need insoles to correct a gait issue
    2. flexibility, do stretches that target the itb
    3. strengthen leg muscles, using a resistance band do "clamshells" and side leg raises to strengthen the hips

  • @jameshuntercox

    • @tjs1189

      I ran my first marathon at about the same time and basically "trained" by running 6 miles a day 5 days a week for two months. (There's better plans out there). I've gotten a lot smarter now (thanks youtube) about training and heartrate based training. I'm training for my next one now.

    Great choice in following Pfitzinger's plan. His book (Advanced Marathoning) changed my whole approach to marathon training. Also, I agree about Feetures - by far the best running sock I've tried (get the max cushion version if you like a soft feel). Balega makes goods socks, too.

  • @tinab3925
    @tinab3925 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Every other runner loves 40-50 degrees F. More than 60 feels too hot when running. For long distances I love winter running and will run in the single digits (just not below 0F). People warm up from the inside out (we are warm blooded). Strength training is important to prevent injuries, but you need to ease up on power lifting. Eating heavy meats is also not great if you want to run long distances. I would switch to eggs and veggie based proteins for training. It's easier to digest and you feel a lot better when running.

    Have a question or several questions. This is the first video of yours I’ve watched. I noticed you mentioned an Iron Man. Not sure what all of your training looks like, but do you also lift weights?
    I recently started training for an Iron Man and am also lifting so that I don’t lose muscle mass and eating enough to maintain/gain weight still.
    If this also applies to you, here are my questions;
    What does your training schedule look like?
    What type of activities do you do other than swimming, cycling, and running?
    Do you have any advice when it comes to calorie intake with the amount of endurance exercise you do?
    Thank you in advance,
    Zachary Floyd

    Been a follower for awhile and love your content. I would just be careful with the training. Being a bigger runner myself with a BQ, I've been injured from ramping up my training to 60 miles a week without a good base. You might feel great running 50-60 miles a week for a few weeks, but keep in mind injury can always strike. Maybe work your mileage up rather than start at a high level. Just a thought.

This cryo is in a room which is different than regular cryo chambers! You will also get a full body red light session to reduce inflammation and fully optimize recovery! It is killer! The whole UT football team uses it and world class athletes! I use it 3-5 times a week. Highly recommend! Let me know and I can get you in there!✊

    WORK WITH A RUN COACH! or at least get an analysis for tips on running technique - you can literally run pain-free! in your stride - cadence is crucial for foot placement which affects the rest of the kinetic chain all the way to your hips, pull up with your lead foot instead of pushing with your rear foot, upright torso, rounding your shoulders forward so they're not pinched back, chin always up. use bands and stability equipment to strengthen your ankles and feet. GOOD LUCK MAN!
