7 Tips To Make You A Better Runner

Tip #8: Chunking! - When things seem daunting, just focus on the immediate chunk: "gotta get this rep done", "Lets get to the next water tap", "Just one more race this season"..... whatever makes sense for the goal you're aiming for.

I joined a running club very recently and deliberately put myself in a group that I knew was at a pace well below what I normally run as I find it really hard to hold myself back on my solo runs. I felt fantastic afterwards and really felt like it was aerobically beneficial. Still don't know why I can't just stick to my plan of going easy as I have heard this 80/20 rule so many times. I guess it's like, "Right, you got yourself out the door, let's get the most of this" but actually end up not really getting the most as the plan was to buildi aerobic base. (hope that makes sense). Anyway, another great vid. Thank you

My fav warmup and cooldown routine : Warm up leftover pizza from last night and cooldown with a pint of coke :) jk but thanks for reminding me of what i need to actually do!

I did my first marathon this year and I totally felt your pain in your face when you were struggling. I faced this too. My worst part was not being able to run more than 10 paces because of the overwhelming pain at one point. It was either do a run/walk option or not finish at all and I wasn’t going to do that. I had three goals for my marathon, and the first one was to cross the line ✅ secondly was to run it all - that didn’t happen and lastly was to do a sub 5hour. Well I missed out in that by only 5 minutes 😢 I always said I was only ever going to attempt this once….but who knows what is in the cards in the future 🏃‍♀️

Essential kit for the wintertime (for most people anyways): A headtorch/lights!! You want to know where you‘re putting your feet to prevent nasty falls and twisted ankles and be seen by cars/bikes crossing your path. Especially as a cyclist I can’t stress enough that, on an unlit path, you‘re basically invisible without lights/reflectives. I‘ve been very much spooked by people suddenly appearing in my light-cone

Great tips always, thanks coach 👍🏻👍🏻

Another fab video guys 👏 recently joined your Strava club and followed on TikTok, great content 👍 ❤

Visualization!! that is excellent tip!

Thanks Guys! 😊

Thank you for your guidence

05:35, Strength Training is the base for every sport

Tip 7, is on point. When I start feeling tired I just visualize that I’m still running normally and about to cross the finish line. This really does help me feel like I can keep going.

I love this

I subscribe to the 80/20 method....i just skip the 80 part. Love your videos guys

Top tip is to watch the running channel!

Tip for static stretching is the youtube channel: Run better with ash. I hated stretching before, because it hurt, but his vids are super calming and I feel refreshed the entire day. This sounds like an advert but I just really like his kind of stretching.

I visualise my route that way it never seems so far or daunting.

having the right tech and the right data - decent heart rate monitor, and health database platform helps me see my progress over time

Last one wasn't a surprise but it's indeed very powerful :)

I've always done a bit of visualisation, but I'm not sure fantasising winning the London marathon is quite what you mean!😂
