Thank you for the food-diet info. I started running in my 30s, and I enjoyed more the long distance running. I am almost age 60 and a grandmother, just started running again. I’m watching all the videos you’ve shared to help me become inspired.

[@SatisfyingWhirlpools]

When I trained for a marathon, I would eat a giant 2/3 lb burger the night before my Saturday long run and it worked really well. One time I ate that, then woke up and did a 20 mile run without even eating breakfast before.

[@gnarmarmilla]

Thank you so much, brother. I really appreciate hearing this from you. Your such an awesome runner, the glory of God is seen in your work. May God bless you and your family.

[@randylazer2894]

Mo...aside from being one of the very fastest for the entire history of mankind, you are an absolutely great guy, and I appreciate your sharing to help the rest of us live and run even better.

[@adnanbajic5256]

Just watched this, thank you for the insight Mo. One question I have, which I think you could answer, is, how do you structure your training during Ramadan, do you adapt to fasting or do you make up for the fasting in the off-season? Cheers.

[@angeladenise1407]

Thanks for that. I found it really tricky to think of what to have after a workout since it's quite vital to get it right. Nice to hear you have a sweet tooth as well

Bestest runner of world

[@emilkoch4098]

Mo Farah needs to be featured by ESPN on a piece or two. Eliud Kipchoge as well. Cool video. I've done 5 marathons, I'm currently getting ready for the Chicago Marathon next year. I wish I could eat a big meal like Mo and then go run after, he's got really good genetics. For me my pre-race meal consists of at 3:00 a.m. is 3-4 slices of pizza, 3 cups of coffee, 2 sugar free energy drinks, 2-3 G2 gatorades. I try to give myself a 4 hour window for the digestion that by 7:00 a.m. all the food I ate will be ready for energy. I know Pizza is not the healthiest or the easiest option on my stomach but that's what worked for me. When I'm on the road to do some of the Marathons in a hotel room with no kitchen I just order Pizza the night before. I can't binge eat the night before like a lot of runners can because I know I'll get hungry mid way through the race. Idk how they do it anyway and not get hungry. More power to them.

[@jackson8750]

Mo is the man

[@calihaji5351]

Hi mo you are the greatest runner

[@georgemorley1029]

Well, that’s more or less what I eat. Toast with jam, coffee for breakfast, lunch is rice with fish and fruit, dinner could be spag bol, chicken and rice, etc. I think my diet’s quite nice but I could do with eating less red meat. I like running around 5k at low pace and I feel good, keep my weight down nicely. Mo seems like such a nice humble guy.

[@ln5747]

Red meat is the healthiest food on the planet. You've been brainwashed, unfortunately.

[@kobeabelshausen4495]

You’re A LEGEND

[@sachinoli2084]

Nice exercise Farah sir .. i am motivated to see your videos thanks for this videos

[@jimmythisvideorockshernand3519]

You are amazing Mo Farah if I was to eat for 25 minutes or even 30 minutes before running I would get a stomach cramp. It is unfortunate that is just how my body works.

[@-guitarhero]

I see, I should be grateful to god that I never puke or have stomach cramps, I directly eat before running. High intensity sessions too

[@jimmythisvideorockshernand3519]

@@-guitarhero Yes that is very lucky that you do not get any stomach cramps during high intensity workouts

[@Bashir000]

Depends on the size of the meal. I think moe eats small meals before a run

Blood transfusion from higher altitude will work better

[@TheFreakazoid93]

You realize you're judging the diet of one of the best distance runners of all time? Reminds me of those guys who were correcting Usain Bolt's strength training techniques in one video, really? Don't try to fix something that ain't broken... These guys know what they're doing, and I'm sure they have some kind of nutritional specialists behind them, along with physiotherapists etc to keep them on top of the game. Their bodies go through immense training and stress, and they need the right fuel to recover from the damage that's happening. And plant based diet just won't cover that, end of story.

[@tedallison6112]

Everyone human being is an experiment of one. General principles often apply across the board however training specificity dictates nutritional needs. There's no absolutes.Period.

[@TheBaldyheed]

Many of the ultra marathon runners are vegan, Scott Jurek is probably the Greatest ultra marathon runner ever and he is a staunch vegan. I agreed with everything you said up until your comment about the vegan diet. I'm a meat eater myself

[@BSWANN434]

Ultimately just find what works for you.

[@jonathanhole2972]

Well, you're last sentence is quite incorrect. Almost all Kenyan runners eat a plant based diet. Not much meat

[@stevenb3601]

Mo, what's the importance of staying flexable? What stretches do you do daily.

[@dennisz1799]

Steven Brown First step is to gain mobility and then flexibility- if your joint isn't mobile then there is no point in stretching the muscle. Mobility is residual- flexibility is derived from that.

[@DonTHEhandsome1]

Steven Brown he did a video of his stretches and warm ups. He believes dynamic stretches are better than static ones.

[@IantoCannon]

It would be interesting to hear your macros. I.e., roughly how many calories and grams of carbs, protein and fat do you eat each day?

For 800m Running what should be the training program for week and month?

[@chinmayasalinamakki8137]

Mo, I thought you loved frosted mini wheats for breakfast.

[@jameshaney171]

Sound advice. I can't imagine going on a long run on just a couple of pieces of toast with a bit of butter and Nutella. But it works for him obviously.

[@stevenciervo7384]

john guzman I go on long runs for my hs off of just a single banana and a lot of water the night before

[@jameshaney171]

@@stevenciervo7384Don't forget the importance of the protein shake as part of your daily diet. Running tends to destroy muscle tissue, and carbs are not going to rebuild it. Therefore, make it a point to have a protein shake within an hour of completing your long distance workouts. Grilled chicken is an excellent choice.
