ALL OUT 400m in Spikes!

Just HAD to find out what kind of 400m shape I'm in! Also, there is something so satisfying about spiking up and ripping an all out lap around the track. Know what I mean?! :D

[@europaeuropa3673]

When you ran the 47.4 your work load was much more intense than now. Running 51.9 shows you still got it. Excellent time.

[@nicksymmonds]

Thank you! Some muscle memory in there somewhere :D

[@shayanr88]

Shane Chung he started ahead at the right spot for the lane he was in. He ran exactly 400n

[@barefootbeachrunner9498]

@Shane Chung Actually physics and im sure Nick would agree mid lanes give you the best efficiency Not too many sprinters like the inside or outside lanes

[@natebruffett857]

I can run 1:09

[@barefootbeachrunner9498]

My best 400 is about 1:14 but then im a older long distance plodder not a sprinter Or as my swim coach at masters puts it Im a hybrid😂 As im a sprinter in the pool and an endurance runner on trail or road

[@williampultinas1507]

Very smooth running Nick especially at 36. You're compact but at the same time you have a long stride. You make it look easy and I know its not. I'm 54 now and my h.s. best was 53.5

[@baptistelacroix891]

Nice run Nick! I’m hoping to be running a 400m around that this year! Just gotta keep up the hard work. Love your videos man, they help me out so much

[@raremannyyt7293]

I just joined the track team before corona virus and my season started after that I noticed that running was my thing and I was good at it and I liked it. This motivated me to train super hard everyday and I watch multiple videos on how to properly set up a good running schedule and I went from running a 64 to 56 seconds In just 4 months which was super hard and if your reading this and you want to get better just keep training. Btw im a 7th grader in Texas and its summer so more of an opportunity to train even harder

[@ryanmcginley9446]

All good races come with a +2 second cane through in 24.5 ish

[@nicksymmonds]

certainly in the 400 and 800! Love a +2 second differential

[@ashleyjohn4309]

Great run! I'm easing my way back on the track it's great to see these fun vidz

[@daFranch1se69]

Dang. Thanks for the videos Nick. Huge supporter here. Can't wait for the next vid. And 51 seconds was awesome. Great job!

Thank you!!! Next vid will come out on 01/24. Appreciate you watching my videos!!

Prob not here, but I know Lewis Howes and his team are working on putting a video together. Epic experience!!

I pause at 2:21 my guess is 53:16 for 400m let's see.... it's amazing nick I am also an 800m runner my pb is also 51:45 last year it means your 800m time is still 1:55or1:56 great

HI Nick. I really love how well produced your videos are. Your content is entertaining and it's awesome to see you still going hard. Great stuff!

[@zswirl7894]

You’re a great runner Nick. Keep up the good work.👍

[@bramcallewaert113]

Nick how many hours a week do you train?

[@nicksymmonds]

one hours per day, 6 days per week

[@forest69ist]

Nick i am 50 and have foot problems Mortons toe and one turf toe. Trying to train 8 to 10 hours a weekso i can break 2 for 800m and 4:30 for the mile. The secret will be as you did back in the day get good base then month of intervals than hit in July September. 5 foot 11 and 156 pounds so am at racing weight just need fitness. Wish i was in USA would come to visit your track

[@BAtrackedits]

“What an awesome 2020 so far” first time I’ve ever heard someone say that

[@MrJonjoe1977]

Great effort. It looked like it might of been a bit cold? On a warmer day you might go a bit faster.

[@sebastianherwitz4568]

Nowadays that would be fast enough for the 400m world championship final

[@bodendarling7053]

once i was in football and we had to run a mile but i only had my crocs and my football cleats so i had to9 run the mile in crocs i ended up getting 3rd overall so pretty good.

[@FinleyPowell-gg8sq]

Well done

[@nicksymmonds]

thank you!!

[@christianestrada8818]

So close to guessing it! I predicted you at 51.62. Awesome job, Nick!

[@nicksymmonds]

Very close!!

[@andrewisrunningwhilevibin4583]

My chest was burning just watching this video

[@richardsun589]

The 800 m specialist is showing through those wonky splits lol but that last 100 was pretty crazy

[@JOWrestling]

AWESOME NICK! I'm gonna try this...

[@edwardgutierrez2638]

Dang to break 52 for being a washed up Olympian is hella impressive! That's faster than alot of HS runners.

[@wileyschmitt]

I'd go with the word 'former' rather than the term 'washed up'.

[@jaseposton6317]

please make a video on how to run your fastest 400 or workout to predict your 400m time

[@aj4runner]

Is that the track at Lane Community College? Looks like a wonderful venue for track workouts. I'd like to see you run for life in USATF Master's competitions. You can have fun trying the 200m, 400m and 1500m versus men in your age group, and maybe set a few records along the way in the 800m. :)

[@nicksymmonds]

Yep! I love the LCC track!!!

[@furfamilysue]

Enjoyed the video Nick. You inspired me and love that you can run well. Competition is tough in masters track. I was 48 years old in 2009 and ran a 54.87 and was ranked 18th in 45-49 age group in USA. Not even top 50 in the world for age group 45-49. Keep running!

[@abbimorrell]

Curious, what goes through your mind / what do you tell yourself when your running an all out sprint like this ?

[@fuwluv]

with u nick, what harder 400 or 800 dash

[@mattlombardo3286]

“What an awesome 2020 it has been”🙃

[@thomasmichaels6850]

Nice Nick! Thought you might dip below 50 after that first 200. 36? Wait til you get to 62 (like someone very close to me). Haha. I want to get into decent enough shape to run an all out mile and see what I can do. I'd be ecstatic to go sub six. Now if only my Achilles would cooperate. Hahaha. Always love the videos. The drone footage was awesome on this one. Have a great day!

[@munindrabisen9533]

You know what the best predictor exercise to know what mile shape you are in is........RUNNING A MILE. QUICK AND ACCURATE.

[@green2984]

yaasss finally! I have been waiting to see this!!

Hope it lived up to the expectations!! Thank you for watching my videos :)

[@VanJolene]

Your drone operator does a great job!

[@holttunstall4149]

Hey nick I have a question so I am in 7th grade and I run a 1:22 400m and I was wondering if that was good or not

[@Skybolt727]

its not bad I just started doing track this year and my first few 400s were in the 1:20-1:30 but now i can get 1:10 just stick with it and work hard. remember that you are racing yourself to be better.

[@q12aw50]

No

I have this kid in my school he’s a sophomore and he runs a 49 it’s insane

[@allirivers5218]

You are probably not going to see this comment but I’m a new runner I started running last year. What do spikes do that normal running shoes don’t

Spike have metal pins coming out of the bottom

Nice job Nick, you've still got it!

Thank you Ted!!

Liked it Nick. Waiting to see the workouts. Am 50+ and can ran 400m in 70secs.

Real good run! Amazing you ran that back to back in your 800 pro days. I wish I was more dedicated and trusted training back in the day. Under achieved. Older fan here. Hah.

Hey.... sub 52 is pretty darn good.... and you held your form well.... nice job Mr Symmonds :)

Great work on the sub-52! I wonder how much quicker you'll go with the sub-11 speed on board come summertime?

[@wileyschmitt]

Oooooooooh, I want those spikes.

[@sanjayKumar-gm1wu]

In this time you will win gold medal in my state

[@ausmanx1161]

Just graduated last year and went to states several times but didn’t want to run track in college. I’m glad I’m not doing any sports in college because you won’t be able to party much during track Bc it’s terrible to do so and stuff.

[@krishnamurugan937]

I love your videos Nick

[@nicksymmonds]

Thank you!! So excited for all the videos we have planned this year

[@RAYGUNWOD]

Absolutely awesome vid editing

[@BAtrackedits]

Nick, do you chew both run gums at the same time or one before and one after

[@indoorandoutdoorendurance3889]

Great Video, Nick!

[@MrTrackman100]

Kudos. No doubt you can break 50 with focused training. 250s. 300s, repeats, etc.? Love to hear you'll try again. (I'm a master 400 man and love (hate?) this distance. Also, with good training, I find I can still improve although aging.)

[@MrTrackman100]

I approximately timed each 100: 12.6; 25.5; 40.6; 51.94. Something seems wrong with you doing about 11.34 the last 100?? (Also, last 200 in 25.4??). Either I am wrong or you are incredibly strong the last 200 and especially the last 100!! (Never heard of an elite 400 man finishing in 11.34).

[@q12aw50]

The fastest 400 men run under 11 seconds for each hundred, and the numbers aren’t the 100 mark the line further back is. He ran a 12.5 ish last 100

[@JacobMeza-pro-footballer]
