A WEEK AWAY FROM THE NEW YORK CITY MARATHON | training, fuelling, resting and a progress update

[@ericabellew8809]

I’m a runner too and you can never be too safe especially as a solo female runner! Always go with your gut! Stay safe out there!

[@hollyb_fitness]

Very very true!!

[@optimusprime5398]

İ don't feel safe to, i run some times for cardio, some times running away when street dogs are hunting me. But the result is i run. 😝

[@oliviarossel7975]

SO proud of you! Dont forget your scrunchie and enjoy every second of what you've earned ❤

[@maleahchumley]

you’re incredible, holly!! ❤ reminder to pack your scrunchie right now!! all the best! love you!

[@hollyb_fitness]

aaaa it's going in the case now!! THANK YOU!!! love you x

[@sainsworth42]

i am soooooo stoked for you! soak all of it in. your mention about not having a time-specific goal makes so much sense. enjoy and know that all of us are cheering you on!

[@sainsworth42]

also, i could see some solid body comp changes 👌

[@hollyb_fitness]

Thank you SO much!!! So kind and so lovely to know you’re cheering me on 🥹🥹

[@maddiem5903]

ugh this is making me feel so much better! im running a half the same day as the NYC marathon. Even though the training is so much less than the full, I still feel shockingly tired this week, and just so so nervous that I have lost all my ability like you said. It's not my first half but it's my first time actually listening to a schedule and following taper, and it's crazy how much of a mental battle it is!

[@NicoleTownsend-l6p]

Best of luck in the New York marathon!!!

[@hollyb_fitness]

Thank you SO much

[@christinaclementson]

Good luck in NYC! I ran it last year and the atmosphere is incredible. Enjoy every minute!

[@nicolitabonita]

NYC native here and I'm so excited for you to do the marathon and visit NY! Rooting for you!

[@lauravilbiks]

Wishing you the best of luck with the marathon, so proud of you! Hope the day goes even better than you expect! 💛 I've just started running regularly since this summer, and your vlogs have definitely helped me stay consistent :)

I laughed so hard when you described the rain! 😂 good luck on the marathon! You’re going to smash it!! 🎉🎉

[@meganwatkins3612]

Yes always go safe routes! Luckily I always run with my dog so people steer clear x ❤

[@MellowsFitLife]

THE HANGOVERS. It’s not your age. I experience the same thing but I figured it out. I go weeks eating clean, drinking kombuchas, taking pre and probiotics. Creating this healthy gut and sleep cycle. Then boom . Stay up all night (cause it’s never day drinking lol) pour ethanol into my gut. Destroying everything. Your stomach like what the hell and your body is confused on what to do because it’s been running on this great routine for so long.

[@tammystiletto]

This is true for me if I have a day when I have too many treats or fast food, I’m not used to the grease or the extra sugar all at once. I just have to be careful or I’ll feel like crap.

[@sunnyandlovely]

I hope I see you at the marathon!!! Good luck!! We’ve got this! 🎉

[@hollyb_fitness]

GOOD LUCK!!

[@angiie06]

I just came from my run and am eating breakfast what better else to do than watch one of your vids, while I'm eating. 💕

[@mariamifsud3907]

Good luck darling Holly for the marathon you will be amazing 💖

[@MichaelScarbroughcat]

I enjoy listening to you. You train hard. Best wishes from Atlanta Georgia USA 🇺🇸

[@hannahcollardgray4448]

Good luck. I’m training for the London marathon, and I’ve been trying to find a training plan that suits my ability and my time goal of four hours, I tried looking on the strong girls society page, but me and tech isn’t great, any suggestions as to how I find a plan to suit me? Love your channel. I wish us women could feel safe while running.

[@briannathomas1555]

Don't forget your scrunchie when you pack for your trip! Good Luck!!!!

[@hollyb_fitness]

[@sofiasanabria2688]

Hello holly If you could let us know what garmin you are using and your feedback would be great

[@rebecca2180]

Good luck for the ny marathon!!!! and don’t forget your lucky scrunchie lmao

[@lorenag5168]

Hello! You did well turning around and changing routes. Which Garmin are you using? Are you happy with it? Thinking to buy one 😄 enjoy the marathon and looking forward to seeing your next video.

[@Mellymel355]

Girl get a mocktail you don’t need to drink to celebrate! Good luck you’ll kill it!

[@bebbington9]

I love the cream hoodie and joggers! Where are they from xx ❤

[@hollyb_fitness]

They're from DFYNE! I have a link and discount code in the video description xxx

[@sharonmichael2911]

Good luck 👍

[@annekafrench7120]

Interested in what Whoop can tell me what my Garmin doesn’t?? I have the 265 Forerunner. I get all my sleep, rem, deep, awake, score etc. training readiness, training status, HRV, pulse oxygen, stress.. Why would I need a Whoop??

[@hauntedbarbiedoll]

I know everyone's different and I'm not here to steer anyone away from sober life but for some reason I just stopped getting hungover when I switched from drinking beer to cider. Even hard seltzer could still give me a hangover but cider and mead just never make me ill for some reason. Liquor is still a no-go for me nowadays tho I'm done with that life.

[@indi7466]

good luck and don't forget your scrunchie xx

[@makeliferichmvmtpodcast]

Are you recording with your phone while running? or are you using a camera? You've inspired me to start running and documenting my journey!!

[@kassylarrouturou6591]

Hey, what is the app to track your food that you used in the video ? Thanks 🙏🏻

[@paaulinabartte]

What electrolytes do you take/recommend?😊

[@judithzenger7589]
