Thanks for the video mate, always love the thought you put into your running and training. Might be tempted to try one of the distances at the You Yangs next year. Do the organisers provide that gazebo/space for you to store your gear/tub?

Thank You so much for this❤ I am not a runner, I'm an artist. A legally blind artist and I have a rare heart condition. I started looking at running videos a few months ago because I was depressed. I was stressed because of my eyesight, and I wasn't able to do the art that I used to do all my life. For a long time, I would look at motivation videos, but for some reason nothing clicked. I needed something out of the box. That is when I came across running videos, trail running, and triathlons. I thought if I could learn a little bit about how they overcome doing hard things, I could apply the same thing to my life. It worked. I started looking at each day like getting from one checkpoint to another. I made a lot of changes but I am far from where I want to be. I am still not doing art as often as I should. To be honest, even though I love it, I never really feel like creating art or do anything for that matter. I understand that I am going through some stuff but your video gave me the perfect key. Discipline. To be able to do things even when I don't feel like it. I totally understand. I need to make a schedule and stick with it. That is how I will win my race. Thank you for this. It was very helpful❤

Good weather? Sorry I gotta go with James, Perth is a thousand times better for running. Hell we had 22 ml rain from Jan to mid May this year. Melbourne had more than that just in May! We have a ton of trails and parks, with lots of easy running footpaths everywhere. Running a marathon along the beach is also feasible in Perth, which I've done a couple times. Melbourne's fine, but it really has nothing on Perth :)

I too run quite a lot. 257 runs in 2023 totalling 3326km, over 76000 metres of elevation gain and some 340 hours spent. That's probably too much to be honest. I could probably run faster if I ran a bit less, but apart from all the great reasons related to physical health, I run because I'm unhappy. Running just helps give me something positive to do. Something to look forward to, and something to make me feel just a tiny bit better about myself.

Hi! I have a 4 months old bc and she is very good except when I start to run beside her. (I know it's to early to go for proper runs, just trying to get her use to it) but she is herding as soon as I start to run...and only when I run. Do you have any advice for this kind of problem?😢
@RunningAlive
@RunningAlive 8 ай бұрын
The main thing I did was ensure she heeled properly when walking first. Then when running if she tried anything like running off or herding then I would come to a complete stop. Make her wait once back in position. Then run again. But I didn’t have to do that much with CC. Only a few times over the first few runs.

I just randomly came across this video & must say, I feel every single thing you went through over the 100km. It was my first SCC this year & I went in targeting sub 12 hours. The course hammered me way more than I thought & I got in just after 14 hours. Slightly disappointed at first but the satisfaction of finishing was enough & will keep me motivated for the next challenge, nice job mate!

When I read Coburg 24h , I expected a run in the 1000 year old city and not in this new building area. But despite that disappointment 😉, a great video with great insights. This running on the track reminds me of the Elbtunnel -Marathon. You are running in the tubes and see the same people over and over again.

I visited Coburg, Germany, a few times and thought a 24h run there has to be cool. The Elbtunnel-Marathon is 48 rounds some 20m below the surface. If you're a runner like me, you most likely are lapped several times in the first half of the race. But you will also start lapping other people. Finally you make your way to the top of the leaderboard, which they display at the finish line. When you drop out after you finished, the next guy is happy to be on top 😀. Unfortunately, I think they will not be allowed to do another marathon, when the reconstruction of the tunnel is completed.

My first carbon plated shoes and I totally agree that they feel better the faster you go, not good at slow speeds, I had to go sockless to be able to get these on, but plenty of room length wise, in fact I found the same as you that these need to be laced right up to avoid slippage, then the laces are not really long enough for a triple knot, which I do for races. Very pleased with these and can't wait to try them out at my local Park Run, just hope as a 67 year old I can keep up with the shoes 😅🤣
