what the heck is wrong with this guy? He think beginners are running for the Olympics or something?! 35min!! More like 1hr 35min for beginners!
Stopped the video after 35secs…..what a co-incidence….
wow. what a “beginners guide”…
I was trying to help someone that might of been mislead
Beginners won’t even make the distance, not even talking about measuring the time 😉
I run 10K in 1 hour and I’m a Smoker I can run 1 mile in 10 minutes no problems I periodically walk to control my heart rate I use a wrist watch that monitors my HR and even though I can keep running I let it dictate when a walk and once it gets lower I start running again.
what do you recommend if we are training partly on treadmill due to weather?
hahaha @Nezmundo00 good point!!!
I keep backing away but this guy keeps coming toward me!
Seriously? 6 min miles for a beginner’s guide? 35 min finish time? Most beginners I know are suffering at 8 min/miles and would struggle to finish under 50 minutes. Marathon pace? This is clearly not a “beginners” guide.
Solid advice otherwise….
Beginners guide?
good guide is to enjoy running no matter how fast or how far 🙂
Or…you could just clutch it like me today. Ottawa Race Weekend here we go.
good advice however his math is off. I beginner would be at least 1 hour to 1.5 hour range and thats a fairly fit person
PLEASE DON’T USE ALL CAPS! It’s the first rule of the interwebz
Hoped I helped someone because guys giving advice that is so short and a few minutes might mislead you and confuse you while he is giving g ood advice hes not explaining what type of training this is and when to do it. Short Cycle Long Cycle
Endurance 3-6 weeks 6-12 weeks
Strength 2-4 weeks 4-6 weeks
Speed 1-3 weeks 3-4 weeks
Tapering 1 week 2-3 weeks
Racing 3-4 weeks 4-8 weeks
Recovery 3-4 weeks 4-8 weeks
See he is only explaining the third phase the speed phase.
LOL A few things don’t make any sense in this vid… like the ‘shades’ (It’s bloody raining) and the ‘math’ (I’ll let you figure that one out yourself)…
I switched off when he said a beginner should do it vetween 35 mins to 55 mins.
Thanks for the tips! I ran my First 10k today… I haven’t ran for 16 years and got 1 hour 16 minutes. Good place to start I feel. It was a nice slow one to start me out. cheers!
All caps means that you’re angry, screaming, or both. Helping someone is not an exception to the rule.
very good advice, thanks
I’m glad to see this guy is protecting his eyes from the strong UV rays
HE IS GIVING AN EXAMPLE OF THE THIRD PHASE OF TRAINING CALLED SHARPENING, PEAKING, OR SPEED/INTERVAL PHASE. YOU MUST! DO BASE TRAINING FOR WEEKS OR MONTHS BEFORE YOU DO THIS TYPE OF TRAINING HE IS EXPLAINING. PHASE1 BASE TRAINING(MOST IMPORTANT BUILD MILES) PHASE 2 START RUNNING A LITTLE FASTER ON SOME RUNS . PHASE 3 WHAT HE IS EXPLAINING HERE. PHASE 4 TAPERING (CUT BACK AND/OR REST BEFORE RACE TO BE 100% NOT AS IMPORTANT IN JUST A 10K) PHASE 5 RACE PHASE 6 RECOVERY. but recover n every phase
