  1. S5E33 Fools Run 5k

    APR 6

    S5E33 Fools Run 5k

    Blew up. Legs were sore this morning even during warmup but once started racing felt good. Started in 3rd. Round a mile in took 2nd. Maybe a tenth after turn around moved into 1st. Was feeling good. Legs were fine. Wasnt taxing. Had 10 second lead on 2nd at the time. Then about 2.2 stomach turned. Started choking. Had stop still had lead. Then maybe tenth later happened again. Then 2 passed me. Was mentally defeated. If i stopped completly regrouped I probably could have caught back up. But I tried running again and basically threw in the towel. Goal was to be under 18 and I think I was gonn get it. But things happen. And thats why you gotta show up. Believe it was the beet powder because I could feel it in my stomach or fish sandwhich last night. Either way did not get it done and am very disappointed to say the least. Even if i didnt win but finished under 18 id been happy. This was supposed to be a race test to see fitness andbsee where actually is. But i failed miserably. #WorkoutMotivation #ChallengeAccepted #GoodVibes #PositiveVibes #StayActive #EnjoyTheProcess #FitnessJourney #RunningMotivation #AthleteMotivation #FunFitness #RunHappy #TrainHardHaveFun #TrackAndField #DailyRun  #Shorts #YouTubeShorts  #ViralShorts #Trending #ForYou #HolidaySeason #HappyHolidays #FestiveVibes #WinterVibes #FallVibes #SeasonalContent #Thanksgiving #Thanksgiving2025 #Gratitude #Motivation #Running #Athletes #Fitness #Workout #Sports #HealthyLifestyle #GetFit #Training #AthleteLife #Runner #RunnersOfYouTube #TrackAndField #Endurance #SpeedTraining #MarathonTraining #Sprint #DistanceRunning #RunningMotivation #FunWorkout #FitnessFun #WorkoutMotivation #ChallengeAccepted #GoodVibes #PositiveVibes #StayActive #EnjoyTheProcess #FitnessJourney #RunningMotivation #AthleteMotivation

  2. S5E30 Training Switches Im Doing To Improve

    S5E30 Training Switches Im Doing To Improve

    Training switch ups 3 differnt 1) Really digging the new speed training method which is the norwegian 4x4. Ive tried a bunch of different styles but for me, this fits me best since I hate track workouts and fartleks give me achellies issues. So with this added in with tempo and hill repeats this should help me greatly by end of summer. 2) I also am fully back on percieved effort runs over heart rate. I tried heart rate training and im absolutely against it. It set me back alot over the last couple years. Its to flawed and personally I think it has people running to slow during runs, I also think its a shady concept coaches use to keep clients. To many variables can affect heart rate each day, if you do the same run 7 days in a row your heartrate will not be the same at same pace each of those 7 days. Percieved effort is so much better as a training model. Some days you can run faster with little effort then you cam on other days. For instance somedays a 8 min pace will seem super hard as if you were running at your race pace with heartrate still in a zone 2 or 3 whereas others it seems super easy, while your heart may or may super high. So effort is a better metric for running over heartrate. I know alot of coaches and elites have also back on board. If you have a coach who is reccomending heartrate zone training get a new one.  3) The other interesting thing im mixing in is eating and drinking more during day so im actually fueld and hydrated. Even during runs and races im actually fueling alot more. And going to more feuled runs. Been testing out new gels and hydration supplements I literally can run a 50k in 5 hours with only 500 calories or less food inake. Im incorporating more food/drinks so body has more feul to use and hopefully allow me run better and ultimatly faster. Its going to be interesting to see the race results.
