It took 3 years for me to run 13 miles, i try to remember that when I feel down about how long it takes me to complete it. It could be another 3 years before I do it faster lol i just started being able to do it. 😊

Not looking like a shaved bird definitely makes me want to work out... 😂 Love it!!

One of the best advice videos I've seen in quite some time. Nothing new, just great reminders. Good humor throughout as well. Props on the new world record 🤣

Saw your group video on today’s team marathon on Strava. Congratulations to you and Mary on your second place finish. 🎉

Regarding injuries: My friend complained about me getting injured repeatedly in disc golf and always coming back throwing farther. Multiple things cobtributed to this: Rehab, studying technique farther, resting to be at 100 %, which disc golfers are only at season start. You decide how you come out of an injury as long as your injuries are recoverable.

You surely revolutionised cinema with this top down framing with the camera anchored on your forehead. 😂

Great video! Loved it :) one thing I wanted to say: Mary said in one of the videos I watched that she doesn’t like to see herself running - I absolutely love it, Mary, it looks so effortless ❤ You both are so inspiring 💪 Thank you for the great content, helps me so much in my running journey

1. Take Mary's time. 2. It's pretty fast. I was at the track one night when a few young kids came with their girls. They looked fit (not overweight- normal kids). They sprinted a couple of times for the girls. I clocked them at 16 something. It felt good that I was probably within one second of their time despite being mit 50s, new to running and hadn't done any real anaerobic workout.

Interesting video Ben. Just an observation on your squats - the foam accessory is for hip thrusts. For squats you need to bed the bar itself properly across your scapulas for high bar squat. The foam makes it difficult to do that.

1:30 I'd add that improvements aren't always linear.

This video provides some great perspective. Thank you.

🏃🏻‍♂️💨 well done in your sprint and great video!

[cuberstu]

👍 You looked like Francis Bourgeois running for a train! 🤣

Jamaican and African sprinters train endurance running before they start sprinting ..unlike most American sprinters that work on different phases of the sprint...Bolt started out as a miler but quickly found out his talent was in shorter races.despite his desire to be a miler...I honestly believe that longer distance running equates to the sprints because you have more endurance to carry you through the race and knowledge of pace and you can work on the phases of the race later...some of the best 200 meter runners become the best 100 meter sprinters . endurance is an important ability.., especially when you have multiple heats and many false starts ..when this happens many sprinters fall apart but those with endurance experience persevere.and have the best times

I assume you will do it in 10 seconds because you’re a beast !!

[FitDoc]

7 years for me to get to 3:02 marathon. Well said!

How come you're always alone in the GYM? Is it a private gym?

[Kelly_Ben]

Great video!! I've been running for years, but I'm still confused by the concept of peaking. I get that it's that peak of fitness you want for a race, but how do you actually know you're there, what does it look/ feel like, and how do you time it for a race?

[JanneRasanen]

Ben started upright, no biggie just start the clock late and finish early: WR. 😅 Now finish 4 seconds off the Marathon WR 😂

Do other things to strengthen. Weights suck! 😂 Stand Up Paddle Boarding works your whole body and is fun!!!
