Solid, well-organized, and beneficial content for me, at least. I really like the aspiration you shared, and hopefully, I can find a group to help me to become a better runner
Really great video. Sota your form is really good. As a 21min 5km runner i am always worried that my form is the thing holding me back from improving. Did you learn to run with proper form, or did you naturally adjust to the way you now run?
Appreciate it Peter! Believe it or not, I used to have TERRIBLE form (I think I've privated a lot of my old videos just because of how embarrassed I am about the form). Honestly if this is something you want to see a whole video dedicated to, I'm more than happy to make one (regarding how I improved my technique). But in short, I just watched a ton of running and it slowly just improved to be honest. I haven't really done any specific things apart from a lot of core (back in the day) to make sure my torso stays still and it's just my arms moving.
@@SotaMaehara Thanks Sota, if you did a vid on this that would be much appreciated. Your foot strike underneath your hips and everything that goes with that looks perfect, or perfect enough to a guy like me. My form has improved too since taking up running with increased milage but i am a million miles away from the fast turnover the proper runners like you have. You give me hope though that it might keep improving with the speed and endurance adaptations. Thanks again.
me hubiera gusta escuchar tu video de verdad, lo que pasa es que no se ingles🥲🥲, pero con el titulo entiendo que el video se trata de como fue tu transición de 19min a 15 min, y desde hace mucho estaba buscando algo así
As an introvert at heart, I think that's a super fair question to ask! I think just do what your heart wants, if you want to go out and meet people, do it, if not, don't. To this day I still do most of my running solo (alone). I find that once a week is enough social interaction for me. (at this current point in time). But a few months ago in Sydney I would have multiple runs a week with a group. Just do what you want. And as long as you have that intrinsic love for running, you'll do it regardless!
@@fvrrest1910 Really matters on what kind of runner you are. If you use strava, you can tell, but essentially, if you take more steps when you run faster, edge+ is better. If your stride gets longer, then sky+ is better. try it on at a shoe shop if you can and get on a treadmill/film your stride.

Appreciate the feedback! All the best
Very inspirational keep up the videos man!!
Much appreciated! Thanks for watching
Your channel is a gem, I enjoy your chill vibes in your daily running vlogs, looking forward to more technical videos on your training as well!
appreciate it! Always curious to know what type of content people wanna see more of
Very inspirational, its crazy to imagine you once were 19 min 5k runner. Aspiration is key but so hard to aim for realistic goals.
Aspiration is key indeed
really enjoying your videos! Can't believe i only discovered your channel recently. Keep up the great work!
Welcome! And thanks for your kind words :)

Video coming out tomorrow!
Really great content in this vid! You packed a lot in there!
20 mins of content
Diet - Sota's diet consists of eating like 10 minutes before a run, not puking it up afterwards and yoloing it the next day
Facts
Good advice! I have been running for over 55+ years now, longest break being 3 weeks!
That is huge! I love longevity in this sport
@@SotaMaehara Thanks, I've seen a lot of people come and go in running, and there are not too many that have been running as long as I have :)
Very useful advice 🔥
Ty for watching my dude
love the graph !!
The graph speaks a thousand words. Everyone needs to pause at 08:26 and look at the graph properly
Honestly I think that sleep is the best and biggest cheat code for recovery (Admittedly, I don't do it enough)

Very smart guy.

what if we're anti social? how do we run with ppl?

Whats your favorite supershoe?
Currently, it's the Metaspeed Edge+
@@SotaMaehara I was thinking about getting a pair but I don't know whether I should get the edge or the sky+.

nice video made, i watched the full thing, so you moved from australia? so you came here for UNi i assume
Yeah I’ll make a vid on it soon
This is great, thx!!!
No problem! Glad it was somewhat useful ❤️ lemme know if there’s any other topics you want me to cover!
Wow you're so fast
not as fast as you though unfortunately. Niko Oliver is the goat
Dang, truly impressive! Meanwhile here I am still not having done a parkrun in my life 😂
you're not missing out on much imo, the marathons and stuff you do seem more fun
Bro doesn’t ‘have a good kick anymore’ because his whole entire run is a kick
hahaha not sure if I'm kicking the entire run
truee
diet is just cap but rest is goated
lol
🔥🔥🔥
🤝
The McDonald’s diet 😉
I’m lovin’ it
