Sweat Elite has done it. A Galen Rupp interview where he isn’t defensive. Makes me like Galan a lot more when he seems like a normal guy.

[@Almostoncearunner]

Galen under Mike Smith is the best Galen

[@jojosimsic2458]

Takeaways: -Short easy running after a marathon can aid in recovery. -Hard long runs make a marathoner. -Training at or worse than race conditions is beneficial for the body come race day. -Hydro-treadmill work and other forms of cross training are good supplemental training -Aerobic fitness is aerobic fitness, no matter how it's gained. -Work on maintaining speed and power when getting older, not just endurance & long intervals -Get every benefit out of each workout and analyze + reflect on each one. -Visualize each scenario that could play out weeks before the race. -Social media has its positives but can be a major distraction when trying to stay focused on training. -1000s are hard. I'm excited to see how well Galen does! It's good to know he's in good shape. Wishing him the best of luck and go 🇺🇲!

[@readec.gloeckner5923]

Never say best of luck, there is no luck when racing a marathon . Either you put the mileage in or you don’t. Either you did your speed play or you did not. It’s better to say Best wishes. It’s like adoption of a child, there is no real mom or real dad, it biological mom or dad. These are more politically correct in my opinion.

[@tboss8157]

You know you’re legit when you get the rare Rupp interview haha

[@codywilson9932]

Shiba Inu is the only reliable investment right now

[@donald1886]

This is the kind of information that we don’t get from most youtubers..

[@jamesphilip5272]

@ahoj Gregory That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like Mr MATTHEW SMITH.

[@tomwatt4416]

Trading crypto with Mr MATTEW is life changing moves

[@joy6703]

How do I get connected into this system

[@fieldofsleepcows]

I really enjoyed how passionately Galen spoke about visualization training. Maybe the most fired up I've ever heard him. thanks for the great interview!

[@TheStengso9o]

so well said.

[@rgdos1162]

Sweat elite is raising the bar in the run game. Bravo 👏

[@joelgriffitts1385]

What a treat! A west coast guy who sounds so east coast, no? My favorite part is the end (26:15) when asked about workouts he dreads, and then we hear this belly laugh, like it's the most wonderful topic imaginable. He loves the pain that makes me cry.

[@imrulmazid3557]

He sounds West Coast through and through!

[@TheFODRunner]

This is gold…. What a brilliant interview!

[@IlliniPilot2]

Just like Galen says, slow short running each day the week after a marathon really is helpful. It sounds and feels terrible but my soreness and fatigue are gone so much quicker when I run each day for a few days after the race.

[@seatownfan]

Galen, looking forward to you winning the Chicago Marathon! I think it is proving that marathoners can be elite up to 40.

[@jadoreisfire]

love listening to Galen talk.

[@mitchiedavis42]

I've never been this early on a video, but of course I stop what I'm doing at work and watch

[@Nsamity]

That is true, I hate doing 1ks way more than 800’s. Or even mile repeats tbh

[@cameronmueller]

Lets go! Huge interview!! Love his attitude

[@Purtle28]

Sweet interview, really liked the talk on visualization

[@TheStengso9o]

"An Artist does their best work when they don't know what they are doing"...."Art is largely instinctive.... Instinct based on training and practices." Love what he had to say on visualization and tying it back to racing off reaction. That's what I thought of when he was elaborating on it.

[@MrZoora23]

The goat channel strikes again

[@williamsmith1451]

Hoping he runs well on Sunday! Go Galen! 🏃

[@endokrin7897]

Hey I'm just like Galen Rupp! I take it easy after a marathon! 🤣🤣🤣👍 Something else that helps me recover the week after a marathon is CYCLING. If I were a swimmer, I'd even get to the pool a couple times during recovery. Last marathon, I did this each day: - Marathon - Off (a bit of stretching and rolling) - Easy bike ride, 10 miles (~35 minutes) - Easy bike ride, 15 miles (~50 minutes) - Easy run, 3 miles - Off (stretching and rolling) - Bike ride, moderate pace, high cadence (~90+ RPM) 25 miles - Easy run, 6 miles - Second week was more like a base week. - Third week, I started to get back towards a normal training block for the next race (10k or marathon) Of course, this is what I did, a 46 year old guy who barely breaks 3 hours in a marathon. 🤔😁 Galen probably ran each day, if I understand what he said. He said something about running slow like with "your Grandma". It's hard for me to run, even slowly, the week after a marathon. But it's due to age and recovery speed. 🤗 This interview has changed my opinion of him. It is nice to hear so much from him, when he is usually quiet with the media. Regardless of what I think, he's earned his place in running history! 👌👍✌️

[@Joe-grado]

This is the best running Chanel .

[@gustavogalicia9556]

Sweat elite = 🐐

[@peterw9721]

Amazing interview. Wow this guy is focused!!!

[@IDKDCA]

Loved this!!

[@lucaslittmarck2122]

@16:25 "Still use simulated altitude" That how you know when you have gotten serious about your training. Treadmill in the pool and simulated altitude in the house (:.

[@matthewnegard3344]

It took me a few minutes to understand why they weren’t moving in the ‘video’ lol

[@diskoeric2248]

bro, this is youtube. where we post videos. this is a picture with audio.

[@patrickedwards5804]

So the athletic equivalent of Howard Hughes deigns to open the curtains and let room service in. Now that you have broken the ice with the Hermit of Oregon think there is any chance that the next date could you on a bike and the crunch crunch sound track of a traditional sweat elite joint?

[@ThePhDSpanish]

Came in 2nd, well done

[@rodrigogorosito4206]

wtf...i just finish the podcast in spotify and here we go again....

[@stevocanuck]

he hates social media so much to the point where we cannot even see him in an interview video..

[@waterproof4403]

His instagram hasn't been active since 2012 I think lol

[@stevocanuck]

@@waterproof4403 kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4KviWWZrrB1nck heres an interview with him pre chicago with video.

[@stevocanuck]

@@waterproof4403 also he says in this video that that instagrma isn't even him. it's a fan account. 18:59

[@Llaaaaama]

Paul Chelimo interview please!

[@jamesestey3495]

I’m glad I’m not the only one that dreads K repeats

[@olcaptainahab]

Casey Affleck sure knows a lot about training for marathon

[@gre-ge5dh]

Gave my thumb whiplash clicking this

[@lucaslittmarck2122]

@17:35 Doesn't move, doesn't blink. We can't see the lips... Is it a still picture we are looking at with sound on?? :)

[@seatownfan]

Yes

[@almen0520]

May I suggest that next time you do one of these interviews with just a picture, that you mention that you can use KZbin Music to "watch" this video. We can just let the video play while driving or doing other activities. Great work!

[@seatownfan]

Any chance you have a podcast or is this just posted to KZbin?

[@sweatelite]

Search in your podcast player 😉

[@Tricky850]

social media is filled with negativity, I would not go near it as an athlete either

[@anouar2489]

I dont have a facebook or instagram

[@pixulonjairo]

Amo tanto a galen pero porke xuxa no tiene instagram

[@jacqueslazarus8457]

I’m ur exact bmi and my lungs hurt wen I walk down the street “am I not training “ right Greyson can eat my shorts if I do right every day why does someone have to put me down and I have to live in an evil environment

[@dewylee6441]

The man behind the camera appears!

[@mrharyfrogg]

yee

[@daffaputraharwanto]

I don't like the visual, you should show up the video while podcast, but tx sweat elite

[@ilikeducksable]

Curious if Alberto Salazaar’s name will come up in this, or if that was a precondition for the interview…

[@ilikeducksable]

Update: he didnt come up, they skirted around him near the beginning talking about his past training. Can’t really blame the interviewer, the questions were likely all prescreened by Nike, and if he did ask about it he’d never get a big interview again. Just the sad state of access journalism. We can’t expect everyone to ask the tough questions, or else they wouldn’t be tough.

galen has always been a strange person, is he scared of a camera?
