Training for a marathon is like fighting a gorilla. You don't fight until you're tired, you fight until the gorilla is tried. H. Keddell, 2018.

Fantastic video! I experienced exactly the same when training for a 70.3 Ironman, I couldn’t do speed work because my shins would blow up, so I just worked on bumping up my weekly mileage and would sprinkle in some harder runs with hills or sub threshold runs and it directly increased my 10k/half marathon times and it was all “easy long runs”

Thanks mate! It’s amazing how simple it can be once we diagnose what we need to focus on. That’s the key to a good coach in my book. Being able to get to the bottom of what the athlete really needs to improve their performance.

What if you started this video at 1:48

[@runningwithaj]

What are you thinking? Cut the intro altogether and just give the meat or use that phrasing as a bit of a hook?

[@3dstaco]

@@runningwithaj Save the philosophy for those that have already committed to the majority of the video . Starting off with the visual is way more engaging. Also the bad mic setup hurts viewer retention.

Mics not even that bad

[@runningwithaj]

@fallen9535 thank you. I can see the point though. I normally run it through a noise reduction filter before publishing but forgot this time. It just takes that hiss away.

[@giancarlosZ]

This is a great video! Maybe a shorter intro and it’s a TH-cam running classic.

[@runningwithaj]

Thanks so much!

I'm an 18 year old biological female and the past two years there were 3 trans runners who happened to win every track meet can you advise.

[@runningwithaj]

I think that the trans debate and how we move forward to an equitable system is a more nuanced debate than I can understand and comment on. My worry is that no matter how we navigate it, there will be a lot of heartache until we get it right. Other than that, I’m unsure of your question. What advice are you seeking?
