I don't have any ideas for the next "Training Talk Thursdays", but I just wanted to comment on the hilariously funny intros! I'm coming back from a slight "injury", more like me stepping back in order to not get injured and hoping that 3 weeks of no running didn't affect my endurance that much. I was extremely consistent (50-60 mile weeks), but now I'm lacking motivation. These videos are helping me get back on track! Awesome job on everything overall! It's always good to learn and "pick your brain" with these training talks. Thank you and good luck beating Kilian! Really rooting for you, man.
Training Talk Topic Idea: Getting sick during your marathon training. I'm going for a sub 3 marathon, doing good in my training, running the most weekly miles in my life, getting some good workouts in, and only a month away from my race I get sick. Not super sick, but my body is definitely fighting something off. Should I just do easy runs until the cold goes away or take days off? This could apply to getting a minor injury/pain as well. Thanks!
One rule is if your sickness is below your neck, lungs or body, you should rest. But if the sickness is all above your neck only, nasal or face, then you could resume to light exercise. www.abc.net.au/health/talkinghealth/factbuster/stories/2014/09/02/4079324.htm
Hey Sage! As an XC and track runner, I love to run long. If there were longer races in XC and Track I would do them. Unfortunately, however I am certainly at a disadvantage when it comes to anaerobic speed and power. If I am next to someone with 100 to go I rarely win the sprint to the line. In XC, I just can't get off the line quick enough to avoid being boxed in. So my Training Talk question would be regarding how to build anaerobic speed and power to benefit performance in any distance race.
I think that some things you should look at are sprints, and also dynamic effort squats and deadlifts. They are weightlifting movements which might look quite a lot like the start of a sprint. Dynamic effort means you train them for power (explosive reps) instead of trying to lift maximally.
Training topic: I would love to hear your thoughts on training by Heart rate and using the HADD method. Great videos and channel, one of my favourites.
thanks dude training for my first marathon next month done 4 half's this year actually done 2 back to back the last 2 weeks my times have improved especially the half times from about 6;30 pace down too 5;50 pace over that distance been running a couple of 100 km weeks been hitting 30 km long run at least every fortnight and yep pace was about 6'30 pace and down too 6;03 pace last 30 km run felt strong I follow up with 3 km of short sprints and speed work as I haven't covered the distance of say 35 or 36 km in the past 6 months feeling a bit paranoid about the extra kms and just hoping to hang on towards the end but feel pretty strong with say 31+32 km at about 6 minute pace just hope the high mileage the last 3 months stands me in good order my goal -pace I hope is about 4'30 or 5 hr finish but yeah will see on the day
I love your vids. I don't have a hill and my work schedule basically limits me to running on a treadmill. Can you post a vid of how to train on a treadmill. Please include hill workouts, tempo runs and intervals.
Training Talk Topic Idea: What do you think about during training and racing? Do you use imagery to see yourself winning or to move away from the pain. How do you get into the FLOW?
Hey Sage, great intros ! :) when i train for a race i will train more intensly starting like 2 months before the race. (4 to 5 trainings a week). Is it ok that i train 2 to 3 times out of this period and build my piek up when i have a marathon. The thing is i want to do some cycling combined with running.
Question for you sage. I am kind of a gigantic runner for my competition level at around 170-175lbs, I am making my Marathon debut in November and I would like to get close to the Trials standard (lifelong dream). Being so big though and running 100-130mpw all through college and now, combined with a leg length inequality has really begun to take it's toll on me. I'd like to train in Hoka's because I know they will reduce the strain but I don't want to sell out by doing so. My fear is that after running big volume in shoes like that, my body won't respond well to being in raceday footwear for shorter races (because I still have aspirations on the track). Do you think I'm being too stubborn and how do you feel about dropping down into spikes or low stack flats for shorter stuff after so many miles in huge shoes?
Hey Sage. I've got a marathon coming up in about three weeks and it'll be my second this year but I've picked up a quad injury and have been resting it for a few weeks. Any tips for getting ready for the marathon, I'd normally be tapering about now.

Best intro to date.
I agree. That should be the intro to Training Talk Thursdays.
I'm in 2019... still best intro thus far. Not done bingeing though

Awesome opener! How about a video on pacing during the marathon? Start off slow, fast, same pace the whole race...soo many opinions, so little time.

love your videos sage!!! keep it up!
I'd like to see videos where you just talk about different runs and events you have taken place in. I find this kind of thing motivational
I love your vids. I don't have a hill and my work schedule basically limits me to running on a treadmill. Can you post a vid of how to train on a treadmill. Please include hill workouts, tempo runs and intervals.
Love the intro =)
Thanks Sage!

I wish sage was my spirit animal
Hi Sage! Can you make a video discussing marathon training for beginners (training for 1st marathon)? Tips and recommended training plans to follow?
Hey Sage great video !

How long is each "period". Base period, quality period, etc ?

hello sage,
what sort of power drills do you recommend? how often should i do these power drills?
Your intros rock😀

Have you ever seen the rain?
Good intro man
Hey Sage! Currently upping mileage in base phase to around 70mpw. Long singles or mix in some doubles? Better recovery with the shorter doubles?
Is it just me or did that intro sound like hunters music from the office?
