    A full week of training for my ultramarathon which is getting scarily close! I’m back to running a little more regularly now, though I’m still cycling in the gym too to protect my ankle in the final stages of recovery. The gym workout in this video is a good example of the types of core and leg strengthening I’ve been doing so feel free to take them and try them! This week I also helped announce a new scientific research program (slightly terrifying, insanely exciting) into female runners and took a couple of fitness tests to help me manage my race as best I can! Love you!
    The gym I visited in Vancouver is called HouseConcepts! I paid for my membership ofc, I just like to shoutout great work (: I recommend!

    I'm morbidly obese and I watch Natacha for the science and motivation. I have tried her recipes, workouts, the abundance idea (meals with high volume but low calorie) and I started going out for walks nearly everyday....in two months, I'm down 16 inches mostly from my waist and 25 lbs. This woman knows what she is doing! Once I'm leaner or when I plateau I plan to try her Cut program. PS Her lime, maple syrup water is great. I suggest putting the limes in the water overnight to boost the flavor (lemons work too)!

    Dear Natacha,
    I wanted to take a moment to express my deep admiration for you as a person and for your unwavering dedication to pushing women-based research in sport and health. It is truly inspiring to see someone like you fighting for equal representation and shedding light on the significant gap in studies conducted on men versus women, with only 6% focusing on the latter.
    Your commitment to this cause is commendable, and it gives hope to many individuals who have long felt overlooked and underrepresented. I am grateful for the positive impact you have made on my own mental health. Whenever I find myself feeling defeated or spiraling into negative thinking patterns, I turn to your content, and it never fails to uplift me and make me feel better.
    I want to specifically thank you for being a tremendous source of inspiration in my journey towards overcoming anorexia. Your strength and resilience have helped me shift my mindset from a place of sickness to one of fitness. You gave me hope when I needed it most and taught me to trust in the process of healing and self-improvement.
    Your work and your message have had a profound impact on my life, and I will forever be grateful for the role you played in my recovery. Please continue to be the beacon of light and motivation that so many of us look up to. Your voice and advocacy are making a significant difference, and I hope you realize just how much of a positive influence you are in the lives of countless individuals.
    Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
    Sincerely, Skylar

      Skylar 🤍 hello my friend (: what an incredible soul and personality you have. I want to start with your recovery and to tell you how proud of you I am, because you should know that without a shadow of a doubt. Healing and believing in yourself enough to go through the messy, heavy journey is a big thing. Even just believing it's possible is a testament to you: not everybody does.
      Fitness and self-improvement from a place of exploration and love are just some of the best gifts on the planet and I'm beyond happy that you've found them. You've done an incredible, inspiring thing for yourself and I know you're on the way to growing into the natural next step and the most fulfilling part: contributing to something bigger than yourself and helping other people through tough times that life dealt them through no fault of their own.
      You have so much to contribute and bring to the world now. So much talent and perspective on how tough things can be! I hope you live that life to it's fullest!! So much love 🤍

Hearing that you see potential in me to contribute and make a difference in the world by supporting others who face similar challenges fills me with a greater sense of purpose and the motivation to continue growing and evolving.

    Dear Natacha, it's easy to think, not to write a nice comment, because there are so many people saying similar-ish things. But on the other hand I know, what feedback means so I just wanted to let you know, what a huge inspiration and motivation you are for me.
    A couple of weeks I started watching your videos, watched probably a couple hundreds and I enjoyed every single minute of it - even the science, which isn't so much my thing 😅
    I feel its hard finding people on social media, who share so authentically and honestly, with so much passion and joy what they stand for, as you do. You inspired me, to sign up for my first half marathon, setting myself a goal that I never thought I could or would want to reach, since I thought all of my life, that I'm not a runner and not even a sports person at all.
    I implemented quiet a few tipps from your running videos in my training and I feel they've been the most helpful out of all the things I've watched.
    I'm totally rooting for your own 100 miles journey, I'm sure you'll smash it and I wish you all the best for it!

I hope you keep that close and remember it any time you ever tell yourself you can't do something elsewhere in life. For me, that's what fitness is for (: I am so proud of you and never would have doubted you for a second: you would have faced very strong resistance if you ever told me you're not a runner 😂
      I hope you just go out and have fun. Whether you finish or not, whether your time is what you wanted or not, all that matters is that you had fun and believed in yourself!! 👏 Thank you for everything and for your support. I'll be thinking of it on my run!

    It’s so awesome to watch your training videos! After years of watching your videos, I’ve finally decided to start running. I’ve always strength trained and I love it but running has been so fun in terms of learning how to appreciate it and it’s fun to be novice at something again. Your videos help tremendously ❤️❤️

    Hi Natacha, I just wanted to say thank you for all you do. You’re my biggest inspiration and have helped me believe in myself so much more since I started my fitness and running journey. I always considered myself someone who couldn’t run and didn’t like to run but thanks to your videos I recently was able to run 1.75 mile which doesn’t seem like a lot but for some one who could barely run for 2 minutes straight this is a huge accomplishment. I’m hoping to continue and work my way up to running a 5k by the end of the year. I’m also grateful for the fact that you’re spreading awareness for endometriosis, last last month I found out that I have it and it’s been really painful and stressful. Anyway you’re an amazing role model and I hope you know what an inspiration you are❤️

    wow i am so inspired yet again. I absolutely love that mindset of pushing the boundaries of what you believe is possible for yourself. I always had very low self-esteem yet little by little i was expanding what i thought i could do and it helped me massively to override that crippling self-doubt. I am dreaming of running an ultra-marathon one day and watching your videos make me very hyped about it!! I hope you will release a new training plan that combines both, gym work and running preparation! I have done both, build and cut training plan, and it really helped me feeling my best (so far!). Thank you for having created this place of positivity and growth :)

    I think this is so so cool because i’ve been watching you for a really long time and i’ve known about camille for a long time and you guys are meeting up! My mom runs ultra marathons and she has met camille a few times and i’ve met her once and watched her race and she smiles the whole time. My mom is currently running across the country (Mexico to Canada) and it’s cool how the ultra running community meets up like for example a bunch of people online have reached out to her to run with her along the way so she’s not alone!

  • @Kelly_Ben
    @Kelly_Ben Před rokem

    Another AMAZING video!! You hit on some of the reasons I love ultras... it's possibly the only sport where women can compete equally with men, often in the top 10 or even winning outright. Many top performers are in their 30s and 40s. It's fun to get out and explore, like being a kid again. And while you'll rarely ever see people training for a marathon stop to smell flowers, admire views, or chat with a stranger, these things are completely normal in the ultra world! It's such a serious challenge that we work hard for, but we don't take it so seriously as to strip away the enjoyment. Camille Herron is incredible, and gives such motivation to those of us "average" ladies who still want to consider ourselves athletes in our 40s and beyond. And carbs, of course... it was great to hear the physio talking about the importance of carbs in training/ performance. I think they made a great choice in presenters... you truly represent women in such a wonderful way, with strength, beauty, determination, and intelligence. Well done in your presentation. Fingers crossed you beat your brother's numbers, and everything crossed that you go ahead with the 100!! Glad the bears didn't ambush you! 😂

    • @natachaoceane
      @natachaoceane  Před rokem +7

      hey Megan! oh I hear you, it's quite a common thing people tell me they struggle with quite often. If I could tell you one thing to help, it's that progress and change come from the quality of your movement and not from the volume. Resting and eating unlock quality, and without them you'd be pumping out quantity that isn't valuable to creating the adaptations you want. I believe in you, every little small challenge against that guilt is a huge step and you will be free of it 🤍
