Those long runs in your training plan helps a lot physically and mentally! I also found out that I ran my easy runs too aggressive. Great content, as always!
Solid advice - much appreciated. Looking for my next BQ in a couple months after a layoff. I've also hear you talk about hydration in other videos, something I needed to hear as I've been more a "sipper" on race day.
Thanks for your support Steve and yes, definitely get better and DRINKING and you will do FAR better in your racing. Make the mistakes and make corrections in training, not the race to mitigate poor efforts. Wishing you continued success.
Nathan, I’m that rare less than 1% of runners out there that have exercise hypoglycemia. Been a runner for over 10 years and ran all races up to a marathon. When I run easy slow steady long runs, my blood glucose (sugar) would drop to the really low dangerous levels of 40s after an hour into my long run. To prevent hypoglycemia, I always take carbs like Gu gels or chocolates and eat them every 20 minutes to prevent my glucose from dropping. I also can control my hypoglycemia by running anaerobic where my hormones produce higher glucose due to adrenaline. I have the Seoul International Full Marathon in March 2024 I signed up for. Last year, I had to take in 12 Gu Gels, 32oz Gatorade, and 7 miniature chocolates to finish my marathon. This year, I’m considering doing some anaerobic runs in the middle of the steady long runs to keep my glucose levels steady. What you think about this plan? Yes, I’m not the normal type of runner and I always envy other runners that don’t have to worry about their blood glucose dropping during the runs like I always do. I have the tendency to “bonk” 2-3 times faster than normal runners because of my born conditions.
I would highly suggest researching glutathione supplementation for your hypoglycemia. It can help combat that. Yes, adding in some anaerobic efforts into your long runs will dramatically help you in the marathon. It helped me go from 2:43:36 to 2:19:35 so know it works. Keep me updated on your progress. I know you can get some big PRs and also know glutathione can help.
Hey Nathan, I follow your advice about alternating between an easy long run and faster long run each week - and it's made a big difference on my performances! One question I have though: for the faster long runs is it better to do one big block at a faster pace (e.g 16k tempo) or shorter repetitions throughout the run (e.g 4 x 10 mins hard etc)? I'm wondering if my faster long runs should be treated as longer tempo runs at a continuous pace, or longer interval runs where the pace is broken down - perhaps I should alternate between them? I hope that makes sense and thanks again.
Great to hear that you are seeking some significant results from changing up your tactics Isaac. Nice work brother. Shorter durations throughout the long run is best rather than trying to do the whole run at harder effort or very large segments of it hard. Hope this helps. Keep up the great training.

I usually run my easy days really easy like 10:30 pace and I run a sub 17 5k you think this is ok
Absolutely! Focus 100% of your energy on the extremely tough workouts..easy days should be exactly that, easy. Hope this helps.
