I just run a 19:40 parkrun last month. My easy pace is 6:00-6:30 per Km, that’s 9:40-10:30 per mile. I see people pass me on my easy runs all the time, but I know I will be passing them in races.
I've just found your channel, and what strikes me about your videos, and the comments, is the word "useful". I watch a lot of running videos, and find them inspiring, motivating, educational... but rarely actually USEFUL! I can't wait to incorporate the bucket method into my ultra training.
I like the scientific way you are approaching it. The 3 bucket model is what I’m doing already. What I don’t get is the value of the 30 minutes and 20 minutes runs in the weekly training schedule you have presented? I feel it could have more value only running three times a week or maybe seven times in 14 days - having always a rest day between sessions - and having longer sessions like e.g. 1) 60-75 min low intensity, 2) low intensity longrun of 90-120 min and 3) a tempo/interval session (alternating different setups of these in different weeks), and add some yoga or calisthenics on the non-running days. Maybe add some cross training like a cycling , spinning swimming rowing from time to time at recovery intensity.
Love your content, Brodie-this is awesome! Long-time listener of the podcast and have your book. Best running content out there for injury prevention. Love it! Thanks for all you do for the running community. :)
Ohhhhhhh!!! Gosh, this is sooooo helpful!! Yes me too I had gotten strides quite wrong... THANKS so much Brodie!!! On my easy runs I often repeat your little expression to myself; "embarrassingly slow"!!!😆
I'm 47 now and haven't trained till last year since 2018. I wish I would have known about running technique 15 to 20 years ago😢. I also like the content of Frederik Zillen and others or the short vids of chari hawkins and I think I have to stop toe running and implement midfoot strike with dorsoflexion to get it right. A worse thing is also to run the slow runs like a boring routine, because with awereness and concentration you will also learn a lot about technique there. And the fast runs only pushing hard without a bit of relaxation will also not take you to an economic running style. Awereness and relaxation and the right understanding will make the good runner. Otherwise you are unconciously plateauing or pushing into injury.
Am I right in saying that doing intervals too long basically turns it into a consistent effort tempo run? general rule of thumb is 1-8 minute max per interval. That's if you prefer time over distance, elite runners can do longer intervals because they can probably complete 2km much faster than 8 minutes?
@@RunSmarterwithBrodieSharpe what about a certrain most effective speed or heart rate zone for marathon training specifically? I would be inclined to run some 20 seconds faster in these 800m intervals (HM pace), and use some tempo blocks at expected MP (zone 3) during my long runs for example.
I haven’t come across any research to confidently answer your question. Running segments at marathon pace during your long run leading into the marathon is a great idea and widely practiced. The shorter stuff would be designed to increase your VO2 max. There is some great tips on how to do that in this video th-cam.com/video/a4fg7o3n9Bw/w-d-xo.htmlsi=SzY7C0HnwP-j9i51

I love this Kelly, it is a good reminder for me when making future videos!

You have made my day Jesse and thanks for reaching out! Looking forward to hearing more feedback and feel free to reach out if you have questions.

Thank you for this Brodie. Really useful as always!
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching
Great video Brodie! 😉
Great podcast! 👍

@@Raucherbeinknacker very well said 👏 thanks for watching and taking the time to share your thoughts and experiences
Wow great info Brodie. Thank you Always informative … explained very easily ❤
Glad you enjoyed Cathy!
Super great video!
What you're recommending for recovery between each stride? A super light jog or walking?
Thanks for watching. Glad you think so. Walking or standing for 1-2 mins should do the trick
@@RunSmarterwithBrodieSharpe Thanks for the immediate response!

Thanks for commenting Eric. I think intervals less than 4-5 mins is recommended. Keep it short and fast.
Did I understand you right saying that 800m repeats have shown to be more effective than longer interval reps?
Correct 👍
