Let’s go!! Absolutely.

@ lol amazing !

Glad to hear it! Thanks for the support!

I know it may seem like you can’t handle anything, but I bet there’s something out there that sits well that you haven’t tried yet. If nothing is really seeming to work, my best advice is to try and slowly train yourself to handle something by starting with a little and getting in more and more over a couple weeks. It really is worth trying to work on training the gut. Gatorade is still good though as the sugar and electrolytes are better than nothing

@@CharlieTeeter-427Yeah I know you’re right. Maybe I’ll try an unfrosted pop tart. Or a couple of Hostess ding dongs 😂

Hahaha, anything is worth a shot

It’s a great fan. Thank you sir

Yeah would not recommend

Thank you!

Thank you 😁

Absolutely agree. I’ve been leaning closer to 40-50 minutes in recent weeks too actually. Thanks for the comment!

Same. Sometimes it can take a bit to get out the pre-run poop 😂

Thank you, and good luck!

1) Yes, I am a frog. 2) That’s what epsom salt is sort of said to do through marketing and user reports of feeling relaxation, but you’re right! Most science isn’t certain if it’s actually absorbed or not 3) I take a magnesium supplement before I sleep every night regardless

I’m a big shoe nerd so this changes all the time. I’ve ran in 8+ brands including Skechers. Right now I’m using the Nike structure, brooks ghost max, and hoka Mach 6 for easier stuff and the hoka Mach X1 and metaspeed edge paris for workouts and racing

👍

Love it! Totally. I do a lot of meal prepping throughout the weekend and early week to make sure I don’t have much to do after my morning runs except shower, get dressed, and head out the door. I pretty much just think through everything I might need to do before work, then shift as much of it to the night before as possible

@@CharlieTeeter-427 thanks that helps out a lot! I'll definitely try to put that into practice moving forward!

@ happy to help!

If they sleepin on you, tuck em in

😈

I’ve been there before. At the end of the day if you’re feeling energized, even if you’re getting less than 7 hours of sleep, then it’s okay. Your body will rest as much as it needs too. We obviously always want to get more sleep, but on those days where you wake up and can’t fall asleep again my best advice is to not stress about it too much. If you’re still laying down or reading or something, your body is resting and that is still productive

@CharlieTeeter-427 thank you. I am a govt employee working 8-5. It is really hard but i need food on the plate thats more important.

Glad to hear it 😁

That is absolutely the goal 🤑

Great to hear! The biomechanics routine makes a big difference. Hope you give it a try for a few weeks

I definitely would if the opportunity was there, but I also love my job as a materials engineer. It’s nice to have multiple things to focus on and be interested in

Thanks mate, love the Lego flowers

Absolutely dialed

Thanks man! Getting super hyped

Great to hear! Maybe I’ll find myself up north sometime. Thanks for the support!

Thank you 🤝

It’s in the works

Thanks for the support! Love to see it. Consistency is key, if you can string together a good set of weeks I’m sure you’ll hit your goal soon

Love seeing fellow engineers in the comments

Thanks mate, always appreciate the comments! I’ve always been brown sugar cinnamon, probably always will be

Thanks for watching! My lifts are different every single week, this week just happened to include leg press and 1 leg jumps but that’s not a constant feature of my lifts. I’ll try and make a video on a full lifting set / my approach to lifting sometime soon if that’s something people are interested in seeing

@@CharlieTeeter-427 that would be amazing, thank you so much!

I’ve got some friends in med school and I know that’s one of the toughest schedules out there. Very glad you found this video - I hope you’re able to continue making the high mileage grind fun and hope you hit that goal time!

@@CharlieTeeter-427 thanks man, I love seeing people work hard for what they want! Keep it up.

Thank you so much!! And thanks for being a huge backbone of all of this, so stoked with how everything is going

Right now, yes I’m just shooting for anything under 2:20. I don’t ever anticipate hitting any numbers close to 2:08:xx, and don’t ever anticipate seriously attempting to qualify for the Olympic team. To qualify for the Olympic trials however, I’ll need to run under 2:18:00. I think I can run that in much less than 3 years from today, but it’s really hard to tell as this is my first time truly going for a fast time from the gun. Hoping I can maybe get down towards 2:14-2:15 come 2028, but don’t really know how to estimate my future abilities right now given that it’s early in my career. Thanks for the question and the support!

@@CharlieTeeter-427 Right on, man. Those are great goals. I can see qualifying for the Olympic trials as a massive goal in itself, but if you don't think you could make the team, why shoot for the trial time? Perhaps that is a stupid question! Just curious.

Shoutout to the Centennial Conference

I used capcut to edit this video, but honestly I’m still figuring out everything editing-wise for myself and don’t think I’d be able to explain anything well. I say you should definitely give things a shot though!

Yep!

Materials Science and Engineering, focused mainly on metallurgy

Hahah that’s wild. I’ve miss counted hill sprints before when I was doing 20-30 reps, but this was actually the first time I’ve ever miss counted a longer interval workout. Pretty funny that it happened on the afternoon session and not like a 12xmile day or something like that with equal length reps

Thank you son

Let’s go!! Best of luck with the upcoming training block, and thanks for the comment!

I aim for 8-9 hours a night, sometimes end up with 7-7.5 but rarely ever less than that. I value sleep a lot and think it’s essential for the training schedule I’m on, that’s something I’m probably going to talk a lot more about in my next video

Really nice to see others doing the same thing, helps with motivation. Thanks for the support! I’m actually from St. Louis and will be racing the STL half marathon there as a tune-up for CIM in two weeks!

Thank you!
