    Goran, your enthusiasm is infectious. I always find that your videos lift my spirits. Thanks for sharing.

    1 tip that I found improved my speed massively over a tiny amount of time was the purchase of 6 leads, 6 huskies and the word "mush!"
  • @randmcnally.
    you should do a video series or complication video where you do that "one more run" in each pair of shoes in that back room, describe the era of the shoe, the accomplishments/failures, and why you purchased them, then put them out of their misery - or better yet find a practical way to recycle/salvage them - because there is no doubt that room has an odour to it 😁

    I've purchased two pairs of used high end running shoes on eBay from trusted sellers. Both pair were in very good condition with many miles left. Including shipping the cost was less than a third of the new retail price. Helped with the expense.
  • Göran's one of the only guys who I watch the ads. Did my first 3k again after an emergency gallbladder surgery just over 3 weeks ago! I had a massive infection so I spent 2.5 being down and out, but it felt great to get on the trail a little bit yesterday. I didn't go fast, but I was just happy to get out there!
  • In month 2 of recovery from a broken foot, this video hit hard. Thank you for the great content and relatable messaging as always. I'm even more motivated to keep up with the physio and recover as you said, better than before having the chance to work on some strength issues 😊
  • @kenjiheilman5413
    Great video, Goran. Very well done. Thank you for the work you do on these!
  • I've been following a lot of running 'gurus' online for a long time, but you are the most down to earth with your advice.
  • @benh1578
    Yet another great video, i've been watching your videos for over a year now and continue to be impressed by the production quality and good information! Keep it up.
  • @leeloohad
    Thanks for this video! You made great points in this one :)
  • @jvmoony
    Thank you for the insight. My favorite part is at 03:00 when you slide over the ice. 😁
  • @sodaresoda
    "Embracing the pain." 100% 🔥 Thanks for the great content Göran!
  • @acs4872
    Goran, you've done it again! Great content and advice.
  • @hmcdonald3164
    Wise words, experience is a great teacher!! Thanks for another great video. Run safe mate.

    At 58 I have realised that there isn't going to be any new PB's, except maybe in terms of distance more so than speed, but I still like to push just for the heck of it and I really struggle to keep the slow runs slow enough. That said I do listen to my body a lot nowadays and how I feel will always overrule whatever any training plan might prescribe for the day. With age comes higher risk of injuries, and recovery typically takes a lot longer, so never force through a performance that your body cannot cope with. A bit of a balancing act, finding just the right sweet spot, where you get a really good running session without damaging anything.
