Jake Riley - 5 x 1 Mile Repeats on Monarch Road

[@ronbunn1349]

Thank you for letting us hear the raw sounds of Jake breathing and feet hitting the ground, without adding obnoxious music like other running videos do.

[@AnthonyMcqueen1987]

Stupid music and a idiots spewing out motivational nonsense is not running.

[@lukenorth7127]

I second both of the previous comments. Thanks to Sweat Elite, people can hear how elite runners breathe in a certain rhythm at a certain effort range. You would never know watching Flotrack stuff.

"four fourty...you sexy SOB" lol Lee is awesome. He is great in the boulder community!

[@johansvensson9586]

This is CONTENT!

[@Blittsplitt5]

"The best workout anyone's ever done" If that's not the most hype and motivating shit I've ever heard a coach say, IDK what is.

[@AnthonyMcqueen1987]

Distance running is the most mentally taxing sports out there. He looks in great shape i would not expect nothing less from a olympian.

[@tylerstogsdill]

There’s something about seeing people do something that no one but a runner can understand that makes this great.

[@tomekb4gin5ki]

Go, Jake! Always cheerful and positive. Such a nice guy to follow.

[@kofuzi]

Putting in work!

[@charliewatkins4571]

Full sun, dirt road. 4:26 on repeat #5. This guy is 155lbs. Amazing.

[@tatlerr]

presumably you mean he is heavy yeah? What would be a more optimum weight for him at 5 ft 11?

[@NTavo]

@@tatlerr Interestingly enough Ryan Hall who holds the half marathon American world record, came out with a short video talking about running and weight. He predicted that if he was around 152 - 157 he would probably be able to run a 2:17 - 2:18 marathon. Most marathon runners at the olympic level are going to be in the 120 - 130 range and at the high end be around 140.

[@AnthonyMcqueen1987]

He is a Olympian I would not expect nothing less.

[@lukenorth7127]

@@tatlerr The rule of thumb for the ideal race weight for male distance runners is your height in inches, multiplied by 2 pounds per inch, plus or minus 10 pounds. Under that formula, a man who is 5’11” should be no heavier than 152. There are exceptions of course. Exhibit A: Chris Solinsky.

[@josephkubiak308]

Lee troop! A character! Full of fun "You're in the zone. Auto zone" 🤣

[@eden8131]

Great video! love seeing elite while training.

[@seanthadondontcom]

The one person who disliked this needs to go for a run.

[@Carlosediaz543]

These is an insane workout. 2 mins rest as well. Great stuff Jake. Also those on cloud boom echo’s lookin sick.

[@Mrwoddle]

The runners high is real, great job on the session!

[@junalberca361]

He seems like a really nice guy. Hoping for future success

[@mtldragon9860]

I find the 5-6x4-5min intervals to be a great bang for buck in terms of vO2 improvement. They suck though. I remember so many days going to work and thinking "I am going to pass out sometime today." Still, can't argue with results. Adding these to the season propelled me to several 10k and half marathon wins.

[@randyevermore9323]

My HS x-country coach had us run 5 x 1 mile on our cinder track every Monday during the season. At the start of the season, we were given 9 min to run the mile and rest before starting the next one. The rest was reduced each week, so by the end of the season we had 7 min to run the mile and rest. I ended up averaging 4:52 by the end of the season and was probably in the best shape of my life, even better than in college. Those max VO2 workouts are indeed mentally brutal but so effective.

[@TheFODRunner]

Fantastic workout! Insane paces

[@cicirunner]

We would be lucky to hang on for one rep!

[@TheFODRunner]

@@cicirunner I couldn’t even manage half a rep 😂

[@T1MB05L1C3]

“You sexy son of a bitch” Never though I’d hear a coach say that lol

this guy is a beast

[@Wehttam96]

What a workout. I love this

[@tropicallyfit]

I love watching these... it makes me want to RUN!! 🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️🏃‍♀️

Congrats on the Channel

Amazing Content! Hopefully to watch more videos like this one!

Great workout. Will try it later

[@tkrpclips8363]

This is fire keep grinding!!

[@OreMan]

Nice workout, because it's so tough! :) So harder we train, the greater the feeling in the race is, right? Cool stuff! Good job making the video! 👍

[@thegreatalyssa]

Wow! That was a great workout.

Unreal. Amazing 👏

we need more videos!!!!!

[@sweatelite]

they are coming!

[@marcusrommel6215]

Beautiful. Thsnk you

[@JackD87]

Is it me or does Jake carry more muscle than your average distance runner? Seen a few of his videos pop up on Sweat Elite and he looks more like a 400m runner to me, aesthetically.

[@tylerwiese3919]

what a beast!

[@Warriors_and_Wanderers]

Insane form!! 🙌🏻🔥🔥

[@RealStrategyGamingClassics]

The coach explaining the workout plan is good because its difficult to hear a coach that knows what hes talking about anywhere. Also i think he needs teammates to try to win the gold? I mean team running always helps and these elite americans running alone. This is not like diving or doing flips this is a serious sport where you got to be top of 8 billion people fighting extreme odds and statistics and racing vs incredible east-african runners. Hope he wins though.

[@a6beats221]

you can thank all these brands for that. :/ absolutely agree w you

[@randyevermore9323]

Then again, Lasse Viren mostly trained alone. So did Sebastian Coe, for the most part. I think it has some advantages, like allowing you to concentrate on your form, cadence, and relaxation, rather than thinking about where you stand in relation to others.

[@thuggoe]

he get's so much power from his core

[@angelantoniogarciaegido7534]

Brutal así se corre mucha suerte en las olimpiadas

[@blackvitruvianman]

I hate mile repeats, damn they hurt so good!

[@thewayoflife2700]

Looking good! Wondering about that shoe.... If you add a couple minutes each, I could do this!

[@brooklynbound1000]

I would need a week between each set!

[@nicksacco5041]

Awesome vid. Thanks for sharing this. He makes running sub 5 miles easy but it’s not

[@JoshLruns]

I need some dirt roads like this in Ohio!

[@crazymusicman13]

10:51

[@randyevermore9323]

Cadence seems to be critical. His was around 204 strides/min on the last rep, by my count. It's pretty hard to overstride when you're turning them over at that rate.

[@MrNerdchen]

Could zou ply add the time in km aswell_-? for the european runners :)

[@rescuedfriendsanimalsanctu8481]

I've ran that road many of times

[@yankaitan8648]

Cloudboom v2??? Lookin' way more promising than the first one

[@ZetaTango83]

ECHO just released in sg

[@rz9wb]

Are these 30sec/mile faster than 5k or how fast?

[@Throp]

Where'd he go? He just ran off into the sunset

[@javiersoong2647]

Whats the rest between sets?

[@towiva]

2 mins

[@samwhite119]

What a handsome duo

[@tudonobras6344]

Parabéns. Ótimo treino. Aqui Fabio Brasil. .

What shoes does he have?

[@i_would_but_i_wont]

How often does he do this workout?

[@rossfripp4503]

What was the recovery between the reps? Don't think I caught it! Cheers.

[@stephenburke8493]

Wasn’t written explicitly but I think they said 2 minutes after the first rep.

[@Emeranux]

Damnnnn

[@HardTrue]

how often?

[@keeprunning5457]

cant say i like his form but he is super fast muy rapido

[@UenoLocker54]

Tough.

[@tatlerr]

Do those shoes have a carbon fiber plate, and if not why wouldnt he use shoes with the plate?

[@Blittsplitt5]

Have the organizations ruled on whether they're allowed or not?

[@tatlerr]

@@Blittsplitt5 as far as I know vapour flys are legal. I'm not sure what body/org gets to decide

[@leetroop73]

The shoes does have a carbon plan. The ON Cloud Echo Boom.

[@Pola509]

This guy would smoke Nickbare ;O

[@BleakVision]

Lol the Olympics are on right now but I can't bother to watch.

[@a6beats221]

I am by no means even close to your level of running but I noticed you looked super tense around your neck and upper body. Just something I noticed (:

[@benvanderbosch8589]

He's a marathon guy so this is pretty short for him. Could be why.

[@charlessharp4537]

Burn Some Carbs

[@jameschaves5723]

I'm failing to see the WOW factor here. 5 x mile isn't that much volume!! Ok so the pace is honest but 5 miles @ 4:45?? Maybe 10 x mile is something impressive

[@liamhowgate4022]

It's not huge volume, but the short recovery will mean that his heart-rate doesn't drop too much. It's an uptempo workout so lactic will accumulate quickly

[@leetroop73]

I’m not a wow factor coach. We wouldn’t do 10 x 1 mile, 20 x 1K or 40 x 400m; because Jake’s volume comes from his 22 mile run every Sunday. Our workouts are simple “bread and butter” workouts.

[@matthewpainter9759]

@@leetroop73 does he run 7 days a week?

[@leetroop73]

@@matthewpainter9759 he runs everyday and does a double run x 5 times a week.
