Brilliantly made video. And Luis Orta, you are a rock star. The passion and the honesty just shines through

[@bpetersson5024]

really impressive on all levels, particular the honesty and mental approach...great work!

[@ortaluis]

Thank you Russa! It means a lot.

[@mtn_techne]

Thank you so much for watching!

[@eliaslopez3393]

30:11 in that high of Altitude is still amazing!

[@ortaluis]

Thank you 🙏

[@Mike-cs9jr]

It may have felt like forever, but in competition and enough other runners of similar ability you can absolutely run sub-30 at altitude. You were partially solo so getting that close was very impressive and being able to muster a 2:55 final K makes it a certainty. Good job brother.

[@ortaluis]

Thank you and yes I feel like if I tried again I can dip under 30!

[@RunningRefresh]

Luis is so inspiring with his consistency and dedication to the sport. 👏

[@ortaluis]

Thank you!

[@keithkilgorejr5100]

This video is amazing. The commentary really makes the video. All of us runners get negative but getting outta that mindset is what makes the great ones. Thanks for the video. Great motivation here

[@mtn_techne]

Thank you for watching! 🙏🏻

[@ortaluis]

Thank you for watching!

[@manosdrako]

Superb effort especially for the last km finish! On IG I had predicted 30:25 because I believed altitude would have its go a little harder! I was 1”/km off but you did great!! I hope you manage to break the NR!! Good luck!!

[@ortaluis]

Thank you! You were pretty close in your time estimate

[@raregoodds3143]

"and the end result was 30.11" lol thats insane. I would be happy to run that as a 5km split

[@ortaluis]

You can do it!!

[@yogeshdahale4660]

I did it in 22 but I think I can do 20 min

[@Dan_South]

Incredible video. Nice to hear you talk about the workout afterwords. Not many of us say things relative to "if you're trying to break a national record." Good to hear your perspective.

[@ortaluis]

Thank you Dan! It's challenging but always giving it my all

[@mtn_techne]

Thanks for watching! 🤙🏻

[@simeonbobekov5038]

Bro, you are such a motivation for me, love this type of videos! Keep going!

[@ortaluis]

Thank you!

[@gzfashions]

Love that effort at the end bro! Great stuff!!

[@ortaluis]

Giving my all until the last seconds! thank you

[@gzfashions]

@@ortaluis absolutely man, I know you wanted to keep all KMs at 3 min flat but yeah bro I think going 3’ 05” down to 2’ 54” throughout the run probably would have gotten you the result! I’m sure you’ll get it next time and that elevation is no joke! I used to live closer to (Virginia Tech) Blacksburg area and although we aren’t a mile in the sky the elevation is still close to 3000 feet in some areas and I definitely could tell it was harder to run in those conditions. I have been measuring my V O 2 Max recently and that has been an interesting fitness measure.

[@richardvanliessum4346]

Awesome to see well executed running styles. What a effort 👌🏻

[@ortaluis]

Thank you 🙏

[@hiwotalemu2815]

You are the special coach. Keep it up

[@ortaluis]

I appreciate that! Thank you for those kind words

[@user-vr3vl1fj8d]

Wow! 3 minutes and 1 second low AVERAGE per kilometre! That’s amazing pace! Congratulations! This is definitely elite pace!

[@ortaluis]

Thanks!

[@aransan8]

Excelente Luis, gran video, gran entrenamiento y se entiende perfecto la parte de saber que fue un buen esfuerzo pero quedarte a un paso del objetivo que buscas. Ojalá puedas venir a México aquí tienes grandes atletas como Roberto, Raúl y Juan José y seguro correr a 2500 mts de altura será un gran reto. Felicidades!

[@ortaluis]

[@davidjfoleycomposer]

Great video, very helpful to hear your km-by-km thoughts and strategies. I'm running my own 10K time trial this week, I was wondering what your warm-up/cooldown routine was on the day? And did you have easy runs the day before/after, or rest days? Thanks!

[@ortaluis]

5k easy jog for warm up, drills and strides + 1k at pace before the TT … cool down like 3k easy and yes an easy run the day before!

[@goddard976]

[@stuartwalker6786]

Do you think the spikes helped or hindered with the pace?

[@ortaluis]

Spikes definitely help! thank you for watching

Very good. it is very difficult to run at 3 min/km. From Brazil.

[@jordanrundell9962]

Excellent stuff Luis! I notice that you are definitely a cadence runner. Have you or your coach ever explored to lower your cadence and increase stride length? Just curious.

[@ortaluis]

Hey! Not really, it is something I should be focusing a bit more yeah!

[@juanpabloponce2233]

Buenísimo Luis!!! Yo corro ahora en Quito, altura de 2850 mts 🥵 pero bien, te adaptas.

La altura es durisima, pero ahi vamos!

Hi! I would love to know at what heart rate you are running these really fast 10ks at. When I’m trying to go for a really fast run („for me fast“) my heart is going to 190 sometimes. I need to try 5 and 10k on a track soon because on my runs I always have some altitude which make my heartbeat go up so fast. Really fun to watch these videos btw :)

[@ortaluis]

I don't check my hear rate! Thank you for watching

[@user-um4tq9sn3n]

Sir you are best runner 🏃❤️

[@ortaluis]

Thank you! I appreciate it

[@taylandag4025]

Running 2:17 marathon doesn’t mean you can run under 30 min in 10k. If you prepare marathon you prepare marathon. So the parameters are diffirent.

[@ortaluis]

I have a 28:32 10k time! You?

[@shawnmand5607]

What race are you training for? Sorry, I'm new to the channel

[@ortaluis]

Copenhague half marathon

[@runfargetlost991]

10k 30:11 at 10,000 elevation! WOW!

[@ortaluis]

😅

[@esotericpig]

How often do you do a time trial like this? I usually do it every 3 months just to see where my fitness is at, but wasn't sure if I'm doing it too often or too little.

[@JoshL84]

What is your recovery like after an effort like this?

[@ortaluis]

I just started running but what is best to do so I can keep myself running long term like this ?

[@ortaluis]

Consistency and patience! Keep it up

[@nillsx]

How much would you credit your speed to trackwork? I have never tried but run for a decade.

[@ortaluis]

Thank you for the question! I would say it's important to log in track workouts in your training, it definitely gives you speed and activates those fast twitch muscle fibers for more intense bursts

[@memoriasgameplays6598]

i train at 2600 meters 😢, In the beach competitions I perform well but I'm dying of heat

[@ortaluis]

Heat and altitude are both tough for sure

[@tsyhll]

I would watch this while on treadmill. If you can make a longer video of just running that would help other treadmill runners feel like running together with you.

[@mtn_techne]

That's a great idea! Maybe next time I'll film the entire TT in one take for something like this!
