The Life of a Long Distance Runner

[Hufmagoo]

I love Brooks shoes

[TrevelyanTech]

Wanna know what running shoe to get? Problem solved with the new iPhone Application called ‘Wet Test’ on iTunes. If there’s a shoe for you we will find it.

[cocopopsgalore]

im heaven767 i've done 3km in 10.49 minutes(a bit less than 2 miles)

and i can do a mile(1.6km) in 5.37

[patpatomegatron]

UGH.....gayest song in the world....

[Heaven767]

I love running, I just competed in a mile competition at my school, I took 4th place and my time was 6: 37, it's a lot of pressure when ppl are watching you but for some reason it's so fun.

[beatlesfan07480]

i run about 9 to 11 minute a mile i guess it's because i am short but i run at a good past the fastest i ran a mile was 7 minutes.

last year i always ran 6 miles in an hour

then in the fall i ran 8 miles in an hour and half

then my 10 mile run i ran 2 hours

[ray58ny]

or smart

[KeKambeng123]

ive play football,rugby,badminton,volle­yball,handball since in school. i just started running a year ago n left all of those sports.great!

[nates811]

@terrapatra ok, well I looked it up and running 40miles in 1:50 min is running a 2:45 mile pace, that's lapping the guy who set the world record in the mile as a pace for your so called "40mile run" when you were 14 years old...... False!

[terrapatra]

i used to go out for one really long run once a week, it was a 40 mile distance and it took 1 hour 50 minutes to complete and when it was really hot out my clothes would literally be soaked in sweat and i would lose at least 20 pounds but i quit running because it turned me into a twig and its really not the greatest sport ever, i think powerlifting, strongman, and olympic lifting are the greatest sports because they dont turn you into a twig

[metsrule107]

@terrapatra I don't see how you could quit running just like that after doing it so much.

[terrapatra]

@metsrule107 damn i had a really good long comment but stupid youtube keeps saying error, try again so im just going to tell you, its easy to not wanna remain a skinny weakling, i think its more of a sport for the women than the men

[westyn]

@terrapatra

lmao there is no way you ran 40miles in under 2 hours. or that you lost 20lbs in one run, otherwise you would be long past dead mate

[terrapatra]

@westyn yeah it was 40 miles, i looked on a map, i know because i ran from inside of my city to the next city and back and i had a watch with me, i recorded my times on paper and you know how much you sweat when its like plus 30 outside and your running for almost 2 hours with only one bottle of water, i lost like half that weight during the winter time also its much harder to run during the winter

[imflyfyi]

@terrapatra this guy is obviously a tool. it is humanly impossible to run 40 miles under 2 hours, thats like 3 minutes a mile, which is 43 seconds faster than the world record in the mile. it also humanly impossible to lose 20 pounds too, you would be dead you idiot now gtfo

[terrapatra]

@imflyfyi well i was 6ft tall for that whole 2 years that i was a runner, 14-16 years old and i had long legs so maybe thats how i did it , im 6ft4 right now so if i got back into running i could run faster also usain bolt is 6ft5 and doesnt even have to run full speed and he always wins

[patrick71489]

@imflyfyi I didn't finish reading these posts but that kid is talking all kinds of nonsense.....OH I ran 40 miles in less than 2 hours !!! and I dont like running cuz it turned me to a twigg durrrr duh durrr.... what a reject. He obviously is just trying to get acceptance and TRYing to be cool. He has no idea of common sense or sanity, or running. :)

[bsm6776]

professional marathoners run 26 miles in two hours...there is no way you run 40 miles in 1 hour 50 minutes

[cosg9531]

@terrapatra  Well, now that you've given up fantasy running, how many tons do you fantasy lift?

[Chrisfoshiz]

@terrapatra Hey moron, You do realize that NO HUMAN BEING had ever broken 2 hours in the MARATHON. Which is 26.2 miles buddy. So for you to say you could do 40 miles in less than 2 hours is, COMPLETE... BULL $#!T

[raybanfandom]

I love my New Balance shoes but whatever shoe you chose, chose to use them and just RUN!!!

[PITSIRIS]

keep on running!!! i wish i could run again .

i suffer from deep vein thrombosis and seronegative arthritis and i havent run for the 15 months.

i hope i wake up one day and i will run again

[johnjoeba]

[metsrule107]

@johnjoeba run.

[bsm6776]

@johnjoeba keep running and build mileage slowly

[cicirunner]

@johnjoeba I'm not sure what you consider long distance, but I'm a cross country runner and have tons of helpful videos on my channel.

[musicrocker2324]

Ive been running ultra long distance runs for 33 years.. Hardly ever missed any days off in those 33 years, man its lonely out there..

[TheGoalSetter]

@ahh346 The music from Rocky is optimistic...something you rarely hear on the radio.

[SIHELL]

i was once able to only run 2 - 4 miles. Now i'm running 12 -14 miles everyday. 20-100 degree weather. Just amazing how one can transform themselves.

[Tredog14]

@SIHELL same i use to only run 2-4 miles now i run 7- 10 miles of train for spring track , winter track, and cross country

[bsm6776]

@SIHELL yes I agree...the body is amazing

[marshalljimduncan]

[97dodgecummins]

[naibafrocker]

[Jumpstar321]

[DoretoMan123454]

@naibafrocker Exactly dude, i never run with anything other then asics. best running shoe out there.

[pocacolaAN]

You are great!! I'm training for my first Marathon! The Rome city Marathon. I never run before, but i'm training really seriously...and i really appreciate your video!

[RICKROLLEDSUX]

[thereisnoel]

ya know... they do make cars for these things lol :)

[woahsteveo]

Jezze.. I have a whole counter in my room dedicated to all of my medals and a whole caninet of running clothes. deffinatly prefer nike's. Love running. If your running near a grass field try bare foot.

[Blancbuster]

That was really good, especially representing the NC High Country.

[karrcrossdpt18]

yep! u got it right!

[jesdunk]

I love my running T-shirts! For the longest time, they were the only shirts I owned...I have since acquired a few dress shirts.

[thefallen2124]

ASICS!

[applesaz]

awful music

[applesaz]

youll notice...no runners are sad people.

[finishingkick94]

im just glad im not the only freak like that out there. i understand exactly how you feel

[Josheeboy]

ha, asics girl! that's all i wear too

[jonjon9i]

Your an amazing soul!! I can't believe the passion that you have for running, it is not only unbelievable, but motivational and inspiring! Awesome video, very well done!! =]

[runmeover1]

running great sport ever...

[TCarbonaro]

@runmeover1 so is wrestling, cuz both sports are just yourself. one on one.

[KeKambeng123]

@runmeover1 they encourage u to believe in yourself! my confidence grows everytime i run

[ELJefeDesierto]

@runmeover1

The greatest sport: Boxing. Later running

[BjornParee]

Great video !! For those who run they totally understand. For those who are not running : GET RUNNING !!

[josh112354]

way to make running seem like a sport for poofs. you suck

[townsendTUBE]

really nice video its so true and original..i should start telling people to go look at this vid when they ask why do you Like running ha

[pimpdaddy552008]

i dare you to keep on running haha you guys stink like foulanga

[oggypark]

yer not so grate im afraid, no disrespect to your self, just not a grate vid.

im sure though with some more varied clips of you traning you could make a decent, none educational vid.

keep on running!

[filoIII]

i liked the jesse owens quote. i did my first twenty miler this morn. OUCHY!!!  Thanks for the vid

[nayim85]

i'm a long distance runner and have been since the age of 12,, and i'd jus like to say you've made this sport look even more borin than chess.. killd it

[7854040]

DUMB if u ask me

[therunningpickle]

corny as hell

[Bonomax85]

I can say only... 1) you're great

2) I'm a rookie runner ( I have finished my first half marathon this sunday), but I wanna get faster and stronger! NO PAIN, NO GAIN

[Sichotic]

lmao, i probably fall under that category, but this girl is forgetting about the msot important things such as stretching, to get that long stride out at the begining!

[speddi101]

i am a long distance runner and the night before a big race a eat a good meal then the day of i only eat oat meal and drink egg whites...it is good because you don't have a lot of heavy food sitting on your stomach

[laurac63]

i like this video, it tells my story only, im 15 and well i dont have a billion t shirts, but i totally get what you mean, and i personally do think that long distance running is a hard thing, but the goodness that comes from it is that i get better everyday, and i stay completely fit!

oh and i get to eat almost anything i want, but i do eat healthy, most of the time.

[Omegax9000]

nice!

[deepaknara]

I agree 100% being a long distance runner myself! However, I disagree on the 'healthy diet' part. I love loading up on pizza, soda, french fries and fried chicken before long runs. No joke. I treadmill train 7 miles daily, sometimes more.
