How old are you now? ❤

What kind of machine is that on your right side?

Luv the accent!! ❤ from Sweden

Great video as always, some very interesting sessions. When I saw you do the 45k it tempted me for my next block. I’ve always wanted to do the full distance in training but didn’t know what sort of pace would be best, but your session was a good indicator I think! How do you feel about a 3x6k/20mins (6k ends up about 21km mins) @ fast end of threshold as a weekly session to include?

Anywhere you'd recommend for a 2 hour long run glasgow?

solid sessions

Great sessions and advice. Ive always ran too much of the shorter faster stuff 👍

Thanks Ryan, This is so helpful! I don’t do over the distance (27 mile) workout, but you inspired me to do a 24 mile long run during this block, and have done two 23 milers which I’ve never done before! (And one of those 23 milers I ended up averaging my goal marathon pace!🤯) I’ve noticed great improvement in my MP after these workouts and just that confidence that you can dig deep when you need to! I had one question for you! My last marathon block had its ups and down, and unfortunately I got a flu with fever the day before my marathon… Of course, I had to cancel my race, but have only missed one day of running (the fever day) during the 3-4 days of sickness and am now finally trying to get back to it with more volume and intensity. I was able to do “Dr Jack Daniels” 20 + min threshold yesterday and think that I’ll be able to do regular intensity starting tomorrow… I’m supposed to run another marathon in about 4 weeks and hoping that residual fitness I’ve built during my build for canceled race, before the taper, would help and I’m thinking to up my mileage for the next 2 weeks before another 2 week taper for my Feb 24 marathon. Given that I’ve lost some fitness during those 2 weeks of taper, do you think I should try and do another 24 miler this Sunday to “refresh” my cardiovascular system? If so, would you recommend I run it about 20 secs/min slower than MP? Thanks again and thanks for inspiration!!

Great video, very helpful! I’m planning to try some of these workouts. However, recovery from harder long runs is a concern for me. For example, I’ve discovered that a 27K long run at marathon pace is too much for me; a half marathon at that pace is my limit if I want to train effectively in the following week. Instead of following a weekly training cycle, I’m considering switching to a 10-day cycle to allow more time for recovery. Do you have experience with this approach or know of marathon runners who use it?

Some great sessions and sensible advice in there Ryan. 25k at marathon pace is a good one and doesn't knacker you out too much!

👍 I'll try this Thx

Great video. To have a break, mentally as well as physically, can only be a good thing. You earned it 👍

Use the same meter Jakob does, surely his one will work even when it’s Baltic 😂

Come to Ireland and do the Dublin marathon! 🇮🇪

Different meter, but the lactate plus's minimum operating temperature is 5deg celsius so Id bet its probably about the same for the lactate pro.

Mate your dad is hilarious. He was absolutely buzzing.

Really enjoy the videos. Really informative and engaging. Dad is a legend on the bike. Keep up the great work!

"I ain't buzzing"

I've seen other videos where people have trouble with the lactate meters in cold weather. Generally keeping it wrapped up and warmer should allow it to work properly! Nice session =D looked freezing!

Great job, mate.

Solid double threshy. I’d love one of those lactate meters but they’re so expensive that I just can’t justify it. I’m probably doing my thresholds too hard but hey…

Great vid Ryan. Made me wonder, why can't they make a continuous lactate measurement device? (the same way they have glucose monitors that diabetics wear).

Great day of training. Your dad is a legend on the bike too, filming in that weather 👍

next time try using a norwegian bennie and the meter will work better.

your the best

Beast mode, what a training run! 💪

Massive session! Congrats on the race win 👏

With the lactate pricking, if your currently doing it at a certain rotation ( think about a clock / circle) and finding it hard to get a good cut, try rotating the lancet 90 degrees. I think this will mean that you will go from a long thin cut to a wide one or vice versa, but either way one for me gave me a much better blood flow from the cut.

Was just wondering what you think is a good sort of weekly mileage to maintain good baseline fitness between training cycles? I’m trying to do around 35 miles a week at the minute.

Love this 😄 also love to run/recovery days with my partner! Definitely brings us closer 🤞🏼

Those reps were fast! How often do you hit a rep session like that in a marathon block? I used to do them every week, but it sounds like you hit them less frequently than that? Loving the content 👌

5:53 yellow car

Loving these Ryan 😁

Good to see you've got over your man-flu. I'm actually 'Mo' from Elder parkrun (long story, short - psycho boss stalking my whereabouts (on Strava) during Covid). Anyhoo, 78 miles on an easy week is impressive. I've spent the week doing laps of the local primary school car park as its gritted regularly! Boring AF and hoping Troon parkrun provides some respite tomorrow. Take it easy, cheers.

Thanks for the breakdown! A bit off-topic, but I wanted to ask: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (mistake turkey blossom warfare blade until bachelor fall squeeze today flee guitar). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?

Great video ryan, really helps when u see fast runner's taking it easy on their easy runs and not every session is perfect, ur right running in d dark on ur own is alot slower

Great videos Raz

💪

I'm enjoying your channel, here's to a great new year of running. Sorry to hear you got flu, it does sound like it was in your system for a good couple or 3 days before you finally succumbed to it.

Funny ! Keep giving us content 😊

Ryan your dad looked like a fit bucko😂 id say he done good times . does he still run?

Dinner of champions at 21:35.

You might make Clydebank famous again with those Strava maps 😂

Nice video, mate. great job

I resonate with what you said at 9:54. Whenever I come back from break I seem to never have the same motivation I had before. But always after a few weeks of staying diligent the motivation and passion comes back and its a wonderful feeling.

My own training is only just starting to feel decent again this week after the Christmas indulgence. I did get out for a run on Christmas Day for the first time ever, really enjoyed it, and worked up a serious appetite for Christmas dinner! Definitely going to be a new annual tradition going forward. I'm also convinced that you run slower in the dark - my weekday sessions are all in the evening because of work and I swear I'm working much harder to hit the same paces I'd hit on a Saturday or Sunday morning run. Best of luck to Holly in the London marathon! Going almost straight into another marathon block after Valencia is tough work but no doubt she'll smash it!

Great tips. The taper is such a difficult thing to get right. I definitely over tapered for my last marathon. Fantastic result by the way!! 👏

How often would you change your carbons for A) Racing B) Training Do you move your racing ones down to training after a certain amount of miles?

Did you practice pishing yourself?

Good video, cheers Ryan. I think i picked up an injury watching it 😅 would be good to see more of the dynamic stretching you speak of. I normally do a load of static stuff in my house before I go out. I do need to get more sports massage too. I normally go to the thai place in merchant city, it feels like she uses screw drivers and wrenches at times but it does get the tightness out of my calfs!
