      For anyone who doesn't know, Kelvin Kiptum and his trainer died in a car accident in Kenya on February 11th. He is the current record holder for the marathon and it seems like he was on track to be the first person to run a sub 2-hour marathon later this year. He was only 24 and leaves behind a wife and 2 children.
      RIP Kiptum

  • @ragamuffin09

    For beginners, I would honestly suggest the couch-to-5K training program. It's a 3 day a week program (free mobile app), that progressively turns from more walking and a little bit of running, to more running and a little bit of walking, to just straight running. It's incremental every week, and is about 8-9 weeks to complete. At this point, I've even been doing couch-to-10K myself (again). I seem to have formed a habit where I kinda take 2-3 months off of running at the end of the year because it gets dark out too quickly (I really only go run after work, so 5-6PM), and then start the training app from the beginning again at the start of the year (I'm currently back on week 4). I've been doing this for about 2-3 years now probably.

      Yeah, I'm American but I'm doing one from the NHS/UK that's available as a podcast. Laura is keeping my time and telling me when to run and when to walk and giving me tips. The music isn't all that great, but I don't have to look at a watch. I'm three weeks in and so far, it's really easy. I'm running in a 5k at the end. Or jogging. Or sauntering forward with faster than walking intentions.

    • @ragamuffin09
      @ragamuffin09 10 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@SatipatthanaSakuraDragona Yup, the couch-to-5K one I've used before also is basically just a timer in my ear telling me when to run or walk, just without the music. I usually have Spotify on for my own music... It definitely gets more challenging as you get farther in though, as easy as it feels at the beginning (as is the point obviously). I've used the couch-to-10K one, and ran a 10K with my sister in law at the end of the year a couple years ago. Felt like a great accomplishment after the training, so good luck with your 5K!

    I started running with a run club that’s sponsored by one of our local breweries here in Northern NY last fall. At 52, I hadn’t run in more than 10 years. I still do the run/walk 5k in about 40 minutes, we run a 5k every Thursday. Out mantra is Earn your Beer. They run year round, so I can relate to this video 100 percent. This winter I’ve ran in near zero temps, in freezing rain, and in lake effect snow through 7 inches of fresh powder. There’s something about going out and doing it when you know most people wouldn’t even walk a mile in those conditions, that makes you feel like you accomplished something special.

    I was told like, NO EXCUSES and so I went running in the dead of winter. Twisted my ankle and I now use a treadmil on cold or hot days. XD You slipping at the beginning was a cruel flashback. lol

    I hate running in winter. I had pledged to run 50 miles in February, but out MO weather has been all over the place (seriously, 70 one day, 3 days later snow, and now almost 80). I failed my pledge miserably... BUT!! I signed up for a half in October. Perfect motivation to start training, next weekend.

    I'm not really a "runner" but I do walk - I stop walking for a few weeks at a time then pick it up again - I'll average about 3.8 MPH and usually go about 3 miles. The key for me when getting back in to it has been start with 3/4 of a mile with no real speed goal. then after a few days do a mile, then a mile and a half, etc until I'm up to enough distance for the time I give myself (about 45 minutes to an hour). As Wheezy says good shoes are a must - stretching is also a must....

    That chocolate sleep thing concers me because chocolate contains caffeine so either uppers and downers get mixed or its not chocolate

    I recommend ski goggles for this activity. Yes you will look a little silly. But everyone probably already thinks that you are a crazy person for running when it is that cold. I started wearing goggles while riding my bike in the winter in Colorado and they made such a difference!

    the comments and jokes in this video where awesome. I love your humor (maybe because it is also my humor) 😀 "what is this, the DEATH STAR???" "5 K, or maybe 5 canine" 😆

    I have been a runner on and off for 15 years. In the last 6 I run all year round and love winter running. It quiet, fewer people out and don't overheat. The key is to dress properly. Here in Canada we measure temperature in Celsius and I dress for ten degrees warmer than the temp outside. So if it says -15C I dress for -5 or if it says 20C I bring more water and dress for 30C.

    "I'm not running very fast, so it's going to take even longer" As a back of the pack finisher, you're preaching to the choir.

    Did anyone else misread the title as "I ranked every day in the dead of winter, here's what happened"? Lol

    Running goggles would be good for you ( or an ice scraper for your eyeballs)

    I live in southern California and I have trouble going out for a walk in the morning because 50 F is too cold. I need to get over myself.

    A month ago, I had a silly idea: I would run 5K every day for 5 days. I did! Then I would try running 6K every day for 6 days. I did! Now I’m trying to run 7K every day for 7 days. I’ve done 3 days now and still feeling optimistic about it. Wish me luck! Please? 😄

    This is the first year ive owned studded running shoes and went walking and running even in -30C.
    Best thing ever, can run even in the most icy grounds and havent fallen once.
