I successfully ran my first full marathon 2 weeks ago. Up to that point my longest run was 18 miles. I had done 22 miles split up between a 10 and 12 miler in the same day. I normally run on flat ground and had not been doing any running hill work, (although I am a big hiker, and had done some trail running, but it wasn't part of my consistent training regimen). The difference between 18 miles and 26 miles is huge, but they say if you can hit that 20 mile mark, you can grind out that final 10K. My race featured A LOT of hills, and it wore me down pretty hard. I also don't feel like I carb loaded enough prior. My knee was hurting for the last 8 miles, but I kept pushing forward. At the final stretch, the crowd was roaring and clapping, and I could hear the announcements over the PA system. The adrenaline rush hit me and I sprinted the final 50 meters or so. My buddy who came to show support (both of us military veterans) jumped out along side me and we crossed the finish line together. It was such a surreal moment and an incredible experience. I'm still recovering from the race (the knee issue) but I can't wait to get back to the grind and run my next one. Looking to do a 50K ultra.

5 miles is a great achievement, I couldn’t even run when I started, I was severely overweight! I’ve built my running up to around 15/16KM now and I’m super happy and proud of how far I have got to, and you should be exactly the same!! Remember training schedules are like marathons, they are not a sprint ! Takes time to get where you want to be!! GO ONE MORE!!
Great video and awesome editing dude! You’ve really inspired my to tackle a half-Ironman of my own before I graduated high school. Love seeing what you do before a run and keep up the great videos!
1 week to the next having a 7 BPM lower HR might show you were better recovered this time out. The active recovery ride is a solid concept. The first swim after a long run I try and do a long-ish kick set. I used the step approach to my long runs this past summer for a race that was ultimately canceled 🙃.
For hydration take a look at "Gel Water" and how this relates to running and biking and to give an example to put in a teaspoon of ground chia seeds to your hydration mix....this helps covert the water into gel water H3O2 and gives this slower uptake consistant up take....great off the bike when getting enough fluids becomes more difficult . Do a little home work....suggest it to your coach to check out. Great work as usual
Was running on the woodway while watching/listening to this and was literally counting my cadence when you mentioned it😂right on par with 30 foot drops on the left in 20 seconds!👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
You say the chest strap is more accurate for HR measurements but it would have been nice if you showed a comparison between the two devices in respect to HR during that run. Would have been interesting to see the disparity.
Your better off not eating like this befor yoir long runs. At the 2 hour time mark yoir body will attempt to switch over to fat for fuel VS muscle glycogen. If your full of food its hard for your body to do this during your run so youll be left not onoy running on a less efficient fuel source but your body will not be trained to run off of fat, which it will need to be efficient at come the last 3rd of that marathon.
I think you should be a bit more transparent about your PED use, no one can take in this amount of calories, doing the training your doing, and maintain your physique, naturally. No one is fooled lol
Lots of people believe he's natural. The booming supplement business shows it. If he came clean about using, noones shelling out the big bucks for all the "strong this" "strong that". It'd kill his business.

What a terri le feeling. Ran the Houston Marathon and at about the 12 mile marker, I thought I was going to 💩💩💩 myself. Thank god for clean port a potties, but the rest of my marathon was just a little....off. However, I FINISHED.
Last week I ran 3 times: +20 miles +20 miles and +21 miles for the week but I just ate normal 3 meals a day. No way i could consume so much calories and carbs 🤣🤣🤣
80 grams of carbs during the run and 120 grams of carbs immediately after (guess) with a large smoothie. Now i see how you keep the weight on with all of that running.
It's those two little bottles in hand he is preparing in the video he bought from Amazon. They have little grips that go in his hand. He holds them and runs.
It seems as though this channel is becoming almost entirely sales focused, seemingly disregarding its roots. I love the channel for the fitness content, not to be sold something.
Hey Nick, how do you go about having micronutrients within your diet? With the amount and intensity of your workouts, I feel they are essential to keep your body functioning. I know you take supplements in order to fulfill those needs, but I feel that having those real fruits and veggies are very important
When I run this distance it's normally in the morning before work. Bowl of muesli is all I need then I have a couple of gels (200ish cals) during the run. If I'm in the hills with a decent amount of vert this distance would take me a little under 3 hours
I'm curios about your calories for that 18 mile run. I figured that was ~3600-3700 calories, which honestly seems kind of low for that amount of cardio. I'd think you'd still be in a pretty big deficit after that, but maybe that's the point?
There have been studies showing that the apple watch heart rate monitor is just as accurate as chest straps (which can have issues when sweat builds up).
@Michael Daugherty As mentioned above me, the problem is that he’s trying to show his audience that what he’s done is possible without steroids. He should at least open up about it

Hey Nick, can you and maybe Natasha go over foot placement on the bike? I think she mentioned something like that in one of the earlier episodes. Thanks!
I used to be an athlete player, 200meter&400m, I joined many tournaments but I didn't continue because of problems with the club and captains, So is there any chance you can train me online? I'll follow all your instructions if you just say yes, thanks! 182m, 95kg , 21 yo
It's good to witness and know that you can still build and keep muscle with all the cardio you're doing. I guess it depends on the amount of distance you're covering as well, if you did more you'd lose the muscle right?
Nick all you need is a whole food diet for triathlon those supplements are a waste of time. Which is best an organic food source or a processed power. Plus that sh*t will rot your teeth. Keep up the good work see you on the start line.
To all the young impressionable men watching. You can NOT achieve this physique through nutrition supplements and a good work ethic. He is enhanced thru cycling of steroids. Important to keep in mind
What was the pace difference between last week and this week? “About the same pace” isn’t a measurement. If you ran even 10 seconds faster per mile, that would be a big enough difference to have a +7 bpm change.
