Mo's hair stealing the show, though! 😂 Joking aside, will try it. I'm aiming to get my half-marathon PB sub 2hrs. 💪🏻
5x’s per week for me. A tempo run Interval session Long run 2 somewhat easy runs about half in zone 3 and half in zone 4. Not in this order. I usually do the intervals at the beginning of the week to get that 💩 done. I hate and love intervals. I hate doing them, but I love when they are done.
I believe runners see the biggest improvement when they learn and start taking advice from others. The tried and tested methods fundamentally work
Beast. You just ran 3 back to back sub 20 5ks as a training run. Love the workout, although it'll be a while before I can give it a try.

With 5k warm up and cool down probably faster than my flat out!
Thanks for including both km and miles! ❤
I love the diversity of runners in all the videos, especially since i've been watching y'all from the beginning of my running journey. Seeing my progress represented by different runners is so cool. I had a "memory" pop up on running 3 miles a year ago and my time was roughly 32:00, and just this past monday my 3 mile time at an easier pace was roughly 25:00. My best time so far is 21:56 and my goal is to get as close to 18:00 as possible. Thank you all for the lovely videos and tips!!
I loved this video. You can really tell how hard Mo works. I'm a beginner runner and although I love the average runner content, it's really inspiring to see someone more experienced smash out a session like this.

Heavy session. Definitely adding that to the long run workout rotation
Brilliant video, always top quality from the team
Loved this ....as in everyone of your videos where Running Channel Runners are actually out running, whether a race or training makes me want to "get to it"....and loved Mo's quote at the end "Finish Strong" ..I always try to remember to tell myself that✨
Great video, with so much information talking about threshold pace this one really keeeps it simple. Well done guys 🙂
Dang. It's humbling to watch even MO get tired! How'd he do that AND hold his composure?! Inspirational!
I will definitely will give this one a try. 💪🏻 thank you for always showing new workout ideas. 🙏 i hope it will help me to run a new pr in september in copenhagen and get unter 1:40 hour.
Great video. I consider myself an average runner and this is the avg times that i run. Im not a pro but i can run these times ao this is relevant and im thankful for this channel showing videos for all running levels and times
20 20 20 is hands down one of the best sessions there is. Very adaptable and really hits hard if done right ✅️
will try it as it looks like a very solid tempo speed boost exsercise! Good work Mo!
Agree TRC includes mixed abilities of runners and Mo does say adjust your paces! Great video I'm going to give it a, try xxx
That's a really great way to train. Thanks for sharing. Your videos are always so inspiring.

Thank you for this! I really lost confidence after a disappointing race in February; i must add this to my rotation for the next race!
Interesting video! Mo will definitely hit his half marathon goal!
That is one brutal workout… I managed to break 80 minutes last year, but I’d be seriously dreading this workout 🙈 You’re a beast mr Mo 💪🏻
This session looks like a great one to throw into the midweek schedule. Nice job, Mo! =D
Sub 80mins 🔥🔥🔥 all the best Mo, great workout, will give it a go 👌👍
Love the idea of this workout. I did a slightly shorter version of it last week with progressive paces over 2-mile chunks. Would have to slow it down a bit to hold those for 20 minutes. My goal is to go sub-1:40 for a half in the fall. Thanks for the tips, Mo!
Thank you for this video! I'm trying to increase my cadence stride and speed.
The way this video came out the day after I signed up for my first half-marathon ❤ let's go!
Yo, you lot, it‘s always just such a delight watching your vids. Last year, I went through a very stinging break up, discovering running as a coping mechanism (so cliche, I know) and you at The Running Channel have been with me along the journey, doing my first 10k, half, subbing 1:45 and I will take you along with me to my first full. Absolutely grateful to you all! ❤

Mo just brings so much good feel vibes. He's been a real breath of fresh air and definitely a really good addition to the team. Pace wise he's a lot quicker than me, but that doesn't matter. I just love watching him go out and conquer his own goals.

Amazing, Last November I've done half marathon in 1h48, what trainning plan have you followed to arrive to this level please ? Best regards
Another great video. Thank you, Mo. I'm confident you'll run 80 minutes.

Looking Good Sir
Good tips ! My best half marathon is 1 44 , and best 13.1 miler in training was 1 45 . If I’m trying get down 140 half should I do most of my tempo runs 7-8 miles at 8 min to 750 paces? And try to gradually work down to 750 paces for 6-8 milers ?
PR on watching the latest video!!
The Running Channel training future Olympians. Moe's becoming turning on beast mode 💪🏃. The lesson Im reminded is run by feel and understanding paces. I've been training only by heart rate/base training. I'm curios what watch Moe is using while training. Keep it up Moe. Thanks Running Channel great content and motivation

Does the 20mins x 20mins x 20mins rule apply regardless of pace? Or should slower runners elongate the sections?

Exhausted just watching! Are your shoes the Asics Metaspeed Sky Paris? How do you find them?
Mo running on this tempo and talking is insane.
What I would like to know is what you used to progress to this point. Obviously you cant just go run a 4min/km. I currently have a 1h55m pb and would like to lower it to 80min but I know I wont be able to hold that pace for a session so do I progressively increase the pace over months or what did you do?
Keeps saying we won't hear from him in the next block, but then we hear from him!
Did Mo have a video on his Tokyo Marathon race?
30 minutes off my half marathon? That would be a work record. Worth a shot lol
Wait, so I have to already run faster than my target HM pace? According to garmin my current HM pace is 4:40ish but I have a target of 4:20 for HM in September. I believe I should hit that target in 1-2 months and then my target will probably go further. Are you sure I shouldn't run those 20min at slower and faster than my current HM pace instead and just increase the pace together with my race predictor?
Enjoyed the video. What suggestions would you give to someone who can’t read their watch pacing without stopping and putting reading glasses on. I find ‘feeling’ pacing nearly impossible and am always miles out.

How does age effect your endurance and pace ?
That's a typo right? 5k warmup, 3x20m progressive, then 5k cooldown? A 5-10 minute warmup makes a lot more sense, because otherwise, that'd be a half-marathon length workout even at my running speed.
@agilagilsen8714

It really does seem like a very long run, plus if you run on relaxed warmup pace for the first and last 5km you’re looking at a 2-3hour workout for most people, who will obviously be running quite a bit slower than someone who does an 80min half marathon
What park is this? Somewhere in london?
What’s your heart rate when doing this
Let me borrow those shoes bro 🔥🔥🔥🔥
As a sprinter I really despise those 5k warm up and cool down runs. What is that?
I might try this for my next half marathon training block. My only question is the total distance you ran in total. 5k warmup and the 60 min of tempo run is about 17-18 km in total? Sounds like a lot for a tempo workout? 😅
@sergeytorba
28 күн бұрын
Actually it was more than 25 km in total. 20 min at 4 min/km is 5 km. 2nd and 3rd blocks are even a bit longer.
yes but i bet that's not the only reason why you improved so much in the HF, probably you must have increased your milage quite a lot... THAT'S THE KEY
5k warm up and 5k cool down? with the 1h run in the middle they it's going to be the whole distance as a training run?
