Great performance in the video dog, keep up the good work!!!
Thanks so much for the collab Zach!! Can't wait to watch you CRUSH IT at CIM.

Non runners simply cannot realize how insanely fast a 2`53"/km pace is, let alone this pace during a whole marathon. You must run to apreciate the beauty of Kipchoge's achievement.
Yup. My best pace for 1k is like 6:05 /km and it feel so fast for me. I cant even imagine running that pace in marathorn.
@@velaxibaldy932 my 10k pace is 7:20/km avg. I see my strava spike to 3:40/km when i sprint all out, I cant even fathom 2:53/km for a whole marathon 😵💫
I’ve said the sub 2 hour marathon is the greatest athletic achievement of all time
Nick doesn't look like a runner even though he's an Olympian it's so wierd. He really is a bison.
I saw him running in real life and he looks quite graceful and easy
I know. This popped up on my home page and at the start of the video I thought “what the hell does this guy with T-Rex arms know?”. Then I googled him and felt foolish.
tmazz85 Exactly maybe he’s gotten slower I’m not saying he’s slow just not saying he’s an Olympian
I mean Olympian fast
well hes more of a track person isnt he?
Let's break down this run for sprinters. 100m 17.06s..200m-34.17s.
400m 1min 8s for 26.2 miles. Without a doubt, the most impressive feat done by a human being in my lifetime. And remember he's 34 years old.
Holy crap 1:06 400
1 min 8s 400m for 26.2 miles is incomprehensibly fast
Kipchoge had a historically good professional Marathon season before the attempt as well which I hope doesn't get lost on people.. He dominated all season..
he got picked up for a reason
I love how you are giving kipchoge the attention and respect he deserves. I think these challenges are a little bit silly, your not a long distance runner, but they do show you how kipchoge literally runs a marathon close to the 800m times.
Maybe you are a little bit silly too.
It is "you're silly" not "your silly"
Tom Walters where did he say “your silly”?😂
@@SteveNinetyski?????
@@SteveNinetyski The irony is you still didn't correct his grammatical error.
@@keshavj4827 I did actually still correct his incorrect use of your instead of you're...technically:-)
That kid is in shape his breathing returns to near normal quickly
I’d imagine the altitude training plays a big role there!
I love how Nick, on the 800m interval, was like: "I'll take the first lap and get us at 69.5 -- to a tenth of a second." And my man did it lol. I just love how the human body and mind can be so in sync like that to be able to tell time relative to our motion, breathing, stride, etc.
Seriously!!!!
I can't even imagine running that fast for a marathon distance.
Dude even for like 2km it would kill me xD
I think he was trying to say that he couldnt even do it in his Imagination
@Berwin Tan you don't have to be a professional athlete to run a 1km 2:50, your local athletics team probably has faster people too, very fit people can run that much for 1 km
@Berwin Tan symmonds personal best in the 800 meters is 1:42 so i very doubt he could keep a 2:50-55ish pace for only 1 km.... Even when he's 36 y/o unless he's been on the couch since he retired
@Berwin Tan i mean he did run 2km before the last 1km right ? If he only run 1km all out it could be much faster
Imagine what Kipchoge could do if he chewed Run Gum. 🤔

thank you! We work hard to make them as good as possible
@@nicksymmonds You and the crew are very welcome, I hope to continue see such excellence in the videos. Also I pray to God in trying to win this contest, money is tough nowadays and those shoes could really come in handy!😅
Well done gentlemen, that was a great video! Looking forward to more!
The other great running channel!
I enjoy your videos. I’m almost 30, used to be a great runner, not so much anymore. I started running again. These little videos I see give me a little bit of motivation. Good stuff.
Between insanely fast runs, they're just chatting like two friends who just met in a Starbucks. Then they run again. I would be vomiting on my shoes.
Those shoes are to expensive to vomit on.
@@tortoise2.04 Ha ha. Good point. OK. I will have vomited very neatly next to my shoes, being careful not to get any splatter on them.

So pumped for track this year! 800 and 400 is where it’s at!!!
Just a 100m sprinter passing through 👋
Jedi Joshua Art hurdles are where it’s at
Mile
800m and 1600m
I loved running the hurdles. Ran the 200 and 400 at the beginning of my tnf career but looking back those prepared me to ultimately convert to the low and high hurdles. Really tough part of tnf it is. Then going from high school to college where the low hurdles convert to the 400 low hurdles just eclipses the 400m dash.

When Nick was at the jogging start at the last one and he said "ow" before he even crossed the starting line, I really felt that
I'm only 25 and that's starting to happen to me... I don't have that unlimited energy and indestructible muscles anymore. I'm supposed to be in my prime! Lol
You should run a mile and every time you do a lap, eat a whole run gum pack
Cades OfSpades good way to have a heart attack
He’d get faster on each lap with the caffeine and then when he stops running..
He’d just like die lol
It was so much fun watching your career as a fellow bearcat track alum. Cool to see what you're up to now on here. Love the respect you're dishing to Kipchoge.
Love you and Zach! Thanks for your videos. The challenge looks brutal!
0:58 *_am I the only one who found it soo satisfying their feet were moving at the same time?_*
Bruno McLeod homoass
*im pretty sure that would be a yes*
Bruno McLeod What a coincidence. I saw you in the comments section in a MKWii video.
Just after that you can see the guy does not have a good mobility. His back wiggles while he swings his leg. With less muscles and bettee mobility 2.50 per km would be easy for him :)
I just feel more positive after I watch one of your videos! Thank you Nick🤘
Bro I’ve been watching Zack for a few years and then I see him here. Keep up the good work Zack and Nick!
Good God the energy and production quality of this video is just stunning.
This is a simplistic demonstration of Kipchoge's pure abilities.
That 800 would be quite tough for me. I cannot believe someone runs that pace for a whole marathon. The human body is incredible
New sport for us normal people: run at Kipchoge’s pace for as long as you can.
Managed nearly 14 seconds 😤
@@littlegravitas9898 ha I got 16 seconds
@@Flairis nice job, but that was 11 months ago. I've trained, sweated, bled to improve. Now at a whole 18 seconds. I plan to hit a PR of 20 by the end of the year 💪🏾
My 400 meter pace is 69.95 seconds which mea ng s kipchoges pace is better than my 400 meter pace. Unbelievable
Can I even get there
Yes!!!! This is what I've been waiting for!! 👏🏽🙌🏽
lol my high school track is gravel with weeds and grass growing through
Really..where do you even live?
@@Someone-wo4zj literally every small town track
I've never even seen a proper track where i live
Go for it! Kipchoge trains on dirt roads!
Mine is asphalt.
Here it is, what we’ve been waiting for!
Hope you like it!!!
"Call me an ambulance, please!" 🤣 Nick, you killed it! Gosh, you are such a BEAST! Awesome how much you still have in you! Really impressive! 👊🏼
This is insane. I'm a competitive runner who has run a few 1:17 half marathons. Tonight my work out was 4 miles 1 mile 1 mile. ran the 4 mile in 22:26 and both 1 mile intervals in 5:06 . the 5:06 mile was painful and I can't believe that that wasn't near as fast as kip choge ran for a whole marathon. Insane
I don’t even run or ever really cared about running but I still watch all your vids cause it’s actually good content
I appreciate you watching my videos Mark!!
Eliud’s average time per mile during his marathon run was 4mins 30s.
The men’s world record for 1 mile is 3 mins 44s.
The woman’s world record for 1 mile is 4 mins 12s.
A good time for a healthy person to run 1 mile is 7 minutes.
These people are truly amazing and a great testament to what heights humans can reach. Eluid is something else and I wouldn’t want to run on a track with him because it would be embarrassing to be overtaken multiple times 😰
Insane training , makes you want to become greater
One your left
Actually it's 3:43.13
Thank you for saying what you said about young runners and side stitches and just needing to learn the nutrition - very encouraging!
WOW 😍 great running! You guys smashed it :) This just shows how unbelievable Kipchoge is.
Best entertainment of the day after yoga and rollerskiing! You guys are an awesome duo! Watched both channels of course.
Kipchoge’s record is insane, to keep a pace like that is unbelievable let alone for a while marathon
The difference is that they are relaxing but Kipchoge did not relax the same pace he started with was the same, but the finishing was faster than the starting
This is phenomenal! Most people can’t comprehend what Kipchoge has accomplished and this track test puts his stellar performance on display. Nick still has his kick!
Awesome vid guys, was looking forward all week for u nd Zach!
I sprinted a 400m in 65 seconds yesterday, giving it all I had in strong tailwind. I was running only 4 seconds faster than the marathon World Record pace. Scary
it's actually impressive to see how hard an Olympian like Nick has to try to keep the pace for 1km only...
Well nick wasn't a distance runner anyways. Well he was mid distance but still...
Nick, these videos are super entertaining and really motivates me to run for a long time. Thankyou🙌🙌😊
Ik this is late but it’s a run gum shirt
This was fun to watch! Thank you
Zack's form looks flawless.
Wow, just the shoe I've been wanting to try. I like how you tried this out, his sub 2 hour was insane
I been a fan since the D3 days. Glad to see you still involved in the running scene
This is great! I love hearing you talk, it’s always so insightful and especially helpful for a runner! 🙌🏻💙
hey nick so my xc season has ended :( but that just means that indoor track is starting. if i want to use run gum for my meets do i have to chew it 5minutes before my event (because on the website it says it take 5-10min to absorb)?
Those splats are sick but I would also love to have those vapor flys for Cross country off season
Recently discovered your channel because CZcams recommended it to me after I had watched a vid about Kipchoge.
I've loved your content so far. It's so impressive that you're so wellspoken, charismatic, smart, goodlooking... the list goes on. Lol
You have so much valuable knowledge to share and great stories to tell, and you do that exceptionally well. I appreciate that you're creating so much content. I don't know very much about olympic athletes, but after having gotten the chance to peer through this small window into your life that this youtube channel is, I can confidently say I'm a Nick Symmonds fan.

@@nicksymmonds but is he an Olympian? ;)
Well, Nick always ran like a bison. Even as a pro. Never had a smooth pace. but it doesn't mater. He is a bison. Was and stayed
Other dude is built more like a distance runner
they two are good athletes and struggled to maintain Kipchoge's pace for few minutes .. the guy did it for 2 Horus !! its just insane

Also Zach: Nike tank and nike shorts
I really wish my school had a track team so I could run on a team in spring.
Yooooo both of my favourite running youtubers in the same video!!!! Dope!!!!!
The production of this is incredible
If I recall, Kipchoge was an "ok" 1000m runner. He became a beast when he went to marathon.
Hey nick, the other day I decided to work out his average splits for myself, and for 800 I got 2:16 (2:19 shown in the video)
7180.4 (1h59m40.4s)
Divided by
42195 (marathon distance in metres)
= 5.8764m/s
800/this speed
Gives you 136.137 seconds or about
2:16.14 for 800m
Went to Sheldon in 2001 and 2002. Love Eugene. Getting into running pretty hard right now. Love your content.
Man I love these videos, keep it up man!
I love how Zach’s hat is the same color as the clouds 😂

Thank you nick, you gave me so much you have inpirited me to run
I just can’t believe that people run for fun
me neither but those few times that I somehow tried it, it felt pretty good
Just randomly went for a 14.5 mile run yesterday. It was pretty awesome with everything covered in snow...
When you get into it you'll understand :)
I love sprinting and continuously running but as soon as I start walking while trying to do a mile, I start to hate it because my body wants to shut down 😂
Dude, distance is where it’s at!
Dude, I actually would love a pair of Nike VaporFly Next%. If I don’t win though, congrats to the person who did.
Yes, I need those. I have track season in the spring. LIKED AND SUBSCRIBED!!
Love this. All the way from South Africa ❤️
Wow I don’t even know how you can possibly run that fast for that long, I can only run 1200 meters max at that pace it’s crazy
Kipchoge is highly underrated. Should be crown the greatest athlete in history.what he does defies human physiology.
Yes!
I was right in my prediction :D
This was an entertaining video ... keep it up.
First time watching your video and loving this already
Zach's running style looks so beautiful.
I would love those Vaporflys, they are simply to expensive for me right now as all my money are spent on college books “300$” freaking books. This is insanity.
