I Forgot How PAINFUL An All Out 5K Can Be!

Published 2024-07-29
In today's video I raced a 5k in London's Battersea Park. Breaking 15 minutes in the 5k is no easy feat and it certainly felt like it tonight. Another great race but looking ahead already at some marathon training in the next coming months because man do all out 5k's hurt!

    I always remind myself about the rule of thirds: one third is above expectations, one run at expectations, and one below expectations. If you're not living the rule of thirds, you've either got a problem with your training or a problem with your expectations.

    dude your videos this year have been so good - keep them up. very inspiring every video
  • The guy in the half back half reddish vest in most of the video has a running technique like he’s never run before, but is obviously extremely quick, so bizarre

    I think you got those KM callouts way off. As you said it is a 2 loop course and when you were just half wat on the first lap you saod 2.5km is coming up. I reckon you were at 1.8 at that point. Same for the 3.5/4 Great running though!
