Eric is literally stacking bricks on this training block lol
🤘
Eric has got to build something with those bricks when done!! Get those kids to help you build .
The production value on these is just nuts.
Appreciate that :)
My new favorite channel! Although your speeds are WAY faster than mine your journey is so relatable and such a joy to watch. Thank you for everything you do and the effort in making your content so stellar. The time and effort is not going unnoticed!😊
Best production of any running content creator out there. Feel like it’s a matter of time before you blow up!
Really appreciate that. Thanks so much!!
Hey Eric, I just want to thank you so much for all the content!
After having a BQ run it my scopes the last 3 years, I just ran 2:53 in Mesa over the weekend. (got emotional just typing that sentence lol) I shaped a lot of my training around your previous builds which helped me a ton. I really appreciate all the transperency and work you've put in through this channel its been a gamechanger to my fitness and lifestyle.
If I do make the cut on time. I would love to join a shakeout run if you have one to meet the community. Keep it up man, much love 🤙
Wow. This is so surreal to hear. Thanks for sharing & CONGRATS!! What an achievement. So happy I could be a part of helping, but you put in the work & got that time. Would love to see you in Boston!!
Would you recommend Mesa?
I personally loved it. Its a extremely fast course. Kind of feels like a cheat code tbh@@briantrinque5513
I mean this in the absolutely best way possible. These vlogs almost have a little retro of earlier days of CZcams vlogs. Just feels so clean and classic and so good. Obviously production quality is insane, but the vibe is so nice.
Aw, that means so much. Thank you!! If I can keep channeling my inner Casey Neistat, I'll be super happy :)
I like your ideas of stacking bricks , its reflect how hard to go through training. Best of luck for traning and your goal Bos sub 2:35
Thank you!!
Your content is always inspiring and so apart from a lot of people. Definitely the filmmaker in you making the running content the best!! Loving this new series!
Appreciate you, Javi!!
Great video Eric. I'm also pushing for a 2:35-2:30 marathon in April, so really enjoying going through the journey whilst watching you :)
Thanks for following along!!
when our guy chokes up re his supporters-we love you man!!
Eric, this episode was so awesome! Production is getting better every single episode!! And about the 'it's wild how many strangers said hi' - remember that those strangers are sometimes just friends you haven't met yet!
Big things are coming for you and Clark, and I'm so excited for both of you!! Go One More
Panic Attack in a Michael's is one of my new favorite songs. Floberg not only delivers incredible running content and motivation but also turns you on to new music. Unreal
Keep going Erik it’s very encouraging for me just to wake up in the morning here in WA to watch your video before my training! Boston 2024 💪💪💪
Thanks for watching!!
My new favorite running cahnnel right there. These videos are pure bliss. So smart, so enjoyable, so inspirational...
Great video! I thought you were building something with the kids and was good to see the ending. I might try the same with lego blocks, more space friendly 🙂
Another great one! I've told my wife how this Floberg guy on CZcams is one of my favs and he makes some great stuff - every time I watch his stuff, I want to go out for a run. Finally, I showed her one of your videos last week, and she was so impressed with your videography! Be about it!
Amazing. Thanks so much for those kind words!!
Very inspirational. You keep me showing up!
Eric, you’re are absolutely killing it my guy. We all will be there when the Boston comes around. 👏🏽🙌🏽
Ahh thank you so much!!
Great job on your progress Eric. Right on target. I cannot emphasize enough about the Newton Hills. They come at a tough part of Boston. Keep working incline on your treadmill late during your runs. That is the real tough part of Boston. It would be cool if you hit 1:15 at the half because of those hills. I ran Boston twice and have some experience with the Newton Hills.
Got my marathon in LA in a month after nearly a 10 year marathon hiatus (KC 2014 3:08). You are definitely an inspiration to keep grinding even when the long runs feel awfully long
Ahh thank you so much!!
Lookin really smooth. Love that first workout of a training block. There's so much enthusiasm in your legs to kick ass.
Also, you should start a Discord where runners can connect to run long runs together.
Man that into song is so perfect for this series. Immediately sets the tone for these videos, excellent choice my guy 🤙🏼
Appreciate that feedback. Felt like the right choice to have an anthem for the series :)
Thx for bringing us along on this journey! The production value is top notch! I assume it’s quite expensive to make these videos?
Keep it up Eric, your videos are top notch! That intro sound is wild too, sooooo good!
Thank you!!!
One of the best routes in Chicago, have put so many miles on that path. Keep it up!
The best!! Thank you!!
Made me nostalgic seeing the lake path - ran along there in October when I was over for the marathon ❤ Training looks like it’s going well 💪💪 Good luck 😊😊
It's the best!! Thanks so much!
Brick by brick. 🙌🏼
Following this build! You mentioned tendinitis/tendinopathy. I’m dealing with this myself rn. Any guidance?
Feels good to see you run the same routes I run when I in the city.
Best city in the world!! Can't wait to see you crush an ultra!!
I got so pumped up watching ur videos especially this year bc doing my first Boston - was fighting at CIM for my very first sub3 now going for 2:55 then Chicago to break 2:50 - I feel like the workout you use to do a year ago I am doing them now at age 45 4th marathon I will break 2:45 one day 🖤🏁
Amazing!! Go get it this year!!
@@flobergruns hope to see you in Boston it’s my city would love to show you around even tho I live in CA these days .
As to why you get attention from random people. People love a good, decent and humble person and want him to suceed. Following you on your way. Best of luck.
Really appreciate that perspective. Thanks for the kind words!
I look forward to Floberg Runs videos more than any other on YT 🔥
That seriously means so much. Thank you!!
loving every single episode of your journey! giving you all my support and love from Singapore 🇸🇬!
Thank you so much!!!
Love these kind of training block video bro...keep it up!!👍🏽💪🏽
Thank you!!
The Lord Farquaad jump cut was absolutely amazing!
Huge kudos for duplicating the distance and the tempo in kms! 🙌
Got to! American measuring is stupid hahaha
@@flobergruns haha, not stupid, just beyond comprehension for us in Europe. 😅
LETS GO. Love to see a new ep. I recently got fitted for some insoles that help with my medial collapse on my strides and I think it’s removing my shin splits. (Paired with strength training and stretching) stoked to get back into my half block. Thanks for the motivation Eric!
Let's go!! Get after it!!
Let's go!!! So stoked to cheer for you on the course in April dude!
Thanks for the support!!
Stacking the bricks goes hard. Incredible content as always brother
Thanks so much!!
Loving the series.. Such an inspiration
Thanks for watching!!
Love all the marathon playlists! Keeps me motivated to train. What pants were those on the LR?
Thanks for watching! I believe those are from Path Projects!
This will be the 20th Anniversary of my first Boston when I trained and aimed for a sub 3. Race day came and the weather had another plan for me as it was 86F degrees that Patriot's Day :( Good luck
Woah! Really hope it's cooler this year haha
Same race, same goal time… throw in some Tendonitis mgmt as well. Love the content man. See you in Boston 🇺🇸
Amazing!! I'll see you there!!
The cut to Home Depot after "Dad" 🧑🍳💋
:)
Babe, wake up, new Floberg video dropped
Outrageous content. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!!
It sounds like you had a good week of training. Bricks! what a great idea.
Awesome week! Stoked to keep building :)
Finally, on the video! Floberg woooooh!
Was that you on the path??
Yes! Great job out there man, cant wait to watch your vid smashing your goal!! 💯🔥
Doing the same but for Chicago 2024: just done 2.38 at Berlin. Let’s go sub 2.35 mission
Let's goo!!! I'll be at Chicago for sure!
Badass bro keep up the good work
Thanks so much!!
Love your videos they look so great (Like a movie)
Thanks so much!!
What are you doing for your tendinitis? I’m currently recovering from it but I’m afraid it will come back once I pick up running again.
So inspiring!! I love your videos. Were you always a runner like in high school or college? :)
Thanks for watching! I actually never ran in high school or college formally - just occasional runs here and there. I was in track & cross country in 7th & 8th grade though
Love the bricks! 🧱
That hair is putting the flow on floberg
😏
Isso aí, de tijolo em tijolo você constrói um castelo!
cant help but route for this guy!
Much love!!
any reason you use a soft flask vs a hand held running water bottle (e.g. a Nathan one)?
I see a Floberg video - i click
I see a comment on Floberg video, I respond.
I think this guy is about it.
Omg shout out to your child for the meme reference 😂😂
hahaha - so happy I've showed them the all time greats
did your son dirty 7:02, clip had no business being that long 🤣
Oh no - he was quoting that video hahahaha
Hey Eric, I am from South Africa and it is awesome that I get to “catch-up” with how your training is going.
Also don’t cut your hair lol
Stoked that you're able to follow along :) - and I'm so sorry, but it has to go soon hahaha
You deserve all the recognition. You're such a role model and great advocate for the sport. Thanks for making me want to push myself and get better everyday 🫡
another amazing video! You should have raced those college kids :)
hahahaha too scared
is your weight lower then when you ran your first couple marathons?
Which heart rate monitor is that at on ur arm? How do you like it? Not a fan of the chest straps. Love your content btw parents recently moved to Chicago super cool running where I always see u run on these videos
It's the Coros heart rate arm band. Been loving it!! Super comfy
He is using the Coros Optical Arm heart rate sensor. I have the Polar optical arm heart rate sensor and I love it. I wasn't a fan of the chest strap since it was uncomfortable but I don't even feel the arm band and it's just as accurate
@@TimNguyen825thanks man!
What is your shoe rotation?
7:00 best part 😂
lol - my favorite part for sure haha
I’m curious, isn’t Boston a hilly course. How are you preparing for it?
That one overpass 4 miles from my house over the highway
Omw to the bandit website 🤣
frfr
How do u drink so little water for such a long run(Day 1, 16 km)?
I'm usually hyrdrated well enough to not need any fluids for anything 13 miles (21km) or less - but I've been carrying a soft flask on almost every run this block so far!
Soft flasks are so in
*said in Mean Girls voice*
💚
does anyone know the song title of the opener & closer?
panic attack in a michael's by Timothy Edward Carpenter :)
@@flobergruns thank you! the melody has been stuck in my head since the start of the series 😂 best of luck in boston!
I always say lactate threshold is an effort not a pace. Our bodies don’t have a built in speedometer or GPS. It doesn’t know what pace we’re running per mile. All it knows is effort and duration. So nailing down what that HR is can be a bit more telling of effort rather than pace 🤷🏼♀️ just my two cents
His watch would have given him a pace and a HR that is his lactate threshold most likely (mine does). I think it's just easiest for him to convey to us as a pace. He definitely ran it to effort as into the headwind and slight incline he ran slower than what his watch said was LT pace and then with the tailwind he ran faster.
Yup, what hunter said. Ran it to feel mostly. Didn't care about pace much at all.
Hey bro, I was thinking Jeff would prescribe you LT times. No?
This early on, I don't believe it's super necessary. These workouts seem to be just getting my legs moving again pairing with increasing volume. I have my first real workout today of 10x800 & he did subscribe a 2:40-2:45 on those. :)
BTW, I’ve heard WD40 is bad for treadmills
Should have got that WD40 while you were at Home Depot!
hahahaha
WD-40 is a cleaner. You need lubricant. WD-40 is just going to clean off what little lubricant remains.
good to know! Thank you!!
I can’t understand how you can find time to run close to a hour almost every day.
Usually getting up at 4:30-5:00 does the trick.
Eric, love your content! But, I'm going to be the jerk who calls you out for having your camera person riding a motorized bike thing on the lakefront path (and on the pedestrian sections in some parts). Not respectful for the other pedestrians/ riders.
I am a simple guy, I see Eric, I click
My man
Keep smashing it man, follow you on instagram also and love seeing all the content. Youre inspiring! Also love the stacking bricks idea
Thanks so much!!
🦾🦾
Whats wrong with looking like farquad? he is the epitome of male attractiveness
hahahahahaha
first view!
My new favorite channel! Although your speeds are WAY faster than mine your journey is so relatable and such a joy to watch. Thank you for everything you do and the effort in making your content so stellar. The time and effort is not going unnoticed!
Aw man, Jason, thanks so much!!
