  6. @na-dk9vm on March 13, 2025 at 6:19 pm

    My 10km is at 46 mins on a "hilly route". What would the ideal monday-saturday look like to break 40 mins 10km? My aim is 10km in sub 40mins by october

    Best way to run longer faster is just smoke meth before you go running…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…

    I utilize my outdoor trampoline for building ligaments etc.

  9. @sophieminter0 on March 13, 2025 at 6:27 pm

    I have a bad habit of having a pace that’s too slow and saving too much energy in the end lol

  10. @kathrinivanovic8247 on March 13, 2025 at 6:29 pm

    Do you have a video on improving downhill technique?

  11. @drbonesshow1 on March 13, 2025 at 6:29 pm

    I can run as far as the cops will force me to run. Then my escape.

  12. @randyusmc0131 on March 13, 2025 at 6:30 pm

    I don’t like your shirt.

  13. @Amali70_4 on March 13, 2025 at 6:30 pm

    Does this help you in bed?

  14. @blazefrost4714 on March 13, 2025 at 6:33 pm

    THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED FOR MY PE in school )my teacher is currently doing one attire = 2 rounds of my field all for one one for all

  15. @thelastshot9945 on March 13, 2025 at 6:33 pm

    I want to improve my endurance, but the only cardio I do is a 15min run on the treadmill before every workout mon-fri. Should I dedicate a day to just cardio and run outside rather then on a treadmill ?

  16. @LWRC on March 13, 2025 at 6:34 pm

    Eluid Kipchoge said there is nothing better than putting in high mileage to improve your speed for distance running! This is not at a fast pace but at a comfortable conversation capable pace! I think if anyone knows, he would as one of the greatest marathoners of all time!

  17. @marktbarr on March 13, 2025 at 6:34 pm

    Thank you.

  18. @narutobolt on March 13, 2025 at 6:36 pm

    Didnโ€™t know the scout from tf2 had a channel all about running

    Thank you very good Information.

  21. @chandrashekharsingh2396 on March 13, 2025 at 6:39 pm

    too much bookish language..
    Must had been kept with simple presentation without any scientific jargon

  22. @ryeyan8613 on March 13, 2025 at 6:42 pm

    My knees is killing me. I finish my 5k in 1 hour.

  23. @louisadkins9830 on March 13, 2025 at 6:43 pm

    I’m 65 and ran a half marathon 2 hours and 8 minutes. I want to get to less than 2 hours because I want to train for marathon at 4 hours

  24. @peterwhite7428 on March 13, 2025 at 6:43 pm

    Very reassuring. Iโ€™m 76 now, ran a ten k three months ago. Stopped because of the heat. Now Iโ€™m back to building long, easy running. My muscles are returning and my back doesnโ€™t hurt. I want to increase time/distance, some speed but that will come I hope

  25. @00great226 on March 13, 2025 at 6:43 pm

    running for longer time is common sense

  26. @cxa011500 on March 13, 2025 at 6:46 pm

    My body runs out of fuel as soon as I get out of bed ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

  27. @michaelnavarro8095 on March 13, 2025 at 6:46 pm

    How long is a long run

  28. @SkyrimPlus on March 13, 2025 at 6:46 pm

    I like your "6 dollar shirts" shirt. Are you a PE teacher?

  29. @teenakowbel4655 on March 13, 2025 at 6:49 pm

  30. @MurhsiziJessica on March 13, 2025 at 6:49 pm

  31. @Roosterjello on March 13, 2025 at 6:50 pm

  32. @crystalkeara8868 on March 13, 2025 at 6:53 pm

    Ugh I went from mountain running to bedridden essentially overnight. It took 2 years to figure out the why then a year to recover. Along that journey somehow managed to obtain a few major injuries. Everything started form a spinal fluid leak, then got Lyme form a tick, broke my sacrum falling in ice and a few other injuries that set me back. Now Iโ€™m ready, but starting from zero. Im surprised my body still knows how to run and seems to recover pretty fast. I need to keep it really easy because I have POTS, MCAS and a B12 deficiency. I like your training style. As of now Iโ€™m just running 2.5 miles every other day with a 2.5 mile recovery walk uphill at an easy pace on mountain trails. Not sure how Iโ€™ll know when to push further. Being that I have these conditions if I push to fast then I end up back at zero. Any tips?

  33. @mirirshadahmad1461 on March 13, 2025 at 6:54 pm

    What about 12 km in 57 minutes.

  34. @user-gj6jq5dk4z on March 13, 2025 at 6:55 pm

    Great advices and very well explained. Thank you!!

  35. @yousefs4252 on March 13, 2025 at 6:57 pm

    what is considered a long run ?

  36. @OneFocusPhotos on March 13, 2025 at 6:57 pm

    Would love to get a running schedule that includes like easy runs, long runs, and seed running. Im very new to running but want to be more in shape for football.

  37. @MihaiGoRunning on March 13, 2025 at 6:58 pm

    Very good clip Jason! Thanks for sharing with us those 3 key ways for us, runners to improve Stamina. Came here after I saw your interview with Paul the DevRunner. Best wishes dear friend!

  38. @LIOLER007 on March 13, 2025 at 6:59 pm

    That t-shirt gave me the urge to uppercut his bald head, sorry bro

  39. @Tangerine321 on March 13, 2025 at 6:59 pm

    Did they patch this?

  40. @Kingofphilly92 on March 13, 2025 at 7:00 pm

    The shirt makes me trust this guy

  41. @BicylePath on March 13, 2025 at 7:01 pm

    I am about to return to running after recovering from a stress fracture in my navicular bone. I am itching to get back to my BQ days, but I don’t want to rush back into it. Any tips for building endurance after an injury?

  42. @YourMom-dq3wo on March 13, 2025 at 7:02 pm

    I canโ€™t even run I have to get on the bus at 6.20 am and itโ€™s dark and when I get home I have to do chores and itโ€™s dark

  43. @georgeramos3632 on March 13, 2025 at 7:02 pm

    What fuck what was the running exercise????

  44. @paulcarlson4230 on March 13, 2025 at 7:04 pm

    I feel comfortable and yes I can talk but my heart rate is higher than I keep reading it should be

  45. @michaelmccarthy8628 on March 13, 2025 at 7:04 pm

    ๐Ÿ˜‚ when you are smoking crack you don’t run, you only imagine you do. So unlikely your running will improve. I have no/ziltch/nada scientific evidence for this ๐Ÿ˜Š

  46. @kandebriscoe1838 on March 13, 2025 at 7:06 pm

    ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…
