You probably dont give a shit but if you are bored like me during the covid times you can stream all the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. I've been streaming with my gf lately xD
I’m in middle school and I’m trying to run the 800m but to make the track team you need a 3 min 800 and I have 3:13 I’m still working for next season track team your videos are so motivating for me to keep pushing and not to give up
This is so cool! I love your attitude. I'm a senior in high school and I started doing club track when I was 8 too, and sometimes I worry that I'm going to burn out or something. So seeing a college senior who has been running that long and still loves it, is really cool. I will be cheering for you this track season!!!
It made me happy just watching you talk about your running! You are so humble & are obviously doing what you love. Keep up the hard work & love your videos!
Im happy i came across your channel in a runner and finding running CZcams channels gets me excited and your videos seem very helpful for me as a runner 😄😎💕🏃🏽♀️ also wow YOU really fast 😱😋🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️🏃🏽♀️
Love this style of video! I am a runner myself here in good ole' New Hampshire :) would love to hear more about what you do to keep injuries away and what your mindset is going into races!
I was 5’4 at the start of my 8th grade year. I’m going to be a freshman this year and I am going in at 5’10. I can say for sure that me growing as given me a bunch of knee injuries. Lots of rest for anyone who is dealing with the same thing
Hey! You look familiar... I ran at NXN twice with my team. I'm 24, so we may have raced one another before! I was a long distance track runner, too, so maybe we raced elsewhere, too! That'd be cool! Anyways, I am new to your channel, but really enjoyed getting to know your running journey in this video! Excited to get to be "virtual friends" now lol Keep up the great runs, yummy foods, and fun vlogs! :)
Great video Emma! I'm going into my senior year in highschool and running at the D1 or D2 level is something I'm going to be doing in the near future. Nice to hear your journey and your story with running and I hope you have a amazing senior season at Oregon this year!
Thanks so much Emma. I am a distance runner. Did it in high school and never committed but back at it in my twenties now. After a year of training I ran a half marathon in 1.55. I am freaking out now because I got a knee injury and have been off for close to 6 weeks. How did you cope with injury? Do you lose muscle mass or cardio fitness quickly? I keep telling myself what has been built in hard work for a year will not disappear in 6 weeks, but still freaking out! Let me know what u think
Aoife Lynn Anne Donnan I am just recovering from a knee injury myself. It has been 2 months for me and my coaches are letting me come back in. Before I was allowed to run again, i wanted die!!! I can't not run! I couldn't do any lunging squatting jumping running or put any significant weight on one leg!!! I could hardly do stairs even and they put me in utter agony! I injured both of my knees and i couldnt use crutches because of this so i had to fight everyday for 2 weeks not to limp. I just worked through it, which i never could have done if i didn't still work out my core and arms. It kept me active and off my knee so that it could heal better and now I can do all of the stuff i couldn't before, but not quite as well or without pain yet, but it is getting better and yours will to. Just keep your mind occupied and work through it. Ps no. I was worries about losing muscle too but i didnt loose it. When u come back in it will take a little to get your body back in shape but it happens so much quicker then u would think! I have been back in for a week and my body is already almost responding as well as before to training. Dont worry. (God knows i did)
I’m not very experienced but I’d say so. Swimming is an amazing way for recovery days! My mom did swimming after her marathon workouts in college and never got any major injuries
I am very similar I started to swim when I was 4 and then started running at 8 and I also have many knee problems I am now 13 and I swim for a club and I love swimming but I love running more and I know I am going to have to give up swimming if I want to run more
Love watching your vids I’m hoping to run for Oregon for 2018 season I currently race for west la college in LA had some downs these 2 seasons for cross country but I’m recovering little by little to come back for track 💪🏽pray for me to get scouted 😭😭😂😂😂
im currently running a 6:30 1600 as a sophmore in high school and i just dont know if i have what it takes to compete against girls who are running sub-6's. im thinking about quitting because i mentally struggle with the idea "those girls are better and faster than me, i am going to come in last place and embarass myself and team." i dont want to quit but that anxiety is becoming overwhelming. any tips on what to do???
I’m struggling to get sub 7 minutes haha, I definitely get where you’re coming from. This track season I’m really, really trying to get 6 minutes, I believe in you! I hope you haven’t quit, you have what it takes. I believe in you!!
I ran a 6:28 as a 7th grader, and up until three weeks before I ran that time I could barely break 7:15. My main problem was that I was terrible at pacing and went out way too slow, which is honestly still something I'm working on as a freshman. Although that may not be a problem you have, it's just something to think about. I have no clue what kind of training you do, but if you aren't already I would recommend doing core work a few times a week and focus on making sure that you have good form (the difference between running with bad form and running with good form is huge). Best of luck!
Carlos Mobley my mom has that, I know this is really late. She dealt with the pain for over like a year and a half I believe. She had to go get steroid shots in her feet almost every week , it was a very painful situation. The doctor said Nike’s are a bad shoe to wear if you run or walk a lot apparently so she bought a pair of Asics and her problems started sipping away
Well i swim so i dont see it as much but i do get to see a lot of girls who are ridiculously strong and i think running is similar and thats why i love both swimming and running
10:23 in 3200 Freshman year, you're a legend 🙌🏼🙌🏼
10:33 actually! But thanks! 10:23 came my senior year.
10:33 as a freshman!!! That's incredible
Thank you! Definitely had a solid base of running behind me though!
Can u do a video about ur high school training? Your times were amazing
I will eventually, sure!
Emma Abrahamson please!

Does swimming help running? I always like to swim the day after running to loosen up, even though it uses different muscles.
I’m not very experienced but I’d say so. Swimming is an amazing way for recovery days! My mom did swimming after her marathon workouts in college and never got any major injuries
What was the longest way you ever run? And do you have experiences with shin splints?
I am very similar I started to swim when I was 4 and then started running at 8 and I also have many knee problems
I am now 13 and I swim for a club and I love swimming but I love running more and I know I am going to have to give up swimming if I want to run more
How did you get over your Achilles injuries?! I can't seem to shake mine.
Love watching your vids I’m hoping to run for Oregon for 2018 season I currently race for west la college in LA had some downs these 2 seasons for cross country but I’m recovering little by little to come back for track 💪🏽pray for me to get scouted 😭😭😂😂😂

i dont want to quit but that anxiety is becoming overwhelming. any tips on what to do???
it's all mindset. believe you can do it and you will :)
btw, i had a 6:24 mile and 4 weeks later i ended up with a 5:56 thanks to my supporting team, just trust your coach
I’m struggling to get sub 7 minutes haha, I definitely get where you’re coming from. This track season I’m really, really trying to get 6 minutes, I believe in you! I hope you haven’t quit, you have what it takes. I believe in you!!

Hey how’d your progress go? Did you quit? Hopefully not :)
Keep up the great work
Would you get back with triathlon?
potentially in the future. Right out of college I will probably be taking a substantial break from endurance sports to focus on my career though!
20.27 6K... Jeeesus wow
i have a pain on the inside of my lower legs , everytime i run and put pressure on them they ache helpp
could be a stress reaction. definitely give them some rest!
I love you with all my heart xoxo 💖 😘
I thought divisions depended on the size of your school.
Any tips for dealing with plantar fasciitis, anyone?
Carlos Mobley my mom has that, I know this is really late. She dealt with the pain for over like a year and a half I believe. She had to go get steroid shots in her feet almost every week , it was a very painful situation. The doctor said Nike’s are a bad shoe to wear if you run or walk a lot apparently so she bought a pair of Asics and her problems started sipping away
Wow, I was a swimmer before I became a runner also.
Same
nice video Honeybunch.
Knee problems = growing pains
MissMarisa7Beauty really?
Why is it weird to be sweaty? I think a lot of girls including you look amazing even when sweaty
Haha thank you! Being sweaty is just my lifestyle tbh!
Well i swim so i dont see it as much but i do get to see a lot of girls who are ridiculously strong and i think running is similar and thats why i love both swimming and running
No such thing as junk miles
