Paris Olympic Build: Sankt Moritz (Episode 15)
Training in St. Moritz, Switzerland lived up to the hype and was absolutely incredible. This week was all about recovering from the high of the start of the Olympics in Paris. We dropped our total weekly mileage down to 75 miles, and ran our last two workouts. “Tapering”, when we cut back mileage and workouts, is tough. My body feels like it goes into withdrawals and the mind starts to get anxious. I believe in “The Taper”, but in the moment it can be tough.
In October 2023, I ran 2:08:00 at the Chicago marathon. Then, at the US Olympic Trials marathon in February 2024, I placed second and qualified for Team USA.

I crushed my last predicted marathon pace of the build and set a new course record up Hobble Creek. Made it to Paris, checked into the Village, had fun at the opening ceremony, and traveled to St. Moritz for one last stint of altitude training. What an eventful week!

Week 13 was my last 120 mile week of the build and arguably one of the best weeks of training of my life. You could say all the previous 12 weeks were to build to this moment where I could really push my training to new limits. Big marathon workouts, last long run, lifting, sauna sessions. Eat, run, sleep, repeat. Everything is starting to click. In October 2023, I ran 2:08:00 at the Chicago ma...

Week 12 had my biggest marathon simulation workout of the build-a 12 mile predicted marathon pace workout. It ended up being one of my best marathon simulation workouts I've ever done. 4:47 pace per mile. The week ended with our last 25 mile long run of the build to cap off 120 miles for the week. Almost time to taper. Grateful to train in a beautiful place. Grateful for my village. Grateful fo...

Welcome to week 11 of my 16 week build to the 2024 Paris Olympic Marathon. More miles. More big workouts. Nothing very pretty, just a lot of hard work. Happy to be healthy as I dial in these last few weeks of training. This episode shows a little more insight into all the decision making and the support crew that it takes to compete at the highest level. In October 2023, I ran 2:08:00 at the Ch...

Boston 10k and Team U.S.A processing in week 10 of my 16-week build to the 2024 Paris Olympic marathon. I spent the first part of the week in Boston for a 10k road race. I got absolutely drenched in the downpour on the start line, but what a great event! Flew straight from Eugene to Boston and made it to Hayward Field just in time for the men's 1500m. That was electric. Team U.S.A. processing w...

Gearing up for the Boston 10k this weekend! My workouts this week were shorter than usual for a marathon build. Deceptively difficult. Finding that turnover I need. We've reached a new parenting milestone: my 5 year old can now keep up with me on her bike. So fun to have the girls at the track to cheer me on. Ended the week in rainy Boston! I've been here a lot of times, but this will be my fir...

Halfway to the start line of the 2024 Paris Olympic Marathon! 8 weeks in, 8 weeks to go. I ran my third fatigued mile repeat session of the build, and it was my fastest session yet. I'm feeling grateful for my PT, Scott McKeel, who helped me work through some lower back and glute issues. In this episode you get a little peek into my siblings and their families on a camping trip. I drove up betw...

This was my first 120 mile week of the 16-week build to the Paris Olympic marathon. Seven weeks into the build, the legs were heavy, but the workouts were just what I needed. I struggled on my first workout of the week-an 8-mile uphill tempo-which was a good wake up call. I have work to do to be ready for the hills on the Paris Olympic course. I was able to bounce back and have one of my best 1...

Week 6 of my 16 week build started with race day at the Bolder Boulder 10k on Memorial Day. The roar of the crowd in that stadium finish is surreal! This race was the opportunity I needed to work through pre-race jitters and the mental strength that it takes to stand with confidence on a starting line. Finished in 7th place. I’m hungry for more and I’m committed to these next ten weeks leading ...

I'm not even into long distance running but these episodes are really enjoyable to watch. So motivating and passionate.
16:03 So picturesque!
Hi Clayton! We were interested in doing some content for our Tour similar to this. Do you happen to have the contact info for your videographer?
My name is Andrew storer, and yeah my email is in my RUclips bio !
Yes! You can hit him up at heystorer@gmail.com .
It's so fun to see you run where I lived and ran for years (Boulogne-Billancourt, Meudon, Versailles), this "pavés des gardes" climb that you had to run is a real sucker punch as you said, I am pretty sure that you'll remember it for a while.
Have been loving this series Clayton, it has helped me gain more motivation for my next build and to pencil in some runs in Switzerland at some point! Amazing run in the Olympics too! Cheers from Gold Coast, Australia
Your wife really gets you.
So glad you’re still dropping these episodes! Love seeing every part of the build!
Super Blast, or Nova Blast? Which was Clayton wearing?
I was rocking the Novablast 4s while in Europe. But I do love the Superblast for my long runs!
really appreciate getting to see the rest of the build up. good stuff.
those core suits look crazy!
EPICNESS
Wait so what’s the actual break between the 8 miles and the fatigued repeats ??
Maybe about 10 minutes. Just enough to change shoes and do a few strides and drills.
This series is so incredible
awesome video
Boys looked like they forgot to do the thing at the nuclear power plant and it was going to blow. Great stuff. 😂
What was the altitude thing Clayton was talking about around 10 minutes in? I couldn’t figure it out.
Sooo wild that Conner does his last workout in AF1s and then turns around and runs the race in AF3s lol
Just phenomenal. Your content is my favorite part of the week. Cool to see sauna suits and you talking about sea level. Things I haven’t experienced much but hoping to learn more about if it can improve my running. Great motivation and inspiration for my first marathon in Columbus.
Thanks for watching! Yes, there are a lot of details to this sport, and as a pro you've got to find every percent, but at the end of the day, 90 percent of it is just running with your friends.
@@_Clayton_Young_ Great to hear you say this! The 90% is my favorite part.❤
I'm wondering if that's the same exact pair of orange Sky we see for this whole series or if there have been more than 1.
I have been wearing the same exact pair for the entire build except for my Boston 10K race. I do intentionally so that on race day when I pull out of fresh pear, I can feel the pop even more.
@@_Clayton_Young_ Cool. That's what I thought actually. It seems like 1 pair of Superblast lasted quite a few long runs too. Anyway, congrats on the excellent showing in Paris!
Really easy to root for Clayton
Great series guys and great result to boot....fantastic to follow along
The sauna suits make it look like y'all walked off of a Missy Elliot music video shoot or are about to blow in attic insulation. In seriousness, this whole series has been wonderful. The humility and transparency of it is as beautiful as the shots of the scenery. Thanks for documenting this all! It's been hugely influential in my training and I sing the praises of this series to other runners on the daily. 🤟
Haha, love to hear it. Thanks for sharing the series with others! It makes a big difference. And I am glad it has been helpful in your training!
@@_Clayton_Young_ Best to you in NYC!
How often do you use the altitude tent? Do you think it helps? Thanks.
I have been sleeping at altitude for the last couple of years. I've done some blood testing before and after my builds to track its effectiveness, and I've seen some good results. However, I don't really recommend it to anybody because there are 30 things you should be doing right before you even consider sleeping in an altitude tent.
Thanks @_Clayton_Young_ for the response back. I do appreciate it as your time is valuable. Congrats on the Oly Marathon!! 30 things!!! (curious), LOL
Foot falls are too loud and very annoying! Great footage though.😊
I love the sound of the footfalls. ASMR for a running fan.
That shot in the waterfall was fun 😂.. You guys look like Jesse and Walter in breaking bad..
Dang that painter sure is quick! 😋
awesome video sir
What was the purpose of running in the suites?
Getting the body used to running in the heat.
Yeah, where we were training in Switzerland was cooler than what the race conditions were expected to be in Paris. So we wanted to simulate and prepare for the heat and humidity as much as possible.
Those poor picnickers seeing you guys in the sweat suits are probably thinking, “not another pandemic!”
😂 I love this hahaha
Haha, seriously. I love the double takes we would often get.
Ranked 60 plus and comes 9th in the race. This is what makes the marathon beautiful. It chooses its winners on the day.
Each nation only got 3 runners. So most of the 62 runners ranked above him wasnt running at the olympics. Ethiopa have 20 runners ranked higher than young. And kenya have 28! And like i said they can only send 3 runners per nation.
Othmane el goumri and kenenisa bekele was the only people ranked above him who he beat. The top 8, all ranked above him, and beat him. So youd imagine had the top 63 all been there hed have been closer to 60th
saw a dance performance about a week ago, and one of the two dancers really reminded me of Clayton's form and mannerisms. anxious to see if we will have more Clayton content after week 16, awesum vid as always
so... I've got a future in dance? I'll take it. 😁
Running my first marathon in two weeks and these videos have helped me so much!
Love the videos! My sunday morning pre long run ritual is watching the latest episode
Mantz and Young staring at a waterfall in marshmallow suits is peak
Comedic gold
Looks like a album cover 💿
15:40 needs to be a poster on every kids wall ASAP
Love these episodes
🔥🔥🔥
Was Tamirat Tola one of the names you couldn't pronounce?
You’re looking for something that isn’t there man. Move on.
These videos have been so beautiful and inspiring. Thank you!
So kind. Thanks for watching!
You two made us USA BYU fans so proud! What a great race you guys ran!. The question I hope gets answered in this series is: Did Tola break everyone when he surged, or were Clayton and Connor just cautious about covering a breakaway that far from the finish? IOW, was the difference in fitness, or experience?
That's a great question to ponder... and I am sure my answer will change with time, ur here's my gut answer. There's no doubt that Tola was crazy fit that day. I do think I could have contended for a medal if I had made the right moves, and was a little more aggressive up that last hill... but that's easy to say post race... and I am not positive I could have hung with Tola. We don't know his limit. I do think that if it was more hot and humid my chances would have gone up, and gone up drastically.
@@_Clayton_Young_ Thanks for the response! You ran an awesome race, and I'm glad I stayed up until 2AM to watch it. ;) I suppose these what-if questions are what makes the marathon so fascinating. There are so many unknowns, and every race is different. Congratulations again!
Amen 🙏
Andrew is a spectacular videographer. What an incredible series!!
Clayton saved Mantz' Olympic ambitions with a well-observed "heads up" at the end lol
I thought to myself “huh, the marshmallow man lost some weight” when I saw y’all running in the sauna suits 😂😂
This series has been phenomenal. Just as impressive as the athletes has been the coach.
Cooking meth in new Mexico outfit
The sauna suit is how some people walked around in 2020 🤣
6:52 Even the dog couldn’t catch him 😂😂😂
Been here since episode 3. I am not reasy, can’t believe we’re 1 episode away from finish.😢
Thank goodness for Mantz's running style that you can still tell it's him in a sauna suit! And if you ever run into a trail sign that says waterfall, you 100% follow that sign. And that car at the end was scary!
