      @MMABeijing 3 года назад +64

      you recover fast when you train regularly. Most couch potatoes could not run hard for a lap, they would mentally break OR they would run well below their potential because they don't even want to go near the feeling of anxiety you get when you know you are facing something that's going to hurt if you put your heart in. Start easy, run 1 mile a day as slow as you want, and let your heart want more without rushing it and 100pct you can do it

      @@M1nistersBlackVeil I jog everyday and that's good to start from, but that's only a good start. The people who came to that event and then ran the 4*400 train. They don't "workout", "stay fit" or whatever, they actually train track and field. If you train track and field you can recover from y our 5k in 20 to 30 mn I would say. When I started training with a coach I was really fit, training Muay Thai on a regular basis and skipping rope regularly as well...but training 400m is hard, at least the way my coach trains is hard. Let me illustrate it for your: in the beginning I had such a hard time to recover between each say 450m that by the second set I could hardly walk straight, and truly believed that I would drawn if I face planted into the puddle on the track. I can not believe that I can do fine what I could hardly survive then. Of course a lot of that is pacing and posture. Running balls out would kill anybody, and training teaches you that: to pace. Seeing how healthy your lifestyle is I am confident that within 6 months of track and field training (in a club of course) you would be able to do the 5k followed by a 400. The people who are coming to Nick's events are not playing around don't be fooled, they are fighters

    Ok so you did the 5k on the track this spring, but I know you’re a huge advocate for cross country. How about a Nick Symmonds XC classic in the fall? Do a middle school distance 2-mile one week, a high school distance 5k the next. It could be a rust buster in August or a championship in early November. What do you think?

    I used to love the 5K when I was in high school. My average time was 17:30, which was considered great where I live (Canada), and I often finished in the top 10 at track meets. However, in my home country where I grew up (Ethiopia), 17:30 at a high-school track meet gets you in about 30th-40th, middle of the pack! You can see up to 15 people finish sub 16.
