      yes, they make it look so easy and smooth but running with that pace is insane!

      running 5km was a must every Wednesdays. 10 km every last week of the month. i remember how my lungs felt after every run. And i was from a national school in kenya....

    That workout was something else! The hard pace was fast, but what's crazy is the easy pace was still plenty fast. Recovery at 5:40 pace haha.

  • @sebastiantang4998
    @sebastiantang4998 Před 6 lety +32

    Most of their shoes were so worn out! Soles were coming off, some shoes were out of shape too, yet the runners were doing fast pace. Man if these were worn by us for daily training, they would've been thrown away long ago

    • @lerrygindgren2076
      @lerrygindgren2076 Před 4 lety +2

      it also helps that they're running on dirt a lot, where it doesn't matter as much if your shoes are worn out but if you're running on roads in more developed countries, it's gonna be more painful and dangerous to run on worn out shoes

  • @bbjonas4233
    @bbjonas4233 Před 6 lety +9

    I feel like I have running form like them (not as fast of course) when I run down hills... The quick turnover, leg pull, lean, etc... If I could just transfer that to the flats!! They make it look so easy!

    it's about time flotrack released these episodes to the public rather than giving crappy 2 minute trailers and then making us pay an insane amount of money for a FloPro to watch the full episode

    • @mattfox1250
      @mattfox1250 Před 7 lety +31

      If they didn't make you pay anything, they wouldn't be able to create a business model to go to Kenya and other places and film these sorts of things in the first place.

    @JohnDoe-km9cx Před 5 lety +1

    15km with 1km hard pace and 1km moderate pace on a hilly route. The only problem for me is I have to carry a hydration bag while doing this workout and it quite hard to do it because the hydration bag will bounce.
