I been running consistently for a year.I personally only know maybe 2 people who could wake up in the morning and run a mile

People who looked at the comments before they watched the whole video

The hair is a good look on you. Definitely get on the trails when your Achilles heals. When Allie starts traveling to some more of the big trail races don't miss out on the opportunity to race those too. The places you guys travel to will be amazing! Your speed from the shorter distances will pay off when you start going longer. If that's something you want to do.

Finally I’m better than the athlete special at something , btw I’m a collegiate racewalker for NAIA and no I’m not throwing shade this video is awesome because it brings more love to the sport

It's awesome to see you making peace with your injury and finding joy in what you can. As I'm dealing with my own health issues right now, I appreciate your perspective and I want to learn how to think more like you do.

casual call with an olympian in your video lol. enjoyed the video

I was there! Red jacket and sunglasses working out with Blanchet (4:31)

That cut will shave 69 seconds off your 5K time. Also, you should go hard on a trail race.

Prolly one of my favorite quotes: “Don’t be sad because it’s over, be happy because it happened.”

Haircut looking great, and coaching would be siiiick!

11/10 haircut, 11/10 video, 11/10 post-workout coffee

This video is amazing. Your work with other professionals to get better is a lesson we all can learn from. Keep up the work.

Loved this! And yes to seeing Spencer in a trail race!

Full contact run . In a racewalk event you would d.q.early in the event 😢

When judges don't D.Q. Tom "No Contact" Bosworth nearly enough, Spence has little to worry about.

Gotta agree with allie, try a trail race thatd be sick to test yourself once you are better. Can't wait to see you compete again

The SWAP singlet for the win! Are you sure that was all actually walking?

Loved this video. Yes to the haircut. Yes to the coaching! Check out the "Magness & Marcus on Coaching" podcast, and perhaps join their online community of professional coaches (mostly collage and high school) who delve deep into training and help each other break down what works. Its not for average runner, this is high level coaching gold. Good luck! Oh and YES to more videos like this :)

As soon as Spencer started walking, i had a flash back of my co-worker hurrying to the bathroom

Tom is such a legend, great to see him make an appearance! Great video =D

I noticed the haircut right away! Great job 👏

You should come down to Spokane and record a video Spencer.

Hilarious video. Love the earnestness.

Interesting, good concept

Nah why is 9:32 so relatable

Its a sharp cut- the best yet

trail races are goated. do a trail race spence

Not sure I saw that "kick" Spencer.😅

Trail race 1000% You could crush some high-profile races in the trail world with your talent.

Loving the new haircut.

Hey, Spencer. Cool video. I noticed you said your achilles is not getting better. Going on 9 weeks isnt it? Why not get some imaging done? Why not run through it like most serious runners? You need to put more effort into solving your problems. You can't just wait around for 9 weeks and except AT to magically heal itself. Maybe once it heals, you can go back to being coached by your dad and start running 5ks. Just make it last longer than a few months before you switch your agenda and abandon all progress.

All about the small victories sometimes:)

Kudos on the haircut 🎉

LETS GO ZETH MENTION ‼️‼️‼️‼️

Nice to see Ferris Brown!

Spencer- do you do all the cross training like Allie did when she was injured?

I think you should try an OCR :-)

Just enjoy trail running hills and you will find your way back.

It s nice to see runners tries RaceWalking! Next time, try to walk a mile with a Race Walking technique!! 💪💪

After watching your video, I felt inspired to try my own speed walk sesh. Could I also go a mile in 9:43? Not quite. I made it 0.81 miles. The tips from the pro were great! Haircut: 10 out of 10 Coaching: yes

A better track and a pair of Vaporflys is all you need!

what's your rehab for achilles?

i love how poetical spencer has been over the last few years lol

10 min/mi is way to fast for an average running mile imo, check your sources lol. Like someone else said, most people can't even run a mile period...Also the last vid had potential, but needed a better or actual purpose. Check my comment in that video for some advice.

You should try an ultra spence

Honestly I think if you just did vlogs a lot of people would like them.

Hey Spence, the new haircut is good! How is the achilles rehab going. Have you seen Squat University "How to Fix Achilles Tendonitis" on KZread? But if after a considerable time, it just doesn't seem to be healing, which was the case with mine, I ended up going to Dr Maurer, foot and ankle specialist right near you in Kirkland. He did therapy on mine which brought it back quickly.

Sprint tri and Olympic distance tri and older goals...!

I didn’t start running until I turned 31. Ran my first marathon at 32. Now I just want to do a marathon or ultra in every state.

When I ran my first half marathon there was a older, tried race walker there. He was friends with my brother from his church so we started at the same time. But he blew me out of the water. Like seriously fast. The hair. 11/100. And it SHOULD find a mountain 5k to run.

The haircut is much better!

You were running 😂

Like the hair!!’

9:45 is my prediction without watching the video. Edit: This is actually the first time I guessed a time before watching the whole video and no spoilers, and I actually got it close :D by the way 9:43 is amazing, my fastest 400m walking lap is 1:59, BARELY under 2 minutes and I was so out of it after just 1 lap, I know it's much faster than 2:27 per 400, but it's still crazy you are only going 28 seconds slower than my fastest lap, 4 times in a row, that's amazing man, I would love to break 12 minutes for a 1 mile race walk.

Well it looks like he walk 1600 cone to cone, so your were probably correct with 9 45!

Hahah only time I’m beating u in a event have walked 9:17 Great vid

spencer is kinda caked up

last time I was injured I walked a ton and best I could do was like 12:30

The floor is actual lava

Would love to see Spence move to the long distance, he can start with a 10k then a half and move his way when he feels ready to the marathon.

My mile pr is 5:44, so it's cool to know that i'm pretty close to the race-walk mile WR of 5:31. Obviously much slower than competitive running mile times but still 😄

haircut 69/10 💯

Nice.

Allie should hit those jumps on her bike

Average person can’t even walk a mile

I think ALL runners at some point should try racewalking a mile, train for a week or so then do a time trial. Humbling and you will get to know strange new aspects of your own body.

why not telling us more about your achilles tendon issues?we may can help

😂😂👍

Actual attempt at 12:01

I'm telling you, switch to racewalking and you'll be an Olympian in no time

I cant even image a walker doing a 5:31!!! Hair, shorter better.

Do the Goggins challenge when you’re healed!

been running for years and can hardly break 12 minute pace, what nonsensical data did you get telling you that the average is 10 minutes....

Also you already make money from running that's more then 99% of us. Look at the positives. keep running when you aren't in pain. Things are just getting started spence!

cant stick to a coach/training plan for a whole year, but is considering coaching people wtaf bro

the toxic positivity is big on this one!

I was surprised to see Boys & Girls 1-mile racewalk leading off 2024 Nike Indoor Nationals. I just thought it was a strange event that only popped up every 4yrs at the Olympics.

Hey TRP included a clip of you in his Ingebrigtsen/Kerr vid. kzread.info/dash/bejne/kZhou7d6mZyteqQ.htmlfeature=shared&t=30

You need a lot of work before you could walk in front of the judges. You're not using your hips, and you aren't straightening your knee.

Is Rogaine on the Prohibited List? If not, potential sponsorship?

Yes, how about some high school coaching?

did you divorce your wife?

Trail race is a move tbh get on that rn spence

you should be a coach

Would love to see you coach someday.
