@@expatadventureturkey9324 thanks mate I've recently started to go .5 size up on all shoes because of the feet swell on longer races 💪

@@MattRuns I could run further backwards Matt 😂

@@TadeuszCantwell nowhere near 😂 5.7km in 1hr 10 I didn't crawl 😂

@@DT-gn4qw 🤣🤣🤣🤣 classs

Glad you enjoyed it got you're ok

ITS A LITTLE HARDER TO STICK TO IN PRACTICE THO :)

age is but a number all my grandads pb's came when he was 55 yrs old

I ran my first ultra at 52, so it definitely can be done. I was a hiker for a couple years before that but not a runner or an athlete. If I had all the discipline in the world I would go back and train for 2-3 months in zone 2 for 2 hours a day, as many days a week as I could stand (up to 5). The mitochondria buildup a capillarization that happens would just set you up for an amazing training block. I’d work on running form and cadence during those sessions as well. You will get some amazing fatigue resistance and durability from it as well. I took too long to do base building phase and added in intensity too early, ended up injured a lot. The proper way to run is slow, slow, slow, the speed comes with time. Add in strides after a month and speed sessions (tempo runs, hill sprints, etc) to get speed. I’m now running hills I never thought I would ever run, by learning to run slow uphill and not let my heart rate get out of control but still keep good leg turnover. Again, slowly getting faster. Best of luck.

need to take onboard myself lol

@ good at giving out advice, bad at following it.. sounds familiar 🤣

@danielstaves 😂😂😂😂😂

thanks mate i hope youre feeeling a little better at least

@@richardvivian3665 yes 100% excited to see him progress through the ranks

@@bev9708 very interesting info thanks bev

That doesn't take sense when I translate it

@@leerunsultras bu ayakkabının aynısı aldım altı yumuşak değil yani tabanı sert olduğu için iade ettim

Ah I found it ok ion mine never had a problem with it

@@jonhares5089 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣shat

😂😂

Yes they are mate, keeping mine for races really

@@leerunsultras Hey mate, may I ask which pair of shoes you’d recommend for daily training? Cheers!

Depends on what you usually use to be honest mate? Is there a brand you normally use

​@@leerunsultras Hmm...I guess it would be Hoka or Salomon. By the way, I’ve noticed that when I wear Hoka trail shoes on steep downhills, my toes hit the front of the shoes, causing pain and black toenails. Do you have any tips on how to prevent this?

Appreciate it mate yes 4 months be a wicked turn around now

@@ryanmason4861 appreciate you taking the time to comment mate. Let's get on this grind together 💪

thanks buddy

could be a good idea

@@KingSloth haha I was on the gate when you were on cow and gate pal 🤣

@@BenNotley let's get it

Behave mun 🤣🤣🤣🤣

@leerunsultras 🤣🤣🤣

Still a youngster at heart brother get after it

@ Brother, you’ve touched my heart…

Still a youngster at heart bro

Never too old to start thanks for watching

Not sure young old enough to remember the turtles mind. 🤣 👴

Chat gp teas finest 😂😂😂😂😂

@leerunsultras Love a good bit of chat GPT

I know, many a NVQ has been passed since this was introduced. 🤣

@leerunsultras Wish I had Chat GPT when I went through my education

@KingSloth A 🌟 everywhere 😂

Ah mate appreciate the comment. Strength is vital. 2 sessions a week is optimal, Ive started one all over body compound strength and then a targeted running specific session with resistance bands etc. keep at it mate 💪

🤣 I suppose it's the nature of the beast thanks for watching

I coach on training peaks 💪

@@leerunsultras . training peaks is excellent, I've been using it for about 6 years. the recently added training peaks virtual makes it even better.

Pretty much like they did the price increase without telling us 😑

😂😂😂😂 love it can beat a good segments tempo session

with all these comments i was startign to think i was the only one. :) i didnt even speak about the planned price increases either. are you garmin or coros?

@@leerunsultras Garmin. But for analysis I prefer intervals.icu.

for sure because they have pivoted from a sport app to a data hoarding and reselling app thus all those "fitness" features they can sell them

exactly this.

never heard of icu

the leaderboards are absolutely littered with e bikers taking bikers times, i dont bike muhc but can imagine that extremly frustrating. with the runner and cars winning segements. iv'e alwayd thought it would be easy for strava to filter someone thats done a km in 54 secs and for it to automatically flag it.

haha thats a whole other video, i turned that notification off as soon as i could tbh. im going to do an indepth video on coros and why i prefer that app now to anything else should be out this weekend.

It's very frustrating because there is potential to use AI to actually analyse your data and show you graphs of things using matplotlib. Because the one useful part of the AI is when it says something like 'this is your highest heart rate in the past 6 months'.

that would be great

i think thats the perfect approach, as if a company would raise the costs without first giving its users an option to cancel. madness. i will take a look a runalyze as i have never heard of it

​​@@johanschreuder5847 not once did I tell anyone to leave Strava. If you watched the video you would have seen I done an in-depth look at what features there are and the benefits of joining Strava. I left because it's not working for me. I'm glad you unsubscribe. Carry on being toxic pal. Wish you all the best . Chow 💪

you couldn't have said it any better mate, i suppose strava is perfect for those starting out who don't own a watch, since it has the ability to record straight from the phone

Hahahaha yes my thought exactly although Coros is way better than Garmin 😉😮

Glad you get used out of it mate. Hopefully they can use the ai for good things soon

I've just found myself not using it all all mate. Thanks for watching

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 amazing. I might try and download map my run now see if that's still going ,😮😉

Took me way to long to edit this though Ben

@@leerunsultras you smashed it mate. Very slick! 👌 Nike Run Club? 🤣

😂😂😂😂 run keeper

Totally agree, the app is way above any other fitness app put there right now. ❤️ Thanks for watching mate.

Yes, that's not the reason I'm leaving mate. I had subscription for maps and Coros is way better and it's free plus I don't use Strava at all lately

I don't care that you didnt ask, now crawl back where you came from
