Thank you so much for saying this. I really appreciate it and it’s such a nice thing to say! Honestly, my best friend ran 2:09 in 1999 and I got to watch him grow into that from age 10, so while I may be faster than some, I definitely know I’m nowhere near that level! I like to say “at least I won’t lose my Nike sponsorship”! I love taking it seriously. But I definitely never want to take myself too seriously. :)

I love this channel. I am a runner and I think reasonable for 63 (37 km trail race, 25 min 5km and can run hills, at altitude I live at 1300m, with a pretty low heart rate) but I am not in Global Runner's league but I still find these videos incredibly inspirational. I cannot wait to hear how the Montreal Marathon goes. I very much hope that you achieve it. What I find odd is that you don't have more (many more) followers and more views. The videos are so well done, interesting and relatable. I can only assume it is an algorithm thing and that Google doesn't "like" the videos. Best of luck for Montreal.

I was in Canmore in Sept 2022 preparing to go on an 8-day trek with Yamnuska Mountain Adventures. It was a great trek over to Mt Assiniboine wrapping up at Mt Shark Trailhead. I had a chance to run a few KMs down the Bow Valley highway from my Air BnB before we headed out. Canmore is an awesome place to run and of course train. It has been fun watching your training. As a running coach, I have taken many notes from these vids. My client runs Sydney next week and Chicago in October where we're aiming for a 2:45. (Sydney will be more of a checkpoint run) Well done in this race!

I can confirm that crushed gravel will cost you seconds per KM in carbon fiber shoes. My home course marathon is part pavement part crushed gravel trail and in the last 10k, I spent 4km on crushed gravel at 333W at 4:33/km and the last 6km on pavement was also 333W but 4:27/km. Same overall effort HUGE difference in speed. I can't wait to run Chicago in a few weeks on all pavement and flat surfaces. Last October I ran Valley Harvest in Wolfville N.S. where there was 5k, 10k, half, full and 50k Ultra...and the trail sections there were CRAZY with the congestion. I will never run another marathon on narrow trails again, and I will never RACE another marathon on partial trail surfaces again. For fun or as a pacer, sure...but now that I have the data why give away all that time for nothing, unless it's some crazy net downhill like Marathon P’tit Train du Nord. Go execute at Montreal, be in the moment, and let the results be what they will be.

@@global-runnerDo not want to be pessimistic, but your recent race results don't look way encouraging. Probably this is because of your recent injury, or you simply did not race at full strength.

@global-runner 3 ай бұрын

That’s interesting and no problem being realistic! That’s not pessimistic. I do think I was faster 2-3 months ago (you’re referencing the 16:22 5k, right?) so would probably have run a faster 10k or half back then but I definitely didn’t have the long runs and the marathon paced runs that I have now. You’re right that the injury impacted the amount of miles I could do but that’s part of it I guess - limited by an ageing body! :) Interestingly I have often had a feeling that I peak too early in my build. Maybe I need less time to build? Either way, nothing to do but taper now and give it everything on the day!

It definitely would be. Less of a factor than in longer events I think but it is definitely slower up here (which of course is a positive for Montreal)

@robidoo99 3 ай бұрын

@@global-runner I googled "training at altitude 5000 feet" and top hit (based on Jack Daniels findings) suggests about 8-10secs/mile slower at 5000 feet. With gravel ~30 secs overall it makes your time more like 33min flat. Which I think puts you right in the slot for breaking 2:30, I think it will be quite close but definitely within your grasp. Something I did differently in my last marathon which I felt helped me to control my pace (windy course in places) was keeping current and last mile pace showing on my watch. Depends if the GPS signal is accurate though, there's parts of Chicago and London courses where that would be worse than useless! Look forward to seeing your result

@robidoo99 3 ай бұрын
