1. Take ownership of your mistakes 2. Don't skip the boring sessions 3. Don't compare yourself to everyone else 4. Don't compete on training runs 5. Don't blindly rely on technology 6. Don't do too much too soon 7. Don't train for the wrong thing
Göran, that coffee in the face footage you have in there is so epic, I was laughing out loud watching this, so awesome, thanks for sharing :)

That Coffee in your face. Epic ^^
#3 is so important. If you had a good session, even if it was only 2 miles at 10:30/mi, say that you're proud of it! All the “fast” runners know exactly what it's like to be a “slow” runner, and they'll never look down on you for what for them would be a "short" or "slow" session. I've gotten injured a few times and had to start training almost from scratch. Every single time, all the much faster runners are just as excited for me to run 4 miles as they are for themselves to run 22 miles. Find a running club to join. They'll be your biggest cheerleaders no matter how slow you think you are.

It is better to run slow than to stop running.
Great list. As a runner with 50 years of experience, I can attest to them all. If you want to be a lifelong runner you have to be a smart runner.

Run for health, run because you love it. That's enough for me. All the benefits that comes with it, is just icing on the cake.
Thanks for video! I am female average runner surrounded by male above average runners and sometimes it is hard to not to compare. But I know my strengths are consistency and sustainability and slowly after two years it starts to pays off: yesterday I ran 30 km for first time ever and it felt good the whole run and I recovered fast. Most important, I had fun and enjoyed nature and trails.

Smart runners don't forget to pack some toilet paper when they go out for a long trail run 🤪
Great video as always! My biggest issue is running slow ( not that I am very fast - 6/km average ) but I find it very hard to do the long slow run ...
Such good advice!! 🤩
Great advice! Thank you. I appreciate you.I ran too fast and too soon uphill too and I got plantar fasciitis.
Thanks again Goran 👍
Always a great video, started running due to a I jury I got by skateboarding and got into running last May and last week I ran my second half marathon in und 2 hours. And now I am prepairing for my half marathon trailrun... so thanks for the good videos and tips :)

Good stuff as always. Particular points that resonate for me are a) leave the ego at home, definitely avoiding comparing to others, and b) your 6th point about not doing too much too soon. KZread is full of 'these 3 sessions to make you a faster runner' but (at least for me) you really need to earn the right to think about sessions and running faster, through putting in the work on the base easy mileage, getting that up to at least a few months' consistency, before thinking about adding in any pace work. I'm hoping with this discipline I might crack the long string of injuries and months off I've been going through!

#3 is something that demotivated me in the past but now i know better and i just want to enjoy running.
Maybe a thing for future videos: I simply don’t know what I am capable of - how can you know it? Started training running 2022 September to finish a 10km run under 50min at Sylvester. (Was at 60min before). Managed it - was proud. Then at February 10k race again, 46min, early march 15k 65min, end of march half marathon in 93min. I never thought I would be able to run the half marathon that fast. I thought maybe a 5min/km was sustainable but I ran behind a guy from my local club and just stuck with him until I even overtook him after 3/4 of the race. After 3km in this half marathon race I thought I am going to die, but just running behind this guy and my head telling me: don’t lose him, you will not have the mental power to become fast again, was such a boost. How can you train mental strength when you don’t have someone in front that you are looking up to?
Romsdalseggen 😍 Great video and thanks for sharing your wisdom.
Ha ha. I like your smooth caffeine intake.
6:21 Thank you
I agree with ignoring training the watch. Let’s use it to the certain extent gps/pace, doing intervals, but sleep data/hrv, we don’t know how accurate it is and for me it was stressing me out. I’m happy without it.
I think a lot of us pay attention to the coffee running shot 🤣🤣. Good advices bro, i stick with the “not compare to others”, highly dangerous.

Goran, what do you think about the Barnevernet? I like Norway but the government stealing kids seems pretty nightmarish.

One of the things I love about running is that 10k is about half a half marathon. So the progression from 5k to marathon is nicely stepped for you.

Ye I agree. But I often underestimate the half Marathon. I’m a runner who runs 35 km a week. So I’m used to the 10 km distance by now. You would think that a malfmarathon is 2x as hard as a 10 km. But it feels like it’e 10x harder. And I can’t even Imagine What a marathon feels like. But I’m sure I’ll get there sometime. And you prob Will too!

@@alfredberggren5985 I used to think exactly like you: a half marathon felt so hard. But I think it might severely depend on the details: specifically, in what "style" the distances are run. I discovered the "heart rate style" a few days ago. I calculated and minded my ideal aerobic heart rate all the time yesterday, and I ran a half marathon very smoothly without feeling exhausted afterwards. Please everyone: Try out running with a low heart rate, it feels like limitless endurance!! I ran with 147 bpm and the 21 km did absolutely not feel overwhelming.

@@NoNameArtist89Congrats on compleating a halfmarathon! even if you had low heart rate. Ye I see What you mean. For me it’s not only about running a half Marathon. It’s about running a half marathon in a fast pace. I’m sure I cab finnish a halfmarathon, in a slow time. That must be cool, but I still would want it to be in a fast time. When I stepped up my training I had to run slower. Wich means I’m running 52-53 min 10 km runs. Insted of under 50 min evrytime. Sometimes I think I didn’t train enough. But Ik I’m building up my slow endourance. But ye, running a halfmarathon with a low heart rate must be cool. But it Will take so much time 😉 For me it’s mostley about the time.

@@NoNameArtist89 Thanks! I have only run one halfmarathon before. But I was just 13 and took 3 pauses. So I didn’t really run consistant. But I got 1h 54 min back when I was 13. Now I’m aiming for 1h 40 min in the summer of 2024 or in 2025. But Ye lets do our best. My focus now is just to slowley increase the amount of kilometers I run per week.
I find that interesting since i have been running recently for fun to beat my 5k time and my feet randomly started hurting me again like it did last year. I never even considered that the hills that i had been running more of recently could have been the reason for me having to stop. Literally walking was fine but the impact from running was killing me and i definitely will try to train smarter!
@NoNameArtist89

I trained smarter by adding stretching and mini-massages in my routine. My feet hurt, too, and I thought the shoes weren't fitting. Turned out my shoes weren't the issue but tension in my feet! I added miniature-massages right before a running session, and I haven't felt tensed feet since then. I can recommend it, sometimes combined with stretching the back of the foot.
Consistent pace is the way to train.
ad #3: Running is a very wide field. Find the niche fitting your abilities and age. I'm 52 now, not a "born runner" and surrounded by much younger runners (20 to 30 years younger than me. It's hard for me to beat them on the shorter runs (like 5k) but I can run way further (up to 100k). Same with hills: as a mountaineer for all my life I can run much longer on hills than the younger ones. Or maybe you are perfect for Backyard Ultras? If you are strong minded and strive on the the fact that the starters are getting less and less - give it a try!
Often it helps to just ride 2km with your bike or even with your car and start your run at another place. This can be pretty helpful.
Winners focus on winning. Losers focus on winners. See meme of Michael Phelps

I usually do too much too early… This time, I run down hill on an asphalted road too fast and for too long, giving me knee pain for over a month now… 😕 The half marathon is in two weeks and I’m not sure I will be able to participate in it 😔

"Comparison is the defeat of joy" is the weirdest advice I've ever heard. To me it's the opposite. The only reason why I started running in the first place is because I want to compare myself to other people. Otherwise I would not be doing it. What is the point of running if not comparing or racing?
