After a hard run, I take off my ball cap and wave it to an imaginary stadium full of people cheering my effort. It sounds weird but its really satisfying since I run solo 95% of the time.
before the end of speedwork or long run, i imagine passing kipchoge and announcers getting so hyped. in reality though in the marathon he covers a mile the same time i cover a km 😂
Thanks for the great advice 👍🏽 The mental component is so important, especially on long runs. 'Run the mile you're in' is one I find really helpful (from one of your other videos), and just having an encouraging, positive inner voice rather than a critical one.
Definitely agree! We put so much pressure on ourselves sometimes and it's really not helpful. Being realistic and managing expectations is often important, but I also don't think we give ourselves enough credit!
As always, great advice at just the right time. I was not looking forward to my long run today, but now I’m ready to get out there. Comparing my running schedule to my work meeting schedule really helped. Thank you!
"It all comes back to No.1" "Volume" ................100% agree! Everything that needs doing can be prioritised by how much it contributes to building or maintaining volume. Great Video!
Thank you so much for this video. It's exactly what I needed to hear. ❤ I'm not training for a marathon, just trying to get back in shape and run again because it's something I love. I really struggle with the being positive part.

great timing, just coming off an unstructured summer with short races and getting ready for a marathon block, back to basics!
Awesome!! Summer is a perfect time for working on shorter distance speed. Yay for getting ready for your next marathon! Which one are you running?

Thanks for these tips. Bed is very comfortable at 5:00 in winter
Gosh it sure is...definitely gotta be holding tight to that "why" on those days!!
Is there a percentage you should cut back on your mileage during the “cut back” week?
I typically do around 20-25% for my athletes, but sometimes more is necessary. Especially if they are touching higher volumes for the first time.
All excellent tips. Thanks!
So glad you found it helpful!
