Wht more could you want, best running content I’ve seen in a while. Badass
I totally agree. I hope it stays up for at least a year because I tell you what, I'm playing 5 minutes of this video before my own training and racing. Watching this really motivates me. It's like us "regular" people maybe things didn't go great earlier at work, or a bill arrived and the mood is gloomy, and I'm ALREADY coming up with reasons to NOT get out the door - sometimes let's say it's Tuesday and I was supposed to run, I might say "I'll just run on Wednesday !!". But watching this video will MORE LIKELY get me out the door on Tuesday. And this is why I love our elite athletes, because they may not even be aware, but they inspire some of us in extremely positive ways. I mean, I LOVE QB Trevor Lawrence and Baker Mayfield and Tom Brady before he retired. And those guys can inspire me some. Especially with like Tom he inspires me in the area of nutrition and hydration. But if not like I have a football game to suit up for {I guess I could play in a flag football league LOL} - HOWEVER, Conner does the EXACT same sport I do, so Conner is MUCH more inspiring to me that a Tom Brady. So I want to THANK Conner for his hard work and I hope he makes tons of money doing what he loves, and just let him know, he literally is having a positive impact on other people.
@@mustardseedsociety As a highschool distance runner I totally agree.
@@moneyandvideogames Thanks - I totally forgot about that comment !! It's kind of strange the Olympics are over. I guess we'll see Conner in Falmouth ?? I wonder if Grant will move up to the marathon. One thing I will say, I think the marathon should be the first event, because the way they have it set up now, by the time the marathon finally starts, I almost felt the excitement was gone. Here in Texas, NBC did NOT show the marathon LIVE but instead played replays of the previous evening. It's 3 days later and I have only seen a few brief clips of Conner in the Olympic marathon. Yet NBC showed HOURS and HOURS and HOURS and HOURS of gymnastics. I mean I watched the "team" gymnastics and when it was over, I kind of thought it was actually OVER. NOPE !! I was wrong on that one !! Then it was another 4 days on "individual", but no live marathon coverage.
The two men to beat in Orlando in my eyes
Yes indeed
I see them taking the top 2 spots, number 3 is a wild card... Rupp on a good day may clinch it, but let's be honest, he hasn't been up to par the last few years.
@@unfliteredandunapologetic3004 I did not even know Rupp was trying out for the team.
They gone have to get thru aaron Davidson
@@mustardseedsociety He doesn't really have much of a career left, he's done.
31:05 Amazing, these guys can "relax" at 4min 45 pace. Conner and Clayton are incredible athletes!
Yep - that just blows my mind. The other thing that blows my mind is the absolute lack of "huffing and puffing". And the other thing is to never forget, this is at 4500 feet elevation.
And East Africans relax at 4:30!
Great video! Not sure about the car blocking traffic in the bike lane, but great effort!
Yea 337, kind of agree !! And don't get me wrong - I totally absolutely 100% to the max LOVED this video and I tell you what, I will play this this video {a few minutes of it LOL} before I do my training in the upcoming months because man oh man this video is so inspiring. WHOEVER put this video together, I thank you 1000 times over !! - HOWEVER, I did have SOME concerns of working out next to cars on busy streets.
I for sure see where you’re coming from, but I have a feeling in Provo this time of year it’s suuuper tough to find the perfect, safe route to do this type of training.
Side note: Clayton’s face after that one car laid on the horn was hilarious 😂
@@SimoFromOhio Well what I was alluding to, without being dramatic, is if you get hit by a car and you have Olympic aspirations, you aint going to the Olympics. In 2012 in Euless, Texas, I witnessed a lady get hit by a car. She was on the heavy side - probably twice that of a "petite" woman and when the car hit her, she was tossed 5 feet up in the air and thankfully she lived, but her leg was totally messed up. I pray to GOD this day she was able to keep her leg. This is 2024 and people drive while on their cellphones on. {I don't} I have seen so many distracted drivers out there, and I quit running on roads. When you run out there with cars, you are taking a huge unnecessary risk in my opinion. The bike lanes are a total joke. You're still out there with the cars. About 7 years ago I almost witnessed a tragedy with 2 cyclists. I saw them up ahead and I slowed from 50 to 30 and went into the left lane and they were going about 20. So I approached the cyclists one lane over AND at 10 mph delta. HOWEVER, in my rear view mirror I saw a car approaching in the right lane at extremely high speeds and this car was NOT slowing down - I felt very bad because there was nothing I could do. If I blew my horn, the cyclists would think I was mad at them - and also I had to just focus on my safety so I slowed even more so the approaching car could steer left. But the car kept coming at extremely high speeds and man oh man they nearly ran the cyclists over and the last few seconds before disaster the car steers in the left lane. About 20 seconds later I passed the cyclists at 10 mph delta and they were chit chatting with each other NOT even a clue they came within inches of death. So my advice, is do NOT train on roads with the cars either as a runner or cyclist. Use the bike trails or track or cross country courses.
@@mustardseedsocietyunfortunately these are common training grounds in Provo. But hey, they do it for the altitude.
@@banksj54You mean High Elevation. If you're in Miami, you're still at altitude. It's just that your altitude is 10 feet. The other thing that should be considered if one is seeking high elevation to train, is Density Altitude. Density Altitude is altitude corrected for non standard temperature with the reference being sea level - 59 degrees F and 29.92 inches of mercury. As you go up in altitude from that standard, air will have a predetermined density at various altitudes. But here's the thing - 99% of the time there is no "standard atmosphere". In order to get the REAL picture of what your body has to overcome, you need to calculate density altitude which changes by the hour. As an example if you're in Denver elevation 5280 feet and let's say the barometric pressure is 29.50 {that means if you dug a hole one mile deep and measured the pressure, it would read 29.50} and let's say it's 80F degrees, your density altitude according to a DA calculator tool is 8500 feet !! So even though you're at 5280 feet, if you go train on an 80 degree day, your body performs as if you were at 8500 feet. That's why I get a kick out of all these You Tube videos who talk about "training at altitude", but totally oblivious to what really matters - DENSITY ALTITUDE.
Love this type of content. Excited for what’s next!
I totally agree Jose !! This is perhaps the BEST video I have ever seen of top notch distance runners in their training. I LOVED those shots of Conner taking the right turns, because that gives the viewer a really good perspective of how fast the pace is. Of course in every race I have seen of Conner, Conner does APPEAR to accelerate around turns - now if or not he actually does, I can't be sure. But good grief, Conner is like a "running machine" - it's as if he's just "floating" - if you're not careful your mind will play tricks with you because Conner makes it seem like it's SO EASY to do what he does, and your brain will say "aw heck, I can do that !!", only for the other part of the brain to SCREAM, "in your dreams !!".
Clayton Young... so freaking composed at the end, he looks like he's coming out of a hot yoga class
Happy for these two. I don't know Clay well, but I've been following Conner from his Frosh year at BYU, I think around 2017.
I saw him come up just short in 2021, but so happy to see him jump up in distance and succeed in 2024.
He's still very young for a marathoner, so good days ahead.
I hope this video stays up awhile !! This is what I need to get me out the door to do my scaled down - YES SCALED down workouts. I find this very inspiring even though these 3 are light years faster than me. I'm really amazed how there is practically ZERO "huffing and puffing". And Ed, if you read this, I'll never forget watching you in the 1986 US XC championships in Waco, Texas with Pat Porter. You 2 became my favorite athletes {of ANY sport}. I actually did get to meet Pat Porter in person 1992, but so sad we lost him July 25, 2012. I'll just never forget you and Pat just tearing up the course {12K}. But Conor became my favorite American athlete {of ANY sport} probably 3 years ago when I saw him on You Tube in cross country at Oklahoma State - when he pounced away from Nico !!
This is Center Street in Provo. It’s really flat and no stop lights out to the lake so they can stay focused and get in a rhythm. I’m so excited for these guys and praying all will go well for them! So happy they can train together and proud of how tough they have been training in the winter! Good luck !!!
What an absolute fire workout🔥
4th set in 13:43 tf 😓😱
You gotta hand it to skinny Mormon white guys. They level up US distance running.
Very good runners for Americans the world and American records are being broken more frequently. Why? Drugs. They’ve have found a a way to prevent lactate from accumulating lol it’s pretty simple but complex.
These are phenomenal athletes and to think that somewhere out in another country, there are other athletes who will run a marathon faster than the 2:09 they did in the Olympic trials. Incredible athletes.
Wow! One helluva workout. If this doesnt motivate you i dont know what will.
Can't help but support both of them
This was an amazing workout to watch!! Thank you for sharing! Hoping to see these two in a US uniform soon.
finally got some footage of my glorious goat of running: conner mantz
Yea -he's my favorite American athlete of ALL sports. Now my question is, I've seen his name spelled with an "O" and with a "E". I'm assuming the "E" is the correct way, but if I'm wrong, somebody please correct me.
@@mustardseedsociety don't disrespect my glorious goat like that
@@NoahMartin1 Well I guess I have been spelling it wrong - it's with an "E". LOL. But I noticed you used all lower case letters and that's a "no - no" LOL. Bur it's all good. Frankly as much as I'm a Galen Rupp fan, I don't think Galen will beat Conner on Feb 3rd.
@@mustardseedsociety my glorious king will NOT let that happen
These guys are amazing!
Top 2 guys at Orlando right here
Phenomenal content and video quality! Thank you.
Savage workout! Holy cow! 🔥
Found this after they went 1-2 at Olympic trials. So awesome 👍
I’ve been hooked watching this amazing quality thank you
Best runners in the country getting honked at, something EVERY runner in the country can relate to!
Insane
Favorites, they made that clear in Chicago...Orlando a flat course as well this weather in this current workout vs forecast for Orlando? An equalizer?
Guess that's why we watch
One thing that nobody ever seems to talk about is Density Altitude. Density Altitude is altitude corrected for non standard temperature and humidity. This particular workout was done on a colder day at 4551 elevation. So that means the DA was probably about 3800 feet {I can only guess because I don't know what the pressure was in inches of mercury on that day in Provo} The general rule of DA is heat will hurt you more than cold will help you. So let's say a density altitude of 3800 feet. In Orlando, were for all practical purposes we're talking sea level. So if the temp is 59 F on Feb 3rd, but the humidity is kind of high, we're looking at a DA of maybe 500 feet. However, if it's a warm day with high humidity, my guess it would have a density altitude of maybe 1500 feet. So no matter how you cut it, in theory, if should be a benefit to race in Orlando verses training in Provo. But it's not always cut and dry. I do know one thing - training at high elevation will NOT make you a super runner. Because the human body will adjust and readjust.
Connors form is crazy for a road athlete. All that sway in the legs he looks like 400 runner
Elite vid
Mantz is an animal, both are going to go 1-2 in the trials
turned out to be a prophetic statement!
Looks a stunning place to run!!
Great Video!
Great content. Personally I don’t see the need for music and might help with the ease of making these!
Completely agree. I like hearing the footsteps.
Agree -- NO MUSIC PLS! @@pinkbirdsfly
Actually USUALLY I would agree with you on the music. Nothing I can't stand more than a You Tuber putting music on a non music video. HOWEVER, in this PARTICULAR video, I have to break my own rule. I thought the blend of the music was absolutely PERFECT. It was JUST enough - kind of like salt - a little salt to bring out the flavor. Then when the talking parts came up, the music momentary ended and when it played, it was just right. Just like Kevin Costner said in the movie "Field of Dreams" - "it's PERFECT". I mean whoever edited this video - I'm like WOW !! Absolute fantastic job whoever edited this video !!
Great video but the music interfere with the enjoyment.
CONGRATS GUYS!!!!! OLYMPIC TEAM USA
Way to go boys!
Amazing video
Well , that’s crazy! Both of them are Mechanical Engineering 😊😊
Ice, ice, baby! Love the content.
Great content. Hope we see more of this
Outstanding ❤❤🎉🎉
Great runners. Great influence.
God damn your the best out there. Please bring more videos
you are either a beanie and no gloves guy or a gloves and no beanie guy
Really enjoyed this style of video. None of the cheap bravado that tries to pass for quality on lots of runtube channels.
its 85 here in FL today, hopefully wont be like that for raceday it was literally under 70here for 3 straight weeks. Cold front coming in again this monday, see youll out on the course
13:58 🔥last set. Just fckin Insane.
Someone get Conner some gloves. 😄
Fr nigga sponsored by the biggest shoe company and everything 😂💯
Good job Coach!
Ed: Don't run this last one under 4:40 pace.
Clayton: Okay.
Conner: Okay. (Sike)
Least I know im not the only one that gets honked at by traffic. A lot my jerk drivers nowadays. One guy was offended cause I wouldnt run in front of his truck and when I circled around back behind him he cussed me out saying aggressive things. Just cant win. I think some drivers just looking to hurt someone or something to take their lifes anger out on. I strictly run on trails and jogging areas nowadays
Great video and bgm! Considering the workout routes in California or Arizona, it seems to be lower elevation, high temperature, and high humidity. Just wondering how Mantz & Young adjust themselves in the different environment?
In terms of hip flexion ...
Are u surpose to land with a slightly lower pelvis as seen with them ( if u watch they quadriceps when running .. it's not straight up in the air but slightly lower to engage to quads more.. like squatting.. does this help with shock absorption
Please God protect these boys running on Geneva road 🙏
Gold and silver coming up
Does Mormonism give you super powers?😅
Both v smooth. Mantz looks like he's running downhill and Young like he's running uphill. 🤔
And the rest was history....
Share the road next time, please.
Can’t make excuses in races if you race in your workout *last set*
Aaron Davidson doesn’t have shit on these guys
Bro said “reward if found” tf is the reward 🤔🤣
I wonder when a typical Provo resident sees Conner training on the local street if they realize that they are seeing the top distance runner in the USA ?? {or do they just say to themselves, "oh there's goes a jogger" ?? LOL}
@@mustardseedsocietythat’s what I was thinking hahaha
What happened to Jared Ward? Is he still running in the trials?
Nice little package Conner !
Not sure about the old man driving his car in the bike lane
No bikes are out on this road with this type of weather. That’s the famous Coach Eyestone. Traffic can suffer for one hour for history to be made. There aren’t a lot of other places to run on a day with ice and snow here. It’s a less used road.
They just need to shave another six minutes to compete on international level. In five months.
Please about your diet
Whose the guy in the back? The rabbit?
Does Mantz suffer from exercise induced asthma?
Кто от горына ?
Don't run in Utah . . . terrible air. Run in some remote place with better air.
I gotta say although mantz would destroy me any day his form is trash which is interesting and shows how each persons bodies “efficient” can be different
I think his form is amazing, not bad at all!
guess what
why in the world would you ever do a workout on a road full of cars?
There are very few places that are flat over large enough areas in Provo that don't have lots of traffic. Add that it had snowed quite a bit when they ran this workout (as you can see some of the sidewalks were not plowed), and there aren't many options.
I have run the roads they are running on in this video multiple times even at night.
Do you drink coffee? Sorry
I am wondering how the f is connor injury free with that atrocious running style
I was thinking the same
I love the video but quit blocking the f ing lane with the car
He is protecting them from getting hit! There is no where else to run a workout like this here
Hated you blocking traffic at times. Nobody needs to see Mantz look like he’s sprinting at 4:45 pace that bad.
These guys are amazing!
These are phenomenal athletes and to think that somewhere out in another country, there are other athletes who will run a marathon faster than the 2:09 they did in the Olympic trials. Incredible athletes.
Amazing video
