Another great important video, Jane!!! 2022 was literally one of the best years of my life with my commitment to running and having you as my coach and all the things I learned! What an adventure. I think it took a year of experimentation and trial and error as well as my body adapting to this new lifestyle. I would add, don’t be afraid to reorganize your goals. What may be the main goal you start out with can shift over time and you may discover other avenues you’d like to check out on the way. Life’s one big journey and you’re the driver! Explore it all and see what works for YOU!!! Looking forward to another awesome year with you Coach!
Could not love this more, Shane. To have you say it was one of the best years of your life is amazing. And yes, shifting goals is such an important point. Sometimes we realize the goals we set are based on what we *think* we're supposed to be focusing on vs. what we actually want to focus on. I'm looking forward to another awesome year with YOU!
Hi Jane. I have run cross country at the high school level and have coached cross country at this level for 8 years. I am presently 60 years old. I love your channel. I find your advice sound and motivating, especially for the marathon. I am presently weeks away from the Eugene Marathon and watch your videos to help keep me in check with a sense of perspective. All the best to you and thank you!
That's awesome you coach cross country! I would love to do that some day... So glad you've found the videos helpful and best of luck at Eugene! Do you live in Oregon? That's where I'm originally from and where most of my relatives live.
@@runningwithjane , I live in Seattle but love heading down to Oregon. Good luck at Boston!
I never got the chance to thank my high school cross country coach, Mr O'Neil, so I'll thank you instead. Cross country taught me so much about myself, and set me up to love running and fitness for life. I was the only girl on my small school's Jr High/High School team, and when we went to bigger schools with full boys and girls teams, he would insist I race with the boys, as I trained with the boys, instead of being thrown alone into a group of girls, because he knew I'd be more comfortable. It always confused and ticked off the other coaches, but he had my back. When I'm going on a long run, and reach for a crappy meal beforehand, I fondly remember his eye rolling frustration hearing our terrible lunch choices, and I reach for something better. I only remember 1 teacher's name for positive reasons throughout my school years, and he's it. You do make a difference in kids lives and development, on the trails and off.
@@Kelly_Ben That's such a wonderful story to hear how your cross country coach made such a wonderful difference in your life. My own cross country coach made a tremendous difference in my life. He was really tough, a West Point graduate and a major in the army. We had double practices on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, first practice at 6:00am. Some days, it was 8 miles in the morning with a 10 miler for the afternoon workout. All this in the heat of Honolulu. The thing I learned most from my coach is that you can do so much more than you ever thought you could. I hope your runs are as wonderful as when you were running cross country.
I had a one hour phone conversation last night regarding this topic . Where my strength lies compared to my shortcomings . Perfect timing for this video . Thank you !
You're so welcome, Ric! Certainly we are all evolving as humans, recognizing where we can improve and just doing what we can to get 1% better each day!
Great video.
Not sure where this fits in, maybe Perspective , but a good saying I like is this one. " Comparison is the thief of joy". Not just comparing ourselves to others, but to our younger selves. At 65, I sometimes slip into looking back at how good(fast) I used to be, and honestly it can be a bit depressing ... then I snap out of it and look at what I CAN do at my age, and am back to being grateful that I can still run at pretty high level in age group.
Thanks for your videos, I know they have been helpful in many runners, old and new, in reaching their personal goals.
Totally get that, Thomas! I work with a few athletes who were on the track team in high school and fast...and now, similar to your age, are trying to just be the best they can be in distance running knowing those times are long gone. Agree it falls under perspective...very few 65-year-olds can do what you do!!
9: Remember to have fun
100% TRUEEEE
Thanks for the good content Jane. Very practical and thought provoking. Cheers
You're welcome, Jennifer - appreciate you watching and commenting!
I swear you made this video just for me. If there was ever a time when I needed to hear what you had to say, this was it. I go from being confident to being full of self-doubt. But I just keep doing the work and pushing forward. One nice thing about having a Garmin is been able to look back at where I was a year ago and realizing what a better position I am in right now compared to a year ago. Patience is nothing a virtue I have but yet I know I have to have it. Thanks for all you do Jane.
Aww you're so welcome, Dan!! Thanks for always showing up and putting in the work!! I PROMISE this is the number one key. It's not always going to go perfect and some days are going to be physically or emotionally tough, but one foot in front of the other on good days and bad and big things will happen!
Learning some TOUGH lessons in flexibility in this current phase. Mentally, physically and emotionally. Working on it. Thanks Jane!
Ugh, injuries are so hard and I know you're in the thick of it as we speak. Right in line with your motto of adjust, adapt, achieve...so much more greatness to come for you, Remy, and when it does...damn, it's gonna be so sweet.
Awesome video, I'm glad I found your channel! I'm 39 and have been running the best in my life right now. In the last month I broke my PR for 5k and Half marathon. Keep up the great work!
Congrats on that progress! I'm glad you found the channel, too - welcome!! What race is next for you?
Great video. Flexibility has always been a struggle for me. With all the things between two jobs, the family and putting RUclips content together, sometimes things get in the way of whatever is on the running plan. I convince myself that not following the plan 100% of the time will mean I won’t reach my goals
Appreciate you sharing what you know you can work on, Matt. It is very tough to be flexible when you have to keep all the balls up in the air without dropping one. Sometimes rigidity is good...equals self-discipline, but that can also take the fun out of something this is supposed to be our hobby. And yes, as people who are not making money from our running, family and work always come first!
Oh wow, the one thing I could work on is "perspective", cause I originally started this "running thing" to just be healthier and lose a few pounds to help with my arthritis/mobility issues. When I was 48, my doctor didn't actually think I could make it to "early retirement" at 55 , but I did and retired 2 years ago, I will be 58 in March. I've had a different doctor for the last 7 years, and she is "OK with my running. She questioned my signing up for a marathon when I was 55, with a simple question: "Do you think that's a wise decision?" That was the year marathons were cancelled. Yes, Coach Jane, "thank you" for the videos. Sure, I want to run 10 miles in a race with you, at your pace, that's a definite win for me!!! Perspective is probably more like: any day that I can go for a run, is a win.
Agree that we should all be grateful for the ability to get out there and do what we love!
Such a helpful video about mindset and behaviors that help us be more successful regardless of where we are in our running journey. For me, the risk/prudence balance is tough and a big focus for me this year as I focus primarily on building mileage safely instead of race specific training. It’s definitely way more prudence than I’m used to and I also am excited to see how my racing goes this year without a race specific plan/peak to go along with them. I know the end goal of racing my first full marathon next year will be worth the wait this year and I also like your idea of still pushing hard in some of these races if all the stars align (ie don’t play it too safe). Thanks again for the helpful tips!
I agree! I actually experienced this in my race this weekend...26.2 miles to make these decisions haha...with the weather I knew I had to be careful but then after the fact I wondered if I held back too long. So yes, it's a constant battle of doing too much vs. not doing enough. You are smart to think about safely building mileage and pulling back on the racing. That's so exciting you'll be running your first marathon...which one are you doing?
@@runningwithjane yes, You’re so right it applies to racing in such an amplified way, not just training! I have my sights set on the Route 66 Marathon in Tulsa OK. It has a great reputation for fun, crowd support, and loving first timers 😍
@@runcationdreaming5822 That sounds perfect!
Great video Jane - very insightful and highlighting the key traits to success for how that is defined. I like all of them but especially the one about resilience and the fact the success is never a straight line. Consistency is also key as part of what you said in the first point around self discipline.
100% if you don't keep showing up the forward progress gets difficult. But also, consistency through the majority of the year makes it much easier to bounce back from a season of life where it may not be an option to keep up that consistency. And therein lies the resilience and ebbs and flows of progress! Thanks for the thought-provoking comment, Mark!
Thanks for sharing the great insights. I can definitely work on several of those. Cheers
You're so welcome, Jeff! I think we all can work on at least a few!
Great advice all around not just for running 😊
Thank you - and agreed.
Such great advice, thank you!
You're so welcome, Joe!
Brené Brown vs Asimov ("Spell My Name with an S")...OK, this is a rather obscure reference to the question of how little really matters and chaos theory. More to the the point, Kristian Blumenfeldt was making the following important observation which I recently viewed and aligns well with yours.: "Injury prevention and consistency is key, because there is no single key session". If he can trust the process, so can I.
I will admit the reference was lost on me, but looked up that book and the plot sounds super interesting! And yes, it ALL matters and all adds up. When progress and adaptations are sometimes slow (and unseen to the human eye), it's easy to lose sight of that fact and think it isn't working. Appreciate your comment, Ralph!
Another great video! Thanks for your insights.
You're so welcome...thanks for always supporting the channel, Karla!
Love this video. Thank you Jane.
You're so welcome!
Great insight Jane, can’t wait until Chicago Marathon this year!
SAME! Will be so much fun, Tom!
I like to push myself but I am also averse on taking risk when it comes to running. That said my biggest flaw is that I probably run too fast on easy days. I tried for a year to do Heart Rate Training but then ended up with a slow and disappointing marathon. It was not disappointing because of the time but rather that I felt I had more in the tank and so lost an opportunity to have a better PB.
After that I started to train for a 10k and improved both my 10k PB as well as a Half by about 15%.I am aware that this might also a result of running pretty slow for nearly a year but I just don't know. As a solo runner I do easy running just so that I do not have to put effort in it like in Tempo or Threshold because running with low heart rate I have to watch over it like a hawk and that's no fun.
This marathon training I did some Hot Spots (long runs with marathon paces in it) and I like that I need push myself when I am exhausted so I can learn how to no mentally check out which is what happens to me during my past marathons. I will see in 2 weeks if that works out.
No doubt your improved times were due to running slower (with increased volume I'd guess). Volume is the biggest predictor of success in the half/full and helps a ton too, in the 5k and 10k. So a marathon in a couple weeks then? Best of luck to you!!
