My favorite thing to say when I run is “you deserve to know what happens when you don’t allow yourself to quit” and it gets me PUMPED. Loved this video!!

[@ariannavalera7813]

This is epic, thank you for sharing!

[@beautyqueen07047]

Listening to this just before my first run EVER to build the courage. Courage BUILT - thank you Holly!!!!

[@sylviadawn4580]

These are great tips. I run and I tell anyone wanting to run to make sure you stretch before and after. It helps protect you from a lot of injuries. Congratulations on your marathon ☺️

You're such a bright light for others, you're so encouraging.

I love saying ‘It doesn’t matter how slow you go so long as you keep going’ to myself to motivate myself to keep going. I wish I could be okay with running indoors, I just can’t deal with treadmills and the feeling of not going anywhere. How do I train my stomach to tolerate food while running and not feeling like I’m going to be sick? Even with jellybeans my stomach was not impressed. Park runs are my weekly speed training session. I’m so competitive when it comes to PBs. I’m currently training to run the London marathon in April next year. It’s so exciting that it will be my first.

I just signed up for my first 5k race after not running for quite a few years since army college. So it’s been a while. Excited to see how it goes and to see what comes in the future ☺️

[@Evie170]

Thank you for these tips...Ordered the Hoka Bondi runners, they have been great, only shoes where I haven't had blisters...Also ordered the sports bra and free train bra, as I've signed up for a 1/2 marathon next month. Really looking forward to it! :)

[@refinejoy]

im currently thinking about starting to run as a way to. push myself and clear my mind I also want to run a 5 mile marathon. I never did it before and it would be cool too. mentally is why I want to run, just strengthen my mind. thank you for the tips this is very helpful. I need to get running shoes next.

[@lm6424]

5 mile marathon? Marathon is not a catch all term for any length of running... It's literally a specific length 26.1 miles or 42.2km.

[@stylewithjoy]

@@lm6424 seriously? smh 🙄hope this made your day brighter smh lol because this was beyond unnecessary. if you were trying to make a point it definitely miss the mark because of the way you decide to comment on my comment. that also if I think about it wasn't something I was asking or stating to you. smh guess this what they mean by trolling 🤔

[@louisashakespierian1204]

Hey, really enjoying your channel, I was actually getting back into serious fitness, but still, the biggest race I've done is a 5k... with longer runs during practice; but jw, Noone's ever told, I've heard that for some longer races you get to take breaks.! Do you know what distance that allowance for like bathroom breaks and snacks that starts at or at least isn't frowned upon at????

[@jasmincoffee3253]

I always wanted to listen to music, but you have to be used to breathe the correct way. When you don't have to think about your breath then go for the music ^^ And I also found out that the genre is important. Always listened to the music I normally listen to in the car and so on, til I found out the only that keeps me going is techno 😂 Thank you for sharing this video :)

[@sonicadevos1230]

You are such an inspiration :D Thank you!

[@AmaO-pj8hj]

Ok I think I’m going to get Hoka’s. I’ve heard such great things about them

[@keevysbeauty]

Recommend cliff blocks to eat during your longer runs. I tried Percy pigs but gave me a stitch 😂

[@maddiej7425]

Hi Holly, which running vest do you use? Thank you!

[@KaraKirtley]

I love this video! Thank you! Although with the food I did not know what a single thing was! I had to google Percy Pigs, I wish we had these here, lol!

[@shana8811]

This was so useful! ☺️

[@hollyb_fitness]

[@johannamaha1118]

[@corinajohnston689]

These tips were so great. Feel really motivated to start running again especially after seeing people do the London marathon. Side note, lolled at you recommending percy pigs 🐷

[@hollyb_fitness]

Ahahahaha I am obsessed with them. You should do it!!

[@siobhanelizabeth8006]

A “how to start weightlifting for toning not bulking” would be interesting. I have no idea… 😅

[@verdivanderwesthuizen576]

Can you help me train for a serious runner want to run a 42km and like to run under 4 hours

[@FirstShay]

Does running worsen pCOS symptoms?

[@amandastansberry7646]

regular running has helped my cycle soooo much

[@christatrebes3745]

Converse 😔😔 Poor thing!!

[@keevysbeauty]

Amazing!! Well done. My boyfriend signed me up in secret for GNR. I literally do not run and other than lockdown mile a day never have. I completed the GNR in September too. First ever run over 5K and it was half marathon 🥲 insane. You did amazing too xx
