I love this series! It is so motivating. It’s really cool you are making a kind of new content for runners that hasn’t really been made before. It’s down to earth, fun, and entertaining. But it also includes real data, tips, and training advice!
So true!! Stitches are often due to dehydration so having some water can prevent and help! I've just done a half marathon and my water bottle was a LIFESAVER :)
Hey Emma! During my first marathon training I only ate goo during my long runs and during my marathon my stomach got SO upset and I grabbed some pretzels from the sidelines after feeling like I was dying. I definitely recommend incorporating some salty carbs (like pretzels) during your long runs :) keep up the awesome job! I'm currently training for marathon number 3 and your series makes me feel like I have a training buddy!
Oh wow #3! I did my first marathon 7 years ago and It beat me up so bad. Looking to do one again in the future If i feel i can best my old time. Wish you the best on your training!
In all honesty, none of these goos can do what a simple (piece of) banana does for you during long runs. Sometimes I'd use nuts, salted or unsalted. Keeping it simple and natural was the answer to all my stomach issues while running.
Longest run I’ve ever done is 13.3 miles. Don’t worry about running for an extra hour lol. I used to think that all the time during training. But somehow it just happens.
AWESOME running loved it, it's amazing how every distance of running can be tough, I did 50miles the other weekend, but running 1 mile fast is super hard. I shared that run on my channel, as you said it's more mental than physical.
A good rule for long runs and gels is to take one every 45 minutes! I do that when I run for anything longer than an hour and it really helps. Also I’d definitely get a belt that holds water bottles and take a couple ounces every 30 mins, especially with the gels. Really enjoyed watching these videos and looking forward to seeing the rest of your training!
Good run Emma, can’t believe you didn’t take water with you, you should definitely have some water at the half way point, so you don’t dehydrate also the water helps u drink the jel, don’t forget to have a green smoothie drink straight after your long run to replace the nutrients & electrolytes, an excellent smoothie i have is, I’ve been doing some 3 hour runs, smoothie helps for sure, coconut water, with banana, some dates, tsp spirulina , linseed, some green leafy veg like kale, hand full of nuts & raisins, some other fruit in season like, blueberries or mango are top, good luck with the long runs :-)
Your heart rate was high probably because you were dehydrated. Easiest way to bonk in a marathon: not drinking enough early in the race. Speaking from (recent) experience. Humans can go weeks without food but only a few days without water!
@saladnuts ok i do it on the regular so yup its completely possible in 90+ dagrees but this is high level shit we are talking about not gonna make sense to a normal person training for fun
Put watee in your trunk if you dont want to carry any that way you can run out for part of the run then back to your car for water. I usually run an hour before consuming water or gels
Nice work! Came for the long run, stayed for the nose blowing 😂 I think you're supposed to have gels or carb drink around every 30 minutes. Nutrition can be one of the hardest things to pin down, so good luck with that part of your training!
My coach once said that if you can't afford to travel to high altitude regions for training, just practice breathing only through your nose during your runs.
Good thing, but let me tell you a little bit about training in high altitudes. To explaining this quickly, the body creates more red blood cells when the absence of oxygen is low to be able to carry the oxygen needed by the body. In high altitudes, there is less molecules of oxygen, so it takes about two weeks to the body to make changes to the body. The point is that your body need to be exposed 24 hours to this condition to make the changes. If you just breath through your nose or use those mask when you train for two hours, the body won't create the changes of high altitude because the other 22 hours of your day you get enough oxygen.
Blimey. What a big Millennial fuss about nothing! I started running 8 months ago and regularly run for over 2 hours without thinking about it - on roads and cross-country trails (harder). Slice of toast with peanut butter and off I go. No foam rolling or foot massage, no gels or liquids. Just Do It.
Hey, maybe instead of dad flexing offer some advice? She is clearly working hard and trying to sort out her nutrition. Everyone's metabolism is different. She wants to perform well. Train smarter not harder.
I hate people like this. She’s doing something really healthy and something that’s good for her and you are just trying to ruin it with your stupid ideas. Leave her alone. Let her do her thing.
What’s the longest run you’ve ever done?
1 hour and 20 mins ;)
17hrs 🤣
45 minutes
2 hours and 30 minutes
1 hr 40 mins

"We gonna be grindin' all summer let's get fit fellas!"
-Emma Abrahamson, 2019
ICONIC.
OMG you're running two hours without water?!!? GIIRRLLL bring water! It'll completely change your fatigue. Such a great job pushing through though!
So true!! Stitches are often due to dehydration so having some water can prevent and help! I've just done a half marathon and my water bottle was a LIFESAVER :)
hell yeah...always psyched to see a new emma abrahmson video...always trying to get after it...holla fellas!!!!!!!!!!!
You are funny and hardworking Emma, thank you for your light hearted videos.🤸🏻♀️
You should def do a video breaking down your foam rolling/stretching/recovery routine!
You are my inspiration for cross country summer mileage😂😂 can’t wait to see how you do in the marathon fella!
Almost didnt make it to the bathroom on my long run this morning (17miles). I usually avoid McDonalds bathrooms, not today . Hahaha this is fitness.
I love your personality! And thank you so much for making these videos. I find them really interesting and inspiring!

“yeah i’m not running twenty miles”😂
Foam rolling before a 2hr run is hardcore imo 😀😀 Btw your hair is fab.
What do you listen to when you run? Loving these news vlogs, running a half marathon in October and you're so inspiring! xx
I’m also running the Chicago marathon!
Thank you for sharing your journey!! I’m running Chicago too, and it will also be my first!
You are phenomenal!!
Good run Emma, can’t believe you didn’t take water with you, you should definitely have some water at the half way point, so you don’t dehydrate also the water helps u drink the jel, don’t forget to have a green smoothie drink straight after your long run to replace the nutrients & electrolytes, an excellent smoothie i have is, I’ve been doing some 3 hour runs, smoothie helps for sure, coconut water, with banana, some dates, tsp spirulina , linseed, some green leafy veg like kale, hand full of nuts & raisins, some other fruit in season like, blueberries or mango are top, good luck with the long runs :-)

People dry fast for beyond 14 days we do fine under proper circumstances just like with no food
Also longest medical supervised fast is 360+ days look it up
@saladnuts ok i do it on the regular so yup its completely possible in 90+ dagrees but this is high level shit we are talking about not gonna make sense to a normal person training for fun
@saladnuts no no no i said competitive strava says it all my friend good day to you !!
Just wait until you eat a gel at mile 23 during the marathon. It’s the most life-changing experience
@Zayne simard moore whats a gel
Were you in Monterey this Monday? I swear I saw someone who looked just like you
Good job girl! Pat yourself on the back!👟💕I love long runs! If I would have been around I would have loved to run with you and cheer you on!
Where are the good San Diego spots to run? I’m here until Friday.
Put watee in your trunk if you dont want to carry any that way you can run out for part of the run then back to your car for water. I usually run an hour before consuming water or gels
I’m confused how does she only have 48k ??
Try Huma gels! Very good and all natural. Also Nuun in your water before and after!
Lol you captured the emotional journey of the long run very very well ! 😄
You can turn your phone notifications off when doing an activity :) or just in general if you prefer.
15km (1.5) Hours
Great videos, ty!
0:02 no
Is there any way of getting the SoleHealers in the UK? They look like just what I need but can’t seem to find them anywhere in the UK 😫
Try Spring Energy gels they are made from real food
water water water! anything over an hour and water is a must for me
Longest I’ve ever run is 15 miles, but I live in Texas so I have to start no later than 6:00 to beat the heat.
My longest run is 13.11 miles, a half marathon XD
Is it okay to run in the same area most times or is it better to switch it up?
What app do you use to check your mileage on your phone? or do you use a fitbit or apple watch? Also, YOU'RE AMAZING
She uses a Garmin, which is a type of watch specifically for physical activity but it has an app that connects to your phone :)
Love the snot release🤣🤣🤣
70k. although it was more like 50 + 5 + 5 + 5 + 5 with 3-5 minutes breaks after finishing every loop.
"Yum, this is exactly what I wanna eat" 😆
Also, what is your marathon training schedule?
You definitely need to be drinking water. I will help with the fatigue so much. Look into the different types of water bottles/packs.
For long runs, you should consider putting your phone on airplane mode. Those notifications can really take you out of the "zone".
Mariana Ramos yup I definitely put mine on do not disturb mode. I get pissed when I forget and when I’m running and get a call haha
I miss the intro 😭😂
Nice work! Came for the long run, stayed for the nose blowing 😂 I think you're supposed to have gels or carb drink around every 30 minutes. Nutrition can be one of the hardest things to pin down, so good luck with that part of your training!
You should fuel every like 45 mins on the long runs. I'd take 2 gels next time!
12k
13.1!
I want that jacket

Omg drink water. Those gels will kill you without water.
I think 3 people accidentally missed the like button
You gotta drink water with the gu's Emma
Not trying to flex 🤣
you better be wearing sunscreen!!
instead of sole healers, just wear crocs!!
You are beautiful ❤
How often did you fart during this long run? Because you blew your nose twice.

Well aren't you special
@@jbatcha21 No I'm not. That's my point.
