I'm 45, 6' 2", 290lbs. I found your channel last week and have watched several videos since. My girlfriend, 13 years younger than me, started running a about a year and a half ago. I do walk with her sometimes, but found that I hated walking, it hurt my feet and back and just wasn't pleasant. I half ass the gym a few times a week. But when I watched your videos last weekend, it struck a chord, I went to the local shoe expert store where they scanned my feet for fitting proper shoes and found I have a high arched right foot and am a heel striker, which explained the cause of the discomfort with walking. I now have a proper pair of shoes and a desire to be better. I walked 5 out of 7 days last week for 10 miles total, and plan to keep that up, increasing my distance weekly, and ultimately breaking a 10 minute mile, and further from there. I'm currently at about 16 minutes per mile. At any rate, thank you for the inspiration, love what you're doing, I'll stop rambling now. 😎 Cheers from the USA, Kevin.

Your videos inspire me so much. My Parkrun PB yesterday was 27:53. Today, at a pacer event I obliterated it and came in at 26:08. At the 1.5km mark I was thinking to myself, "this is too fast." But I hunkered in and just kept going, hanging onto the back (about 5 metres away) of the 26 minute pacer. My goal was to get sub 27 minutes. The pacer stopped with 1km to go just before the slight hill, I think he injured himself. But I understood the pace and my watch said 21 something. I got about 200 metres out and looked down at my watch at saw it said 25 something. I was far too gassed to notice what the actual time was, but I thought to myself, "I might be able to get sub 26 here!" So I picked up the pace and absolutely caned it, overtaking about 15 people (my fastest pace recorded at 2:30/km). I honestly don't know where I pulled it out from, but my efforts meant that not only did I reach my goal of a sub 27, I absolutely smashed it and nearly got sub 26! I wouldn't have even started running 4 months ago if it wasn't for you, let alone trying to set PBs. All I want to say is thank you 🙂.

@austinado162 жыл бұрын
LOL Mark!!! Firstly, Jenna is LEGEND. Can't wait to see her pull off the inevitable phoenix. I think you performed great at Hyrox. Your training was dialed in. You had a very motivational goal. And based on Jenna's footage, and that bit of B-Roll at the end, you literally wrecked yourself and keep a fire lit. Absolutely fantastic job!! I don't know if this will help your running, but I'll offer it anyway; instead of having your arms at an L shape, and sort of swinging low with open hands, try a slightly V shaped arm, have your hands in a very relaxed, but open "fist" shape, and place your thumbnail between your first and middle finger. Then swing your arms to a height that places your thumbs just below your nipple line, and have your arm swing at an angle, so that your hands wind up (in the forward-most part of the swing) about inline with your ears/cheek bones. Hopefully that all makes sense. It's a more natural, relaxed, and much more efficient arm movement, and of course your hands are made to swing up higher on your body, the faster you are attempting to run. Your current arm swing is pretty stiff, not helping with knee lift, knee drive, and using muscle energy for not much benefit. Please don't listen to the people crying because you're different from their mediocre, lazy asses. The same "noise" is heard here, all over the US, and it starts in the grade schools, with children putting other children down, who are better at something, be it art, music, athletics, scholastics, etc. It's magnified 10 fold in the high schools, and oh look...here it is on YT as well. Clearly, you have absolutely worked your ass off, in all manner of what it takes to transition from where you were, to where you are. You've been beating on yourself mentally and physically for over a decade, and you clearly are not dialing it back any time soon. You don't owe ANYONE an explanation for your success. I wish you WOULD go to Vegas-Baby, and just hit it hard. I think that would be a great finale to this current stage of fitness, and with a slight break/taper in training, and freshly schooled in how you can do the coarse better, I think you may legitimately hit a 67. One last thing; If you haven't tried Liquid I.V. Energy Multiplier, and drop a couple magnesium tablets into it, you may find it worthy.

I am so appreciative of this video for a few reasons: 1. Your honesty with feeling defeated and trying to stay motivated when you knew you were going to fall short. Why? This weekend I had a goal to beat my co-worker’s 2019 half-marathon time. My theory was: maintain an 8:50 pace on my Garmin. Start with the 1:50 pace group, and if I never got passed by 1:55 group, I have succeeded. I did both of those, however my overall time on course measurement was an 8:56 pace, putting me at 1:56:58. Still OK but far off my goal of sub 1:55:30. Beating myself up now even though I wasn’t even sure I could COMPLETE a half back in January. 2. Bringing Jenna on as a “project”. I have ofter thought “I wish Mark would have recorded his progression”. It will be fun and helpful to watch someone in “real time” even though she has already done some pretty Above Average activities. 3. Lastly, don’t feel “guilty” to those who feel you have climbed too high. We must always look for something to aspire to. I believe your early struggles and I see your current heights as a bar to reach for. After all, I am 42 and doing half-marathons. By the time I reach your age, who knows😜

I do somewhat agree that you might be well above average. But more in the sense of preparation: you do some very specific things to prepare that most people wouldn't do. When I think of the average person I think of someone who does not put much thought into their triathlon transition for example. Whereas you (and myself too) are more the type of person to look up what people who are good at it, and try to get some gains there: open up your running shoes, mount shoes to bike, lay helmet down on its top .. etc.

Good stuff, as always. What I enjoy most is the tactical discussions and post-mortem on what worked and didn't. Don't get too hung up on remaining true to the "above average" motto. Your fundamental point is just that to be at the pinnacle of a sport, you have to focus on it to the detriment of others, (apart from the ludicrous time commitment etc.) You are vastly above average at almost anything physical -- and still getting faster -- but this doesn't invalidate the point of your KZbin videos. You still inspire people to compete, to compete seriously, and to be smart about it.

Running my first Hyrox in 5 days, about 140 days after learning what Hyrox even is. Won't come even close to your times but I'm crossing that damned finish line.

First video of yours I have watched. I like your perspective. I am just starting to document my fitness journey to show that you can accomplish lots of things at any level.
