This week I am running my HIGHEST MILEAGE EVER. It is peak week for marathon trianing. I am only 3 weeks away from the Mckirdy Marathon in New York City. Join me in flagstaff where I try and train to run the US olympic trials mark.

Look ma, I made it!

[@themikegarrett]

This was really helpful! Seeing that each run is normally 60-90 mins is key! I'm running 11 min/mile easy runs and have been thinking I needed several hours a day to achieve "elite mileage".

[@AdamWoodRuns]

TIME ON FEET is a such an underrated way to measure strain on the body

[@LaMonteStennis]

My average i been trying to stay under ten but it be hard. Goal is to average easy 9 minutes a mile

[@JGB87]

Hi adam. I did my marathon pb of 2:24 in Valencia marathon running 120km avr week, do you think I can improve my PB if I increase my weekly milage. Thanks for sharing ✊🏻

[@ThatRunnerAaron]

Man runs 120k a week & is asking on KZbin if running higher volume leads to gains 😂😂😂 Jesus man

[@JGB87]

@@ThatRunnerAaron well compared to this guys whom run 60-70km higher, all I wanted to say if it will make a big difference

Love this! I’m a partially sighted marathon runner and I’m doing 85 miles p/wk. Can u plz do a video about what u eat to run high mileage? Thks! Stay blessed 🙏🏽

[@olivierauberger]

Dayum 85 miles a week. Well done!

[@nickydupkin]

Here before you turn pro🤘🏼

[@samboymebob]

Nice work man! I just ran my highest mileage (100 miles) last week for my marathon too! And solid advice at the end as well. Keep up the great vids!

[@karvn1148]

I can run 110-120 miles relatively stress free (time permitting), but as soon as I increase speed/intensity I get injured. How to increase speed safely?

[@B3b0_W3b0]

How much was your average weekly mileage each year (hs-college athlete) if you remember or just like an estimate?

[@mr.t1417]

don't go over 60-70 mpw in HS

[@PatrickCole-md9bu]

How are you at the trail marathon distance with technical trails?

[@mottesen_runs]

When are you coming back to Utah 😢… also bro you need more shoes in the rotation imo. Or maybe I need fewer and just have a problem 😅

[@crazyender839]

Good stuff man, keep working hard. Can’t wait to see you at the top.

[@hawkf9199]

Also making sure you get the calories to do those high milage weeks, quality nutrition plays a huge factor in the early stages

[@The_Conspiracy_Analyst]

Hobby jogger junk mileage

[@jordanross634]

What do you do for recovery? I assume it's mainly days with an easier pace and possibly lower mileage?

[@SoutheastSam3]

Eating and sleeping enough are the best for recovery.

[@bvaldez04]

Do you ever take days off of running or cross train? If so, how often?

[@evanmegoulas]

High Adam what watch do you use for running I have right now the Garmin 235 What should I get it

[@Jakobos123]

that's a great watch and helped me run a 2:39 marathon. No reason to upgrade in my case at least.

[@evanmegoulas]

@@Jakobos123 okay thanks

[@victorhanley623]

awesome video sir

[@ogl-aspect]

Damn bro I’ve been running for 2 years in 17 rn and damn bro compared to you I’m so far behind your drive is commendable bro 110 a week is crazy I struggle to run more than 15 miles how can I get better when I’m training myself and 12 hours in school ?

[@ThatRunnerAaron]

Just time mate. Can take years for your body to adapt to load. Keep on training & you’ll be able to do it in time.

[@toon8945]

Train low heartrate 80% of the time believe me you would be suprised how many people train wrong

im not even a runner ( hate it) im a calisthenics guy but I am obsessed with these videos

[@na-dk9vm]

Adam, if you were training for a very fast 2 mile race, how long would your weekly "long run" be to be at your best for the 2miler??

[@LaMonteStennis]

I did an average of 10 miles a day last month. I bumped it up to 15 this month but I ain’t been making it this month lol.

[@Hoops.c3ve]

What are you doing in terms of recovery?

[@gudboyngdisyerto]

how much weekly mileage can you do without running twice in a day?

[@Emschough]

Me ran 8.3 miles this week. Me fat

[@smallbrain7849]

What would be your advice be to a high school distance runner looking to make huge improvements in cross country and track?

[@qiyo2812]

What’s helped me improve almost 2 minutes in a little over a month is to train hard and I don’t take any rest days. 2 minutes is a lot cause I just started this year and I went from 20 min to 18 min. Really give all you have on hard days and try and incorporate hills into your workouts

[@jonahmays]

I’m not a professional but as a younger hs athlete trying to improve; 1.) recover correctly 2.) get a training partner/team 3.) control the controllables (hydration, sleep, nutrition, etc)

[@Jakobos123]

@@qiyo2812 I'm unsure about this advice. No rest days may be a viable option once you have gotten your body to a fitness level that can absorb daily training - that being said, this will not apply to everyone and even the best of the best take a day off once in a while. Be confident, push hard, there's likely a lot of low hanging fruit to grab and you will improve with no time. But patience is key in running. People don't often fall short in their plans because they trained too little, but rather because they got impatient and got injured. Be flexible and listen in with your physique, develop the skill to know best what your body needs/can handle. Good luck!

[@mr.t1417]

taking no rest days is horrible advice, just because you didn't get injured doing so doesn't mean someone else won't aswell thats like an injury speedrun for most people@@qiyo2812

[@mr.t1417]

Biggest things that most highschoolers struggle with is 1a) consistent 8+ hours sleep pretty much every night (the toughest but most rewarding) 1b) Eat/Hydrate well throughout the day probably more than you are doing right now 2) base building easy mileage over the summers and in between XC/track seasons 3) run your easy runs VERY easy (easier than you probably are running them right now) so that you are rested for your workouts to be run hard

[@lucianavila-gatz4667]

Let’s go can’t wait until you race! I run cross country and I’m going to do outdoor, but I live in a cold state with not the best training weather. How would you recommend I stay fit?

[@randomtactician6290]

Count your blessings bro. It's 90 degrees with 80-90% humidity where I live in the summer but we make it work. Now that it's getting into the 50s and 60s it's better, but sometimes you just have to deal with bad conditions. In the winter it's a huge range though, 10 degree days and snowstorms aren't super rare, but I also once sat outside on Christmas in a short-sleeve shirt (it was 65 degrees), but we make it work. Short answer is move your ass somewhere else or get used to it lmfao.

could you add the km equivalent in the editing? KZbin is worldwide and the rest of the world speaks in km

Yo love the videos, just wondering where do you get all of your info for you how to form your training plan? looking to run a marathon someday and wondering how you made your training plan.

Years of experience and a Coach is what’s really helped me. There are lots of articles and videos on how to structure training plans, best thing you can do is ask questions!
