    XC is unique because sometimes even the fastest runner might be beaten if they don't have a good race. Great tips on how to get better for cross country!

      You also have to prepare mentally, the mental preparation is just as important as the physical preparation. Last kilometer is such a mind over matter.

    UK and US cross country should almost be considered different sports. American courses look like a dream to run on, just perfect flat grass, no mud in sight

      Yeah not ideal. Although last UK XC season the first half was nice and dry

      depends on the state for sure but there are some pretty bad courses by us too.

      I run xc and there’s loads of hills and mud and I live in Michigan and have traveled to many states and it’s mostly hilly and muddy as well

    You should make a video covering float recovery (when to do it, why it’s beneficial, etc). I think it has risen to popularity over the past few years and it would be nice to see why it’s gained so much traction

      I'll try to, I love floats but I'll need to know the science behind why it's so good. Which I'd need to learn more

    My races in Scotland always take place in the same area, basically at the start there is 50 metres of flat grass/mud then a giant incline of mud and rocks, leading to a flat surface for about 350 metres, then steep downhill straight into another hill then it’s flat for the last mile or so. But it always rains on the day, so it kinda ends up like a swamp 😂
    I’ve got a race in 2 months but I’ve been ill so I’m trying to get back in shape in time for the race, but I’m really just going to be there for the fun.

    Yeah, XC really is different. I get beaten by guys who I consistently beat on the roads. I’m doing some specific XC training at the moment with sessions like the ones in your video, on hilly grass courses.

    • @Trackstaa_
      @Trackstaa_  Год назад +1

      Same here. Well depending on the course. The drier and the flatter with less turns. The results are closer to those on the roads

      @@Trackstaa_ it is, it's the most grueling version of running, or any activity you could probably go through (in terms of how uncomfortable you feel during the race) It's never "wow I feel great after running this race!"

    What do you think are the best XC spikes atm?

    • @Trackstaa_
      @Trackstaa_  Год назад +1

      I use dragonfly, I haven't tried any other super spikes on XC. But dragonfly's are for sure better than any XC spike

    become a 1500M runner you'll get good at XC
