  • In this video, I run the 2023 LA Marathon. I got into this race 3 days before the race kicked off, so it was very last second. I spent a total of 36 hours in LA for this trip and I loved every second of it. The energy in LA is unreal on race day and I would recommend it to anyone.

    • @FinnyFinnFinn96
      @FinnyFinnFinn96 Před rokem

      Could be sciatica, but no way of knowing for sure without more info. Personally I’d see a physical therapist for diagnosis, some do free consultations and they’ll have more context and give better advice than strangers on the internet. In the meantime, it can’t hurt to do some yoga and strengthening exercises. SAM routines from Dr Jay Johnson are good for hitting all those spots we runners neglect.

    • @patrickcadiz6865
      @patrickcadiz6865 Před rokem +1

      that used to happen to me, it was just a lack of endurance thing. Do some lower back strength training, and foam roll it. Keep running and it'll get stronger.

    I don't get it you train hard and you go yolo on races, are you afraid of the failure? How is possible not caring about time when you train all day? I am not hating just curious I am doing 1/10 of your train sessions and I am super competitive even 1 sec plays a role for me.
