hearing the discussion about running at night makes me so grateful I live in Tokyo where its so safe no one gives running after midnight a second thought!
I'm amazed that the organisers of a marathon would allow such a young child to run, 14+ seems reasonable if you can prove the child is capable. As for running at night it should be safe for anyone, unfortunately the reality is it's not.
It is surprising he was allowed to enter the race at all. The organisers have also received a heavy amount of back lash but have stated that they thought the family would run the distance regardless and wanted to ensure the boy had water and medical attention on hand. Very true, the reality of running at night is sadly far less glamorous than the advert depicted.
@@runningchannel Rainier hiked the Appalachian Trail (~2200 miles) with his family a when he was 3 or 4, although he was carried most of the way. His 5 school aged siblings were were along for the trip. About half way through, they took a few days off to the trail to run a marathon... that's just their lifestyle. They regularly catch flack for their family activities, but if the saying 'the family that plays together stays together' it true, then they're not doing so bad. I suspect Rainier has been running since he learned to walk.
The child was forced to WALK he did NOT run the marathon. He cried most of the way, according to runners who passed the family. The father is a well -known TH-camr who makes a living off exploiting his family.
Have to say Sarah's general knowledge makes for good viewing lol. The "1976 marathon man" answer - "Dicaprio" - had me cracking up. He would've been 2 lol.
Shame you aren't doing the series of Anna doing the multi day UltraX event. I really enjoyed the last one in the Azores. It helped me get out of the running slump and get my head into a great place to train for my ultras. I watch that series and the Allie Bailey South Downs Way video all the time when I think I cant do it. Love this TRC show! Love the Dread Mill Quations!
I’ll be attempting my first marathon in August at 50 years old. It’s hard to believe that the race organizers would let a 6 year old run a marathon, maybe they thought it would be good publicity.
I am lucky, i live in a rural area and really enjoy night running, i run in semi urban areas too at night but as much as it pains me to say, i dont think i would run alone at night in a city, as for a six year old running or at least covering 26 miles, well he could not really give free consent, to me it is co ercive and abusive , imo. Did enjoy this and do hope you continue to recover Rick,
Maybe Sarah should have not be reading the questions aloud, but have Rick do all of the reading during the Treadmill Challenge. Just answering questions alone takes up more energy and oxygen.
I note that the question was the 1976 movie "Marathon Men" when it was "Marathon Man". I had a dentist who had that as his favourite movie. Fortunately he never asked me if it was safe...
At sea level-train in the heat. Studies show the effects of training in the heat is comparable to altitude. This means, though, setting your hydration and nutrition ahead and monitoring your heart rate. This is why Joshua Cheptogai (sp.?) has an advantage: trains in altitude with heat.
Gutted Anna isn't doing a Running Channel documentary for her epic adventure. Not everyone uses Instagram. Anyway Anna, have fun, stay safe and enjoy the event.
@@Rasv- I mean stay safe as in don't get injured, hurt or unwell during her challenge. Explain what you mean Anna does not look fit for a runner channel?
@@debkelly6318 gained about 15-kgs in a very short time, she'll be dealing with runner's knee in no time. I've been there. Have you seen recent vids of her?
Yeah, we had a lot of talk about that kid at the Pig this year. It was a warm day for that time of year and several people I run with had problems that day. Its sad this is the type of publicity the Pig gets, its such a fun course.
Not sure that parents allowing anyone close to that age to run a marathon should be lauded. It should be condemned, it is to the kid's long term detriment. Adults are essentially selfish.
So - if I get sore achilles after a 1km walk (when I've previously been running 10km regularly without problems), is that a sign that the shoes might be knackered? My shoes have only 4mm drop, and I'm wondering if the foam is compressed, giving me negative drop.
The organisation and manpower needed to run big events like the Vitality 10,000 is enormous There were comfortably over 13,000 runners congregating around Buckingham Palace before the kick-off, and they all had needs of some sort. Not least WCs and a safe place to stash their belongings. Whatever, I coughed up the £37 and had a fabulous day. I was lucky, I had a good friend in Chelsea who could put me up on the previous night. Heaven knows what a hotel would have cost me?
The people complaining about the 'night run' advert will be the same people that accuse authorities of victim blaming if they advise women to think carefully about where and when they run.
They are promoting unrealistic and unachievable body standards. This is dangerous for our children. I'd rather see marathoners weighing a more realistic weight of say 220 lbs, and running reasonable times of 9 to 10 minutes a mile. This channel is is disgusting.
How old were you when you ran your first marathon?? 🤔
39...and it was a long time ago
44! When i was young, 800m was a long run:)
I will be 17 when I run my first in August.
45, and I'm 43 now!
28, and yesterday!!!

My God Freddy is a machine. The entire time he looked cool as a cucumber.
Sarah for regular. Like for yes !👊
Haven't ran a marathon yet, But I'll be 59 when I run my first one. Another good and enjoyable video. Thank you 🏃♂🏃♂👍👍
Good luck Jimmy! Let us know how you get on 😃

OMG. Anna, running that distance is unfathomable to me🤯best of luck to you on your epic challenge/adventure💪 you are amazing

I have learned over time that insoles are priceless. Peace 🕊️ Blesssings to everyone involved with the podcast!
I come back from work and love running at 3am! No one about. Its all mine the paths and roads are mine! 🤪

16:14 also heavier runners, or faster runners, put more force on the shoes so theirs may wear out faster.
Heat training can be extremely useful for adapting ahead of time for running at altitude!

Thanks for the informative content guys. Keep it up!! Love the channel.
I really like your black&red Run shirts, looks pretty modern
Thanks Dane! They're available on our website to buy if you want one of your own 😄

Hopefully, you get to see it at women's running mag somewhere, Anna is writing a piece for them!
Anna looks not fit for a runner channel. Also whatcha mean stay safe ?

Loving the show but is there any chance you could also do paces in minutes per mile for those of us that think in those terms?
Nobody cares about Americans so no
I got a video suggestion - asking people who ran for years about how to make running for life rather than a phase.
Welcome to Croatia 🇭🇷 😀
What a beautiful country 😍
Yeah, we had a lot of talk about that kid at the Pig this year. It was a warm day for that time of year and several people I run with had problems that day. Its sad this is the type of publicity the Pig gets, its such a fun course.
I would love to know what Sarah's general knowledge treadmill challenge record is? Lol love her enthusiasm and energy!
Well done Freddie!
Who is doing the thumbnails??? Y’all are doing the presenters dirty 🤣😭
I ran a marathon in the womb...it never hurt me!!

Hey guys, I’m trying to download the 5k plan but every time I put my email it just resets. Nothing happens
Did the video actually answer the question in the title header ?
Is Sarah planning on increasing her general knowledge? ^^ hilarious
Hi Rick! How is your knee! Love this
I'm shocked people pay £37 for a 10k race! I can still remember paying £3.50 for races in the early 90's!
Just wait 'til you found out how much houses go for now..

That’s my puppy, Ralph! He’s always doing that 🙄 too quick for me
Those Nike shoes gave me severe peroneal Tendonitis and have no support in the ankle. Awful shoe!
Oh no, sorry to hear that! Which shoes would you recommend?
Eye-lish 😬
Superfeet insoles don't go high enough for my insanely high arches :(
6 year-old? The epiphyseal plates haven't merged into the main bones.
Absolute idiocy.
But low weight
