25 LAPS WITH PRO RUNNERS

- Hey y’all!!! If you’re new here I’m Mica Rivera Wood and I’m an aspiring professional runner. I recently graduated college and now I’m still continuing in the sport and seeing how far it takes me, even without a professional contract.
My dream is to represent Peru in international competition, and this race was a step towards that. I took off 16 seconds from my previous personal best in the 10k. I ran 32:41 and was left feeling like there’s more there!
Now I’m getting ready to compete at my FIRST PERUVIAN NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS this Friday and Saturday, where I’ll be doing a dirty double and running the 5k and 10k.

GOOD WORK 🙏🏼
Stomach problems while running are horrible!!! Congrats on the PR!
Fr!! Thank you 🫶🏽
that track looked dope with the inside line tracker and lights
Hello Mica, I wanted to congratulate you on the good result you achieved in the 5,000 m.l of the Ibero-American championship. Even though I was Spanish, I wanted you to win. Your way of running is pure poetry. I know that you will participate in a world championship and in some Olympic games, you are already the best in Peru.
Omg Soo happy for you!
2024 as definitely been you’re year so far, and I hope it continues to be!
Girl, u are so incredible and pretty, I love watching ur videos, I have gotten more into running since I started watching ur channel, thx soooo much!!!
Looking forward to the Peru video 😊.
I was trackside at The Ten at JSerra, and watched you race in a seriously stacked field. You led the chase pack for much of the race. Your paces were consistent and you ran a PB. Well done, Micah. Curious what you thought of the pace lights.
Thank you, glad you were there! I did enjoy seeing them and they definitely helped through 5k, making sure I was a little off the 16:00 pace. Definitely can be stressful watching them the whole time though so I made sure to focus on other things too
@@micawood 👍
What are pace lights?
@@candlestheresa They are a series of LED lights along the inside of lane 1 and are programmed to circle the track at a predetermined pace with the intent of assisting the lead runners to achieve PBs, or meet records, or American records, or World records, etc. World Athletics has been using them since 2020 for elite level competitions.
32 40 and not feeling great. Thats amazing and shows your in great shape.
Yayy I been waiting for you to post🎉
Sucks that you were feeling unwell while running, you and Adam really inspire me with your running content. Good luck in Peru!!
you killed it, congrats on the pb!
Amazing!!!
Congrats on the PR!
Not bad when that great time like that (and a PB) is below 110% of what you can put out there and give. You are in a good spot Micah. Keep it up!
Great race Mica! You beat my pb! (32:47 from 45 yrs ago). I know you’re gonna knock that time down even further. I’m gonna go to The 10 next year, watched it online this year. Good luck at the Peruvian Nationals, hope to see you (and Adam) in the Olympics!
You got ittt Peru would be pleased to have you as a representative athlete 🙌
not the bloating tho
you are amazing!! my idol!!
love Adam's commentary
Yeh 10ks are funny like that. Also watching you race at dark time reminds me how little I miss night races haha.. BUT HEY MAN Congrats on a PB!
Good job!
Solid effort team 🎉
Good job on the PR you did great keep on trying and sorry you felt sick to your stomach but awesome job 👍🏼👍🏼😊😊

You are grinding hard and making progress. You might want to cook at home prerace with some simple foods - grilled chicken / rice etc. That Pizza and Paste out looked great but maybe a little rich.
True!! Will be trying that
PR with more left in the tank. That shows your hard work 💪
I’ve been a fan of Adam for about 8 months now just found your channel dropped a sub
Glad you’re here!
We started outdoor track this wee’ and it’s my first time doing track and it’s been really fun sadly it’s been raining and we had to run the mile and it was muddy and there were puddles but i got a new pb and it’s not like an insanely good time but I’m really proud of myself for working hard, great job, and good vid as always
Adam is never depressed. Trust me.
"Coming from a guy who has never run a 10k . . . " lol. Love the side eye! Good on both y'all, though. Great run! Keep grinding and good luck!
Crushed it. I got a 10k PB at the weekend, 43:36 down from 44:54…. I can only dream of a sub 40 let alone 32 something. You did great, enjoy the ride
Thank you and great job!
nice job mica a pb is a pb keep it up
Congratulations on a PB when you weren't feeling your best. Hope the Peru races went well.
Saludos desde mexico 🏃♂️🏃♂️🏃♂️
Keep going
Mica you are right about ut it is depressing
I see more people with those on cloud spikes now are they the new best distance spikes?
Whats the qualification process in Peru? Placement in the upcoming race or a specific time?
Diet needs to be dialed, recommend eating the same foods you know won’t agitate your stomach a week out.
Great job Mica! And the ON shoes you wore for the race look amazing. What’s the model?
thank you!! they’re the on cloudspikes 10,000m
My idol
I love Adam’s side (nee Coach) comments🤣
Hey whats your diet like as a runner? Do you take any supplements?
How do you know what pack you are running with, before you get started? And what is a pack?
do u ever plan on doing longer distances?
Is liquid iron the only nutrient supplement you take?
bien Cami, haz contenido en español, muchas bendiciones
What place did you end up getting? Btw you did so good!!
Thank you!! I got 7th in my heat, there were a lot of great runners!
I hated doing track, one I always felt like i had to go to the washroom, and it was uncomfy af running fadt
Congrats on the PR!
I've noticed that gluten and diary cause me bloating. It's worth exprerimenting with your diet to better understand your body.
The G.I. tract is quite often a runners worst enemy.
seriously
Yea I always say I’d love to knuckle up with my digestive system
Nice work 👍 Sounds like you have a food allergy though. Something seems to be messing with your digestion. Gluten, soy, even dairy. My wife and I have had similar issues. A low FODMAP diet is usually the key. Look into The Vertical Diet. Great vid as always 👌
Thank you! I’m going to look into that!!
Starting 24-30 hours before the race, keep your diet super simple. Nothing that'll sit around long in your digestive system / be difficult to process. Like no meat, very little fiber, not a lot of fat or processed junk. Go for liquid-based nutrition more so than solid. Research the foods that cause bloating & gas and avoid them. Easy in, easy out.
Virtually all the food you were eating during this video before the race you should have chosen to not eat.
Your beautiful 💞 😍
What is Anne Hathaway doing running? Haha
mica is gorgeous nice features
Why are you eating a pizza i& your trying to go pro?
Carbs
Plus she’ll burn em off quick
@@emuhleeko I lived that life. If she wanna go pro, she needs to be more serious. The traditional method was to carb up before a race, but pizza? With all the extra cholesterol and cheese? Yeah, burn it off. Or clean it up. There are athletes, pro athletes, that have nutritionists and chefs making meals for them. If she wanna go pro, she needs to up her game with nutrition planning. It’s not all about training.
