So right after this event the kids challenged me to an all out MILK MILE. I mean, I love milk, but four pints of milk + four laps?! Get this video to 10,000 likes and I'll fly back down to film it :D
that would be amazing
Hi Nick
Ur the best bro ,I love ur videos
Come to India also
Nick Symmonds
Love to see a girls/women 5km backwards race.
That would be awesome for all.
Let's do it.
The run gum ads don’t bother me, I think it’s really cool as a runner has his own brand and product. Nick is a great entrepreneur!!!
Have you used run gum is it a good product?
@@mangss9602 I use it daily, works great
I wish I could get some...*sad Canadian noises*
@@mangss9602 I haven’t been able to try it, but it seems amazing! The responses I’ve heard have been amazing. If you know Ryan Trahan, he used it when he was a runner
@@catharinaventer1232 ripppp 😅😭
Solid 5k. A lot of people can't do that forward.
Like me
LIKE the camera guy!
I can only do 3k without starting to walk foward
fr
MOST people can't do that forward. I don't run a lot, but I'm pretty fit. My PB is 28:40
Honestly, I'm not sure how this guy doesn't have 1 million subs yet. His videos are so high quality!
Me too.
Faxxxx
Yes of course he should have over 1m🤔😎👍👆
@@timmytheinventor4746 agree
I KNOW
PLEASEEE that fall was so dramatic 😂 11:18
He did not check on her too😂😂
That was hilarious to watch Ryder trying to walk forwards after finishing the 5k
The young kids subscribing and enthusiastically telling you a lap later was absolutely epic
Fax 😭
my schools athletic trainer told our track coaches that running backwards had a bunch of benefits, so every single practice we had to run 400m backwards. it was super hard haha
That’s a really good idea!
I mean it definitely has benefits, but doing it every day is a bit much
I love what you do for the people and the communities so nice.

I probably wouldn’t do good in this because a year ago I somehow broke my wrist in a backwards running race
ouch!!
yEe
@@nicksymmonds hey nick. I'm a 800 m runner. I have a doubt. When I run 800m the time I cross 600m mark. My hamstrings are slowing me down due to tightness. Do you know u?
"We have a race"
Their coach watching this video:
I have some old ideas that I'll give you. How about the "ARMS UP 100m" You have to race the entire race with both your arms straight up like you won, right from the start.
Fun idea!
That dangerous because your hands will get cramp. All your blood is going down.
Backwards running is so fun. Was a big part of my rehab plan after a knee injury. Eventually I ended up running 2 5k races backwards with a 30 min PR. 25 min backwards with no training is super fast for these guys!
Wouldn’t say no training, his 5k pr 15:15 which is no slouch by any stretch of the imagination. May not have trained going backwards but he’s trained going forwards pretty well so it wouldn’t be as hard in reverse.
@@YSoAggressive that’s true. Not that it’s equivalent but my 5k PR is 23 mins. So it seems like there could be a general relationship between forward and backwards times? Though, I busted my ass to run 30 mins backwards training regularly lol. I could imagine these guys could close the 15 min gap quickly with a a couple more reps.
@@jjaycallejas Yeah, that relationship would heavily be through their aerobic base. They wouldn't have all the muscle adaptation that would come through backward running training, however, their bodies are used to sustaining high-intensity effort for long periods of time.
Ex: People's muscles can give out first while they're running [Endurance], or their body can give out first [Aerobic Capacity].
Backward running feels like running forwards uphill for me (I definitely feel my quads and calve activation are similar).
This was event #3 for me and it was epic! Wow I don't know how they completed this. SO HARD!
Of course I made a vlog of the event
Craziest, unpredictable and really amazing video man . Every video i watch it just gets more motivating to do . No ads or promotion , but only engaging people with unique ideas
So we’re not talking how the camera man ran a 5k also? They are always underrated!
he didn't tho, he changed places with another cameraman twice.
Man you are really inspiring me to run through cold weather right now I just ran 1.5 miles in 12 minutes and 13 seconds my previous PR was 13 minutes and 15 seconds!
Keep that up!! Im working on my 1 mile right now. Cold weather aint stoppin me, track season here we come!
@@oliverjohnson8134 heck yeah man!
good stuff bro
Cold weather helps me a lot to push my limits, the cold gives me something else to focus on
Nick you are one of few people who encourage young people to live a healthy life and have fun doing so, thank you for that.
Dude! This was fun, even if I didn't participate (I wore the USA Discus shirt). Nick is genuinely great guy pleasure meeting him
Keep on posting Interesting, fun and entertaining content without any negativity 😊
Can do!

Awesome work! ✊🏾
Nick, come up to Corvallis for an event some time! Gotta give some love to beaver town too
It's crazy to see how you've grown in the last 2 years
I was the last to get lapped and the last to fall. It was and is my honor.
your effort was not in vain, soldier
That was great lol. Fly down to FoCo and race the cross country teams here! You should do a pickup 5k here in Fort Collins! (It’s where every lap of the 5k has to be faster than the other) or something backwards but we want to see you down here!
You inspire me to ecercise everyday man
Just the title of this video sounds like sheer torture !
Such a good idea for a video
