Hey Jason I’m really glad you did end up sharing this with us. I’m new to running I started a year ago and I was pushing myself way to hard just running everyday doing long runs all the time and speed work and weight Lifting. I wasn’t giving my body any rest or recovery so I tweaked my lower back and hip. It’s been 6 weeks now. A week ago I ran a mile and it didn’t hurt while running but after I ran I can tell I set back my recovery a couple weeks because I was in pain and sore after that. Before I went for that run I felt like I was 90 percent healed and now it’s a week later and I feel like if I didn’t run last week for that mile I would of been healed by now. It is depressing because this is my first injury ever so before I was asking myself will I ever be ok to start running again. But now I see you’ve been injured several several months and finally you feel normal again. Now I know I must listen to my body more and be smarter on my runs. Glad you are back at it!! Hopefully I will be back in a week or 2👍🏻👍🏻
Great video, man! Glad you're back to feeling more like yourself. The climb from where you're at will be just as exciting as when you were younger. You helped inspire me and helped get me back into running with some of your earlier videos. I've been pushing to get back to/better than I was in HS. I'm 31, almost 32... And took about 12 years off from running after HS. Just ran a 17:58 5k and I feel like a better runner than I ever was at a younger age. Hoping to break 17 by the end of the year which is something I never did in HS.
Love this content. I really enjoyed watching. It's good motivation for me to keep making my weekly videos. Keep them coming, I'm looking forward to the next one!!!
Glad to hear you are feeling better, i can somewhat understand the frustration and pain. I have a question thou as i am currently going through an injury. How do i maintain my cardiovascular fitness for running considering that i cant run and i have to rest and recover? Do you recommend elliptical or bike? or just rest period.
Hi jason, I am attempting to max out the USMC PFT within the next 3 months and it requires me to run 3 miles in 18 minutes. I am 21 years old and I do not do regular running but workout a lot and enjoy cycling and playing rugby. Today I ran 3 miles in 24:59 ( my first time running since november). I am planning on making a structured running plan by using your videos. Do you think this is acheievable or should I reconsider?
Awesome! I think it's definitely possible. That being said, I think there are some factors that need to be considered: what's the fastest 3 mile you have ever run? How much availability do you have to train each week? How many years of running experience do you have? One of the biggest things will be consistency. You'll need to train 5-6 days a week and focus on building up your aerobic base. Add some strength training in there too because that'll help.
I'm excited to be back!! What kinds of videos should I do next??
