the girl is a naturally gifted athlete and endurance work is built in genetically but obviously training helps, the fact she can do this so effortlessly means she is a one in a million.
@Jason I just never take my phone on a run, but only my sport watch. You should really invest in some kind of phone holder belt thing , it would probably also help your running.
Nobody: Me: I reckon I could run 50km...? And I know you guys are all way too smart to take this video literally. Obviously this isn't a recommendation to go out and push your body to do what it's not ready for: going slow and listening to your body is what I've recommended in over 200 videos. This is about rethinking which limits are real and which we've made up ♥️
Me: *dies after 5minutes on the treadmill like a graceless whale* Natacha: Ok I'm gonna run 50k while also entertaining people with a beaming smile lol
So I know this is no where near how much she ran, but I ran 6 miles a day after I watched this video. Idk why and idk how. My original plan was supposed to try to get two miles, after I passed that I decided to try 3, and I just kept going from there. I haven’t run in months, and the last time I ran I was struggling to finish 1 mile. I guess her message at the beginning really struck me, that you can do anything you put your mind to. Now, I’ve heard that a lot, but seeing it happen to her and then experiencing it for myself a day later was magical. I hate saying things are magical but I mean idk how else to describe it. Just a big thank you a much love to Natacha for inspiring me to try my hardest. ❤️
As an ultramarathoner I would never advice anyone to run 50K without training, but total #respect to you for doing it. BTW I envy the kind of route support you had. :)

i can absolutley see why your boyfriend is with you. who wouldnt wanna be with a strong, determind and SUPER positive woman. like you dont complain, you are beautifull and your energy/vibe is just so good.
Most people who do Ultramarathon: Super specific training for at least 6 month, equipment worth 1-2k, couple of friends doing crew work Natacha: Doesn't train, just holds phone in her hand the whole time, mario eats one of her sandwiches :-D
For people who are not experienced runners have in mind that running long distances without training might lead to injuries. Make sure you start with little from the beginning and slowly increase with time. Dont jump into long/fast distances straight from day one.
Exactly. I started trying to run two years ago with little to no knowledge and every time I tried to run I got so frustrated that I kept ending up with injuries. Last year was a huge setback but I just hope that this year I’ll be able to attain more knowledge and actually make some progress along the way
Same!!! That was an excellent time for a 50k. I would LOVE a video about the after effects, because I was under trained for my first ultra and my gait was messed up for a while after.
you are seriously incredible! my husband is an ultra runner and the amount of perseverance and mental strength it takes is insane. I've never met you but I'm proud of you!
I’ve always been bad at running. I loved sports and fitness all my life, but I hated running and I was pathetic at it. I’ve been trying to overcome it. Recently I’ve been running 1 mile, and I tell myself at the end of it to just go a little further, just to say I didn’t stop at exactly a mile. I’ve never been able to, I’m dead after one mile. I saw this video, and I shit you not I went and ran a 5k. I didn’t stop at all and I didn’t even slow down. No gun pointed at me or anything. *Thank you* Natacha
Me too! I have been in and out of the national team in my sport multiple times before my injury and in my prime I could kick ass for hours, cycle at top speeds and swim at a nice pace for my conditioning work, but I’ve always hated running. Never could do more then 3 Kilometers even being as fit as I was! It’s nice that you’re trying to overcome that. Don’t beat yourself up to much if it doesn’t happen though, as someone in medicine and orthopaedics especially, I can tell you confidently that we humans are not runners, our bone structure is way to awkward for that. We are incredibly resilient walkers and would hunt down big mammals by tiring them out for hours or even days. So yeah, running is a nice skill to have, but it’s not really necessary or as good for you as people say. A lot of stress on the joints.
I know its no where near what natacha just did. But after a real bad breakup I signed up for a 10km fun run. Zero experience in running and zero training and i smashed it. Was so proud of myself! Now training for a half maraton!
Honestly, this feat wasn't about endurance training. I enjoy running and have done been a lifelong runner and athlete; having run multiple marathons. For her to run an ultra without training specifically for it tells me she was able to do it out of sheer force of will. Pretty darn impressive.
When I started running, I signed up for a half-marathon that was 3 months after I started. I didn't "train" for it, and I think the furthest I ran prior to the race was 13km. I ran the entire race (no walking/breaks) and ended up finishing it in under 2 hours and from that point on, I knew I could do anything I put my mind to.
So as a lifelong runner, who has consumed a LARGE amount of electrolytic drinks, I made your maple syrup, lime and salt drink...it was REALLY good! Thanks Natacha!
I don’t usually comment, but on this occasion I had to! YOU ARE ACTUALLY INCREDIBLE! I have run some of the route you ran when I was training for my half marathon. LET ME TELL YOU... those hills as you were running up towards Enfield town are NO JOKE! Lol you completely smashed this! You are such an amazing example of how powerful our words and mind can be! When we believe in ourselves we can achieve what we believed was unachievable! Love your content! X
omg you know the roads I'm so glad you do Keishia they never look like much on camera 😂 I hope your half marathon went well 💪💪💪thank you so much for watching!! All my love xxx
I think you should talk a little bit more about injury in these types of videos. It is truly amazing how you complete all your challenges through just determination but this can also be a risk for people who are not athletes. As i am sure you are aware of. Taking on too much to fast because you are determined can cause injury if you do not have a strong enough body to support that kind of stress on the muscles and sceletal structure. You have such an amazing view on fitness and preventing injury is a very important part for any beginner. I am sure you know all this already but it would not hurt to talk a little bit about it. You are truly amazing and so inspiring, thank you for all the great content❤️
ur amazing.... The global average time for a marathon stands at around 4 hours 21 minutes - with men's average times at 4 hours 13 minutes, and women at 4 hours 42 minutes.
This is like the equivalent of one of those people in uni/school who say they didn't study and then get one-hundo % on their exam. Good on you Natacha this was amazing!! x
My graphic design teacher ran 40 miles for his 40th birthday with a 5 gallon bucket of water on his back for a fundraiser to build a well in a town in Mexico.
Natacha Océane ironically, I’m totally immobile right now, I fell last Friday and have damaged my coccyx. I’m really missing my gym but I need to heal (doc can’t even tell me if I’ve fractured or not as they don’t do any treatment on broken or bruised coccyx) . But ordinarily I love my hours at the gym.
Running is probably the best way to torture me. Make me run and then make up a bed at the end of it 😂 and I'd probably confess to crimes committed before I was born
THANK YOU!! I usually run for around 10 km (really slow though), but I wanted to challenge myself after watching this inspiring video, so without any other preparation, I signed up for the virtual Stockholm Marathon - and completed it (42,2 km)! It is really possible to do whatever you set your mind to.
Honestly, there should be more people like Natacha. She’s inspired me to do so much and I’ve only been watching her for around 2 weeks. I’m so happy I’ve found her channel and that it’s helped me create a healthier lifestyle. Thank you, Natacha
As someone who has run multiple ultras, and a 50-miler, my first reaction to your title was "What a doofus!"! Lol! I love your content and I love your heart! Way to go, girl! That is NOT an easy task!
I did something similar, I was an experienced endurance athlete, then took several year off where i didn't go on any runs outside, then signed up for a 50K. My finishing time was almost identical. As long as you keep up the cardiovascular conditioning at the gym or by other means, the body remembers, the only struggle is managing the leg pain. Good on ya for doing this and sharing!
Wow I can’t believe you’re able to casually go out one day, with barely any training and run an ultra! A true testament not only your overall fitness level but true grit you have. Amazing -inspirational even. Well done
At the end of my marathon I remember thinking I was doing a sprint finish. My boyfriend laughed when I said "sprint" but relative to how sore I was it felt like I was flying XD
Being a marathon runner I have never laughed out loud so much at someone’s running pain. This video was brilliant 😂I felt every bit of the emotion you went though. Love all your videos btw 💕😃👍🏻
This inspired me so much, the day after I watched this instead of walking the mile to my work, I jogged it all. To put that into perspective, I haven't attempted that since 9 years ago in high school, and my best time in high school was about 14 or 15 minutes. I never could jog it from start to finish. I finished the mile in 11 minutes and managed to jog it the whole way. Coming from me, you can do it!
This video has honestly inspired me so much. I've been stuck in quarantine and have had zero motivation to do much of anything. Your positivity is truly inspiring
Can you do a recap on how you felt the day after and what kinds of things you are doing for recovery? My brother just ran a half marathon and his toes blistered so bad his toe nail came off
wow that's pretty serious. I think finding good shoes is really important to avoid that from happening, I'd already run the marathon 2 years in those shoes so I knew they'd be pretty good during this run also. Once the nail is off there's not much to do apart from letting it grow back and obviously keeping it clean to avoid infections. Definitely check out the NHS webpage or see a doctor if they're severe and need to be treated but often they just heal on their own (: well done to your brother!! All my love xxx
this was SO fun to watch!! i literally lost it when mario pointed out how your feet weren't leaving the ground. but seriously girl. you did great!! you always inspire me to get up and achieve my goals no matter how far away they may seem. you're incredible. congrats on finishing the ultramarathon! was cheering for you the whole time haha. thank you for being who you are and doing what you do. best of luck with time travel (lmao) sending you love 💕
fitness level and sweat glands. Women have less sweat glands. I'm a male and a bit overweight, i run about 5-6kms and get drenched in sweat like i had a swim.
@@georgiam.3957 wrong, men have more sweat glands and thats not genetics. Women have less sweat glands. I researched this about 2 days ago. Have a look online. Sweat is also consistent with body weight and fitness, heavier you are the more your body will heat up and exert sweat to cool you down.
@@pisstroopa3320 well I'm a fit person cause i train Muay Thai but i still do sweat like crazy ,yes we do have less sweat glands but it's also depending on genetics ,i study anatomy and i can assure you that
I really needed this today. This morning, I was really doubting myself and my goals, and this came at the right time to remind me that we really are capable of more than we think. It was really motivating to see you keep going despite the hurdles. Hope your legs are better!
thank you so much sweetie, I'm really glad you felt this way after finishing watching the video (: never forget how capable you really are ❤️❤️❤️❤️ all my love xxxx
When I was 20, I decided to run an ultramarathon in slovakia mountains without almost non preparation. It was 55km/3800m. My parents didn't believe me that I can do it, but I done it. The feeling in the finish was absolutely worth the suffering. But now I would recommend to everybody rather to well prepare to race like this than risk an injury. But also huge respect to you Natacha! The time is really good and hope you didn't suffer so much the next day after the run! :D
I'm a track runner and I'm on the ground in AGONY after a fast mile! The most impressive part of this to me was that she was still standing after she finished????
Howww the heck did she run for 5 hours?? I can’t even run 2 miles on the treadmill without getting bored out of my mind I can’t even IMAGINE 31 miles. You’re amazing girl, absolutely stunning
You get into a certain flow. The feeling of achieving your goal drives you to go further. I can tell you that after I experienced that during multiple 10h+ cycling endurance challenges.
@@felipebaby7732 Yeah, I agree it's so boring on the treadmill! However, I haven't run 4.5 hours outside before, hats off to you! (I think my max is currently 1:37 but I had water breaks (paused watch for them) due to the heat.)
You are INSANE. I wish I had strength trained when I did my marathon in 2016. I just ran. My knees were injured for so long but I think your strength training helped you be able to endure this. And your CAN DO attitude!!! Congrats girl!!
I agree, I think the strength training and weight baring really helped during the event - I don't think I'd have been able to do it without that training tbh. I hope your knees are all better now 😍😘all my lovee Ellie!! xxx
this is sooo inspiring. you're obviously insanely fit but it's your mindset and determination that truly brings all these aims into fruition, amazing! i admire that and i try and be as determined as well
I’ve been trying to take my exercise more seriously just to help me with sports. I started seriously working out from home during the quarantine but always quit and got in my head. After watching her run it’s really inspiring me to get back into it. Idk what it is but her personality and energy and mindset has really inspired me to focus.
Natacha: *in actual physical pain from running 50 km, kinda feeling alright, not too tired Me, in bed eating a bag of crisps: *in imaginary physical pain and already exhausted
Tomorrow I'll try running 20km, my maximum is 10km btw, I'll edit this comment afterwards to say how it went Okay, yesterday I didn't do it because I watched the promised Neverland in one night and then I spent the day eating, but today I woke up early and went for it; the first 10km were surprisingly great but it got harder after that, at 13km I started to get tired but I was determined to to it. The thing is that I ran 10km for the first time a week ago and if I ran 20km I could injure myself, so I did 15km with out really stopping in about 1h40min (I know I'm not fast). Sometimes knowing when to stop is a victory. I feel great now. I got a notification about this comment months later and now I've seen the likes and comments, thank you so much
You ran for almost 6 hours and you still looked fresher than me after a 10 minute incline walk. I make jokes, but I'm actually crying inside.
I relate 😭😂
I feel you! Watching this gives me anxiety! 🙈 Mad props to her. I’m inspired. Not gonna lie.
Seriously though!!!! Same hahaha

Agreed. I've run several trail ultras up to 100k but you couldn't pay me enough money to run even a marathon on a compact surface.
The 53k is way more accurate than the map. That’s you crossing streets and making small detours. You did 53k!!!

And then theirs me, a lineman in football. Struggling after 90 yards (.05 mile)
Good technique good breathing goes long away
For people who are not experienced runners have in mind that running long distances without training might lead to injuries. Make sure you start with little from the beginning and slowly increase with time. Dont jump into long/fast distances straight from day one.
Exactly. I started trying to run two years ago with little to no knowledge and every time I tried to run I got so frustrated that I kept ending up with injuries. Last year was a huge setback but I just hope that this year I’ll be able to attain more knowledge and actually make some progress along the way
When Natacha started looking at houses toward the end, I think that was a power walk. 😂
hahah I mean even that's generous, I'd call it a shuffle 😂
Natacha Océane It’s still incredible and after any of your videos I always wanna go out and try something new!
"I'm in a lot of pain" "Let's keep going" I honestly love your determination so much!
"did you eat one of my sandwiches?" idk why but it's so funny HAHAHA despite the fatigue of running she still manages to sound so cute HOW
LOL She knows 1M people are watching her, so she wants to put a good impression. Plus, it is in her nature, to be good humored and funny.
Mario - "tbh this is a bit fast... I'm going back to the car" 😂😂😂
As an ultra runner, I don’t think I have ever clicked on anything faster 😂
haha thank you Sydney!! I have so much respect for you 🙌🙌🙌
Same!!! That was an excellent time for a 50k. I would LOVE a video about the after effects, because I was under trained for my first ultra and my gait was messed up for a while after.
“My lungs felt fine”
Me doing 20 minutes of cardio: Breathless corpse
Same girl same
I’m having an asthma attack reading the title
you are seriously incredible! my husband is an ultra runner and the amount of perseverance and mental strength it takes is insane. I've never met you but I'm proud of you!
I’ve always been bad at running. I loved sports and fitness all my life, but I hated running and I was pathetic at it.
I’ve been trying to overcome it. Recently I’ve been running 1 mile, and I tell myself at the end of it to just go a little further, just to say I didn’t stop at exactly a mile. I’ve never been able to, I’m dead after one mile.
I saw this video, and I shit you not I went and ran a 5k. I didn’t stop at all and I didn’t even slow down. No gun pointed at me or anything. *Thank you* Natacha
Me too! I have been in and out of the national team in my sport multiple times before my injury and in my prime I could kick ass for hours, cycle at top speeds and swim at a nice pace for my conditioning work, but I’ve always hated running. Never could do more then 3 Kilometers even being as fit as I was! It’s nice that you’re trying to overcome that. Don’t beat yourself up to much if it doesn’t happen though, as someone in medicine and orthopaedics especially, I can tell you confidently that we humans are not runners, our bone structure is way to awkward for that. We are incredibly resilient walkers and would hunt down big mammals by tiring them out for hours or even days. So yeah, running is a nice skill to have, but it’s not really necessary or as good for you as people say. A lot of stress on the joints.
Same, I ran a 10k after this
I honestly can't believe you're so comfortably talking into the camera after having run 17 KILOMETERS I WOULD BE DYING
I know its no where near what natacha just did. But after a real bad breakup I signed up for a 10km fun run. Zero experience in running and zero training and i smashed it. Was so proud of myself! Now training for a half maraton!
Ashlea Parry congrats! You right, you can be proud!
“I want to show how powerful it can be when you believe you can actually do something.” 💯✊🏾🙌🏾🔥 Realest words EVER spoken sis.
"we've all done a 10k before"
Me: yeah..... Definitely..... 100%.....
My thoughts exactly 🤣🤣🤣🤣
came here for this comment
Same :D
YOU SHOULD DO TIPS ON BUILDING ENDURANCE FOR CHALLENGES LIKE THIS.
ALSO AN ABSOLUTE BEAST, MY QUEEN.
Omg yesss would love to see that!!
Honestly, this feat wasn't about endurance training. I enjoy running and have done been a lifelong runner and athlete; having run multiple marathons. For her to run an ultra without training specifically for it tells me she was able to do it out of sheer force of will. Pretty darn impressive.
lecruset lecruset well yeah, but she was an endurance athlete. I just want her tips and tricks for when she did her iron man.
Yesss
To build running endurance, you have to run for long periods that you aren’t used to. The more you run the better your endurance will be
“I haven’t come this far to redo it.”
YESS I NEEDA LIVE BY THIS SO INSPIRING
When I started running, I signed up for a half-marathon that was 3 months after I started. I didn't "train" for it, and I think the furthest I ran prior to the race was 13km. I ran the entire race (no walking/breaks) and ended up finishing it in under 2 hours and from that point on, I knew I could do anything I put my mind to.
Can I just say that this really proves the “you can do anything you set your mind to “ theory? Go off natacha!
always the power of the mind!! 😍😍😍
No, it doesn't. Natacha's extremely fit - if you or I tried this, we'd get injured.
@@andrewroberts8139 for real if i did this at my fitness my body would break down
So as a lifelong runner, who has consumed a LARGE amount of electrolytic drinks, I made your maple syrup, lime and salt drink...it was REALLY good! Thanks Natacha!
more about this, what proportions?!
Recipe???
@@alexapalladino1333 I just wagged it. I think I went with a half and half ratio between the maple syrup and the lime juice
you inspired me for lots of things. you are an incredible human being.
ahh that's amazing to hear Klaudia!! I'm so proud of you! All my love always xxxx
@@natachaoceane and we are proud of you! you are the sweetest! and well done!
@@natachaoceane You literally helped me sooo much with my 2 eating disorders. Keep making videos, you are amazing!
Right!! Me too!!
I don’t usually comment, but on this occasion I had to!
YOU ARE ACTUALLY INCREDIBLE!
I have run some of the route you ran when I was training for my half marathon. LET ME TELL YOU... those hills as you were running up towards Enfield town are NO JOKE! Lol you completely smashed this! You are such an amazing example of how powerful our words and mind can be! When we believe in ourselves we can achieve what we believed was unachievable!
Love your content! X
omg you know the roads I'm so glad you do Keishia they never look like much on camera 😂 I hope your half marathon went well 💪💪💪thank you so much for watching!! All my love xxx
I think you should talk a little bit more about injury in these types of videos. It is truly amazing how you complete all your challenges through just determination but this can also be a risk for people who are not athletes. As i am sure you are aware of. Taking on too much to fast because you are determined can cause injury if you do not have a strong enough body to support that kind of stress on the muscles and sceletal structure. You have such an amazing view on fitness and preventing injury is a very important part for any beginner. I am sure you know all this already but it would not hurt to talk a little bit about it.
You are truly amazing and so inspiring, thank you for all the great content❤️
Jogging is the worst. Your face doesn't even look sweaty afterwards. Respect.
Does 30k: "this is the first time I'm walking"
Yeah fkn mad
ur amazing....
The global average time for a marathon stands at around 4 hours 21 minutes - with men's average times at 4 hours 13 minutes, and women at 4 hours 42 minutes.
This is like the equivalent of one of those people in uni/school who say they didn't study and then get one-hundo % on their exam. Good on you Natacha this was amazing!! x
She must have both an incredible amount of mental strength and pain tolerance.
My graphic design teacher ran 40 miles for his 40th birthday with a 5 gallon bucket of water on his back for a fundraiser to build a well in a town in Mexico.
What was the aftermath physically? Knees, blisters etc. You're a huge motivation btw!! Truly inspiring :)
I wish I was this dedicated to running. I love the gym workouts, hate running alone.
you're good Julie ❤️ I think the most important thing is movement in any shape or form (: xxxx
Natacha Océane ironically, I’m totally immobile right now, I fell last Friday and have damaged my coccyx. I’m really missing my gym but I need to heal (doc can’t even tell me if I’ve fractured or not as they don’t do any treatment on broken or bruised coccyx) . But ordinarily I love my hours at the gym.
I love the chemistry between these two. It is clear that they are quite fond of each other. Lovely.
Running is probably the best way to torture me. Make me run and then make up a bed at the end of it 😂 and I'd probably confess to crimes committed before I was born
this comment is amazing 😂 especially the bed making part!! now I know your weakness if you ever commit a crime 😂😂😂
Haha same 😂 i love pretty much every sport inkluding hiking.. but running.. big no
@@jessy9369 same! I'll do anything my knees will allow, but running is straight from the bowels of the underworld lol
“Honestly the marathon was fine”
Okay Natacha, okay 😂
THANK YOU!! I usually run for around 10 km (really slow though), but I wanted to challenge myself after watching this inspiring video, so without any other preparation, I signed up for the virtual Stockholm Marathon - and completed it (42,2 km)! It is really possible to do whatever you set your mind to.
Honestly, there should be more people like Natacha. She’s inspired me to do so much and I’ve only been watching her for around 2 weeks. I’m so happy I’ve found her channel and that it’s helped me create a healthier lifestyle.
Thank you, Natacha
As someone who has run multiple ultras, and a 50-miler, my first reaction to your title was "What a doofus!"! Lol! I love your content and I love your heart! Way to go, girl! That is NOT an easy task!
I did something similar, I was an experienced endurance athlete, then took several year off where i didn't go on any runs outside, then signed up for a 50K. My finishing time was almost identical. As long as you keep up the cardiovascular conditioning at the gym or by other means, the body remembers, the only struggle is managing the leg pain. Good on ya for doing this and sharing!
Wow I can’t believe you’re able to casually go out one day, with barely any training and run an ultra! A true testament not only your overall fitness level but true grit you have. Amazing -inspirational even. Well done
At the end of my marathon I remember thinking I was doing a sprint finish. My boyfriend laughed when I said "sprint" but relative to how sore I was it felt like I was flying XD
supernaturalnatalie7 this is the funniest yet true comment I’ve ever red😂
Read**
Allie Rose you can Edit your comments just so you know.
Exactly the same on my 1st marathon 😂
“Mario is gonna give me a massage soon, he doesn’t know about it, but he is” 😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
Being a marathon runner I have never laughed out loud so much at someone’s running pain. This video was brilliant 😂I felt every bit of the emotion you went though. Love all your videos btw 💕😃👍🏻
thank you so much Sarah!! Ahh I have so much respect for you 🙌 thank you so much for watching!! All my love sweetie! xxx
This inspired me so much, the day after I watched this instead of walking the mile to my work, I jogged it all. To put that into perspective, I haven't attempted that since 9 years ago in high school, and my best time in high school was about 14 or 15 minutes. I never could jog it from start to finish.
I finished the mile in 11 minutes and managed to jog it the whole way. Coming from me, you can do it!
cool
This video has honestly inspired me so much. I've been stuck in quarantine and have had zero motivation to do much of anything. Your positivity is truly inspiring
Can you do a recap on how you felt the day after and what kinds of things you are doing for recovery? My brother just ran a half marathon and his toes blistered so bad his toe nail came off
wow that's pretty serious. I think finding good shoes is really important to avoid that from happening, I'd already run the marathon 2 years in those shoes so I knew they'd be pretty good during this run also. Once the nail is off there's not much to do apart from letting it grow back and obviously keeping it clean to avoid infections. Definitely check out the NHS webpage or see a doctor if they're severe and need to be treated but often they just heal on their own (: well done to your brother!! All my love xxx
O.O jesus christ
@@Nakigirl79 That is not normal. People run whole marathons without that happening. She need bigger or just different shoes.
this was SO fun to watch!! i literally lost it when mario pointed out how your feet weren't leaving the ground. but seriously girl. you did great!! you always inspire me to get up and achieve my goals no matter how far away they may seem. you're incredible. congrats on finishing the ultramarathon! was cheering for you the whole time haha. thank you for being who you are and doing what you do. best of luck with time travel (lmao) sending you love 💕
Why is she so humble when she is just beast asf
How does it seem like she doesn’t even sweat at all? i could literally have a bath with all my sweat
Well sweat depends on genetics tho
fitness level and sweat glands. Women have less sweat glands. I'm a male and a bit overweight, i run about 5-6kms and get drenched in sweat like i had a swim.
@@pisstroopa3320 well as i said it all comes from genetics and not of your gender , cause I'm a woman and believe me i sweat a lot
@@georgiam.3957 wrong, men have more sweat glands and thats not genetics. Women have less sweat glands. I researched this about 2 days ago. Have a look online. Sweat is also consistent with body weight and fitness, heavier you are the more your body will heat up and exert sweat to cool you down.
@@pisstroopa3320 well I'm a fit person cause i train Muay Thai but i still do sweat like crazy ,yes we do have less sweat glands but it's also depending on genetics ,i study anatomy and i can assure you that
I really needed this today. This morning, I was really doubting myself and my goals, and this came at the right time to remind me that we really are capable of more than we think. It was really motivating to see you keep going despite the hurdles. Hope your legs are better!
thank you so much sweetie, I'm really glad you felt this way after finishing watching the video (: never forget how capable you really are ❤️❤️❤️❤️ all my love xxxx
Same, i felt so inspired after watching this, i needed it❤️
When I was 20, I decided to run an ultramarathon in slovakia mountains without almost non preparation. It was 55km/3800m. My parents didn't believe me that I can do it, but I done it. The feeling in the finish was absolutely worth the suffering. But now I would recommend to everybody rather to well prepare to race like this than risk an injury. But also huge respect to you Natacha! The time is really good and hope you didn't suffer so much the next day after the run! :D
I don’t ever actually laugh at loud at a TH-cam video but “that’s a nice house!” As she hobbled by got me
I'm a track runner and I'm on the ground in AGONY after a fast mile! The most impressive part of this to me was that she was still standing after she finished????
That was genuinely one of the most inspiring things I've ever seen. Hard to even articulate precisely why.
Howww the heck did she run for 5 hours?? I can’t even run 2 miles on the treadmill without getting bored out of my mind I can’t even IMAGINE 31 miles. You’re amazing girl, absolutely stunning
It’s a lot better when you run outside I couldn’t do more than 10 mins on a treadmill but have run nonstop for 4.5 hours outside
She used to be an iron man athlete! She’s insane
You get into a certain flow. The feeling of achieving your goal drives you to go further.
I can tell you that after I experienced that during multiple 10h+ cycling endurance challenges.
@@felipebaby7732 Yeah, I agree it's so boring on the treadmill! However, I haven't run 4.5 hours outside before, hats off to you! (I think my max is currently 1:37 but I had water breaks (paused watch for them) due to the heat.)
You are INSANE. I wish I had strength trained when I did my marathon in 2016. I just ran. My knees were injured for so long but I think your strength training helped you be able to endure this. And your CAN DO attitude!!! Congrats girl!!
I agree, I think the strength training and weight baring really helped during the event - I don't think I'd have been able to do it without that training tbh. I hope your knees are all better now 😍😘all my lovee Ellie!! xxx
this is sooo inspiring. you're obviously insanely fit but it's your mindset and determination that truly brings all these aims into fruition, amazing! i admire that and i try and be as determined as well
Never trained running for 5years, ran a marathon timing of mine while doing a 50k. And I have been training for marathon for 5 years. Fml
Well, now you have a new goal to set for yourself. Beat her time!
Seems like your training isn't ideal.
i can't imagine doing all this and not even getting a t-shirt or a medal to show for it but you're amazing!
I thought the same thing haha!
Just ran an ultra marathon “That’s a nice a house”
The positivity and confidence of this girl is astounding. Major goals.
I love that you did all of the work but I think it’s safe to say that Mario was the star of this video 😂
I agree tbh, I don't think many people would be that supportive of anything, I don't feel deserving 🙏🙏
I’ve been trying to take my exercise more seriously just to help me with sports. I started seriously working out from home during the quarantine but always quit and got in my head. After watching her run it’s really inspiring me to get back into it. Idk what it is but her personality and energy and mindset has really inspired me to focus.
Anyone else wanna see the behind the scenes of Mario trying to get all the running shots? Love your content girl, so inspiring!!
Natacha: *in actual physical pain from running 50 km, kinda feeling alright, not too tired
Me, in bed eating a bag of crisps: *in imaginary physical pain and already exhausted
Tomorrow I'll try running 20km, my maximum is 10km btw, I'll edit this comment afterwards to say how it went
Okay, yesterday I didn't do it because I watched the promised Neverland in one night and then I spent the day eating, but today I woke up early and went for it; the first 10km were surprisingly great but it got harder after that, at 13km I started to get tired but I was determined to to it. The thing is that I ran 10km for the first time a week ago and if I ran 20km I could injure myself, so I did 15km with out really stopping in about 1h40min (I know I'm not fast). Sometimes knowing when to stop is a victory. I feel great now.
I got a notification about this comment months later and now I've seen the likes and comments, thank you so much
1:40 is a great time for 15K! Comparison is the enemy of success. You went out and smashed it. Well done!
Congrats!!
the promised neverland is worth it
Woah! That's so good!
my god i dont think i can possibly love and look up to someone more than to you
you're too kind thank you so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
