I know it is not your primary focus for RUclips, but would love a shoe break down for the Under Armor running line. One of the lesser known brands I would say, and would love to hear your input on the different trainers they offer
that was a very positive session you had there, depending on how important this half marathon is to you, and if you are feeling good, i might approach it by pacing the first 10 or 15k at PB pace to get a gauge on your potential to break the PB, and then backing off to save the legs for the lead up to your marathon
Hey. Hope you are doing ok. Just listened to your latest podcast on Spotify Road to the Olympics. Sorry to hear you are having such a tough time of it right now, take care. I know I should probably know better commenting on your training after your thoughts on people talking about Sifan Hassan' training. But. I think making changes to your program half way through is a risk. Is there someone you trust that can take a look at your program and advise you on whether a change is necessary, hard to make good decisions in the moment. (Love all your videos and content is a given)
I'm curious if you still stand by this advice given your recent results. No shade at all, this is an experiment and you now have the results of the experiment. Does what you thought then still stand?
Scully - I bought your marathon plan but can’t access it through the jogging room website. When I try to access it I’m just redirected back to a “pay now” page. But I’m not buying it over and over again!! There’s no way to contact you other than here. Please help
Any wisdom on whether to keep pushing if you can't hit your race pace in training? I have HM training plans suggesting 10k plus of recent race pace but I can barely run it for 2km intervals outside of an actual race.
Dumb question but you have actually completed a race at that speed right? I feel like people often think they should be hitting a pace but they don't really quite
@@cameronogilvie3364 thanks Cameron. It's a pace I managed for the first hour of a half in May so I think a reasonable estimate of my LT.I feel miles stronger since but can't run it for 20 minutes in training.
@@RunScottish fair enough. My first thought is that if you could hit that pace recently for a very large portion of the race, then you may be a bit overtrained. I've definitely found that if my training paces are a little too aggressive then sometimes I end up slower until I back off for a little bit
Great video. I have a question: how do you adapt training (to get the right lactate numbers/effort) when there is high humidity? Do you have a spreadsheet or something that says: at above 20C and 70% humidity add 5 seconds per KM, at 80% add 10 seconds, etc. I really struggle with sessions right now, because we have had above 20C and 70% or higher humidity for some days now and would like to know how to adapt without having a lactate analyzer.
It’s a good question and it probably slows you down a lot more than you think, for example instead of 3.20 per km, I might be 335 and that’s simply heat / humidity.. really takes its toll
Usually 4 x 2 miles around race effort with 2mins rest, 3 x 3 miles - 3 mins rest, then perhaps 6-8 miles progressive from just outside race effort, finishing at race effort
You know it's going to be a good day when you get a new video from Scully
Best running channel on RUclips.

This would be amazing.
Yes. I was wondering which ones he was training with in this video.
Excellent Scully 🙌🏼
Thanks for the great content, as always! Best of luck as your training continues. 👏🙏
Long wait for the video.. but immensely inspiring and thought provoking as always 👍
Stephen I always used the mindset of 5% under-trained is much much better than 5% overtrained. Have stayed relatively healthy and had good results.
Good luck for the half Scully.
Hahaha guilty as charged on many occasions.
Love listening to this mantra from an experienced pro-great stuff.
Exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you scully. Ash L
much needed video, welcome back 😊 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Good luck for Sunday I’ll hopefully see you down there
Thank you verymuch.
👍🙏🏃🌠🌹♥️♥️♥️🌷💫🌠🏃😘
As always very interesting and well explained videos! Keep it up! And GL on the half marathon!!!!!!
The weather this year in Ireland has been shocking... Love the vids, an inspiration
Legend, thank you for all the updates
Absolutely love the videos. They help me so much. Motivating, Informational, and Engaging. You are going to kill it at Berlin Scully!
Brilliant

11:34 I love that part. But how do you find your achievable marathon pace? Do you have some specific sessions that tell you what level you're at?
Sending you strength ❤
For someone trying to break 12 mins for 2 miles, what distance ""long run"" should i do?? To gain max endurance.

Did you get it sorted out?

@@cameronogilvie3364 ok fair play. Think I'm going to try hitting the harder stuff a little slower for a week or two then will see where I am. Thanks.

cracking video
3.4 min per km on 150 bpm ? Is that real ?
You have great videos. But audio is always too low cannot hear.
Is it warm down or cool down?
w vid
Goood
Can I ask what's your max HR? Would like to know what % of max HR are these reps done at.
Around 188
awesome, that's my max too but I'm at 160hr on the end of long runs while doing 6min/km pace :D@@stephenscullion262
What way would you do tempos for a half?? Pls help
Usually 4 x 2 miles around race effort with 2mins rest, 3 x 3 miles - 3 mins rest, then perhaps 6-8 miles progressive from just outside race effort, finishing at race effort
@@stephenscullion262 thanks sculy, get a bit scared to try the continuous ones
Besides the language, great video.
