    Well done Callum, Charlie and the team. Certainly followed the message of getting the best you can from yourself on the day. Really appreciate how you talk about aspects that are rarely mentioned eg relationships with others on the day, making self accountable and mindset. Can so often point athletes in the direction of your videos - unless try you will never know 💪

      Thanks mate! As mentioned in the video, your perspective changes quickly as you improve -- and it's important to take stock and look at the bigger picture. I love having these videos to do that!

  • @Rich_Mitch_Creative
    @Rich_Mitch_Creative Před 3 měsíci

    Another fantastic episode, great to see. Could I ask a real noob question, but I've never run on an indoor track (they feel a bit like hens teeth here in the UK) but how does the surface differ to an outdoor track? (banked bends aside obvs). Cheers, all the best for the rest of the season.

    • @the.distanceproject
      @the.distanceproject  Před 3 měsíci +1

      Pretty much the same! It depends on which track specifically as they are all laid differently… some harder than others. The main difference to outdoor is what happens “under” the track - I.e. how it’s frame supported. This is what provides more/less bounce 👍🏼

    Hi Callum
    This has nothing to do with the video, but how often and when do you incorporate strength training/stability exercises into your weekly training?

    • @the.distanceproject

      2x per week during regular training, 1x per week during racing

    Hi Callum, you were talking about your running style and that you run a bit on the outside of your foot. I also run like that a bit, so I was wondering what spikes you used to wear, before you signed with HOKA? That way I can maybe get some nice spikes aswell

    • @the.distanceproject
      @the.distanceproject  Před 3 měsíci

      Nike Dragonfly, but no different to these spikes. Both great 👍🏼

  • @johnwhitesides566
    @johnwhitesides566 Před 3 měsíci

    Congratulations from an old American (grew up in the days of Jim Ryun and Kip Keino, then Coe, Ovett, and Cram). You described the Cielo FlyX as "soft" and indicated they might be best for 3k/5k. How do you feel about them after the race? I'm considering getting a pair for masters races (5k - 10k). How would you compare them to Dragonfly's if you had to micro-analyze a difference?

    • @the.distanceproject
      @the.distanceproject  Před 3 měsíci

      I think they’re great, just as good as dragonfly. Very comfortable and by “soft” this is what I mean 👍🏼

    • @johnwhitesides566
