My husband got me into running. He was doing ultras and I was into body building. I literally owned a “death before cardio” shirt. Now I’m gearing up for my first Marathon 🤠
🤣🤣🤣
I'm discovering that I'm WAY stronger mentally and physically than I previously thought. I was basically immobile four years ago. Morbidly obese... well, I texted with my partner today. What did you do today? Oh, just a bit of stretching and an easy 5k run. Nothing much. Like, what the heck? It was me who said that?! 🤣💙
Good on you 👍
That's awesome!
Good for you! 😀👍🏼
One of the best things I get out of running is lower anxiety and lessened PTSD symptoms. I’m very thankful for this channel and the inspiration you two are to the sport.
Thanks so much, Dale. And I’m happy that it helps you so much 😊 keep at it 🤟🏼
I run to relieve my depression and anxiety as well! It does wonders!
6 weeks ago is where it all started.
Surfing the web for pain relief stretches in my left knee. I came across your channel and didn't think much of it. Little did I know a seed was planted. Over the next few days, I started looking into running. It began to intrigue me, how someone could purposefully hurt themselves. Then it happened. I laced up my sneakers... I ran. It was ugly; gasping for air, whaling my arms for balance, and dreading the fat accumulated around my waist. Can't remember for how long I ran, but I just kept repeating it. Day after day, I found myself strangely enjoying it. I'm not sure if this channel was the root of all things. But it has been a catalyst. And for this I'm thankful.
Ha ha sorry if I’ve ruined you. It’s a good kind of ruin though 😂
I started running because I quit drinking. It will be one glorious year on August 5th since I had my last drink and the journey has been nothing short of amazing! Running has made me a better person, a happier person, a healthier person and a more spiritual person. I’m all in and truly enjoying my pilgrimage. Thanks for all you do Ben & Mary! I look forward to Wednesday and Sunday for new drops of inspiration!
Congrats on your sobriety friend! So proud of you!
That’s awesome! Happy (belated) one year! 😊
Signed up for my first 5k after 2 decades (63 yrs old). After watching your videos, I just did it! Following your training program, but it’s killing me not to run more. Tomorrow, I get to run again and can’t wait. Holding myself back is painful in order for running to not be painful
Running as the ‘gateway drug of habits’ - love it! I’ve found that accomplishing running challenges has given me such self-belief - after my first marathon I felt I could do anything (although I couldn’t actually walk very easily…) - running is my superpower!
💯 Helen! It is a superpower 😊 great work 💪🏼
One unexpected benefit I've had from running which surprised me a lot was that it made me a more flexible person. As someone who was always very rigid and didn't like change, battling with forced flexibility in running around weather or schedules made me realize I don't have to have everything work exactly according to my plans to have it be worthwhile. Lots of people already had this lesson but running is really what got me there.
Oh yeah, i keep casually dropping that I'm training for a marathon to pretty much anyone who will listen.
This funny, I have kept very quiet about it because I'm afraid I might get taken off on a stretcher😂
Ha ha and keep at it 🤟🏼😂
@@50Something what a good story! I'm more worried I'll get covid a week out from the event.
Making a habit out of running has definitely helped me build other healthy or fun habits.
💯- it’s the platform for all other good habits 😊
I have found the same. I just never want the crappy food or alcohol as much any more and I've picked up additional healthy habits along the way.
Friends/family tells me they want to start running, but they don't have the energy 😊 but the paradox is that Running actually gives more energy alot more.
I used to hate running for many reasons. Some of them are: I couldn't breath properly when running and felt pain in my stomach, and it's just boring as I thought 😂.
But, once I've read a book from David Goggins, I don't know, something clicked in my mind and now I'm into running. 💕.
Thanks for the inspiration you share here guys! Have a fun day!
what book was it?
@@kazooduck
It's called "Can't hurt me" by David Goggins
Goggins is the truth!
I just started running 2 months ago and at 45 did my first 5k race, this channel is one of the channels I got hooked on because my wife and son also run! So thank you for the content you put out
This was a great one! I'm working on a video about the alcohol consumption part because if you drink, even one beer per day, you can't run unless you have it after but I never want a beer after a run so the creation of good habits is a major plus!
So true. I only stopped because even the slightest hangover ruined the enjoyment of my run! Never looked back 🤟🏼😊
So true , if I drink I can’t run that day and the day after , and if I run I don’t feel like drinking anymore so it’s a good habit :)
@@ThisMessyHappy I just finished my video! czcams.com/video/vk2At_s8bL0/video.html
Congrats on your 10 years! Celebrating my third. Didn't start running until I was sober. Can't imagine going back. Running keeps me clean and I wouldn't get the high from running if I had to process all that poison like I used to.
I've been running with passion for 15 years. Of those 15 years I've been injured about 3. I tore a calf muscle 6.5 months ago, came back to early and reinjured it. Running has been taken away from me once again and it's agonizing at times. But, I read one time in a book, "you're not a real runner until you've felt you may never run again." Best of luck to all of you runners! I hope I'm back once again.
I've been running for a year now, but as of two weeks ago I started training for a Ironman Tri, and have been focused on swimming (my weakest point) and biking. I literally just got done with my run now after a week of not doing it and it was the happiest I've been all week 😂 I never realized how much I love it because those days that I push myself too hard running, I hate it more than anything
I am not sure who inspired me. More than 7 years ago my wife and I (we are from Colombia) were living in NJ, US, I was graduate student at Rutgers but our visa situation was horrible. She wasn’t allowed to work and she was done studying after her master degree in France, and she had a huge problem back at her parents home, so she decided to return to Colombia. At this point we have been living in the states for 4 years and I continued. the new reality of my braking marriage and loneliness hit me hard and compromised my phd. So, I started running. I was definitively not in shape. But I started and it improved my physical and mental health and I haven’t stopped since then. My wife and I are now together, I am finishing my studies and a big part of this is due to running I’m sure.
I'm 47 hated running my youngest son started running. He asked me to run a small 2 mile race. So I started to surprise him. Was tough had 3 weeks to train. Did 19 minutes first race. Now I can't stop look forward to my running. Very rewarding seeing my progress is very motivating. You and ur wife have a great channel have helped a lot with my running. Thank you keep up great work love the channel.
This is all so true! I sleep better, think better, feel better mentally😎 I have been told by several people they were inspired by me to run or exercise 🏃🏽♀️ running is the best gift I have myself 😊❤️
My next marathon is in Cape Town and we planned a whole 2 week trip around it. I'm excited as I've never thought to go to South Africa before
Running save my life and change my life forever. Before lockdown 2020 in mid March started I was running 50k trail run and lots of things happened during running. All my friends DNF and I were all alone, got hit and run by a car and survived to continue running despite broken ribs, 4km to FL from phone to all battery runs out and I went low point to gave up. Thanks for training help increase eyes adaptive fast to dark, I can see well and reached Finish Line before sending me to the Hospital for treatment. Now I know that benefits truly helped me to be a better person and I learned better from handling the worst situation.
Thanks Ben, good explanation I learn from you today 👍👍👍
Thanks Alvin. Great story as well. So glad you’re on your running journey 😊
My older brother Troy inspired me to start running. I am 46 & he is 6 years older than me & has been running marathons for years now. . I started out hiking & doing short 2: mile runs with my dog. Now we are trail running between 5 & 10 miles daily. Completely life changing!
My aunt got me into running as a sport. I started running initially to lose weight and just get healthier overall. But watching my aunt compete in a triathlon (she's done a dozen Ironmans) was what inspired me to push a little harder, go a little further. And when I started seeing progress I tried a 5K just for fun, then another and another, then 10Ks, to halfs to marathons. It's helped with my anxiety, helped me be more outgoing overall, and helped me realize I can do a lot of other things like camping by myself, going far off places by myself, taking on career/personal challenges I would've been too scared to even consider 10 years ago.
Greetings I’m new to the channel half marathoner here. Running has been my therapy and I never thought I would say that but it’s true so keep running people. Love the channel 👍🏽
Hey Lisa, welcome to the channel! Thanks so much for the kind words 😊
1. Poorer yer richer
2. You can see the world
3. Enjoy the pain
4. Body function better
5. Far more clarity of thought
6. You are an inspiration
7. Other habbits easier to form
8. Draw your own conclusions... Increased self esteem etc.
I absolutely love this channel! I appreciate that you guys validate the love of running without making people feel lesser for lack of [speedy] performance. I really enjoy running and I run slooooowly. But I'm learning that it's okay to run slowly! Just enjoying the process. 🤗
im glad that at least 4 of my friends started adding recreational activities into their lives, from brisk walking to running, because of them keep on seeing me constantly posting about me running on social media
I'm glad I watch this my age of 70yr after lockdown I can't be bothered starting back training again your lucky you live in a beautiful area I live in Scotland
For me, poorer:had 2 pair of shoes land at my door yesterday. But most significant is that not just knowing but believe “ I CAN ! “ The farthest i had ever run was 2 miles in my teens, Believing I am not a runner/ I don’t have a runners body. Since my 54 birthday last year have run 5k many times. Training for two 10k and a 15k this year. Watch out world “I CAN” because I am a runner.
I’m currently onto week 6 of couch to 5k and can safely say I’m converted. 6-7 weeks ago I couldn’t run around the block and never thought I’d be running the length of time I am doing at the minute. Enjoying every minute of getting out and feeling like I’ve achieved something each day I work out. Sure it’s not easy and your a bit stuff after but I’ve been sticking to it and think I’ll stay with running after this as I’m already feeling the benefits.
Running has given me more than I've put into it (which is a lot)! Part of that is because of the gratitude that I express as a runner (I truly am grateful for all that running has to offer!)... Meaning, I look for and express positive moments and perspectives during my runs and because of running. Running has given me a grater sense of gratitude! Something that I recently shared/came up with was "if comparison is the thief of joy, then gratitude is the catalyst of joy." And while this is applicable to running, it's also applicable to life! Great video Ben and Mary!!!
All great points Ben. As usual, you do a great job explaining some of the benefits. I think the biggest for me is an improvement in self-esteem and the confidence that I can do "hard things". Also it builds goal management -- if I want to achieve something, I need to plan / work for it. Finally I think I have a bit more body awareness and pain tolerance. I agree the running has a bit of a cost impact -- races and shoes aren't cheap. But once you got your shorts and a decent watch, you are good to go. I am a race junkie so that's generally where my money goes -- but it is cheaper than going to the bars every night.
And much better for your waistline and brain
My mindset got so strong ! All my anxiety is gone. I enjoy going to work!! Just happier 😁🤘🏻🤘🏻. Appreciate life a lot more!!
The person who inspired me to start running is a local hero here in West Cumbria I saw an interview with Gary McKee aka the marathon man Gary is running a marathon every day for a whole year in the aid of charity. I remember Gary saying on GB NEWS it's on 4 hours a day running that stick with me and my running journey started due to his words.
I love your philosophy guys. Engage in life.
Thanks Nick! Absolutely 🤟🏼😊
To messy happy hello☺️
My name is nadav i am form Israel. i am a gym instructor and a yoga teacher. English is not my native language so I want to to apologize in advance for any silly grammar mistake😊
i really wanted to take the time and write down to you how much i appreciate your Chanel! You are doing a fantastic job! I believe we are about the same group age (40) and i can see your mature and refined approach about training and life and is the same approach i try to pass on to my students
Your good advice and knowledge really help me on my running journey.
And I wish i could contribute to you in my area of expertise the way you contribute to me.
I wish you all the best thank you very much guys 👍🙋
Well.... I've run abroad and heading to New York just to run. I have also quit alchohol and can relate to all of your points ❤️✌️🏴
As always I love your videos, but it was a brilliant surprise to see you both run past ClubMed Nusa Dua (Bali). We have been there a couple of times and its a wonderful place.
Loved it !! Bravo Messy Happy !!!
Calling your digestion more efficient and streamlined is one way of saying it, nearly $h1ting yourself mid run is another.
I guess it’s an art to know how much to eat before the race. I guess it’s really annoying when having to stop for this or not drinking enough water to avoid such issues.
I am a brand new runner. Completed a few 5k parkruns. My inspo is Tete Dijana!! He won the 2022 Comrades Marathon with a time of 05:30:35. His look of joy at the finish was just amazing!!
G'day from Australia, as a young person I hated running. Now in my middle age I love it. I will be running my first half marathon in October and I can't wait for it!
Thanks for all the positivety and awesome knowledge and the love of running. You guys definitely inspire me to keep going ❤️🙏❤️
So good to hear about the benefits that isn’t obvious. I find the head space and thinking about things while running most helpful. Also like the fact you are doing it together with you partner 👍🏻
To sort of expand on point no.2:
I've found that your experience of a place is so much more visceral when running. I love to run in a new environment, when on holidays for example, and I find that by running (exercising) as I move through the place, I feel more like a part of it, more aware, more a part of the nature I suppose you could say. Far far moreso than if I had a stroll through the place with a cup of coffee in hand.
There's something about not just being outdoors, but PUSHING yourself while outdoors, that has a multiplication effect on the value you get from being there.
Hope that's not too abstract - great video!
Great video. I have gone through all of these over the last 10 months of getting into running. It has honestly been a blessing!
Love the channel!
The best thing I've gotten is obviously being in better overall shape.
I went in for a colonoscopy, they were taking my vitals. Nurse looked at my heart rate, readjusted her gadgets on me. She couldn't believe that my H.R. was as low as it was!
She actually came out and said, you must be athletic. Your heart rate is lower than most that come thru here.
I just had the biggest grin!
I've NEVER been called 'athletic'
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! Keep em coming please! 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
I leave on most of my weekday runs from work, and because my coworkers see me head out in my running gear, I've found that my boss also consistently runs. Now he'll strike up a conversation just to talk about how his run went the other day. These are work goals I didn't know I had 😂
Point #5 is the #1 reason i got into running! I wasn't very articulate before i started running but it massively increased my ability not to stumble on words ! Super awesome confidence booster :) Hope this channel blows up!!!!
I only run for pleasure. I know my body and respect it. How many runners add stressful runs to an already stressful life ? How many runners take dangerous supplements to increase their performance ? How many runners become dependent on results and get depressed when they don't achieve them ? How many runners end in hospital during these mass running events because they don't care about their bodies ? Why do running events have to become more and more extreme ? And why do we never see tons of runners vomiting/shaking/cramping/convulsing during those events ?
I’ve been a on and off runner for the past 5 years or so, currently training for the jungfrau marathon (my first ever marathon) in Switzerland early September with 6000’ of climbing
Motivation to run is low but your videos always get me lacing up
Thank you guys!
i love point 2. i drove across the united states from tennesse to oregon to run my first half marathon (and camp)..by myself. so much fun! i learned alot about myself
I agree with many of the points. My change was one day just going out a little over a year ago, walking in and joining a gym, and then going 2, 3 up to 6 days a week. I decided I was a 'runner' even though I looked 'ok' I had terrible conditioning, bad wonky uneven hips, that made anything more than a fast walk excruciatingly painful after about 30 seconds. I still persisted, did what I could to get aerobically and build my strength and flexibility. Read, Read, Read, watch many youtbe videos on literally EVERYTHING to do with running, health, fitness, fixing my still wonky, but less wonky hips. I am technically a 'runner' now, but I still believe you are a 'runner' when you make the true committment to it, and say you will persist and keep going. I am up to 17 kms non stop, slow easy pace, no pain afterwards. I think anyone in doubt of starting, should just start 'something' even if like me they can't run to begin with. Just start with what you can and persist!
I love, love your channel! So inspirational.
The needing to eat more and sleep better were the ones that I had to pay more attention to when I really started to run on a regular basis. I don't normally need to eat a lot but when I started to aim for longer distances I became soooo important that I eat and hydrate properly. I was a big beer drinker before too. Now I find myself skipping out drinking with my friends way more often because I wanna be better runner.
I love you both! I'm an American livinig with my Malaysia wife and daughter just south of you. I would love to run some races in Thailand, I'm racing in Malaysia but not as well as you both! I totally agree with the points you make in this video. Cheers Mate!
Thanks Bryan! So you know the battle of running in the extreme heat 😂 certainly took some getting used to 🤟🏼 thanks for the kind words 😊
@@ThisMessyHappy Actually, I feel very acclimated to the temps, but I did not cross train enough and I went out on my FM at 4:30 (my expected pace) but the elevation was 458 meters and the hills were very steep, at 22k my quads and abductors began cramping and that was it...I finished but with my worst time ever. I know what I have to do. I have a HM in September and Singapore full in December. If you are both ever down this way, my wife and I would love to host you.
Nick Bare has been an inspiration for me. What a 🐐
Alex Yee and Eliud Kipchoge inspired me when I watched them in the Tokyo Olympics last year. Never heard of them before. I then took up running. I've never run before. Today I achieved my PB. 5K in under 27 minutes. Anything happened in the bedroom? Well, I do sleep much better, nothing much else. I'm almost 70. :-)
I was never a sporty person started going to the gym 7 years ago at the age of 41 and doing walking on the threadmill just to clear my mind , thoughts and life as i was going through a lot then quite by accident ended up running. I was barely able to run 1km on this big stadium and slowly bought it upto 5km and was feeling like im on the top of the world (now that i can run 5km) then the transformation started to happen you get more clearer in your mind, you get more self esteem, able to be proactive to life problems instead of being reactive.
Along with that came the confidence to increase the running distance ended up going from 5k to 21k in about a year. Did my first FM in 2019 took me 4hours and 40 minutes (flat land) learned a lot from that.
Post covid did my first FM in 2022 and did it in 4hours and 18 minutes (hilly terrain) nowadays train 4 runs per week and clock in around 300km per month. I work more, manage 2 businesses, life is more organised and always makes the time to do the early morning run.
Brilliant advice. Great words. So inspiring. Thank you both. Keep at it. 👍👍🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🌲🏃♀️
Sounds very much like running has been an atomic habit for you. I feel like it's being for me as well, it's one that I'm very motivated to pursue and it's making habit changes in the rest of my life!
Another great video guys. I was only saying to two fellow runners last Saturday that since I started running seriously, in 2017, I haven't had a migraine, not one. Is it connected? Possibly, they were caused by irregular sleep patterns and you mentioned better sleeping in your video so kinda fits.
Nick bares videos inspired me to start running 🤘
I've always planned holidays around of what I like so I've done that from the beginning of my running journey... not freaky ;)
I’ve been running seriously for four years now and I’m gonna be real, I don’t “love” being sore anymore lol. It was nice for a bit, but as the years went on it became something I try to avoid.
The long run twinges are especially applicable to me today. 20 km and 1000 m of gain on interesting trails - yay.
Excellent video and love the bedroom bit 🤣🤣🤣 so agree it’s true 😀😀
Ha ha had to get it in there without being crude 😂
Great video, exactly what I’ve been experiencing!
The freo dockers top 2:17 in 💪 🔥
I will say for the first remark, you do spend however, your life will dramatically extend longer thus more income! Compound interest works in favor
Beautiful video and so true ❤️ I don't really want to think too much about the money (I have probably spent close to £30k in 7 years on running - kit, race entries, travel and my running journeys). The things that I have seen and experienced, the people that I have met and others that I have helped have made me an immeasurably stronger and better person.
I honestly don't know if I would even be here if it wasn't for my own running experience, I have also met and been inspired by so many people along the way and have some good running friends around the world. Have you read the book 'Outrunning the Demons' by Phil Hewitt which is a collection of stories from runners with some remarkable life experiences?
yeah when they were talking cost I was thinking they'd mention race entries... those can add up. totally worth it though, especially if you need goals to motivate you (to some extent, we probably all benefit from goals).
Haven't read that book - maybe I'll check it out. I just read "Have fun out there. Or not." collection of essays by Brendan Leonard.
I lost 75 lbs from between the ages of 48 to 51 (I’m currently 52) when I stopped believing that weight gain and aches and pains were inevitable because of age. I tracked my calories and protein, did cardio on the elliptical and lifted a lot of weights. But I still believed that I couldn’t run because of age and knee pain. I made this comment to a running co-worker who convinced me to give it a try under her coaching. I am 8 weeks into a 12 week base building program, with several adjustments to form and cadence. I am pain free and my knees are better now than before I began running. I have officially re-claimed another part of my life from the lie of being “too old”.
#2 so so true!!😂👍it just feels so good!
Those eight, I certainly agree.
Add one more: Runner's Endorphin high. That's always a good day.
I started running early '22 bc I have always hated it, simple as that. One ought to do what one hates to better (to grow, they say) oneself. It's August and I'm still at it...imo I find it helps my mental state, and aerobic endurance best. Secondaryly, I find my metabolism and sleep improved. After six months, I tend to run 3-5 days a week and between 24-30k. I might add some speed work soon...but generally, Im fine with my fitness and have no ambitious running goals. My loftiest goal is to run a 10miler or a half in decent time perhaps, imo not very ambitious. Anyhow, I already reached my original intentions -- bc I hated running and gained aerobic endurance --
4/5 miles a run sounds right to my body, with occasional 8/10...
Running therapy,is great,run run run,🙏❤️
I love you guys' positivity!!! Cheers!@!!
Last one is def true. The entire body works better.
what you doing
Nice video. suggested by the algorithm so good luck with the video perf. New sub.
Running is life 😊
Hahahaha I did not expect the last one :D Good one!
My best friend re inspired me to start running again January 1st. I signed up for every 5 k i could find. Lost 25-30 lbs and i feel so much better about myself. Now i'm signing up for 10 k and hopefully a half marathon soon.
Best is the ability to catch the bus when I’m running late
Another great video. Still waiting for #4 though 😋 I have bad sleep problems since I‘ve had Covid and I have to count every calorie because just looking at food will make me fat 😕 also morning runs are just a nono for me tried it for some time and failed. I run bester after a hard day that completely drained my brain but left the body untouched. But I have inspired my SO to join me on my easy runs and I use those days to train her running. She already made huge advancements in just a couple of weeks and really likes it 🙂
"What do you think, will happen in your bedroom?"
We will have better sleep, you already had that covered before.
Please come to New Zealand for a race 🥰
Oh my god I would love that. I’ve been to NZ 3 times and it’s my favourite country in the world!! What’s the most iconic race? I’ll try to do that!! 😊
@@ThisMessyHappy “Race The Train” , 14,15 January 2023, in Otago, the beautiful South Island , there’s a few around that time, I’m sure the Auckland harbour bridge is the most popular, but the South Island is the most beautiful
Thanks both of you! Any videos I can watch about carrying on running when the body wants you to stop? I’m finding while out running after few km I stop walk catch my breath then go again. It’s becoming a habit
As an ex footballer, I have the tendency to do the same and it's not a bad thing to do because it lowers your heart rate and probability of injury. Reduce your speed, keep your heartbeat less than 150 and do muscle strengthening and you'll find you can run for an hour easily.
I need running for my mental health
Es gracioso este tío. Y tiene razón. Yo tengo una filosofía similar: me quejo de todo, incluso de las cosas que me gustan. Y por supuesto, correr es de las que más me quejo y más me gustan.
Just curious, was the austria triathlon in podersdorf? :D
No it was in Walchsee 😊
Planning to join Bali Marathon end of this month? I see you are somewhere in Nusa Due....Greetings from Jakarta
The amazing pancake race! 😂👌
Ha ha guess what you get after the race?! 😂
I got my niece to start at least walking. She did her first 5k. I think she wants to run but is self conscious thinking people will watch her.
Number 9: you never stop talking about being a runner haha
Pain is bad. Discomfort is ok. Don't think we should be advertising that pain is a good thing.
Depends on what you classify as pain I guess 😉
What are your thoughts on Music when running?
It’s a difficult one. I used to but I found it took me out of the moment so I prefer to run with just my thoughts nowadays (quite scary in itself 😂). Each to their own but it doesn’t work for me 😊
What do you think is gonna happen in the bedroom?
"Sorry honey, they said to add 1 minute of sleep per night per mile you are running per week, so.....goodnight!"
Ha ha pretty much 😂
Laughed at this comment.....🤣😂 I let the wife know what my rest days are 👌
@@nickyscott383 😂
You will have a lot more stamina and not get out of breath.
