Idk if u have any clue of how happy the runners of the world are of having a Olympic marathoner doing these incredible videos. In the name of all runners HUGE THANK YOU ❤

[@stephenscullion262]

that's very kind

[@LeePrice82]

​@@stephenscullion262 what do you do at the start of an easy run. I know you do the above for intense workouts. But what about easy days? I ask because when I get outta bed for a morning run I go straight out the door, my whole body is stiff and I move like Frankenstein for about half a mile. Takes about 1-2 miles until I can reach cruising altitude :) and I don't mean a solid tempo or threshold pace. I mean a pace that would be my comfortable loose run if I left my run until a few hours after I woke up. Do you jog a bit, stretch a bit, then resume running. I ask because I'm not convinced stretching when I've just opened my eyes is a much better plan?

[@bradmosen9008]

I needed this! Tighter than a nuns.....19k yesterday, feeling it...complete amateur! Loving the content though, learning lots. Back into the podcasts soon?

[@aaronbr2001]

You have a talent for making interesting videos and the content is better than other running channels 👍🏼

[@alanshrimpton6787]

Yep. Another one saved to watch later again.

[@michaelpratt11]

Thanks mate! Loving all this content. Soaking it up and noticing slow improvements as I implement your advice.

[@jonathanwatkins447]

Great video. Such good info for me to hear. Love it. Saw your talk with Nick. Was great to see u 2. Keep up the great work and information you pass on to us

[@brycegladdish]

LOVE the intro. You would make a good motivational video like the channels motiversity or 3wheels.

[@ionutmanolache9879]

Great video once again, thank you Stephen.

[@stephenrobinson4449]

Great content and important opening! So true! Thank you! Keep going!!!

[@atuffcrowd]

Man I love this channel

[@gauravsahu272]

Hi Stephen, Thank you so much for the great video. I watched it right before going for my first interval session in quite a few months, and it helped me soo much! Even just watching you helped me with visualization during the session. Hope my heartfelt regards reach you!

[@mirser4912]

As a psychologist I absolutely love the intro! So well said!👍

[@ab4211]

Top video.

[@richardparis8738]

Beautiful scenery

[@deanhoward7534]

Runnings hard. Love your stuff brother

[@garystanley3966]

We all have that 1 critique so true hehe but mine isnt my internal dialougue mines a certian member of my family always saying you can't do it 😂🤣 prove them wrong and they won't accept it 🤣🤣 i luv them haters thanks for the consistancy in your uploads mr stephen scullion! 😎🙌 if my runs where as consistant as your uploads i'm sure i would be an olympian myself but thanks for the content and please ignore my spelling real bad grammer peeps.

[@dasdWARf]

Interesting, will try this instead of the 200m on 200off Daniëls workout I've been doing.

[@wodenravens]

Late to the party here but love your content mate. Keep it up.

[@AncoraImparoPiper]

None of my training plans that I've purchased from reputable coaches include warm ups of this length. All of them are just 10 min of light jog and then get into it. I always felt I need far longer than just 10 min very easy run; I need around 20 to 30 min of easy run at the very least. Now I'm learning from you, Stephen, that I was at least partly right but that I also need to do more during the warm up. I guess that ups my training time which can be a challenging thing for a non-competition runner who simply wants to run faster 10ks and then 3:30 marathons. I need to review my training plans/sessions and include this warm up at the very least for the speed/interval sessions.

[@irishboy70]

What races have you lined up in the coming months?

[@marcwaddingham3091]

Sounds a good session...what pace is your 90 recovery?

[@nickvledder]

7:38 you make it look easy 😅

[@apelsinas14]

Tim’s special training.

[@Kelly_Ben]

Oops... I thought my 5 minutes of dynamic warm up and 10 minutes of jogging was all the warm up I needed for "speed" work... thanks for the info!

[@stevenicholls7863]

Hey Stephen. Could you tell me if its important to do a warm up run before a slow long run or would you just do some activity work only. My easy slow pace is 6.30/km. Thanks

[@nickmoore5105]

I can’t answer for Stephen but in general no warmup run is needed before an easy long run. But start a little under your target pace use the first mile to ease into it.

[@underlecht]

I would highly suggest to at least activate your joints with rotating movements. This not mentioned but helps a lot since joints are the ones that might wear irreparably if not taken care properly

[@mr.h.9103]

Well we now have a new speed day warm up! Lol

[@jjeniece]

Of course my knee is sore, at the beginning of a race week 😢. I just plan on slowing down (aka walking instead of running workouts) and CBD cream to make sure I get to the starting line healthy.

[@Kelly_Ben]

Good luck in your race! The hay is in the barn, you can't get any fitter this week, etc etc. Rest that knee and kill it on race day!

[@alanshrimpton6787]

Haha. Sounds like a phantom pain to me. Your brain is already preparing to save you from what your about to do. Tell it to shut up. Good luck.

[@jjeniece]

@@alanshrimpton6787 😂 I wish it was. I’ve had a couple of knee surgeries so it could def be real.

[@13oXeR84]

Time stamps would be nice
