Secret service???
You have a great resume.
I've been waiting for this vid love you ❤
Ofc!
“Growing older is a privilege denied to many”
Exactly. It’s hard to realize sometimes but it’s really such a gift to grow old. Too many don’t get that chance
Trust me I know, ha
You’re incredible
growing old is depressing
Michelle, I don't watch you because you can climb or run or dance or workout.
I watch you because of your mental strength and your fearlessness in being honest about your emotions during your challenges.
Awww
I swear she have me in tears of joy ❤😅 nobody touched my soul how she did I cant wait to meet her & her hug one day . The motivation she have will change your mind on giving up
My thoughts exactly. My favourite video yet was the one where she did 911 dispatch and had to deliver a (fake) baby over the phone. Nothing to do with physical strength or even appearance at all, but still a quintessentially Khare video.
Wow
this!!
"Thank you for running with me" TEARS INSTANTLY. This was incredibly inspiring
Ya
Fun fact: you comment before Michelle and still.get more likes
Me too!
Same
Guys for anyone who doesn’t know….
The comment that’s username is Michelle saying to talk to her on telegram ITS A SCAM DO NOT FALL FOR IT
I've got diagnosed with cancer a couple of months before turning 30. I'm ok now, but I've lost too many friends who had the same cancer and were my same age. Don't be afraid to get old Michelle. Getting old is a privilege that not everyone has.
I'm so sorry for your loss, my love. I'm so glad you're still here. You're a gift to us!
@@clairemann2 thank you so much 🙏
So many people get scared of aging but in fact, it is so beautiful. The lessons and wisdom you gain along the way, figuring out who you are, what you love, and who to surround yourself with, experiences and opportunities, and so much more. I cried towards the end watching you finish this-let’s embrace this beautiful new chapter of your life, Michelle!!!
@@memm7846 oh I agree for sure!
i cried too, totally agree
♡
Lovely words. Aging is in fact a beautiful thing 💛
The only things that should age in life are cheese, wine and whiskey.
“I feel like the pandemic took so much of my twenties from me” yes. 1000% yes. I’m turning 27 in Feb and I have this impending feeling of running out of time. This is amazing and inspired me to continue enjoying the life I’m being given in this world. Thank you Michelle
I turned 20 the week before the world shut down and I feel completely robbed of my early 20s...thank you Michelle for sharing and inspiring us all
Same here. I was at the peak of my running journey right before the pandemic hit, training for my first half marathon, best shape of my life.
3 years later and I’m still not back to that place. I’m 28.
Still trying, and never gave up.
i feel similar i’m almost 17 and i feel like a lot of my pivotal teenager years were stolen
i turned 23 and 24 in the pandemic and yea it felt like my time was taken, but life doesn't end at 30... Im 25 now and using this time until 30 to set my self up and we're both still far from leaving youth so lets just do what we can and live life as best as possible. Im excited to see how good my life is.
To anyone who feels like your 20s or teens were robbed.... life doesnt end after your 20s, at 30 you can even enjoy life a lot more as long as you live with a purpose. Take care of your body and your mind, your mental health, you'll be fine. we all have an expiration date so don't let a number hinder your ability to act.
Funny how most of the people who are saying this also were pro lockdowns.
I was fine until Garrett started running with you. Then came the tears. You are a remarkable person, Michelle. Well done.
Yeah me too
Same! 😭
Yap me too 😭😭
Omg I thought I was just having a moment 🥹
yupppp
When Garrett joined in it brought tears to my eyes! They fully support each other. It is amazing!
This is my favorite video you’ve ever made. I related so much because I turned 30 this year too
Hey Austen!
Hi
@@skettlez9732 hello 👋
Good to see y'all backing each other up!!!
I'm 24 and turning 25 this year. If anything I think I'm more excited than ever for the adventures and endeavors I'll step into based on all the skills and personal growth I'm accumulating now.
Thanks Michelle, Molly Kawahata, Louis Rossman, and Linus Sebastian for sharing your personal journeys and giving me and others a sneak peak into the next decade of life.
Age is just a number, Michelle. Even if you can't do these crazy stunts one day, no one can ever take your amazing fighting spirit away from you. I'm so impressed by how you pushed to 30 miles. You have way more to you besides your athletic ability.
Edit: clarifying that I meant 'age is just a number' in an encouraging way. Not sure why that's being taken out of context when this video is clearly about aging and worrying about declining physical ability.
Don’t say age is just a number bro that’s not a good sentence fr
*ruclips.net/video/mCfYi7634rU/видео.html*
Finally it's here after so long
age is just a number?🤨
@@idk9778 fr that’s what I’m saying
ya’ll they meant it in an encouraging way, literally the entire point of the video is that Michelle is/was scared about turning 30 and just getting older in general and working to overcome that, they are saying something that is also reflected in the video, age is just a number (at least when you’re older), it doesn’t reflect your ability to do things (that phrase has been used in bad ways before but it isn’t necessarily bad and certainly isn’t in this context)
You ran FIFTY DAMN KILOMETRES through DEATH VALLEY. Age means nothing, your looks and body do not define you, it’s your heart, your will, and your drive that people will always value. Damn, you’re a badass.
yes
Exactly!!!❤
*age means nothing*
Famous last words
Also she looks much younger and her body is still in great shape.
"I don't know who I am if I'm not the person who can do these things." Michelle, thank you for sharing your heart. But girl, you are SO MUCH MORE than what you DO. Actions are only a reflection of what's inside! You're an amazing person and that's never gonna change. We love you!!
This was crazy Michelle!! You’re a total badass!!
Yoooo
It was honestly awesome
Two of my most favorite channels! Ekk!
Yes theoryyyyyy omg
You guys need to collab!!!!
When she started to talk about how the pandemic stole part of her 20’s it instantly made me wanna cry because I feel so much of that and I have so much resentment but all I can do is what she said, take it back
I feel too that the pandemic robbed me of my 30's, now I'm closest to 40's and I'm in crisis T.T
@@debbieaguilar5498 You will KILL it in your years before 40, and ofc. after. You got this, Debbie :) Age is just a number. Give the "numbers" thing the middle finger.
@@thanossnap4170 aww so sweet, thank you
Pandemic rob some of my teenage years and goals to do Muay Thai, I’m literally 19 doing mostly body weight exercise at home
It always depends on the way you look at it. Many gained weight, while I lost it, many were locked up for a long time, I was able to play all the games I missed because of work.
When you said "I want to do 30" I got instant tears.... you are so strong and an inspiration!!!!! And yes ma'am you are a BADASS!!!!!!!!
Definitely!!
@@PraveenSrJ01 Omg so did i, im literally in tears rn wondering if anyone else did too
BADASS CHAIN!!
Same!!!
@@MarsBars88BADASS !!!
Balling my eyes out right now. As someone who’s run almost 100 marathons and half marathons in my 20’s and 30’s, my body finally gave out at 38. I’ve had 2 major hip surgeries this past year and now I’m dealing with really bad knee problems. I’m not sure I’ll ever be the runner I once was, but I really have to learn that it’s ok to slow down. It’s ok to run only 3 miles. It’s ok to walk. I’m still a runner.
And congratulations to you on this amazing thing you’ve done! You’re a badass!
I know that some people like to run but why do people push themselves so much to where it messes up the body? That's not good. I mean a little running is ok but why do that to yourself? Is it really necessary?
As a 27 year old woman who is terrified of 30, Michelle you are beyond inspiring. I found myself encouraging you which made me realize I should be doing the same for myself. It’s never too late for anything. A lot of things you just assume is too late to learn or do but it’s not.
It's all about the journey. At least for folks in their 20's they can be terrified of 30 but push through it and have fun / learn more / grow. As someone very close to 40, I'm hopefully smarter then I was in my 20's, I feel like I am anyways.
It's the young kids who have lost development time (time at school, time outside, learning things) that I feel bad for - they don't know what they've lost and still have to catch up. At least 20 something folks can realize and do that thinking themselves.
@@Daphoid that’s extremely true, I just have to keep reminding myself that.
30 is young. I wish I could be 30 again.
30s are the best!
Get a grip. One day you will be dead, turning 30 is a blip in that journey
I felt this so much. And when you said "the pandemic stole so much from me", it made me start crying. I just turned 27. And the pandemic stole so much of my life. It ruled the entire beginning of my adulthood. And there are so many times I feel like I will not be able to do things I want to do now. And hopefully I can start reminding myself that I'm able to.
You are. We've got this!!
21 here and same story. It's a process.
I’m 16 and it feels as if the pandemic stole away part of my childhood in a way that part def made me tear up
Same here I'm turning 20 in a few months
I can relate to this. I’m 32 with a compromised immune system and the last two years were super rough. I’m looking forward to be able to get out there and doing more in the years to come
I never expected this video to make me as emotional as it did. I can feel the fear and pain in Michelle's voice for turning 30 and I just want to hug her and say "you can do anything and take back anything! It just may be done differently." Not only that but I'm only 22 (just turned on Sept. 19) and I realize how useless I've been. I've done nothing and 30 will come and go and I'll still be sitting here. Thank you Michelle. In the short time I've watched your channel, you've inspired me to just do it. Try something new and take back my time... even if I do have to do it differently, it can be done :)
OMG i just turned 22 on September 19th too hahaha
What a great video. Upmost respect.
I am 35 years old. Turning 30 is/was over-dramatized, for the wrong reason. Physically, mentally, spiritually.... nothing changes that instant you turn 30, or 40, or any other age for that matter. What turning 30 does, as any other landmark age, is remind you of your mortality. You reminisce how hard you could party, how late you could stay up, how quick you could recover from a hangover or how physically you're not what you use to be. You get so caught up in daily life with work, family, friend/relationships, etc. Its all consuming and you don't take the time to stop or slow things down and reflect on what you've accomplished, where you're at, where you're going. Before you know it, boom, you're 30! Your youth is slowly fading away... and there's absolutely nothing you can do about it.
Turning 30 isn't scary because you're turning 30. Turning 30 is a reminder of time. A reminder of things you haven't done that you've wanted to do. Things you regret. It's a reminder that you can't take back time.
Turning 30 is awesome. Turning 30 is awesome because you start finding in yourself what you're made of. And this video helps to show that.
exactly, i took up cycling when i hit 30, now i'm 31 and i'm healthier than ever before
31.1 Miles is AMAZING 🙌 Great work
Thank you so much Rocky!!!
HI ROCKY :D
HI ROCKY
Rocky?!
@@MichelleKhare hii
Aww Garrett running with her made me cryyy. And ALL the support from each individual member on her team, is so positive. Really goals. Good job.
I just turned 21 when the pandemic started, and now I just turned 24 in July. The pandemic set me back with college and school, and I felt like I was running out of time. But age is really a number! and we CANNOT compare ourselves to others, because everyone is on their own path! Different ages accomplish different things. Age means nothing at all :)
I'm almost 54 and adopted the saying a few decades ago. "Age is only a number. Either you own it or it owns you." I'm kicking its behind every day and enjoying life. Nothing is guaranteed in life. After coding a number of times, being trached and spending 5 weeks on a ventilator this past January, I learned to see life differently. The little things that used to stress me out aren't important anymore. It completely changed my perspective on life.
I dress how I want. My hair changes color a lot. Life is embraced to the fullest.
@@VampFaye I'm glad to hear you're doing well now! I totally agree! The thing is it's easier for me to preach it all instead of actually doing. I know it's just a number but I feel so behind a lot of the times compared to so many others. Some days are better than others. I will finish Uni in the next 2 years and I can at least cross that goal off my list.
The fact you even were able to cross mile ten was BEYOND impressive. The fact that you TRIPLED the distance was extraordinary. I am so blown away that you finished. I live here and it is very hot most of the time and I am very happy that your okay. I really love the way you explained how the pandemic took so much away. Keep being the way you are and stay happy, motivated and living your life to the most.
I forgot to add in my last comment that YOU ARE A BADASS! You have put your soul, life and confidence to the test and each time you succeed from doing S.W.A.T Academy, Fire Academy to even MARINE BOOTCAMP. You have done so much in your life and I hope that voice inside your head telling you that you can't, wont or nope, keep being an amazing RUclipsr and never give up.
“Growing older is a privilege to many”
this is very true, many don’t live to be in their 30’s enjoy it, you’re an inspiration.
I'm not at all into running, let alone marathons, yet this video made me so emotional. That was an incredible feat, and you just kept going. You are remarkable!
You're insane!!! I couldn't even breathe in Death Valley. HOW DID YOU RUN???
So true! She is awesome
You’re so nice to Michelle, Michelle!
I here before this blows up
Michelle and Michelle
The tough one and the smart one!
So cool
As a 58 year old, I will tell you that any aesthetic concerns you have about getting old are easily over come by inner beauty. From what I have seen of you, you will be a beautiful young woman for ever! That was both impressive and inspirational. Thank you!
What great words, Glen! And i completely agree.
I cried watching this. I'm 28 now and have been so afraid of this big looming "30". This video was so inspiring, and as someone who loves to jog, I feel motivated to push myself to try a half marathon. You are truly incredible, and thanks for being so vulnerable and real with your audience.
The marathon goat is 39 years old
This hit home. I just turned 27, and I'm also struggling to come to terms with how much of my 20's the pandemic took away. I'm right there with you. 💜
Time goes by SO fast. As you get older it really begins to hit you how fast it starts to go.
I agree. I'm about to turn 27 in a few months (actually, in February, but that feels like it's right around the corner) and there's just this dread within me.
@@Adrian-Maxwell embrace it!! Nowhere to go but up 🚀 you're probably going through your Saturn return phase which is emotionally draining but the biggest learning experience. Be prepared to go into a new decade where you can just have fun and sorta have life a little more figured out. Less overwhelm and more love, laughs and adventures 💜
im struggling with missing all of college
I have a secret! When you guys cross over to your 30s is fckn awesome! Talk about a super boost of confidence, sec life is great and you also tend to enjoy the little things. Don’t be scared, then again that same fear is what every has, it’s like rite of passage. Be blessed ✌🏽✌🏽
This was absolutely insane Michelle, so freaking inspiring! Beautiful video! 👏
Heyy
MIKE!!!
MIKE MY BRO
yo mike
Mike brake glass by shouting and yet tell a challenge insane!
As a woman in my mid-30s now I can say that I'm stronger and doing more in life than I ever did in my 20s. This is just the start of the adventure Michelle. I promise you'll still accomplish great things in the next decade of your life.
Same I started running and losing weight in my 30s and it seems like most runners in my area are better in their 30’s and 40’s than the 20 year olds
if you've ever heard, 30's is the new 20's. People think they'll find themselves, their purpose, have the right friends and everything in their twenties, but socially and economically, its harder to. people do it in their 30s now. thats fine. Medicine and healthier practices are being encouraged younger, so we can feel better longer. I've seen people doing crazy things on yt in their mid 40s like the guys at mediocre amateur.
I turned 20 two years ago and the guys at mediocre amateur inspired me to start preparing to live my 40s like them. Not an ounce of me is scared of getting old. 50 on the other hand.... ssss
@@feliciacrumb2657 You don’t need to run as much when your young
As a minor who has been running my whole life, this video has been so extremely inspiring. My modeo as a runner has always been, "I can be slow, but I'll never give up.". Being slow and getting older does not mean your worthless etc, it just means your wise and can do more! You are a BADASSS Michelle!!
You’re such a fucking badass, Michelle!!
So inspired by your current fitness journey, Phil! Keep going! You've got this!
@@MichelleKhare I LOVE YOU MICHELLE
Cool to see the mutual respect and motivation here. I can't even imagine doing this, but we all face our own battles to get stronger.
@@MichelleKhare your so strong girl keep it up 👍
@@MichelleKhare hi
Did not expect to cry watching this video lol, but Michelle got me when she whispered to herself "I can keep going." I'm a competitive athlete and say that to myself when things get physically hard, but I've used that phrase with myself outside of sports as well, to help me get through the trauma I've been through. Despite how bad my mental health or anything else gets, I just tell myself "I can keep going" and, just like her, put one step in front of the other. I have so much respect for her!
100% couldn’t say it better ❤👏🏻
Love this so much
This video gave me chills!! Way to go Michelle!
Chills? Not very fitting
@@sirvulcan5738 ha ha ..... Ha
I’m so glad she made it out okay
You mean the heats?
glad im not the only one who was moved to tears. I dont know if anyone will ever read this but i have to say I am grateful I got to watch this. I felt so hard in that moment when you pushed yourself to keep going, it was amazing to watch and thank you for being so real.
These videos are insanely well made 🙌
Thank you Ryan!!!
Hey Ryan
Girl, this spoke to me so much. Instead of running away from my problems, I should be running towards them and facing them head on. I've been avoiding them for a while now but today that ends. Today I decide to be a better me and to dig deep in the face of a challenge and overcome it.
Yes 🔥 yes and ur gonna do so wonderful
I have not ran a 10k but I have rowed a 10k. Honestly, the amount of work Michelle puts in for these videos is insane.
KEEP IT UP!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏
*ruclips.net/video/mCfYi7634rU/видео.html*
Finally it's here after so long
Dang this video always makes me cry so much😭😭. Just watching Michelle do something incredibly hard with so much persistence and all of the support she is getting from everyone around her is amazing. I can totally relate to feeling like you aren't as good as you used to be, but I love what she says at the end, its really inspirational. I always watch this video whenever I feel really bad about the choices I have been making and it always inspires me to do more
She's literally the youtuber I grew up with. I miss watching her videos so much! I'm so happy to see her all these years being happy and healthy, and continuing in RUclips!
How old are you
I didnt expect to cry to this video. Ever since the pandemic, many things were taken away: time, family. And all I can think about since then is how at some point im not going to be able to do the things I can and have the people I love around me all the time. When you said you wanted to take back what you lost in the pandemic the tears just streamed out. Im so proud and inspired by you.
Michelle, when you had the shift to run to 30 instead of running away from 30, I felt so inspired. I turned 28 over the summer and I am terrified of turning 30 because of societies standards for women at 30, like its our expiration date or something, and when you started to run to 30 and had that shift, what a powerful moment. I wish you nothing but the best in your 30s, you're gonna kill it.
30 is the age of blooming into who you want to be for yourself not just others anymore
@@elcamaronpesado4366 who said that?
@@elcamaronpesado4366 women peak in attractiveness in 18? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 lmao, where u slammed your head to?
@@Almond.stars666 just him. 🙄
I'm in tears. You're the reason why I started my fitness journey. I see so much of myself in you. You're such an inspiration and no matter what ANYBODY says, you are a fucking badass! And don't you let anybody tell you any different!
I'm turning 30 in 2 weeks, I cried during the whole video. It's really hard to feel your body age with you when you've been someone doing sports your whole life. Thank you ❤️
I felt great when I was 30. No aches or pains. Exorbitant amounts of energy. I would bounce out of bed eager to start my day. I have been running since I was 13 and has been an athlete my whole life. Now I am 47 my feet cry when I lace up my ASICS Nimbus because they know I’m going to beat them up. For the past nine months I feel like I’ve been running with three broken toes. My joints hurt my knees hurt. I’m in incredible pain almost all the time and I run to get rid of the pain. But it’s only temporary. I always thought if I keep exercising you will age gracefully it’ll make it easier to move when you were older. But I wake up now every day in pain. I never feared turning 30. I can’t imagine what these runners are going to be like when they hit 40.
@@HH-gv8mx the ironic thing is, world class athletes put more wear on their body than what's healthy. Running long distance also puts more strain on your knees and feet and you will feel it later in life.
The healthiest people are not doing anything impressive. They are just consistent.
37 - definitely can feel the difference from 27 that’s for sure :(. But actually stronger is some ways too.
Daphnee,enjoy each day,you're not guaranted tomorrow.Thank God for each day you wake up,with your full health and in your right mind.Go visit a local hospitol.there are people laying in beds that can't move nor walk.Bet,they'd trade with you any day.Just food for thought.
Dude at 30-40 a womans body is like insanely capable of being super fit. Way better than in your 20s. 30s are you prime if you stay active.
This was very moving for me, since i did cross country in school for 5 years and i had to not run a year because college was draining me out, and when i came back to it, it was a challenge i was slower than everyone else when i used to be able to run right with them. to make matters worse my coach discouraged me reminding me of the regret i had from taking a year off. But i proved my coach wrong and ran my fastest PR in my whole time running but she pulled me out of the state race even though i had qualified and it ruined me it felt like everything i worked for went to waste and i would never be that runner ever again because it was my last year on a team. This video is inspiring because it made me realize my running career doesn’t end with school it starts with me.
That coach is so wrong I hope you will start running again
Keep running! Youve got this!
Like most of Michelle’s videos are pretty emotional but this one hit different. Like people say “Age is just a number” even if like michelle says that when she gets older she wont be able to do the things that she did before. Atleast she got to store those memories in her yt channel to share with her 3 MILLION FANS!!!
Lots of love and support! ~ashley
I got goosebumps at the last part. If this video can't inspire you then probably nothing can.
It's okay to do things slower because then you can do more. This line hit me hard.
Hearty Congratulations and thanks for inspiring.
As a chronic illness sufferer and physically disabled, that grief and fear is something that a lot of people deal with way before 30.
It's okay! You have so so many years ahead of you to do more amazing things! Just enjoy it before you can't. 🖤
Seriously! I've had Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and Fibromyalgia for 26 years; it started when I was 37. When I walk into a Rheumatologist's office, they can tell I've had fibro for a long time in about 30 seconds or less. I also had a 1st Cousin 1x removed who died from the medicine they gave her for the same illness, yet because I became allergic to just about all pharmaceuticals I couldn't take any of it. I had to learn to manage my pain without medicine, which probably saved my life as back then they didn't know any better.
You don't have to worry about your body letting you down Michelle - you've always kept it in great shape! Perhaps, the way to celebrate turning 30 is making a pact that since you've conquered all these physical challenges it's time to conquer the mental challenges of believing age means anything at all. It doesn't. Once you conquer your fears, your body will do anything you ask of it. There are plenty of women who have popped out some kids and gone right back to the physically demanding jobs they had before their bodies starting building a new vessel for a soul to inhabit at birth. They are everywhere around you. Whether you choose to have children or not doesn't mean anything changes in how you can push your body. 30 isn't the end. It's a joyful beginning that allows you to experience just how magnificent you really are! Get excited! The best years of your life are waiting just around the corner. 😊
I hear you. I had my first operation at 15 and said out loud “well now the bad stuff is over and it’s only going to be good from here on out.” Well I was dead wrong. I’m 30+ operations in, with 4 autoimmune diseases and every single day is a struggle. But I know that unless I keep my mind in a good place, I can end up somewhere really dark fast. So I try my best to gently push myself each day, and find things to enjoy that don’t make my pain worse. For me it’s all about finding alternatives and being open to accepting change. Sending you gentle hugs from one spoonie to another. ❤️
as someone who went through that from 12 to 22, i cant say how much grief it brings from missing out on well, everything "normal" - but i'm just grateful im still here :)
definitely, I’m just a teen and I can’t do the things I could do last year. I fear it’ll become worse, but I’m going to keep doing the things I love even if I need to stop every 5 min or if I need to do them in a wheelchair
When Michelle said the pandemic stole so much... I felt that. When all this circus started I was 23. As a 26 year old I feel like I was robbed of my early 20s... and that is time we wont get back.
I was 36 years old at the start of the Covid-19 pandemic and am currently 39 years old
Just live your life, age really is just a number. Do all the things you wanted to do and more in your early 20s, life is long, you have plenty of time to experience new things. ❤
9 when it started
I was 32 when it started and just turned 36. The situation in the UK was a joke. Lockdowns all came too late and weren't strict enough, hence it had to drag on longer than required. The economy is now up shit creek for generations to come, as is the healthcare system because we "protected" the NHS by just closing it down. This has created a backlog which is set to cost more lives than COVID-proper did.
But the idea of the pandemic stealing anything in the US is laughable. There were no rules there, no lockdown, nobody cared and everyone just did their own thing. Even here I was horrified about what I was seeing on TV reported from out there. While Australia was basically shooting anyone who opened a window at home and locking down whole cities because of one case, while France and Spain literally banned outdoor exercise of any kind, while the UK (where I live) was locked down yet AGAIN and you couldn't get any non-COVID healthcare... the US was having full house spectator sports, free-for-all interstate travel, Spring Break, graduations, "COVID parties", concerts and conventions, and armed mobs smashing up the Capitol. One person even said "We can't visit my grandma this year because of COVID so we're going to Disneyland instead". Dude, what?!
But oh wait. The only part of the US that even remotely tried was California, which is where Michelle lives. Mystery solved.
You have it better than me , Covid took my graduation and all my senior events so all that expectations from younger self got thrown out the window
I started running in my early 40’s and have since run 4 halves, 2 marathons, & 5 ultramarathons (all trails). It ain’t over until you decide it’s over, my friend. Keep up the great work!
Soooo inspiring!!!❤️ My whole life I’ve wanted to be an athlete, but have always had the thought that it’s too late for me. I didn’t find my sport when I was a little child, and when I did find the sport that I loved I was in high school. But I never though I could go pro because “Real athletes start when they’re young children and train their whole life”. I gave up on my dream… but that dream has always stayed in the back of my mind. Now I am 26 and I had a realization that I can still be an athlete, and it’s not too late for me! Maybe I won’t become a pro, but I can still be active, train, and compete. And who knows; maybe I will go pro! Anything can happen, especially if you work hard. Thank you for this video. It has truly help me in so many ways ❤
As someone with a disability, it's amazing how toxic aging has been made. I'm the same age as Michelle, but I've never been able to do anything she does. We really shouldn't be identified but what we can or can't do, because that can change.
Beautifully said!!! More people need to realize this.
Excactly what i was thinking when she was ranting
I was hoping someone would mention this. Having the opportunity to run a mile, let alone 30, in the hottest conditions, is an opportunity many are never afforded. The able bodied community further instills ableism through agism. It’s kind of insane to think we are in a society that so vehemently despises any form of “tarnishing” to one’s appearance or abilities, especially when aging is inevitable and 1 in 5 will end up disabled by the age of 50 in the US. The crazy part is, unless it happens to you, you generally never consider the impact of what that would mean physically, let alone appreciate the ability to wake up every day and have functionality come so easily. I wish the perspective were different, but sadly, it seldom is, even for those who know and watch first-hand someone close to them live with a disability. I hope she cherishes her abilities, not from the perspective that they may be gone one day, but because she is privileged to live out her teens, 20s, and now 30s without ever having to give her functionality a second thought. For her, it’s “what can’t I do?” in every video, for those facing physical disabilities, it’s “can I do this safely?” As a daily consideration
stop crying.
her perspective is warped because she "peaked" way early. (peaked in quotations because 3:20 marathon for a 26 year old woman isn't exactly the best she could do.) but i will agree that identifying with what you can do is not recommended.
We love the effort you put in these videos, and risking your life for our entertainment ❤ turning 30 doesn’t change your appearance, your health or your body, if you keep going on the track you’re going on you will look young for the rest of your life! Also if girl can run a that much in 130+ degree weather then I can run 1 mile in 70 degrees

Finally it's here after so long
young "for the rest of your life"..? that's ridiculous.
Around age 30 your body undergoes hormonal changes, metabolic changes and you lose bone mass (growing any taller is not gonna happen, skin becomes less elastic, weight is easier to gain, and you’re at higher risk of osteoporosis) - we should be realistic and positive, but not fictitious
@@realSimoneCherie omg please that's not realistic, it's fatalistic
Just remember U turn older for a new capter and adventre in life dont forget that
When you were crying in the rv at the latter end about you turning 30, you made me cry as well. I am almost 40 now and I've been inspired by your videos in the past to push myself. Trust me you will be stronger mentally and physically as you get older than you ever thought possible.
🙌🏻👏🏼✊🏼
Even 40 and 50 are not that old. Sometimes our minds play tricks on us and we start believing we are old due to wrinkles, etc. movement itself will always slow down if you stop moving.
Hey I'm 33 and still haven't started the point in my life where I could do cool stuff like you do. You've accomplished more than most people, that's something to be proud of.
When her husband came out and ran with her I started sobbing. I am so proud of you Michelle. YOU ARE A BADASS!
Husband?? When did they get married?
@@abbywingate2296haha they just released there weddings video today!
As a sport psych major this is incredibly well put and so many gems in this. Thank you for showing this journey Michelle ❤️
Can you give us the highlights? It seemed so dramatic.
I felt great when I was 30. No aches or pains. Exorbitant amounts of energy. I would bounce out of bed eager to start my day. I have been running since I was 13 and has been an athlete my whole life. Now I am 47 my feet cry when I lace up my ASICS Nimbus because they know I’m going to beat them up. For the past nine months I feel like I’ve been running with three broken toes. My joints hurt my knees hurt. I’m in incredible pain almost all the time and I run to get rid of the pain. But it’s only temporary. I always thought if I keep exercising you will age gracefully it’ll make it easier to move when you were older. But I wake up now every day in pain. I miss being 30 .
@@HH-gv8mx You may need to take over the counter meds,H-H,Osteo Bi-Flex is what you need.It helps improve your joint comfort in 7 days,it really works too,had trouble with my joints also,improved immensely in 7 days.I also use tylenol PM ( extra strength )it helps too.I did 4 deployments to Iraq with the Texas National Guard ( I volunteered for all 4 tours) I WANTED ALL THAT SMOKE !!! LOL.Did 2 tours back-to-back also.My first tour was with an infantry unit at Camp TQ in Iraq ( mid-2004-to all of 2005 )it was a marine base then,my battalion fell under the marine's authority.And they never let us forget it either. LOL.I kicked in numerous doors,arrested & detained countless Iraqee citizens & insurgents,had fire-fights lasting 3/4 hrs,had tracer rounds flying inches over my head,etc,etc,..we also did joint missions with the marines.We took care of a lot of bad guys in Iraq,I wanted to do my part on the war on terrorism.Help protect the US from more terrorist attacks.I'm not rich,but,I have a particular skill set ( did 7 yrs active army )determined to help my country ( not run up in the capitol causing choas & being an inssurectionist ) I also use amino acid tablets daily& ibuprofen tablets( 200 mg )
This made my cry. I’m turning 30 in a few months and feel the same way. The pandemic made time completely erase (so it seemed) and I feel so confused by losing my “youth”. Proud of you!!
Not only did Michelle do the marathon but her cameraman/woman did too! So great job to you!
Edit: Yes guys I understand they were in the car thank you! Also thanks for the likes I didn’t expect it to get this much!
I'm not sure, but I think the camerperson was in a car.
bro check 16:45
I think they were in the trunk of the van or a drone but still, even in a car with the back open in that heat! I don't believe I could do it
I was okay until you said, "thank you for running with me." girl. I can't stop the tears, congrats and happiest birthday ❤
I honestly don't know what to expect from you anymore 😭
You've completed all challenges ever existed.
You shouldn't freak out about aging. That's how life works we can not stop time or rewind it, you can do anything u want in any age.
Btw congrats on 3m, u deserve it
@Jared Jams FR FR
Wow! For me, running a marathon would be a tremendous accomplishment, but you pushed yourself even harder to run not only in the hottest place in the world, but 31.1 miles? Girl, are you even human? You inspire me so much. Love your hard work and dedication!
Michelle you are a bad ass!! I went through spinal cord surgery a few years. i'm still trying to learn to run again. Watching this video you've inspired me to keep trying to learn to run once more. I love you Challenge vids.
I hope you are recovering well. Keep your dreams and goals! You can most definitely do it ❤
@@WhitFyffe Thank you so much
Your also a badass! You can def relearn to walk and just having to expierience such a thing makes you a badass
I had my spinal cord pinched off by a bone spur & paralyzed from the waist down. The 1st hospital did not want to admit me with no health insurance, police got involved because I certainly could not drive my car back home anymore & cop couldnt believe they threw me out & she brought me back & i end up having to do baker act to get in. But then hospital started to abuse me telling me get up and go to the bathroom (yeah right) and i was in extreme pain No medication. I got delirious. Then they found out my county of residence would pay the bill so I figure they do the mri of my back & i get airlift to a hospital that could do what I knew would be some kind of back surgery -> because this hosp was too small to do what was needed & I end up there only because there no other hospital for a 90 min drive. So then they started doing a useless test everyday Knowing it would get paid for such as gall bladder scan. Oh yeah they think its a distended gall bladder. So they went from not wanting me admitted to not wanting me to leave. They were making big bucks & I still miserable and in pain & angry & also not understanding how do they get away with this? Also - what kind of ppl DO THIS? IT was insane but really happened. Then I also realized if they ever were to do the MRI of my back that was necessary for diagnosis, I would NOT be able to tolerate lying still on my back on a board not moving for 20 min. No way. I was not even tolerating This. I wanted to die except I wanted to get out of there & live MORE. BUT i would be screaming & not able to tolerate riding in a car. With little kids. Which presented as an option for my escape after being there a week my sons wife would come. Of course I said Yes. I cant believe I did not scream in that car & made the drive & I had 1 pain pill left in the house & grabbed that to take prior to MRI Because I must tell this hospital I was at the 1st one I have all these IV holes in my arms. And I know they r going to send records full of lies. Which they did. Ordinarily hospital #2 would give me something for pain but It was explained in my case they cannot do this cause hospital #1 wrote i m an IV drug user!!! OMG but I in a way expected it. I already warned hosp 2 that records would be wrong, but u kno how it goes. So happy I had that 1 pill. Because they set me up for MRI and I just barely lasted. But Yes! ON MY WAY! Finally. I could see the Dr go in to get the results. Then all HELL broke loose & nurses running, I mean actually Running this way & that & coming toward me with IV. They had me setup with pain med in no time, realizing their mistake. The Dr saw how much pain I'd be in off that MRI & sched me for emergency surgery Although fully explaining to me a spinal cord is very delicate and a bad prognosis that other hospital had my lying like that for over a week. I could tell he was not really expecting me to walk again but determined to give me my Best Shot at it. If I had had emergency surgery in the 1st place my prognosis wouldve been very good. Now the opposite. I Was just happy to have a Chance and a Surgeon who truly cared.
Right before they put me out he reminded me "don't expect to be any better then you are right now". I will forever remember his exact words. But he Gave me Hope instead of no hope. Because he was going to do his best. Such as operate right away instead of wait for the morning. He said after a week, another night likely will make no difference but he is going to do it Right Now anyway. So I Knew I was in The Right Hands.
It took 6wks of not knowing & wondering do I even want to live like this? And lawyers telling me to call them back only if I did NOT get better? What am I supposed to wish to stay paralyzed to get a malpractice suit? Yep thats what 3 of them told me. No even if its millions I want my legs back.
After 6wks I could feel the pin slightly running down 1 leg.
Slowly got better from there. About 2 1/2 mos to take a step. 3 mos discharged. In quite a bit of pain 6mos later but always some progress. I do not accurately remember the time line after That but that mixed with scoliosis & some hip replacements & no additional corrective back surgery has me since that time unable to walk by myself for more then 5 min. I can stand bent over for quite awhile. But I can run with this walker I have now that does not collapse going over a tiny bump. I can run about 7miles without stopping. I m trying for 5K more then mileage at this point.
Since I read your comment I wanted to tell you my story because though it was extremely abusive and they got away with it, if I keep thinking about THAT & What bad luck I end up at Crazy Insane Criminal Drs & Nurses Hospital, if I just keep thinking about THAT, I will get nowhere. I think of that Miracle Surgeon who somehow fixed me. Didnt wait to operate tho logically it made no difference to wait until morning, maybe it DOES?! He gave me my best shot & they got me in the operating room asap.
So you go and try your best. And stay optimistic. Keep the right attitude. Its one step ata time & every step enables you to do More.
I recently met alot of people around my age 62 & physical issues of some sort or other. I did not even tell most of them my story & they tell me I am an inspiration. Because they see me run. With my walker. But I am just being me.
Also, if I am an inspiration, why did it not get any of them walking? Past what they must do to go to the store or they call a cab to go 3/4mile?
I do not mean this as a put down but they are obviously living on a different planet then I am. I was very sad to see while many said oh they r gonna get exercise now None did. Its said because exercise would correct some of the physical problems they have but they do not SEE IT.
This past year I saw a new Dr they wanted a cardiology OK before my colon surgery & she just saw how my legs were moving behind my walker & I guess the fact that I do not actually Walk anywhere. I do a slow run. Its My Walk. Anyway she looked at me & said, "you know, You got you here. You did this. Other people would not even be walking".
But I think its more like once I was able to walk again, I made no limits, I just progressed. And saw how running got rid of my high blood pressure & helped me immensely with my colon issues stemming from improper treatment for cdiff left me with a damaged colon. Just a big extra Benefit I never expected from running but when I think about it, it makes perfect sense.
So just Go For It
Ya got Nothing to lose & Everything to Gain from trying.
I wish you all the best. Good Luck.
You absolutely ARE a badass, Michelle. And a total inspiration! Here's not just to 3 million and 30, but all the best still to come!
Hi
I cried...... It hit home for me. As a 34 yr old that started running 2 years ago during the lockdowns and now turning 35 next month, made me realize how much time I wasted and to be honest, I don't quite remember much of my 20's. I feel like life just flew by so quick and now that I'm older I want to do so much. But there's no excuse not to go out there and continue to do the things you love. Thanks for this inspiring video.
😭 there's so much strength in being open and honest about your feelings/ fears. I relate 💯 to fear of my body not being as capable now that I'm past my 20s... I'm 32 now and feel more capable and stronger than my 20s - age is just a number, and I'm starting to learn that. You're so inspiring and brave! 🙏🙏 blessings
Wow, I'm crying. When you started talking about the pandemic and how it took so much of your 20s away, I suddenly realized that I've been feeling the same way. We're almost the same age (I turned 29 in August) and approaching 30 has definitely made me start to freak out. I decided to enroll in my Master's program to try and give myself a focus for my 30s. In 2020, I also wound up being diagnosed with a lot of chronic illnesses that put me on the disability scale, while the year before I was running 5-8 miles every week. I'm finally getting some of my health back and this video was such an inspiration to keep pushing even though it's hard and some days are really bad. Thank you for the inspiration. YOU ARE NOT ALONE. So many of us in your age range feel the exact same way. We love you!
As a woman with a chronic illness who is also in my twilight twenties, I feel you on all of this! I’m working to finish my Associate’s after having to take prolonged breaks; yet I’m going to get that degree (as will you with your Master’s) and then be on to my B.A. Life may look different than we expected; but it’s still amazing, Thank God🙌🏽 Just wanted to let you know you’re not alone either! God Bless✨
As a multi sport athlete in my youth, you really brought tears to my eyes. As I reached the age of 55 I found myself not able to do the things I could when I was younger. My joints are in severe pain, but I manage through it knowing I enjoyed the sports of my youth and now must pay the price of dealing with the pain. I have lost several friends to suicide because they couldn't deal with the pain. I am stronger than that, and watching your videos young lady makes me feel younger...thank you for sharing your journey!!..You are a BADASS!
I don’t think she realizes how much of an inspiration she really is ❤ every video makes me cry
Goddamnit this made me cry!!!!! You are invincible stop caring abt “failing” ppl you have done sm more in your 20s alone than most ppl. You are truly an inspiration and seeing your progression and determination motivates me to do bigger and better things. Thank you I love you and I’m so glad I’ve found your channel.
I love how much work and effort she puts into everything she does. It’s so inspiring
This episode and the 911 emergency dispatcher made me cry. I'm proud of you Michelle. And I hope you learn to see and know you are worth way more than what your body is capable of. It's always been your mind, integrity, passion, and drive (from ur spirit) that's contributed to your video, success, accomplishments, and relationships.
This is inspiration, I am 14 and on October 30th I will be running the Marine corps marathon in Washington DC so thank you for extra motivation and proof that anyone can do it
Im 13 and October 30 is my birthday that’s. Funny 😂
@@carmelloll funny enough, my birthday is the day after that! 10/31/2007!!
130f is not hot enough for me we get 50c every day in summer
@@khaledgorila where at?
@@FTSIOBye uae
I can't believe I thought about quitting running. You Michelle Khare inspired me to keep going! I'm going to run and hopefully NEVER STOP!
I broke the moment you talked about the pandemic taking your 20s from you. I moved halfway across the country a few months before everything shut down. What should have been 2 years of exploring a new place, making new friends, and creating memories in my mid-late 20s was stolen from me. I only just feel like I'm beginning to explore my city and my career path is going to take me from here in the next couple years. It's hard to reach out and get attached to people when you know in the back of your head you're just going to leave. Also being scared of 30 being this big milestone in getting older and I just turned 28. It feels like it's looming over me. Thank you for sharing such a vulnerable moment with us. You're not alone in feeling this way.
Wow this really made me emotional. Thank you Michelle for being so open and vulnerable and for being a badass
Literally cried, love your dedication and ambition. I turned 21 this year and this inspired me to really take advantage of my youth. ❤️
I may be 9 months late to this video but it truly showed me what I can do as a national level volleyball player for Canada I had so much time taken from me from Covid and it took most of elementary school and thank you so much I am in a slum right now but this video has shown me I don’t need to be held back by anything and I can just try as hard as I can thank you
I just turned 30. This hit so hard, you're amazing Michelle.
My husband ran through high school and a bit in his 20s. He picked it back up at 29 when he started coaching cross country at a local high school. He ran his first marathon yesterday at 31 years old and had quite the mental journey through it. Now he's going to continue training and work to qualify for the Boston Marathon. I'm running my fourth half marathon next year (after having three kids!) and will be 31. I'm starting a masters program in a couple years. Life doesn't decline after 30. It can be the beginning of so many wonderful things. You are amazing. Your journey through 30 miles was beautiful. ❤
I know you wont see this but I actually started crying… everyone running with you at the end and just the overall video made me super emotional. Super proud of you Michelle 😢
Right now, I'm training my mentality that I must be grateful that I get to do all these physical activities, that it's something I should remember fondly when I grow old. I'm turning 26 this year, I love doing workouts. All those push ups and sit ups... I'll definitely have a smile on my face when I look back on all those workouts when I'm in my senior years. Another amazing video, Michele!
you're so hard on yourself michelle. you have accomplished so many amazing things and are such an inspiration. always remember that. also garrett joining you at the end made me weep.
Michelle, this has brought me to tears. As someone who even dreads to run to catch a bus, this is such an inspiration. You prove time and time again than with dedication we can achieve so much. You deserve every one of your 3mio+ subscribers and I'll speak for us all when saying that you open our eyes to see whats possible with the right people around us, belief in ourselves and the right amount of discipline (and craziness!) to achieve our goals. Thank you for being a life-changer for many!
Dear never doubt yourself. You have so many people standing behind you and cheering for you. You did an amazing job. Like the saying goes, never give up never surrender. I loved that Garrett ran with you near the end.
Michelle, you are such an inspiring person. I can’t believe you did this. This is insane. You’re such a fighter and you’re a very caring person and doing this so no one has to.
I'm so comforted to hear that another person had the same fears around turning 30 that I did. This was such an inspiring video, I was in tears by the end of this and wanting to challenge myself to more things while my body is still young.
Leaving our 20s behind can feel scary, but our 30s are amazing. We take all of our lessons we learned in our 20s, use them to refine who we are and our 30s can get to be our most confident years our lives 💛
I did NOT expect this video to be emotional for me, but that ending was powerful stuff. And great gesture by Garrett
Another powerful story. I recall the rock climbing video being such an inspiration but... this hit differently. Its because I'm in my 30s now and can't run even 10 km like I used to. I struggle to run past 2km. Thank you Michelle for inspiring us all. :)
The pandemic took basically all of my mid childhood years. I was 10 when it started in China, and then 11 when it spread to the US and all of a sudden I'm here and I'm learning to drive... it took so much from me and I never appreciated my childhood.. I was just getting through covid because of the trauma it caused me with my loss of loved ones and my mental health issues. I really feel you Michelle, and I hope you had an amazing birthday after this huge accomplishment, and you are a freaking BADASS!!!
I hate the way Michelle talks bad about herself, ALL of these things she’s doing I could never do at all. You’re a real badass Michelle. You do all of these things that most people have have the courage today. And even when you feel like giving up you still get to your goal! You’re a huge inspiration to all of us! 🤍 we love you Michelle!
The first part of your sentence was ironic, you just talked bad about yourself as well
@@michfuuj I wouldn’t say they said anything bad about themselves. They just said they can’t do these things which is pretty objective.
@@hotwasabi1085 saying you could never do something is talking yourself down.
@@michfuuj Not really, depends on how you are looking at it. People can’t do everything, no matter how hard you work some things will be “impossible.” You don’t know this person or their limitations. Maybe they really can’t do it, nothing wrong with acknowledging that or the struggle that might come along with it.
@@michfuuj that’s not true. There are just some things that you can’t do. I definitely couldn’t run a marathon because I can’t even run a mile. I still have strong confidence and there are a lot of great things that I can do, but running isn’t one of them. Nothing wrong with that.
Michelle I just turned 30 and am running my first marathon this year. I regularly watch your first marathon video for inspiration but this video really hit home. Our age doesn’t have to limit us. You are a badass!
Girl I am 20 years old and would not have gone through with the 1st mile age does not predict what you can do you have done so much and I am so proud of you and look up to you and hope I become someone like you at your age you are truly inspiring and you don’t give yourself enough credit for it you did that and be proud of yourself
I watched this video after a tough day of boxing training. You have inspired me so much. “Growing old is a privilege denied to many.” Brought tears to my eyes. I’m 28 and will have to come back to this video when I turn 30. Thank you.
As someone who had a lot of health issues (still do) during her 20s, I feel like I am thriving more in my 30s. I now know how to navigate my life better. I turn 35 next year and want to run 35 kms on that day. I have been slowly training towards that goal. You have no idea how much your video inspired me. You inspire me. Welcome to the 30s. We thrive here! ♥️💪🏼
That is the wildest challenges I've ever seen, glad you had fun michelle
Hi
I did cry at the point where she said she was running away from 30. You are a bad ass girl. You give me motivation.
When she said I’m afraid of being old that really reminded me just how fast time goes bye and how me personally im not afraid of dying I’m afraid of what it will feel like when the people around me die and how it will effect me as a human forever
