    Sage your the man! I completed my first half marathon last week with the help of your videos. My time was 2:15 which I know isn't amazing but its a start. I plan to complete a marathon next and eventually a triathlon. I suffer from depression and running has helped me deal with it. I love your videos you are an inspiration.

    Love it!! I did a similar video on my channel a couple of months ago because I found these workouts so helpful when training for my recent 20 mile race!! I think people really overlook the importance of putting a bit of pace into a long run every now and again and assume just going slowly is all that matters. Super useful video as always sage 👍

    thanks for your training videos man! i incorporated your running tips for my first ironman 70.3 last month and i got 2:32 on my( first ) half marathon. my next goal would be a marathon so i'm binging again on your videos to get more strength in my legs.

    Thanks Sage - I run Halfs regularly and I often over eat (bad at carb loading)... can you post a video on long run feeding (or if any one can comment and add the an old link)!
    Thanks again!!

    Thanks like the negative split run I have my first 50k in two weeks and have one long run (15m) left this weekend and will shoot for negatives on the last 7.

  • @EndaRochford
    @EndaRochford 5 лет назад +5

    I've only started running 10ks this year, once a week. My second half is almost always a negative split as I'm fully warmed up and in the zone by 6-7k

  • @bencze465
    @bencze465 7 лет назад +1

    I am preparing for my second marathon for Vienna next month. This info is pretty cool. I am simply shooting to get under 4 hours for now, a 3:45 to 3:50 if all stars are aligned, but now since a few months I am doing about 70 to 80 km a week and I feel I'm starting to feel comfortable with the many KMs. About time to start to get serious and focus on pace and faster workouts, losing a few more kg and I think I will either make a proper plan for myself or get a coach so I can get some speed for a fall marathon.
    Anyway probably no one cares about my story I'm just saying it's good to get an 'intermediate' level of information about training. I couldn't have used it a year ago but now it starts to make sense, I read too many beginner articles and training plans.

    • @alansamuel2454
      @alansamuel2454 4 года назад

      3:45- 350 is a good target keeping in mind that it's attainable with a bit of hard work.
      BTW did you make it?

    Hey Sage I've been watching your videos for the past month and they're all so informative and helpful to my running. I just raced this past weekend and shaved 17 seconds off my 5k pr with your help. I've been looking through your videos and I may just be overlooking it but I'd really like to see a video on tempo or lactate threshold runs

  • @whizzkidonspeed
    @whizzkidonspeed 7 лет назад +12

    this is pretty much the exact opposite of what I've been doing 18weeks 60-70 miles per week with most long runs hitting about 17miles usually 2mins below marathon pace....marathon is next week we'll see how it goes... well done on 3rd place last weekend- I thought you might do a video on that?

      @GmanMoose 7 лет назад +5

      Yeah there's a big difference between training for a marathon and trying to qualify for Boston. In everything I've read, it seems the goal is to get your mileage up. Obviously doing long runs at higher intensity is inevitable if you want to perform at a level that gets you into Boston, but for the average person who just wants to be a better runner, I think just running more miles is the key. I've seen my wife's ability to run transform before my eyes since she started training for a full marathon. She's running at a faster pace, and for longer distances than she ever has.

    • @whizzkidonspeed
      @whizzkidonspeed 7 лет назад

      nemo76 I should've mentioned this is my 5th marathon and I do 2 hard sessions a week i.e. Vo2 max/thresholds etc

    • @michaelreid322
      @michaelreid322 7 лет назад +1

      That's what the Hansons' method calls for - no run longer than 16 miles. I sort of half-assed followed that plan for my marathon last weekend, and had a great race - never bonked, negative splits, and finished under my time goal. But then I had been running weekend 20 milers before I started following Hansons'.

    • @MrMcGuck
      @MrMcGuck 7 лет назад +1

      I have friends who do 80/20, 80% of mileage is done easy, 20% either lactate threshold, track workouts or tempo. None of the long runs are ever done with any speed work in it and he PR's most of the time and he's a sub 3hr guy.

  • @ropersix
    @ropersix 2 года назад

    Most people training for mountain ultras (which are pretty common), have to get more and more vert into their training, too. And doing that basically bakes intensity into a long run. But...it does make it difficult to track your progress, when the pace and total elevation gain are separate stats, and even elevation gain isn't a complete stat, since you never know the incline. Much easier when pace on a flat course is all you have to deal with, and I wish there was a way to "normalize" runs with inclines, to be able to compare them all.

  • @joaqpani8719
    @joaqpani8719 3 года назад +1

    It would be worth explaining to the public that running below 7 mins per mile in a half marathon or even a marathon takes years of structured and well planned training and discipline and that trying to achieve that sooner may bring serious injuries and chronic fatigue. Just saying!

  • @alwaysuseless
    @alwaysuseless 4 года назад +2

    Excellent advice, which could have been just text. I suppose it's a sign of the times, that it's a video, even though there's no visual information. Main point: If you're training for a long run, some of your training runs need to be long (close to the race distance), with the second half a push to run faster than the first half.

  • @joelwoodruff7326
    @joelwoodruff7326 7 лет назад +11

    Unrelated question? How many miles in your training do you go on a pair of shoes before changing them out? I ask this because your training mileage is a lot and i realize it needs to be. Im working up to a half marathon.

    • @pauljordan6615
      @pauljordan6615 5 лет назад

    • @fastinradfordable
      @fastinradfordable 4 года назад

      I have a pair of Nike Pegasus 35 that I got used last year and have already logged 1200 miles.
      It’s all about the shoes and how you use them.

  • @josephmullenberg4205
    @josephmullenberg4205 5 лет назад

    I do try and do a lot of these types of workouts, but just wondering, would you want to do a type of work put that is a threshold workout for as long as you can? So if my threshold pace is 7:45, just see how many miles I can run at that pace, and regularly extend that when I do those types of runs?

  • @HH-sd1of
    @HH-sd1of 7 лет назад

    okay now I feel bad running over 30km long runs with only 60km weekly mileage :/ I still feel pretty good at the end of the runs and im also absolutely injury free. But how should you feel about those slow pace 10-15k runs, which are not dedicated to intervals, vo2max etc. but nonetheless build up your mileage? I feel kind of lazy running an hour at slow and steady pace...

    hey sage. first off - coming from an Irish person it's pronounced "sh-peel" ☺
    second - have you any experience with road ultras? I'm doing a 40 mile road ultra next month - my key workouts are back to back - 12 miles, 30 miles . I'm doing the 30 miler at close to race pace.
    do you think it's a good idea to do these runs close to race pace?

    hey sage when would be the best time to add the longest long run of week. Is it better to start the week with the long run or end the training week with the long run?

    • @bakrin23
      @bakrin23 7 лет назад +1

      I think ending the week with a longer run is preferred. I downloaded Sage and Sandi's free sample training plan and the "longer" run is typically done on Saturdays.

    • @picsbyshrey
      @picsbyshrey 7 лет назад

      Ulises J-urisesu definitely depends on how you set up your training week. I start weeks on Mondays and so I have Sunday long runs. A Sunday start would typically line up Saturday long run. It is up to you though, neither is particularly better than the other.

      watch this video. It's by a LIT runner named Rashaadh.
      And read the comment given by the Nick E-L in the same video below.
      Don't worry 2:40 is a very very easy target.
      I think with good training you can go down to a 2:30 in about 1 to 2 months.

    • @alansamuel2454
      @alansamuel2454 4 года назад

      I started as 2:35 almost 4 years ago and now I have a 2:20 PB. Hoping to get a sub 2:20 soon.

    • @alansamuel2454
      @alansamuel2454 4 года назад

      And maybe you should try your shot at higher distances. Maybe you're better at long distance , the 800 m is middle distance.

  • @VickyT1713
    @VickyT1713 5 лет назад +1

    Meeting my sub 4hr target and also attaining my first marathon with no injury were possible due to this marathon training “Zοrοtοn Axy” (Google it). The book provides a lot of good information about training, diet, technique, and so on. but the very useful page in the whole book is the training schedule which informs you how far to run on what day. .
