Jess, when you started 111 00:06:13,760 --> 00:06:18,440 Speaker 2: running yourself, did you anticipate that it would take on 112 00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: such a major role in your life. 113 00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:23,600 Speaker 1: No, I definitely didn't think it would take on a 114 00:06:23,640 --> 00:06:27,159 Speaker 1: major role. I hated running. I was a track and 115 00:06:27,240 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: field athlete, and I definitely fit the stereotype of the 116 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:35,560 Speaker 1: field athletes, who you know, we will do our drills, 117 00:06:35,640 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 1: and we'll do our strength training, and sometimes we sprint, 118 00:06:38,720 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: but we don't actually enjoy running. So no, if you 119 00:06:42,720 --> 00:06:45,440 Speaker 1: asked me back then that this was going to turn 120 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: into not only my passion but also my career. 121 00:06:48,640 --> 00:06:50,880 Speaker 2: No, yeah, yeah, I mean what I'm hearing you say 122 00:06:50,920 --> 00:06:54,120 Speaker 2: here is that you found a whole new appreciation for 123 00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:57,680 Speaker 2: the sport after beginning and now again, if you're looking 124 00:06:57,880 --> 00:07:00,280 Speaker 2: into the audience, if you're here live, you've impacked so 125 00:07:00,279 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 2: many people, not just here in the New York running community, 126 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,479 Speaker 2: but beyond, and I would say that we're all pretty 127 00:07:05,560 --> 00:07:08,840 Speaker 2: lucky to have you.

It's so you can just, 141 00:07:51,600 --> 00:07:53,680 Speaker 1: I don't know, you can get a bridge run in 142 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,920 Speaker 1: and you get your views without a bunch of nonsense. 143 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 2: Right, And I think the grade on them man and 144 00:08:00,400 --> 00:08:03,560 Speaker 2: Bridge is the least in terms of incline. 145 00:08:03,640 --> 00:08:06,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a nice gradual up, gradual down. 146 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 2: I'm looking for the easiest bridge possible personally. Yeah. Okay, 147 00:08:11,120 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 2: So we have a favorite run, it's the Manhattan Bridge. 148 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:17,080 Speaker 2: But in terms of a type of run, I know, 149 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,720 Speaker 2: I'm talking to an ultrarunner here. 150 00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:20,560 Speaker 3: Do you have a favorite type of run? 151 00:08:21,320 --> 00:08:23,560 Speaker 1: I know this is a I heard they already answered, 152 00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:25,000 Speaker 1: trail trail. 153 00:08:25,160 --> 00:08:26,760 Speaker 3: It's a trail run, bridge is. 154 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,960 Speaker 1: It's trail running, And especially as I get older, I 155 00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:33,679 Speaker 1: feel like trail running you experience a different type of 156 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,959 Speaker 1: sore after, you know, an ultra marathon on trail versus 157 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 1: an ultra marathon on road. And I just really like 158 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:44,959 Speaker 1: trail running because I feel like the more difficult the trail, 159 00:08:45,080 --> 00:08:48,319 Speaker 1: the more difficult the terrain, the more difficult the elevation, 160 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: the more even the playing field. And so I'm not 161 00:08:53,080 --> 00:08:55,359 Speaker 1: a front of the pack runner. I'm not the fastest. 162 00:08:55,440 --> 00:08:58,760 Speaker 1: But if you make a trail run, the harder the better, 163 00:08:58,920 --> 00:09:01,839 Speaker 1: it kind of even the playing field and you can 164 00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,199 Speaker 1: eventually start to hang with some of the front of 165 00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:06,840 Speaker 1: the pack runners because you hit a point where everybody's hiking. 166 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:08,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody's hiking. 167 00:09:08,880 --> 00:09:10,600 Speaker 2: That was something I didn't know right off the bat 168 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,520 Speaker 2: when it came to trail and I'll use the air 169 00:09:12,600 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 2: quotes here if you're not here running, I didn't know 170 00:09:14,960 --> 00:09:18,760 Speaker 2: how much hiking was involved in trail running exactly. 171 00:09:18,800 --> 00:09:22,559 Speaker 1: And yes, it's hiking, it's not walking. That's also hagging. Nope, 172 00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:24,319 Speaker 1: you're never walking on trail. 173 00:09:24,559 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 2: Well, we're talking about trail running one of the types 174 00:09:26,679 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 2: of running here. But another question that came in is 175 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:32,280 Speaker 2: asking about the different types of running that someone should 176 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,120 Speaker 2: be incorporating into their regular routine. 177 00:09:35,360 --> 00:09:40,920 Speaker 1: So what are they jess Okay, so trail running aside 178 00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,680 Speaker 1: the types of running. I feel like no matter who 179 00:09:44,720 --> 00:09:47,400 Speaker 1: you are or where you are in your running journey, 180 00:09:47,400 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: whether you're just getting into running, or you're an elite athlete. 181 00:09:51,240 --> 00:09:54,920 Speaker 1: I think there's certain types of runs that everyone should include, 182 00:09:55,360 --> 00:09:58,600 Speaker 1: and that's your easy run, your speed run, and your 183 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:01,200 Speaker 1: long run. I think we have to include all three 184 00:10:01,200 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: of those, and you know I can't help it. I'm 185 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 1: gonna plug it the Nike Running App. That's why I 186 00:10:06,640 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: created the first batch of runs. It's kind of like 187 00:10:09,720 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: your starter pack of running, and it has your easy run, 188 00:10:13,520 --> 00:10:16,120 Speaker 1: your speed run. It also has a recovery run and 189 00:10:16,280 --> 00:10:19,160 Speaker 1: a long run as well. And so no matter who 190 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:22,520 Speaker 1: you are, even if you are a run walker, there's 191 00:10:22,559 --> 00:10:26,080 Speaker 1: a way to incorporate some speed into your run walk. 192 00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:30,160 Speaker 1: So I think those are the main three different types 193 00:10:30,160 --> 00:10:32,280 Speaker 1: of runs that everybody should start to include. 194 00:10:32,520 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 2: Two things to double click on, the first being that 195 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:38,080 Speaker 2: you just had a new run drop in the Nike 196 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:39,240 Speaker 2: Running App yesterday. 197 00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:39,720 Speaker 3: Is that right? 198 00:10:40,040 --> 00:10:41,000 Speaker 4: That is correct? 199 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: How does that feel for you? 200 00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,320 Speaker 1: I So the next round of guided runs, we're doing 201 00:10:47,320 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 1: it podcast style, So learned a lot from you, Thank you, 202 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:53,800 Speaker 1: So called a podcast called a run cast, called a 203 00:10:53,880 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 1: run and Chat series. So it's still a guided run, 204 00:10:57,520 --> 00:11:01,120 Speaker 1: but I'm interviewing different people through out the series, and 205 00:11:01,280 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: the latest one that dropped, she's in the audience today 206 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,439 Speaker 1: MSS community coach Kim Yee, co captain of Old Man 207 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:09,000 Speaker 1: Run Club. 208 00:11:09,720 --> 00:11:11,640 Speaker 3: We have some applause for Kim Yee. Us. 209 00:11:12,440 --> 00:11:15,400 Speaker 1: This one was uncomfortable because we flipped the script and 210 00:11:15,440 --> 00:11:18,600 Speaker 1: she interviewed me. But the rest of the runs on 211 00:11:18,640 --> 00:11:20,960 Speaker 1: there are amazing because I'm the one doing the interviewing 212 00:11:21,040 --> 00:11:23,320 Speaker 1: and so I love when attention is not on me. 213 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:24,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, we love that. 214 00:11:24,559 --> 00:11:27,480 Speaker 2: And then you were talking about the different types of runs, 215 00:11:27,640 --> 00:11:30,840 Speaker 2: and we talk about intervals or speed. A question that 216 00:11:30,880 --> 00:11:33,880 Speaker 2: often comes up if someone hears that phrase, oh, do 217 00:11:33,960 --> 00:11:36,440 Speaker 2: an interval run or do a speed workout? For someone 218 00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:40,080 Speaker 2: who doesn't know where to begin in that sort of 219 00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:43,200 Speaker 2: thing with some sort of a speed run, what do 220 00:11:43,280 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 2: you tell. 221 00:11:43,600 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 1: Them, I mean, a speed run at the end of 222 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: the day is we're running fast for a bit and 223 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 1: we're recovering for a bit, and we're working on making 224 00:11:51,840 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 1: kind of our top paces even faster. So if you're 225 00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:59,800 Speaker 1: just thinking about raising the bar so that behind that 226 00:12:00,080 --> 00:12:02,160 Speaker 1: not only are your top speeds getting faster, but then 227 00:12:02,200 --> 00:12:04,839 Speaker 1: eventually your easy runs are going to start to get faster, 228 00:12:05,000 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 1: Your recovery runs are going to start to get faster, 229 00:12:06,720 --> 00:12:08,320 Speaker 1: your long runs are going to start to get faster. 230 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:09,520 Speaker 4: So if you're. 231 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:13,160 Speaker 1: Always running easy, then you're always going to be running easy. 232 00:12:13,280 --> 00:12:16,480 Speaker 1: And so we have to stress our bodies in different ways. 233 00:12:16,520 --> 00:12:19,200 Speaker 1: That's why we're doing the interval runs or the speed runs, 234 00:12:19,960 --> 00:12:21,920 Speaker 1: just to stress your body in different ways so that 235 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,240 Speaker 1: you can then adapt to those stresses and then build 236 00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:25,840 Speaker 1: back stronger. 237 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:26,160 Speaker 5: Woo. 238 00:12:26,400 --> 00:12:29,120 Speaker 2: I think the thing that's also really great about adding 239 00:12:29,120 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: in these different types of running to your regular rotation, 240 00:12:32,240 --> 00:12:34,600 Speaker 2: regardless of where you are at in your running journey, 241 00:12:34,640 --> 00:12:36,920 Speaker 2: is it helps not only stay of off boredom, but 242 00:12:37,000 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 2: also mix things up. 243 00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:40,520 Speaker 3: Right. It's nice to mix things up every once in 244 00:12:40,600 --> 00:12:41,000 Speaker 3: a while. 245 00:12:41,600 --> 00:12:45,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, sometimes the speed run is the last 246 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,559 Speaker 1: thing you want to do, but yes, you always feel 247 00:12:47,559 --> 00:12:50,200 Speaker 1: better whenever it's done. But yes, it's good to mix 248 00:12:50,240 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: things up, especially if you're coming out of a running 249 00:12:53,720 --> 00:12:57,480 Speaker 1: rut or coming back from an injury and you just 250 00:12:57,640 --> 00:13:00,840 Speaker 1: don't know where to get started. It's good to mix 251 00:13:00,880 --> 00:13:03,920 Speaker 1: things up, but not only with speed runs. I often 252 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,480 Speaker 1: advise people to, I don't know, try a new to 253 00:13:07,520 --> 00:13:11,560 Speaker 1: you running route, even if it's in your neighborhood, even 254 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,199 Speaker 1: if it's in New York City. You can still find 255 00:13:14,240 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: new to you running routes, or go ahead and try 256 00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,720 Speaker 1: a trail run. Just try something different to try and 257 00:13:21,000 --> 00:13:23,320 Speaker 1: I don't know, reignite that love for the sport. 258 00:13:23,640 --> 00:13:28,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, And speaking of igniting love for the sport, beginner runners, 259 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:30,600 Speaker 2: there are a lot of them listening to this podcast 260 00:13:30,720 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 2: right now. And so for the individuals who are having 261 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:37,839 Speaker 2: trouble just getting started, what do you tell them when 262 00:13:37,880 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 2: it comes to lacing. 263 00:13:38,679 --> 00:13:41,880 Speaker 1: Up other than fire up those guided runs in the 264 00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:45,679 Speaker 1: Nike Running App, because there's more runs in there than 265 00:13:45,760 --> 00:13:49,320 Speaker 1: just listening to me. There's more than just guided runs 266 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,160 Speaker 1: in there as well. We have partnered with Headspace, the 267 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:55,920 Speaker 1: meditation app. They're interviewing professional athletes in there. So that's 268 00:13:56,000 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: one thing you can do. If you're just getting started 269 00:13:58,400 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: and you don't know where to start, you're going to 270 00:13:59,880 --> 00:14:02,880 Speaker 1: have someone in your ear like telling you where to start. 271 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:04,520 Speaker 4: And then I would also. 272 00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:06,880 Speaker 1: Say, even if you're not a group runner, you're a 273 00:14:06,880 --> 00:14:10,400 Speaker 1: solo runner, got to put yourself out there and try 274 00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:16,240 Speaker 1: and find your running crew, your community, your people. I 275 00:14:16,280 --> 00:14:19,320 Speaker 1: feel like I know plenty of beginner runners who never 276 00:14:19,400 --> 00:14:21,800 Speaker 1: ran with people because it's super intimidating. You think you're 277 00:14:21,840 --> 00:14:23,920 Speaker 1: going to be last, everyone's going to be waiting for me. 278 00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 1: But at the end of the day, even if you 279 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: are last and everyone's waiting for you, nobody cares. Nobody 280 00:14:28,480 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 1: cares like everyone's just happy that you're there. So the 281 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:36,200 Speaker 1: good thing about New York City is that we have 282 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:40,640 Speaker 1: the advantage of anything you could possibly be looking for from, 283 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:45,240 Speaker 1: you know, running crews that do track workouts, or ones 284 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 1: that specialize in long runs every weekend, or the just 285 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:54,080 Speaker 1: super casual five k community runs. There's anything you could 286 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:56,920 Speaker 1: possibly need. And even if you're not in New York, like, 287 00:14:57,040 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 1: it's a quick Google search away or talking to your 288 00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,840 Speaker 1: local running specialty store. There's just so many options. You 289 00:15:03,880 --> 00:15:06,040 Speaker 1: just got to start putting yourself out there and trying. 290 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 2: Some Yeah, and you know, we know that starting can 291 00:15:09,480 --> 00:15:12,200 Speaker 2: be intimidating and often is the hardest part. But once 292 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,359 Speaker 2: you get over that hurdle and look for your community, 293 00:15:15,600 --> 00:15:17,800 Speaker 2: then you have an opportunity to kind of get into 294 00:15:17,840 --> 00:15:19,560 Speaker 2: it in a way that maybe you wouldn't have. 295 00:15:19,520 --> 00:15:21,240 Speaker 3: Been capable of before. 296 00:15:21,400 --> 00:15:25,280 Speaker 2: Now we are talking about how community can be helpful. 297 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:28,160 Speaker 2: Definitely relevant to this question that came in, how do 298 00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,400 Speaker 2: I get back into running after a hiatus? This person, 299 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:35,240 Speaker 2: specifically not running for four years. Community can be a 300 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 2: big help. But what else would you tell this listener. 301 00:15:38,600 --> 00:15:40,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think we touched on a lot between like 302 00:15:40,760 --> 00:15:43,640 Speaker 1: the guided runs, the finding your people. But I would 303 00:15:43,720 --> 00:15:46,680 Speaker 1: also say, even if you were an experienced runner and 304 00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: you're coming back after a long time off, my number 305 00:15:50,360 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 1: one piece of advice is embracing the run walk. So 306 00:15:53,960 --> 00:15:57,320 Speaker 1: I think that running can be intimidating sometimes because there's 307 00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:00,200 Speaker 1: this misconception. I don't know where it came from, but 308 00:16:01,200 --> 00:16:02,800 Speaker 1: if you don't run a marathon, you're not like a 309 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:06,120 Speaker 1: real runner. I don't know, but I love embracing the 310 00:16:06,200 --> 00:16:09,280 Speaker 1: run walk, especially whenever you're just coming back from a 311 00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:11,960 Speaker 1: long time off and there's no shame in the run walk. 312 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:15,560 Speaker 1: It makes the run more enjoyable, it makes it more efficient. 313 00:16:15,720 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: You're running better versus slogging through some miles. And then 314 00:16:19,840 --> 00:16:22,760 Speaker 1: so starting with run walk, and then also just starting 315 00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:26,240 Speaker 1: with minutes instead of miles whenever you're first coming back 316 00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 1: from a long time off, So minutes instead of miles 317 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:32,920 Speaker 1: is your goal for the day, and then effort instead 318 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:34,120 Speaker 1: of pace is. 319 00:16:34,080 --> 00:16:35,080 Speaker 4: Your goal for the day. 320 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:37,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, and this is exactly what I'm doing. 321 00:16:37,160 --> 00:16:40,080 Speaker 2: And we'll transition into talking about injury a little bit, 322 00:16:40,080 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 2: because we certainly had a fair amount of questions come 323 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:43,280 Speaker 2: in about. 324 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:43,680 Speaker 4: How much time. 325 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:44,120 Speaker 6: Thanks. 326 00:16:44,360 --> 00:16:45,800 Speaker 3: I know how much time we have here today. 327 00:16:46,120 --> 00:16:48,840 Speaker 2: But for me, on my recovery journey right now navigating 328 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,760 Speaker 2: plantro fasci itis, I have one run every week where 329 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:55,360 Speaker 2: I'm two minutes on, two minutes off, and that's it. 330 00:16:55,360 --> 00:16:59,080 Speaker 2: It's RPE rate of perceived exertion, and I'm basing those 331 00:16:59,120 --> 00:17:01,520 Speaker 2: two minutes on to be an eight out of ten. 332 00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:03,520 Speaker 2: Then I walk for two minutes and then I come 333 00:17:03,560 --> 00:17:05,919 Speaker 2: back into it and five rounds of that. Listen, this 334 00:17:05,960 --> 00:17:07,840 Speaker 2: is coming from someone who used to go and do 335 00:17:08,000 --> 00:17:10,880 Speaker 2: thirty to forty minute track workouts, obviously with the recovery 336 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 2: time built in, but it's very different, and so a 337 00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:16,520 Speaker 2: big part of that for me is yes, the time element, 338 00:17:16,560 --> 00:17:18,680 Speaker 2: but also meeting myself with where I'm at and having 339 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:21,160 Speaker 2: grace with the fact that the runner that I am 340 00:17:21,200 --> 00:17:23,640 Speaker 2: today is built on the runner that I have been, 341 00:17:23,800 --> 00:17:26,760 Speaker 2: the runner that I am becoming, and also taking that 342 00:17:26,800 --> 00:17:28,800 Speaker 2: grace into where I want to go from here. 343 00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:29,360 Speaker 3: Now. 344 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:33,000 Speaker 2: I know you yourself have certainly also navigated your fair 345 00:17:33,440 --> 00:17:36,880 Speaker 2: share of injuries for someone who is on the bench, 346 00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:40,040 Speaker 2: so to speak, What advice do you offer to them 347 00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:41,720 Speaker 2: when they're feeling a little bit down and out. 348 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:44,159 Speaker 1: Going to these runs whenever you're injured can kind of 349 00:17:44,160 --> 00:17:46,880 Speaker 1: feel like going to Disney World and not being able 350 00:17:46,880 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 1: to ride the rides. But if it is your thing, 351 00:17:51,600 --> 00:17:54,320 Speaker 1: I think even whenever you're injured, just still coming to 352 00:17:54,400 --> 00:17:57,200 Speaker 1: some of these practices or some of the runs and 353 00:17:57,560 --> 00:18:01,520 Speaker 1: being around people can help with the mood a little bit. 354 00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:05,479 Speaker 1: But then also I find I'm guilty of this and 355 00:18:05,560 --> 00:18:08,320 Speaker 1: so kind of like the pot calling the kettle black here. 356 00:18:08,320 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 1: But even if you are injured from running, there's still 357 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:15,800 Speaker 1: other things you could probably be doing. So you try 358 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,680 Speaker 1: and like flip the mindset, and maybe it's finding a 359 00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:22,440 Speaker 1: different sport, or taking your group classes like yoga or 360 00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:24,560 Speaker 1: something that you haven't done in a long time, or 361 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: building back your strength training all those things that you 362 00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 1: didn't take the time to do whenever you are healthy 363 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:33,480 Speaker 1: and running all the time. So taking some time to 364 00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:36,520 Speaker 1: do those things while you're injured because you can do 365 00:18:36,880 --> 00:18:39,679 Speaker 1: you can likely do things other than running. So instead 366 00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: of just doing a full stop it's like, Okay, what 367 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:43,360 Speaker 1: else could. 368 00:18:43,200 --> 00:18:43,680 Speaker 4: I be doing? 369 00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, and what I'm hearing you say is that injury 370 00:18:45,800 --> 00:18:49,719 Speaker 2: can actually be an opportunity if you have the right 371 00:18:49,920 --> 00:18:52,800 Speaker 2: approach to it. So knowing that this is a chance 372 00:18:52,840 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 2: for you to rebuild, maybe in different ways, and find 373 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:58,399 Speaker 2: different opportunities to do things that fill you up. Just 374 00:18:58,440 --> 00:19:01,600 Speaker 2: because this new thing isn't the thing that previously filled 375 00:19:01,600 --> 00:19:04,200 Speaker 2: you up doesn't mean there is an opportunity out there 376 00:19:04,320 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 2: for you to find some joy within your movement practice exactly. 377 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:08,280 Speaker 4: Like I have. 378 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:11,520 Speaker 1: We have a friend that picked up tennis every Sunday. 379 00:19:11,560 --> 00:19:14,800 Speaker 1: Do not pick a ball, Nope, tennis? Okay, I think 380 00:19:14,800 --> 00:19:16,960 Speaker 1: the cool cool, Yeah, I think the cool thing to 381 00:19:17,000 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: do is kind of like not do pickleball now and 382 00:19:19,800 --> 00:19:23,840 Speaker 1: just go back to like the old school sport hot take. Yeah, 383 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:25,600 Speaker 1: but now like she loves it and she does it 384 00:19:25,640 --> 00:19:28,080 Speaker 1: every Sunday even though she's not injured anymore. 385 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,520 Speaker 2: So yeah, So coming back from injury again can be 386 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,240 Speaker 2: challenging having grace with yourself knowing that things are a 387 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:38,399 Speaker 2: little bit different for someone who is having difficulty finding 388 00:19:38,440 --> 00:19:41,120 Speaker 2: the motivation to get out there. I know, I'm sitting 389 00:19:41,160 --> 00:19:44,640 Speaker 2: next to a major Ted Lasso fan, So there's yep, 390 00:19:44,920 --> 00:19:47,199 Speaker 2: her face lit up when I said that, I know 391 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 2: that you know a thing or two about motivation. What 392 00:19:49,920 --> 00:19:52,119 Speaker 2: do you tell your athletes when they are kind of 393 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:54,960 Speaker 2: stuck in this rut and having trouble getting out the door. 394 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:58,400 Speaker 1: I would probably first tell them to take some time 395 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:02,879 Speaker 1: off and not run. So I'm a running coach that 396 00:20:03,000 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 1: definitely advises not running sometimes I feel like taking some 397 00:20:07,920 --> 00:20:10,280 Speaker 1: time off and like I said, doing all those things 398 00:20:10,320 --> 00:20:12,879 Speaker 1: that you didn't do whenever you were running all the time. 399 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:15,879 Speaker 1: I think that, just like anything else in life, whenever 400 00:20:15,920 --> 00:20:17,760 Speaker 1: we take a break from it, you then gain some 401 00:20:17,880 --> 00:20:20,600 Speaker 1: appreciation for it and then want to get back into it. 402 00:20:21,600 --> 00:20:25,679 Speaker 1: And I feel like just with social media or everyone 403 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:28,920 Speaker 1: following what everyone's doing, it's hard to take time off. 404 00:20:29,000 --> 00:20:31,040 Speaker 1: And even if you're in a rut and it's the 405 00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,240 Speaker 1: last thing you want to do, there's just this I 406 00:20:33,280 --> 00:20:35,879 Speaker 1: don't know, pressure that you've put on yourself that you 407 00:20:35,920 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: still have to go out and run. And so I 408 00:20:37,960 --> 00:20:39,959 Speaker 1: would say my number one piece of advice if you're 409 00:20:40,000 --> 00:20:41,560 Speaker 1: not feeling motivated to go out and. 410 00:20:41,600 --> 00:20:43,359 Speaker 4: Run is don't run. 411 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,840 Speaker 1: And then once you are ready to get back out there, 412 00:20:47,840 --> 00:20:50,639 Speaker 1: I don't know, it's again trying all of those different things, 413 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:53,240 Speaker 1: but maybe you never listened to music before, and now 414 00:20:53,280 --> 00:20:56,320 Speaker 1: you're going to start listening to music and playing those 415 00:20:56,359 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: games with yourself, Like Okay, I'm going to run during 416 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,840 Speaker 1: the chorus and walk during the verse like it's running 417 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,160 Speaker 1: is all about, And we talked about this in one 418 00:21:05,200 --> 00:21:07,520 Speaker 1: of the Run and Chat series. Running is all about 419 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: how long you can play mind games with yourself. And 420 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:13,600 Speaker 1: so you just got to find those little games and 421 00:21:13,720 --> 00:21:16,360 Speaker 1: tips and tricks that you can play with yourself. And 422 00:21:16,880 --> 00:21:19,919 Speaker 1: sometimes it's not even running. It could be like basketball, 423 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: but like you secretly ran two miles after like the 424 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: end of the game. 425 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:25,440 Speaker 4: So take some. 426 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:30,880 Speaker 1: Time off and then start finding those like little mind 427 00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:32,320 Speaker 1: games you can play. 428 00:21:32,400 --> 00:21:33,320 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I know. 429 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:35,840 Speaker 2: I mean I am totally one of those runners that 430 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:38,960 Speaker 2: either like thirty seconds or every minute, I'll change the song. 431 00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,280 Speaker 2: If I'm running out a treadmill by myself, and that 432 00:21:41,480 --> 00:21:43,600 Speaker 2: like thirty seconds, it's like okay, let me just get 433 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:45,880 Speaker 2: over this benchmark, let me get over the next benchmark, 434 00:21:45,920 --> 00:21:48,080 Speaker 2: and then before I know it, that two minute interval, 435 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:50,280 Speaker 2: which literally feels like it's like I'm running a marathon. 436 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:51,680 Speaker 3: It takes so long it's over. 437 00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, if we don't talk about the treadmill enough, I 438 00:21:54,119 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 1: think you know, oh you have people feel a way 439 00:21:58,040 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: about it. I think can be used as a tool, 440 00:22:01,760 --> 00:22:05,119 Speaker 1: especially whenever you're in a rut or you know, maybe 441 00:22:05,160 --> 00:22:07,120 Speaker 1: the confidence isn't there to run with a group yet, 442 00:22:07,240 --> 00:22:09,640 Speaker 1: or you're just coming back from an injury, Like the 443 00:22:09,680 --> 00:22:12,960 Speaker 1: treadmill can be used as a tool. You can put 444 00:22:12,960 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: your playlist on, you can put your guided run on, 445 00:22:15,359 --> 00:22:17,240 Speaker 1: or even if you're not ready to run yet, you 446 00:22:17,240 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: can just crank up the incline and power hike, not 447 00:22:20,359 --> 00:22:24,440 Speaker 1: walk on the treadmill. So we should like include that 448 00:22:24,480 --> 00:22:26,880 Speaker 1: in our list of things you can do to get 449 00:22:26,920 --> 00:22:28,000 Speaker 1: back into running right. 450 00:22:28,080 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 3: And I love a treadmill run. 451 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:32,560 Speaker 2: I think the great thing about a treadmill is cliche 452 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,040 Speaker 2: as this sounds, it's set it and forget it right. 453 00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:39,200 Speaker 2: So for me, someone who my fast pace right now 454 00:22:39,520 --> 00:22:42,879 Speaker 2: coming back from injury is my old marathon pace. And 455 00:22:42,960 --> 00:22:46,320 Speaker 2: so to be able to get on the treadmill, have 456 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:48,560 Speaker 2: a lot of grace with myself get on there and 457 00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,560 Speaker 2: be like, okay, I'm just gonna set this number in 458 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,119 Speaker 2: and like two minutes. I can do anything for two 459 00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:55,960 Speaker 2: minutes and that's it. And it's easier for me than 460 00:22:56,040 --> 00:22:59,120 Speaker 2: right now getting outside and trying to push myself definitely 461 00:22:59,200 --> 00:23:01,399 Speaker 2: also helps building that stamina back up. 462 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, I agree, use it. 463 00:23:03,440 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 2: Okay, this question coming in for you today, coach Jess. 464 00:23:07,000 --> 00:23:09,439 Speaker 2: I want to run three times a week for my 465 00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:12,639 Speaker 2: marathon training. What runs should I do? 466 00:23:13,720 --> 00:23:16,000 Speaker 1: Well, We're gonna throw it back to the I feel 467 00:23:16,040 --> 00:23:18,320 Speaker 1: like if you were paying attention, Yeah, I'm gonna have 468 00:23:18,359 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 1: to go back to the easy run, the speed run, 469 00:23:20,760 --> 00:23:24,520 Speaker 1: and the long run. And then once you, let's say 470 00:23:24,680 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: do that for four weeks build your base, you can 471 00:23:26,960 --> 00:23:29,320 Speaker 1: start to incorporate hopefully a fourth run, which is that 472 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: recovery run after your speed run. And like, I don't 473 00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:37,440 Speaker 1: think we should reinvent the wheel, and like those are it. 474 00:23:37,520 --> 00:23:40,240 Speaker 1: Those are like your building blocks. Those are your basics 475 00:23:40,320 --> 00:23:42,840 Speaker 1: no matter who you are, and that speed run can 476 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,199 Speaker 1: be different things. Of course, it doesn't always have to 477 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:48,880 Speaker 1: be intervals. You can do your tempo runs, your hill runs, 478 00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:52,480 Speaker 1: your fart licks. So mixing up that speed run is 479 00:23:52,520 --> 00:23:56,160 Speaker 1: a good tip and trick as well, instead of always 480 00:23:56,160 --> 00:23:58,879 Speaker 1: heading to the track for a speed workout or heading 481 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,360 Speaker 1: to the treadmill first speedwork out. 482 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:03,280 Speaker 4: But yeah, my ANSWER's not change and that's it. 483 00:24:03,720 --> 00:24:05,800 Speaker 2: Those are the three you know, You're saying a lot 484 00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,600 Speaker 2: of words here that could feel a little inside baseball 485 00:24:09,680 --> 00:24:14,120 Speaker 2: for someone who is a newer runner. This person may 486 00:24:14,160 --> 00:24:17,479 Speaker 2: also feel really intimidated by trying to take on all 487 00:24:17,600 --> 00:24:20,360 Speaker 2: of these things on their own. So the question comes 488 00:24:20,400 --> 00:24:22,640 Speaker 2: into play, and this one came in as well. How 489 00:24:22,680 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 2: do I know whether or not I should get a 490 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,360 Speaker 2: run coach. I'm sure this is something that you answer 491 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:29,600 Speaker 2: all of the time. 492 00:24:29,440 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 4: So plant this question, no, but talk to me. 493 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:36,280 Speaker 2: I'm not advertising your services necessarily either, but she is available. 494 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:36,399 Speaker 5: I know. 495 00:24:36,480 --> 00:24:38,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm not couch a buddy. I'm a little bit biased, 496 00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:41,679 Speaker 1: of course, but I feel like hiring a coach is 497 00:24:41,720 --> 00:24:46,080 Speaker 1: something that everybody should do at least once. Like to me, 498 00:24:46,280 --> 00:24:50,000 Speaker 1: this is a very low risk, high rewards situation where 499 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:53,040 Speaker 1: even if you don't gel with your coach or they're 500 00:24:53,080 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 1: just not your style, you're not loving it, at the 501 00:24:55,960 --> 00:24:57,639 Speaker 1: end of the day, at the end of the training cycle, 502 00:24:57,640 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: you're still going to take something away from it. You're 503 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 1: still going to learn something from that one on one 504 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,040 Speaker 1: coaching that you're going to be able to apply to 505 00:25:05,119 --> 00:25:09,040 Speaker 1: like future training cycles. And even if maybe you don't 506 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,439 Speaker 1: like the training plan or you don't like their style. 507 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:14,840 Speaker 1: There's still something to be said about that accountability factor 508 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,560 Speaker 1: of just knowing that someone is looking after your training 509 00:25:19,680 --> 00:25:22,960 Speaker 1: and checking in with you. And then honestly, I use 510 00:25:23,040 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 1: my coach as just someone to bounce ideas off of 511 00:25:26,840 --> 00:25:29,439 Speaker 1: and like, I don't know a moral compass with what 512 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:34,040 Speaker 1: I'm doing. So I think that any of those reasons 513 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:36,919 Speaker 1: should be a reason to at least work with a 514 00:25:36,960 --> 00:25:37,760 Speaker 1: coach once. 515 00:25:38,040 --> 00:25:40,960 Speaker 2: And another question that came in was in what different 516 00:25:40,960 --> 00:25:43,280 Speaker 2: capacities can I work with a run coach? Because I'm 517 00:25:43,320 --> 00:25:47,600 Speaker 2: sure that, as you know, different coaches offer different packages 518 00:25:47,640 --> 00:25:50,040 Speaker 2: and ways to work with them. So if someone wants 519 00:25:50,080 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 2: to work with a run coach, is there multiple ways 520 00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 2: to do so? 521 00:25:53,240 --> 00:25:56,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, because I think the you know, in person coaching 522 00:25:56,160 --> 00:25:58,960 Speaker 1: can be intimidating, or that one on one session that 523 00:25:59,000 --> 00:26:01,359 Speaker 1: you're working with a coach they're looking at your running form. 524 00:26:01,640 --> 00:26:03,960 Speaker 1: Maybe you don't start there, but that's definitely an option 525 00:26:04,000 --> 00:26:06,200 Speaker 1: of working with a coach. But there's plenty of virtual 526 00:26:06,600 --> 00:26:09,280 Speaker 1: coaches as well, where you can get that training plan 527 00:26:09,359 --> 00:26:11,679 Speaker 1: from them and it's not just a training plan that 528 00:26:11,680 --> 00:26:16,960 Speaker 1: you found online, but it's tailored or hyper personalized for you. Again, Yeah, 529 00:26:17,000 --> 00:26:20,920 Speaker 1: it's the being able to just message someone, hey, this 530 00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 1: stuff came up. The air quality is awful, Like should 531 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,760 Speaker 1: I run today? Should I not? Should I move my run? 532 00:26:28,080 --> 00:26:30,960 Speaker 1: I think just having a coach that you can talk to. 533 00:26:31,119 --> 00:26:33,560 Speaker 1: Maybe it's even just a life coach, not a running coach. 534 00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:36,760 Speaker 2: That I think a lot of coaches step in in 535 00:26:36,800 --> 00:26:37,520 Speaker 2: that capacity. 536 00:26:37,600 --> 00:26:39,000 Speaker 1: I know, I think I need to go back to 537 00:26:39,040 --> 00:26:41,920 Speaker 1: school some of the questions that I get. 538 00:26:42,000 --> 00:26:42,679 Speaker 3: Oh my gosh. 539 00:26:42,720 --> 00:26:44,960 Speaker 2: Well, so a coach can come in in a few 540 00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:47,600 Speaker 2: different capacities, right, They can create you just a plan. 541 00:26:47,640 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 2: If you're just looking for a plan, a coach can 542 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,640 Speaker 2: offer you that. A coach can be communicating with you regularly. 543 00:26:52,680 --> 00:26:54,359 Speaker 2: Maybe you want someone that's going to be able to 544 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:56,520 Speaker 2: text with you. You can find someone who's willing to 545 00:26:56,600 --> 00:26:59,320 Speaker 2: do that, someone that's willing to run with you. Another tier. 546 00:26:59,400 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 2: So depending on what it is that feels right for you, 547 00:27:02,520 --> 00:27:05,879 Speaker 2: you can lean into a running coach who's able to 548 00:27:05,960 --> 00:27:07,879 Speaker 2: offer you those different services. 549 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, And I mean one last thing that I want 550 00:27:10,160 --> 00:27:12,320 Speaker 1: to say about that is a lot of these runs, 551 00:27:12,320 --> 00:27:14,520 Speaker 1: a lot of these group runs, whether it's a community 552 00:27:14,600 --> 00:27:17,639 Speaker 1: run or with a track team, you have a coach 553 00:27:17,880 --> 00:27:20,480 Speaker 1: there that I think a lot of people don't utilize 554 00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: because it is a group run, there's a lot going on, 555 00:27:23,040 --> 00:27:24,840 Speaker 1: or maybe you feel like you're a bother, like, oh, 556 00:27:24,840 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: I don't want to bother. 557 00:27:26,000 --> 00:27:28,800 Speaker 4: That is what they are there for. They want to 558 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 4: be bothered. 559 00:27:30,119 --> 00:27:32,720 Speaker 1: Like to go up and talk to your coaches, whether 560 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: it's you know, a certified running coach or just a 561 00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:40,879 Speaker 1: community lead, like you have people in your network above 562 00:27:40,880 --> 00:27:43,600 Speaker 1: and beyond, like hiring someone to be a coach. There's 563 00:27:43,800 --> 00:27:46,719 Speaker 1: plenty of people out there as you join these runs 564 00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: that you can talk to to get advice. 565 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:51,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, and you actually brought up a really great point 566 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:55,440 Speaker 2: just now, which is knowing what certifications your run coach 567 00:27:55,520 --> 00:27:57,680 Speaker 2: or the person that you're speaking to that you might 568 00:27:57,680 --> 00:27:59,600 Speaker 2: be interested in working with has. 569 00:27:59,640 --> 00:28:01,800 Speaker 3: You want to make sure that you're taking care of you. 570 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 2: And yes, something might look jazzy and exciting on social media, 571 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,359 Speaker 2: but you want to make sure that this person not 572 00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 2: only has your best interest in mind, but is qualified 573 00:28:10,119 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 2: to help you get to where you want to be. 574 00:28:12,640 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 3: Period. 575 00:28:13,440 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: I need help making the social media look jazzy and exciting. 576 00:28:16,880 --> 00:28:19,040 Speaker 3: We can talk about that. Yeah, we can talk about that. 577 00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:21,760 Speaker 2: After I'll think anyone's coming to me because another question 578 00:28:21,840 --> 00:28:25,000 Speaker 2: that came in coach Jess, I start training in August 579 00:28:25,040 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 2: for my next race. What should I be doing until then? 580 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:30,800 Speaker 2: I see some head nodding in the audience. This seems 581 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,600 Speaker 2: to be a question that I certainly get messaged about 582 00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:33,880 Speaker 2: a lot. 583 00:28:34,400 --> 00:28:38,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, this is the time to do the complimentary things 584 00:28:38,720 --> 00:28:41,520 Speaker 1: to running, so it's your base building time. So it's 585 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:44,960 Speaker 1: a lot of easy runs, but it's also probably the 586 00:28:45,040 --> 00:28:46,800 Speaker 1: number one thing that a lot of us put off, 587 00:28:46,840 --> 00:28:51,960 Speaker 1: which is the strength training. And someone who has come 588 00:28:52,000 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: back from many an injury, I feel like we used 589 00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:56,400 Speaker 1: to be told as runners, Okay, you have to work 590 00:28:56,400 --> 00:28:58,080 Speaker 1: on your core strength. You your core has to be 591 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:00,440 Speaker 1: strong to be a runner. Good, check the box. And 592 00:29:00,480 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: then we come back with injuries because we weren't using 593 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: our glutes. It's like, okay, we have to work on 594 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,720 Speaker 1: our core and our glutes. And it's like, okay, well 595 00:29:07,720 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 1: now I have post tip ten nights. Okay, No, it's 596 00:29:10,240 --> 00:29:14,280 Speaker 1: a core glutes and foot strength. It's freaking anything strength 597 00:29:14,400 --> 00:29:17,920 Speaker 1: with running. It's so annoying how it's a full body sport. 598 00:29:18,400 --> 00:29:21,320 Speaker 1: So I think you have to use time right now. 599 00:29:21,560 --> 00:29:24,800 Speaker 1: Tell them why you're mad, Jess, I'm so mad, like 600 00:29:25,920 --> 00:29:29,240 Speaker 1: just does the body falling apart. Now, you try your best, 601 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,000 Speaker 1: but there's always something more that you can be doing. 602 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:35,560 Speaker 1: And my piece of advice with the strength training and 603 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,280 Speaker 1: this time period that you're base building before you get 604 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:43,360 Speaker 1: into that you know, more focused marathon, half marathon, ten k, 605 00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: whatever you're training for, that focused training during that base 606 00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,160 Speaker 1: building time. With the strength training, it doesn't always have 607 00:29:49,280 --> 00:29:51,520 Speaker 1: to be this you know, I have to schlep to 608 00:29:51,600 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: the gym and it's going to be this forty five 609 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 1: minute ordeal. Because the best strength training you can do 610 00:29:57,880 --> 00:29:59,600 Speaker 1: is the one that you're going to do. And so 611 00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: I tell people that ten minutes is better than no minutes. 612 00:30:02,040 --> 00:30:04,560 Speaker 1: And like all these little drops in the bucket are 613 00:30:04,600 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: going to add up cumulatively throughout the week. So if 614 00:30:08,200 --> 00:30:11,000 Speaker 1: you fire up the Nike Training app instead of the 615 00:30:11,120 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: Nike Running app, like there's so many different things that 616 00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:15,920 Speaker 1: you can choose from, whether it's just a ten minute 617 00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:20,760 Speaker 1: corese session or a post run stretching session that's in 618 00:30:20,800 --> 00:30:22,880 Speaker 1: the app, And so you don't have to make it 619 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:26,240 Speaker 1: this big thing that I need a gym membership or whatever. 620 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:29,520 Speaker 1: There are plenty of like free things you can do 621 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:32,000 Speaker 1: and ten to fifteen minute things that you can do, 622 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,280 Speaker 1: and just the more often that you do it right 623 00:30:34,320 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: now in this base building phase, the better. 624 00:30:36,960 --> 00:30:38,600 Speaker 3: You don't need to make it complicated. 625 00:30:38,640 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 2: The best strength training you can do is the strength 626 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:42,600 Speaker 2: training you will do. 627 00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 3: That that's a tidbit right there. 628 00:30:45,240 --> 00:30:49,080 Speaker 2: Now, you're also saying, essentially control the controllable. Something that 629 00:30:49,120 --> 00:30:54,000 Speaker 2: we have within our power to control is also what 630 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:57,360 Speaker 2: we wear, specifically our footwear. Our question that came in 631 00:30:57,520 --> 00:31:00,640 Speaker 2: from the Hurdlars is how do I know what sneaker 632 00:31:00,760 --> 00:31:03,520 Speaker 2: I should be running in? Do I need different types 633 00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:05,000 Speaker 2: of sneakers in my rotation? 634 00:31:06,520 --> 00:31:08,440 Speaker 4: Yes, I'm gonna say yes. 635 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:11,240 Speaker 1: Just like we've talked about it a few times now, 636 00:31:11,240 --> 00:31:14,960 Speaker 1: how every run has a purpose, every shoe has a purpose, 637 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:18,720 Speaker 1: and so starting out, I mean, I would love for 638 00:31:18,760 --> 00:31:21,120 Speaker 1: people to start out and just like a neutral shoe, 639 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,920 Speaker 1: the Swiss Army Knife of shoes. I'm biased. I'm a 640 00:31:24,000 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: Nike running coach. I always recommend the Nike Pegasus is 641 00:31:27,280 --> 00:31:30,440 Speaker 1: your starting point because it can do it all. But 642 00:31:30,520 --> 00:31:34,240 Speaker 1: once you maybe get deeper and deeper into your running journey, 643 00:31:34,440 --> 00:31:37,800 Speaker 1: there are different shoes that serve different purposes, and so 644 00:31:37,920 --> 00:31:41,960 Speaker 1: you can have your nice soft cushy, easy running shoe 645 00:31:41,960 --> 00:31:44,560 Speaker 1: for your easy days and then break out your speed 646 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:49,160 Speaker 1: running shoe for your speed days. And I always tell 647 00:31:49,200 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 1: people we tend to like really like those speed shoes, 648 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:56,080 Speaker 1: and so like circling back to like the injury prone. 649 00:31:56,120 --> 00:31:58,440 Speaker 1: I mean they feel good and your bouncy and your 650 00:31:58,520 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 1: level bounce, yeah, and you're fast, and they're doing part 651 00:32:01,200 --> 00:32:03,680 Speaker 1: of the work for you. But trying to save those 652 00:32:03,800 --> 00:32:06,720 Speaker 1: for the speed run days or the race day and 653 00:32:07,040 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: start building that I don't know, closet of No, you 654 00:32:11,080 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 1: don't need a full closet of shoes, a. 655 00:32:13,240 --> 00:32:17,479 Speaker 2: Full closet closet a couple of different share fair And 656 00:32:17,760 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 2: I mean we're talking about like leaning into your speed shoe. 657 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:22,480 Speaker 2: You mentioned perhaps that your speed shoe would have a 658 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:26,000 Speaker 2: carbon plate. These shoes also conventionally a little bit lighter, 659 00:32:26,080 --> 00:32:28,959 Speaker 2: a little bit zippier, and that will make them feel 660 00:32:29,080 --> 00:32:31,840 Speaker 2: different than what you might go out and run a 661 00:32:31,920 --> 00:32:34,400 Speaker 2: mile a five k easy running with. 662 00:32:34,560 --> 00:32:36,360 Speaker 3: It's going to be a little bit different. 663 00:32:36,640 --> 00:32:39,120 Speaker 2: But most importantly, what the research shows is that you 664 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:41,480 Speaker 2: want to lean into a shoe that makes you feel comfortable. 665 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:44,440 Speaker 2: When you feel comfortable in your sneaker, you are less 666 00:32:44,760 --> 00:32:47,160 Speaker 2: likely to get injured, and again that's the name of 667 00:32:47,200 --> 00:32:49,800 Speaker 2: the game. We want you to keep running for as 668 00:32:49,840 --> 00:32:51,840 Speaker 2: long as possible, as long as it feels good for you. 669 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 3: That's where we want to be, right yeah. 670 00:32:54,120 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, And you got to get your trail shoe as well. 671 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,800 Speaker 2: I gotta get a trail show what a trail sneaker 672 00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 2: has that maybe a road running sneaker wouldn't have. 673 00:33:02,160 --> 00:33:05,520 Speaker 1: Jess love that, okay. So some of them have like 674 00:33:05,560 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 1: a rock plate in it. So there's different versions of 675 00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:10,680 Speaker 1: trail shoes as well. Every trail shoe has a purpose, 676 00:33:10,800 --> 00:33:12,840 Speaker 1: so some of them have a rock plate for the 677 00:33:12,840 --> 00:33:15,640 Speaker 1: more technical trails, but most of them will have at 678 00:33:15,720 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 1: least some more grippy lugs underneath for the different terrains. 679 00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,040 Speaker 1: Hopefully they are also a quick drying for those trails 680 00:33:24,080 --> 00:33:27,560 Speaker 1: that have the stream crossings and muddy trails, there's gore 681 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 1: tech shoes to repel the rain and the mud, so 682 00:33:31,520 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: I if you were to there's also the Pegasus trail shoe, 683 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,560 Speaker 1: right we keep talking about like the Swiss army knife. 684 00:33:37,600 --> 00:33:39,840 Speaker 1: I would start there, and then just like the road 685 00:33:39,880 --> 00:33:43,520 Speaker 1: running shoe, there's different versions of the trail running shoe 686 00:33:43,560 --> 00:33:43,960 Speaker 1: as well. 687 00:33:44,120 --> 00:33:46,160 Speaker 4: Forty years old, let's sleep on trail, you know. 688 00:33:46,360 --> 00:33:50,080 Speaker 2: Wow, No, definitely not, definitely not now we're talking trail. 689 00:33:51,000 --> 00:33:52,920 Speaker 2: We have a question that came in from an employee 690 00:33:52,920 --> 00:33:55,840 Speaker 2: here at Nike that asked, have you ever run Hood 691 00:33:55,840 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 2: to Coast and do you have any tricks or tips 692 00:33:58,760 --> 00:34:01,120 Speaker 2: for those that may be unfamiliar. Your Hood to Coast 693 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:07,160 Speaker 2: is an almost two hundred plus mile team relay, so tips, tricks, thoughts. 694 00:34:07,440 --> 00:34:10,000 Speaker 1: I feel like there's members of the audience that could 695 00:34:10,080 --> 00:34:12,080 Speaker 1: answer this one better than I can. I've had the 696 00:34:12,080 --> 00:34:14,400 Speaker 1: opportunity to coach Hood to Coast and be there for 697 00:34:14,520 --> 00:34:16,360 Speaker 1: it and be in the vans for it. I haven't 698 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:19,840 Speaker 1: actually run it myself somehow, but tips and tricks for 699 00:34:20,000 --> 00:34:25,480 Speaker 1: Hood to Coast Having everything super organized. I learned that 700 00:34:25,600 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: from one of my good friends. The more organized you 701 00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:31,320 Speaker 1: can keep your van, the less chaotic it's going to become. 702 00:34:32,000 --> 00:34:34,680 Speaker 1: So keeping things organized because you're gonna be living in 703 00:34:34,719 --> 00:34:38,439 Speaker 1: that van in and out, so keeping that van nice 704 00:34:38,440 --> 00:34:42,600 Speaker 1: and organized, and then also being fluid with your plan 705 00:34:42,800 --> 00:34:49,160 Speaker 1: because sometimes things pop up, whether you can't find your runner, 706 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,680 Speaker 1: or your runner's waiting for you because there's traffic, or 707 00:34:51,800 --> 00:34:53,920 Speaker 1: someone gets injured and you got to pop in. So 708 00:34:54,640 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 1: a plan is really great until you have to like 709 00:34:57,880 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 1: throw it in there. So it's always is you got 710 00:35:00,880 --> 00:35:04,520 Speaker 1: to stay mobile, stay agile, stay fluid, but also stay 711 00:35:04,760 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: super organized going into it so that you are prepared 712 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:12,120 Speaker 1: for everything and anything that could pop up. Training wise, though, 713 00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,799 Speaker 1: with Hood to Coast, I don't know if I don't 714 00:35:15,800 --> 00:35:17,320 Speaker 1: remember if you mentioned it, but it's a two hundred 715 00:35:17,320 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 1: mile relay race, and so since it's a relay race, 716 00:35:20,640 --> 00:35:22,560 Speaker 1: you're going to be running fast and then sitting down, 717 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,880 Speaker 1: and then running fast and then sitting down. So just 718 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:28,280 Speaker 1: like anything that you train for, whether it's a marathon 719 00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: or a five k or a trail race, you have 720 00:35:30,239 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: to eventually train for the terrain or type of race 721 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:36,480 Speaker 1: that you're going to be running. So we got to 722 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:40,839 Speaker 1: do a couple of those runs that are maybe morning, afternoon, 723 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:45,080 Speaker 1: and evening, or recruiting a friend to safely do an 724 00:35:45,160 --> 00:35:49,000 Speaker 1: overnight run with you. You got to practice everything before 725 00:35:49,080 --> 00:35:49,680 Speaker 1: race day. 726 00:35:49,719 --> 00:35:52,600 Speaker 3: Gotta practice nothing new on race day. 727 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:54,880 Speaker 2: All Right, as we wind down here, I am going 728 00:35:54,960 --> 00:35:57,719 Speaker 2: to open this up shortly for audience questions. But the 729 00:35:57,760 --> 00:36:01,400 Speaker 2: last question I'm going to ask you, we're talking about racing. 730 00:36:01,440 --> 00:36:03,800 Speaker 2: We're talking about hed to Coast a lot of individuals 731 00:36:03,800 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 2: trying to figure out what the right race is for 732 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:11,040 Speaker 2: them to run. How does a runner choose the right race. 733 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: Type of race, race distance, location, whatever. At the end 734 00:36:17,239 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: of the day, it has to be something that puts 735 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 1: that little bit of fire in your belly. It cannot 736 00:36:22,920 --> 00:36:25,560 Speaker 1: be something that the rest of your team is signing 737 00:36:25,600 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: up for so you feel like you have to sign 738 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:29,799 Speaker 1: up for it. It can't be I don't know, you 739 00:36:29,840 --> 00:36:31,680 Speaker 1: have to run a marathon in order to feel like 740 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,439 Speaker 1: a real runner at the end of the day. Who 741 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:37,960 Speaker 1: cares what the distance is or where it is. It 742 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: has to be something that you are excited about, because 743 00:36:40,960 --> 00:36:44,000 Speaker 1: there's going to be days like today where maybe it's 744 00:36:44,000 --> 00:36:46,160 Speaker 1: not possible to run outside and you're going to come 745 00:36:46,239 --> 00:36:48,560 Speaker 1: up with all these excuses of guess, I can't run today, 746 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: but maybe you could go to the gym and run 747 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:54,359 Speaker 1: on the treadmill. But once those days get tough or 748 00:36:54,640 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 1: I don't know, the last thing that you want to do. 749 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:58,839 Speaker 1: You have to have a goal that you're excited about 750 00:36:58,920 --> 00:37:02,000 Speaker 1: or it's going to be very easy to negotiate yourself 751 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:02,719 Speaker 1: out of the run. 752 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,879 Speaker 2: Definitely, and you know, finding the joy and the journey, right, 753 00:37:05,920 --> 00:37:08,800 Speaker 2: because if you're only looking forward to that one moment 754 00:37:08,800 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 2: when you cross the finish line, then what's the point 755 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:13,440 Speaker 2: of the rest of it. So making sure that regardless 756 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:15,959 Speaker 2: of what race you sign up for, you're having fun 757 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 2: and you're doing it because it's important to you, not 758 00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:21,240 Speaker 2: because you feel as though you should should yourself into 759 00:37:21,520 --> 00:37:22,640 Speaker 2: some sort of a bucket. 760 00:37:22,320 --> 00:37:23,000 Speaker 3: List item like that. 761 00:37:23,280 --> 00:37:27,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, amazing, coach Yess, Yes, you're so excellent. 762 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:32,840 Speaker 3: All right, I'm going to open it up to audience questions. 763 00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:35,759 Speaker 2: Does someone have a question that they want to ask 764 00:37:35,960 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 2: coach Jess or Emily? Honestly, Armie, this is Scretchen and 765 00:37:41,200 --> 00:37:46,560 Speaker 2: this question is what advice do you have for how 766 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,720 Speaker 2: a woman's cycle can impact their training? 767 00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:52,000 Speaker 4: Oh, I know that is. 768 00:37:51,960 --> 00:37:57,120 Speaker 1: A hot topic right now, and it's true. I would 769 00:37:57,160 --> 00:38:01,160 Speaker 1: say the number one piece of advice is working with 770 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:05,680 Speaker 1: your cycle and not fighting it. So what we're seeing 771 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:09,000 Speaker 1: now and one of I don't know something that I 772 00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:13,239 Speaker 1: feel very passionately about. It's why I ran a multi day, 773 00:38:13,239 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: three hundred mile race was to bring awareness to the 774 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:19,480 Speaker 1: fact that women are highly underrepresented in terms of like 775 00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,960 Speaker 1: sports science and research, and so I think we constantly 776 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 1: need to be an experiment of an equals one on ourselves. 777 00:38:26,840 --> 00:38:29,920 Speaker 1: But this goes into hiring a coach and working with 778 00:38:29,960 --> 00:38:34,759 Speaker 1: a coach that is knowledgeable and comfortable with talking to 779 00:38:34,840 --> 00:38:38,279 Speaker 1: you about your menstrual cycle, even if it's just you know, 780 00:38:38,600 --> 00:38:42,240 Speaker 1: anecdotally with how you feel, and being able to adjust 781 00:38:42,320 --> 00:38:46,800 Speaker 1: that training versus that rigid you know, three week build 782 00:38:46,920 --> 00:38:50,719 Speaker 1: one down week. Maybe your period doesn't fall on that 783 00:38:51,200 --> 00:38:54,120 Speaker 1: twenty eight day cycle and your coach is giving you 784 00:38:54,200 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 1: workouts like tempo workouts and really difficult track workouts on 785 00:38:58,320 --> 00:39:01,640 Speaker 1: that week leading up to your period, whenever you should 786 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,680 Speaker 1: really just be like hunkering down doing easy runs like 787 00:39:04,760 --> 00:39:07,520 Speaker 1: nurturing your body, and then once you get your period, 788 00:39:07,600 --> 00:39:12,160 Speaker 1: maybe doing some of those pr races and workouts and goals. 789 00:39:12,200 --> 00:39:16,239 Speaker 1: So to summarize, I would say working with it, not 790 00:39:16,400 --> 00:39:20,160 Speaker 1: against it, and finding a coach or someone knowledgeable who 791 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:24,280 Speaker 1: can help you with this and start tailoring your training 792 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: around your own personal cycle. 793 00:39:27,120 --> 00:39:30,120 Speaker 2: Right, so, knowing yourself well enough to know where you 794 00:39:30,160 --> 00:39:32,239 Speaker 2: are in what phase of your cycle, understanding that the 795 00:39:32,280 --> 00:39:36,239 Speaker 2: different phases do impact you, and also coming to it 796 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,280 Speaker 2: with some grace right one day of changing the plan. 797 00:39:39,400 --> 00:39:42,360 Speaker 2: This is why we oh so often here at the 798 00:39:42,360 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 2: phrase this is meant to be written in pencil, and 799 00:39:45,120 --> 00:39:47,480 Speaker 2: it's because you can mix it up and that's okay. 800 00:39:47,560 --> 00:39:51,240 Speaker 2: Have some grace with yourself and keep moving on. Yeah, 801 00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:54,160 Speaker 2: another question from the audience. 802 00:39:54,400 --> 00:39:58,600 Speaker 7: Ashley, and I'd love your advice on easy or recovery 803 00:39:58,640 --> 00:40:01,280 Speaker 7: runs because I don't know if that means like sixty 804 00:40:01,360 --> 00:40:04,480 Speaker 7: to seventy percent of your threshold or like thirty seconds 805 00:40:04,520 --> 00:40:07,200 Speaker 7: to a minute lower. I think I just get too 806 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:08,920 Speaker 7: much math is in my head when going into it, 807 00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 7: and it should be easy, but it like gives me 808 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:12,719 Speaker 7: so much anxiety to think about an easy run. 809 00:40:13,080 --> 00:40:15,960 Speaker 1: I would say for an easy run or a recovery run, 810 00:40:16,000 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 1: that's where we're not talking about pace at all. And 811 00:40:18,640 --> 00:40:20,879 Speaker 1: I know that's easier said than done, because a lot 812 00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:23,560 Speaker 1: of our runs then, you know, get posted somewhere after 813 00:40:23,600 --> 00:40:26,520 Speaker 1: the fact, and I find that even in the middle 814 00:40:26,520 --> 00:40:28,359 Speaker 1: of a run, you're already thinking about like what this 815 00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: is going to look like once it gets posted. But 816 00:40:30,719 --> 00:40:34,799 Speaker 1: I think the bigger flex is to not care at 817 00:40:34,840 --> 00:40:38,160 Speaker 1: all what it looks like. And there are plenty of 818 00:40:38,719 --> 00:40:42,200 Speaker 1: you know, Olympic Trials qualifying runners or elite runners that 819 00:40:42,280 --> 00:40:47,719 Speaker 1: are running their easy runs minutes slower than their race pace, right, 820 00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:50,960 Speaker 1: Like Kipchoge's running his easy runs at seven thirty, Meanwhile 821 00:40:51,000 --> 00:40:54,480 Speaker 1: his race pace is four minutes something. So I think 822 00:40:54,480 --> 00:40:57,239 Speaker 1: that's the bigger flex of like how slow can you go? 823 00:40:57,719 --> 00:41:00,480 Speaker 1: And on the easy days and recovery run days, I 824 00:41:00,640 --> 00:41:02,680 Speaker 1: just like to tell my runners to let them be 825 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 1: whatever they need to be that day and base them 826 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:10,680 Speaker 1: on feel. Right, Like a nine minute mile can feel 827 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:15,080 Speaker 1: very different one week and versus the following week. So 828 00:41:15,480 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 1: you can't really go by pace on those easy runs 829 00:41:17,680 --> 00:41:20,799 Speaker 1: and recovery runs and more, go by feel and let 830 00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:23,279 Speaker 1: it be as easy as it needs to be that day. 831 00:41:23,480 --> 00:41:26,880 Speaker 2: So when we're talking about going on feel, let's even 832 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:30,040 Speaker 2: narrow that down a little bit more. If someone, say, 833 00:41:30,680 --> 00:41:34,040 Speaker 2: is a runner who goes out and on a regular 834 00:41:34,120 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 2: run day they're at seven out of ten, what would 835 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:39,759 Speaker 2: their recovery run day feel like? 836 00:41:40,200 --> 00:41:42,879 Speaker 1: So for like your your warm up and cool down 837 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:46,080 Speaker 1: that's like a two out of ten. It should feel 838 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:49,480 Speaker 1: like something that you could do in theory forever. It 839 00:41:49,520 --> 00:41:52,759 Speaker 1: should feel like maybe it's a power walk to warm up, 840 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,640 Speaker 1: maybe it's a walk with a bounce, so that it 841 00:41:55,760 --> 00:41:58,359 Speaker 1: just looks like running and then once you get once 842 00:41:58,400 --> 00:42:01,040 Speaker 1: you get warmed up and into that easy run or 843 00:42:01,160 --> 00:42:04,799 Speaker 1: recovery run, it's really just a five out of ten. 844 00:42:04,920 --> 00:42:07,680 Speaker 1: You're hanging out at fifty percent effort. It should again 845 00:42:07,800 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: feel like you can talk there, you can have a 846 00:42:09,880 --> 00:42:13,560 Speaker 1: conversation there, you can listen to a podcast and be 847 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:14,839 Speaker 1: able to pay attention to it. 848 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:16,880 Speaker 4: So we're hanging. 849 00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 1: Out at like a five out of ten effort once 850 00:42:18,719 --> 00:42:19,480 Speaker 1: you get warmed up. 851 00:42:19,719 --> 00:42:22,239 Speaker 2: Okay, really great advice there on recovery runs. We're going 852 00:42:22,320 --> 00:42:25,400 Speaker 2: to take one more question from the audience. Oh we have, 853 00:42:25,760 --> 00:42:27,880 Speaker 2: We'll take two more. So I'm going to take right 854 00:42:27,960 --> 00:42:28,880 Speaker 2: up here in the front. 855 00:42:28,680 --> 00:42:31,400 Speaker 6: Amma, Michelle, and I would love to hear from both 856 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:33,800 Speaker 6: of you. Jess, I love that you mentioned the myth 857 00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:36,239 Speaker 6: that like, if I don't run a marathon, I'm not 858 00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:39,279 Speaker 6: a real runner. Something that I hear a lot is 859 00:42:39,320 --> 00:42:42,000 Speaker 6: a myth that I'm not a real runner if I 860 00:42:42,040 --> 00:42:44,840 Speaker 6: don't look like a runner or have the body type, 861 00:42:44,920 --> 00:42:47,560 Speaker 6: the stereotypical body type of a runner. So how do 862 00:42:47,600 --> 00:42:49,759 Speaker 6: you encourage someone who feels like they won't fit into 863 00:42:49,800 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 6: the community in that way? 864 00:42:52,560 --> 00:42:55,600 Speaker 1: My number one thing is to just come out and 865 00:42:55,640 --> 00:42:59,279 Speaker 1: see for yourself. Come to a group run, and you 866 00:42:59,320 --> 00:43:02,760 Speaker 1: will see that you can definitely never judge a runner 867 00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:05,800 Speaker 1: by what they look like. There's been plenty of times 868 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,920 Speaker 1: on the trails where a seven year old man carrying 869 00:43:09,920 --> 00:43:14,160 Speaker 1: a loaf of bread is passing me. So you cannot 870 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:16,680 Speaker 1: judge a runner by how they look, that's for sure. 871 00:43:17,200 --> 00:43:20,720 Speaker 1: And like the Nike's saying, if you have a body, 872 00:43:20,920 --> 00:43:24,880 Speaker 1: you are an athlete, I think you just have to 873 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:29,279 Speaker 1: accept that no matter what your body type is, as 874 00:43:29,280 --> 00:43:31,759 Speaker 1: long as you are getting out there and you are 875 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:35,279 Speaker 1: starting your run, you're a runner. Or even if you 876 00:43:35,600 --> 00:43:37,520 Speaker 1: have never run before, then you're just a runner who's 877 00:43:37,560 --> 00:43:38,240 Speaker 1: never run before. 878 00:43:38,560 --> 00:43:41,600 Speaker 3: So, Michelle, I love this question. Thank you so much 879 00:43:41,600 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 3: for asking it. 880 00:43:42,239 --> 00:43:45,240 Speaker 2: I think that something to keep in mind as well 881 00:43:45,480 --> 00:43:47,880 Speaker 2: is that to just this point, getting out there is 882 00:43:48,200 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 2: often the hardest part, especially when you feel really intimidated. 883 00:43:51,200 --> 00:43:54,120 Speaker 2: So going out and realizing that you are not alone 884 00:43:54,120 --> 00:43:56,279 Speaker 2: in how you feel, there are going to be so 885 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,760 Speaker 2: many people in your community who have various forms of insecurities, 886 00:43:59,800 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 2: and so knowing that you show up as your authentic self, 887 00:44:02,680 --> 00:44:05,080 Speaker 2: it gives you an opportunity to not only connect with 888 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:08,360 Speaker 2: individuals through the run, but then also talk about so 889 00:44:08,440 --> 00:44:11,880 Speaker 2: many other things and putting yourself out there again understandably 890 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,840 Speaker 2: very challenging. But once you do, I don't know a 891 00:44:15,920 --> 00:44:17,239 Speaker 2: person that's ever regretted it. 892 00:44:17,440 --> 00:44:19,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, Hector mentions it on his community. 893 00:44:19,680 --> 00:44:22,279 Speaker 1: Above all run that he is a if you don't 894 00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:24,600 Speaker 1: know him, he's a two hundred pound Dominican man and 895 00:44:24,680 --> 00:44:28,960 Speaker 1: he is a runner. So all body types, all ages, 896 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 1: all races, we are all a runner. But yeah, easier 897 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:34,680 Speaker 1: said than done to get out of your head with that. 898 00:44:35,000 --> 00:44:37,560 Speaker 2: Totally, totally thank you for that question. We're going to 899 00:44:37,560 --> 00:44:39,640 Speaker 2: go for our final question up here in the front. 900 00:44:40,160 --> 00:44:43,640 Speaker 5: Hello, I'm Chrissy, and I wanted to ask a question 901 00:44:43,800 --> 00:44:46,560 Speaker 5: I got told this one. I went across country camp 902 00:44:46,600 --> 00:44:49,000 Speaker 5: and there was a coach that said, we all have 903 00:44:49,080 --> 00:44:51,880 Speaker 5: our own boxes, not that we put ourselves into, but 904 00:44:51,920 --> 00:44:54,279 Speaker 5: that we start in, and so how do we break 905 00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:56,240 Speaker 5: out of those? And my question is for you guys 906 00:44:56,320 --> 00:44:58,759 Speaker 5: on what is your advice on breaking out of that 907 00:44:58,960 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 5: and kind of getting to your goals and kind of 908 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:04,439 Speaker 5: fighting that fear of hitting that goal or missing that goal. 909 00:45:05,200 --> 00:45:08,200 Speaker 3: I'm gonna kick us off, go for it, and then I'm. 910 00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:10,680 Speaker 4: Gonna embarrass the person that asked this question. 911 00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:15,480 Speaker 2: So go for okay, we love foreshadowing like that. Well, 912 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:18,879 Speaker 2: I'll start off by not embarrassing you. I never had 913 00:45:18,920 --> 00:45:21,719 Speaker 2: an aspiration ever to qualify for the Boston Marathon. It 914 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:24,960 Speaker 2: was never something on my radar as a person that 915 00:45:25,040 --> 00:45:27,440 Speaker 2: found running at a time in my life where I 916 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:30,600 Speaker 2: began with a lot of negative self talk, running enabled 917 00:45:30,640 --> 00:45:32,680 Speaker 2: me to see my own potential and get really excited. 918 00:45:32,719 --> 00:45:34,040 Speaker 3: And I did it because it was fun. 919 00:45:34,400 --> 00:45:37,040 Speaker 2: I never had a goal in my definition to quote 920 00:45:37,120 --> 00:45:39,879 Speaker 2: unquote run fast, and so for me, I was able 921 00:45:39,920 --> 00:45:42,320 Speaker 2: to break outside of the box when I stopped putting 922 00:45:42,360 --> 00:45:46,000 Speaker 2: limitations on myself just that were arbitrary, and I started 923 00:45:46,040 --> 00:45:49,160 Speaker 2: running based on feel. I started leaning into community, I 924 00:45:49,200 --> 00:45:51,680 Speaker 2: started finding friends that I could share my runs with, 925 00:45:51,719 --> 00:45:53,640 Speaker 2: and all of those things paid off for me in 926 00:45:53,680 --> 00:45:56,719 Speaker 2: a way that I never even expected. So again, that 927 00:45:56,840 --> 00:45:59,840 Speaker 2: for me was rooted in a lot of self belief 928 00:46:00,200 --> 00:46:04,360 Speaker 2: and also just the feel, asking myself hundreds of times 929 00:46:04,480 --> 00:46:07,160 Speaker 2: during the Chicago Marathon in twenty nineteen, like how do 930 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:07,879 Speaker 2: you feel right now? 931 00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:09,320 Speaker 3: What is your rate of perceived exertion? 932 00:46:09,400 --> 00:46:11,279 Speaker 2: Can you keep running like this for one hour, for 933 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:14,760 Speaker 2: two hours, for three hours and then beyond my wildest dreams. 934 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,319 Speaker 2: I was able to do something that I never thought 935 00:46:16,320 --> 00:46:19,080 Speaker 2: capable of that I was capable of. So for me, 936 00:46:19,200 --> 00:46:22,040 Speaker 2: breaking out of the box is really just doing an 937 00:46:22,080 --> 00:46:24,640 Speaker 2: inner deep dive and an inner audit of how I 938 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 2: feel and being honest with myself so that I can 939 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,320 Speaker 2: go after whatever my big potential is and not limiting 940 00:46:30,400 --> 00:46:32,440 Speaker 2: that potential, not being the only thing that's standing in 941 00:46:32,440 --> 00:46:32,959 Speaker 2: my own way. 942 00:46:33,920 --> 00:46:35,160 Speaker 3: Love that, Thanks Chess. 943 00:46:35,280 --> 00:46:37,640 Speaker 4: I'm not going to embarrass her. I'm going to hyper up. 944 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:40,640 Speaker 3: Oh okay, that's cool. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah yeah, okay. 945 00:46:40,840 --> 00:46:43,600 Speaker 4: So I'm not hazing anyone on your podcast, please don't. 946 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: So running is all about being uncomfortable and then being 947 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:51,480 Speaker 1: okay with being uncomfortable, and sometimes that means putting yourself 948 00:46:51,480 --> 00:46:56,200 Speaker 1: in uncomfortable situations on purpose and trying new things in 949 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,319 Speaker 1: order to kind of like break out of that box 950 00:46:58,360 --> 00:46:59,920 Speaker 1: that you put yourself in or the type of runner 951 00:46:59,920 --> 00:47:03,120 Speaker 1: that you think that you are. And Chrissy herself just 952 00:47:03,160 --> 00:47:07,480 Speaker 1: put herself in an uncomfortable situation and joined a historically 953 00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:14,400 Speaker 1: super fast race, an unsanctioned race with all of you know, 954 00:47:14,400 --> 00:47:16,520 Speaker 1: two hundred people in New York, meeting at two o'clock 955 00:47:16,560 --> 00:47:18,720 Speaker 1: in the morning to run very quickly through the streets. 956 00:47:18,719 --> 00:47:21,880 Speaker 1: And maybe you don't consider yourself a super fast runner, 957 00:47:21,880 --> 00:47:24,600 Speaker 1: but you still signed up for that race. And that's 958 00:47:24,680 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 1: a very vulnerable thing to do.
