Mental Training for Athletes and Motivation. I think you all understand the importance of motivation and its role within the mental training of athletes. However, often the problem is not in understanding the importance but how to sustain it. How to keep the motivation going.
This can definitely be tough, and not always straight forward.Mental Training Primary causes of low motivation. Time goals are the primary reward from running; Goals are realistic at present; Not enough rest between stress workouts; Running too hard most running days; Not enough “joy runs” each week; Not enough walk breaks in long runs and sometimes other runs; Running with a group that is too fast for you.Running for hours can get extremely boring if you don’t know what to do with yourself. Running long on a treadmill teaches you to stay mentally occupied.
It builds confidence for future long runs outside. Like “Hey I ran the same distance on a treadmill, no way I’m getting bored here right now.Increasing your mental strength will pay dividends – not only in your running, but in life in general as well, says Paula Radcliffe By Runner’s World 21/01/2020.Runners train their bodies to adapt to those signals, and over time the effort of running at a given pace gets lower. But less-obvious signals, like mental fatigue, also contribute to how hard your.
3 Mental Exercises 1. ) Take away your extrinsic motivators. Here are a couple of scenarios for you: 1.) You arrive at your nice, clean, air-conditioned gym in the morning before heading into work. You meet up with your training partner and talk about your game plan to crush your workout today.
And not one of them was prepared, truly prepared, to believe that it had not so much to do with chemicals and zippy mental tricks as with that most unprofound and sometimes heart-rending process of removing, molecule by molecule, the very tough rubber that comprised the bottoms of his training shoes. The Trial of Miles, Miles of Trials.“It all starts in your mind” – We all heard this phrase before. But have you ever thought about how much your mind really affects your running performance?

Running motivation can come in different forms when the finish line isn’t in sight–new running shoes, a new training plan, or even joining a running club. But at its purest, motivation is the human desire to do something; unlocking that desire may be even more difficult than the task itself.Despite the obvious physicality of running, there is also an enormous mental component to training and racing.
Building mental fitness alongside physical fitness is essential to long-term success and longevity in the sport. We’ve all struggled with difficult runs, bad races or even weeks of low focus and motivation. Hitting rough patches is unavoidable over months and years of training.

PEDs do not build mental toughness. They just allow you to do more work and thereby to recover better.
More advice on “toughness” from a cheating-ass dope coach with an abusive personality? He’s a blemish on the sport of running.
It’s so weird watching these interviews now knowing what happened to Mary Cain
If I ever come across alberto Salazar. I am whooping his ass
A must watch motivational video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K29hvBNHNXA&t=4s
Just came here after I heard the four year ban he got cause I know people gon talk they shit
Gailand Roid Rupp and MOre drugs Farah two of the toughest minds in sport. Can see why now
Video update required…. USADA came knocking. Salazar’s done and the Nike Doping Project has been shut down.
I truly wish I found out this video 3 years ago where I hit rock bottom. Where my fears and anxiety were controlling me like a slave I could not fight back I thought I could never win, till I got so depressed and I had a very miserable life. I manned the fuck up I stood my ground I have managed to lose more than 100KGS, finished second place in a national tournament for tennis something I never thought I could achieve. Conquer your fears before they conquer you.
I’m on a bit of a fence but seems like a great running coach…I’d go to war with him.
Alberto Salazar burn out himself in 1982-84, in Rotterdam marathon in 1983 he placed 5th where he proved not be the fastest marathon runner instead Rob de Castella won and 2nd Carlos Lopez from Portugal
Spoiler Alert for those who watched this a year ago its PEDs
David Goggins is one of those dudes you don’t want to say “I’m too tired to train” to. Unless you want a cold stare off. Lmao
Alberto Salazar is awesome! I saw him running through the streets of New York on his way to a 2:08:13 marathon and I was mesmerized and amazed when he started running 4:30 splits in the later stages of the race! So cool!
I hear he is just like Lance Armstrong. BTW, whatever happened to Lance Armstrong?
Hahahahahahhahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaa a lot of good this did at Boston. My man Yuki won!
Mental! QD: Not being able to run normally due to shin pains. Mentally stressful that it’s taking too long to get back to 100%, that I have to run too slowly, that there’s little progress, that I can’t push myself hard or it will just hurt too badly the next day, that I can’t really afford to see a doctor about it. It sucks. But at least I can still kinda run.
Alberto Salazar is the EPITOME of mental toughness, for better or for worse! He nearly killed himself TWICE. Falmouth Road Race and Boston 1982. I mean that as a compliment! However Ill advised!
Definitely a worthy interview to watch a beautiful exploration of sport pyschology.
What’s he still doing there? Just giving everyone associated with him a tainted reputation. I see Laura Muir saw the light and cancelled him. When is Nike going to cancel him?
The shitty instagram filter and bad 80’s documentary music really tie the video together well.
How about y’all shut up about the blood doping, what evidence do you have?!!!
We all fall down in life, the question is who gets back up. ✨
such a pile of bullcrap… Alberto Salzazar = PEDs. Fucking hypocrite.
Thanks, great video! Similar experience here, especially during intervals. Also the intervals help me prepare for the pain during a race…
My challenge is to run the first mile at the right pace, instead of going out too fast. Always say I’ll start slow but tend to run first mile too fast every time

Good Luck… Salazar….
Very-very good Video…
Thanks…
2 years ago I was in my best shape, now I’m over weight and it’s sooo hard to get back in track
Haha, I always get the “I want to give up” feeling, even with something short like 400m repeats. I actually expect to feel this way now, otherwise I start thinking I probably didn’t push as hard as I could’ve!
Also, such an inspiring story. Just saw the video about her!
I understand him completely. I have had many medical issues growing up including a rare learning disability. I chose to go to a very difficult high school and it has been a struggle since day one. I have thought about quitting many times, but I say no because I worked so hard to get where I am. Now I just have a year and a half left and I’m off to college. I can’t wait to be out of college so I can enlist in the marines or start BUDs. I have found that I enjoy pushing myself to my limits and beyond. I found this to be quite clear when I tried out for the swim team. I made it and ended up swimming 36000 yards a week on top of my studies, getting almost no sleep. This only makes me believe more and more that I can get through BUDs and reach my ultimate goal of becoming a navy seal. And like what David said about the opening the door, if I end up taking a civilian route, I want to be a firefighter. I want to be the first person to get into the burning building. I have been slowed down many times, but nothing has stopped me from achieving my goals, and I don’t plan on being stopped anytime soon.
Championships are not won in the theatres or arenas but in the 1000’s of hours sacrificed behind the scenes…
How can you be drinking beer while making a running video ahaha
since watching david goggins, I’ve lost 65lbs and run 10 miles a day. running a 10 miler trail race tomorrow and signing my waivers for the Navy on Monday. This man changed my life
Hi there,
I amlooking for this motivational speech which has been removed from youtube by its
user. (Why would somebody do that, it had over 3 million views). Anyway, Since
it’s removed I cant see who the author was (I had it in my favorites). Now I’m
searching youtube because I believe it will be on here somewhere. Problem is by
searching you only get to see the top with millions of views.
Hopefully somebody is able to help me finding this one. Short description: It’s around
3.50 I believe. The first 1.40 min a raw voice (Not Eric Thomas) which I do not know by name is
talking. @ around 1.45 its Les Brown talking with epic music on the background, talking about ‘taking the hinges
off, I AM GOING TO MAKE IT’ also this exact text is in this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZDrKz_mFmlY
The videois supported by sport events, fitness and I believe swimming in a sort off grey
environment. This is the only thing I remember of this video. I really hope
somebody knows what video I am referring to and sincerely hope somebody is able
to send me a link where to find in on youtube. Many thanks.
Everybody wants happiness, and nobody wants pain, but you can’t have a rainbow without a little rain
WOW that’s so powerful!! I can really feel this energy and connection. I am going to change my mindset!! Listening to more if these everyday everytime I wake up!! Everytime I go to bed!!! Become more better then the best I can be!! I’ve struggled all my life, 11 deaths in 8 years family and friends including my mother! My father left when I was 11 months old, I’ve been beaten as a child with a wooden stick carved thick to handle beatings and my name was written on it!! I was raped for years became an addict for ten years! Suffered physical abuse and mental abuse for 17 years. I let that take me down. Until 4 years ago I got clean started over!! With two kids 11&9 years old. Today listening to this has given me the motivation I need it has awaken me inside!!
Man I just cried, I really want to be fit and proved my coach that I’m worth to play decathlon not just a thrower. FUCK THAT NEGATIVITY BULLSHIT IM GONNA FUCKING WORK MY ASS OFF TO IMPROVE MYSELF NOT FOR OTHERS BUT FOR MYSELF

Please.
Wow another great video! I finally heard something new and like it. Keep it up. Positive hope.
Hey Seth, could u send me any one running pair through courier, I can’t afford it,I wanna start running. Reply I’ll put my address.
As I used to say to the football players in my high school, “your sport’s punishment is my sport.” What I was talking about is that as distance runners, we know what it is to suffer and keep going. We’ve all heard what I call “the voice.” The voice says “oh, you don’t really need to do this 20 miler today, you’ve done enough training, you don’t need to do 4 more 800 meter intervals, it hurts or worse during a race, you can slow down and make this a training run.” My response to the voice is to tell it to F off. I think most if not all runners have the same response. That helps to develop mental toughness. What really impresses me are the people who are new to running, who may be overweight and who don’t have people mentoring them and STILL, the put in the miles and ignore the voice. I think that is real courage. So, I would suggest that experienced runners coming across one of these newbies offer some encouraging words and show some respect. That’s one of the things that make our sport something special. Cheers.
I’m a 15 year old runner and a lot of people ask my almost every day “why are you running every day for hours?” “Why do you work out so much” they laugh because I go for run at 5 am. They always say “running isn’t a sport everyone can do it.” Its annoying but I ignore it almost every time cause I want to focuse on my goal…
You can do it ❤
I woke up this morning..started jogging and not even.5 miles in my shoulder/neck started hurting
..what a joke. Still showed up at the gym for weight lifting. If Goggins can do what he did, I can do this
I decided to take on ice skating. 2 days in, it felt like I had broken my tailbone (didn’t, just very sore from falling), had fallen somewhat bad on my thumb and someone wrecked my coat while I was on the ice. I felt pretty discouraged that day, but went back 2 days later, then the day after. Can’t say I’m good at it, but I enjoy it and it feels better than sitting on my ass, crying because I’m not anything near the level for the Olympics lol! A room is not cleaner because you put the dust all under the carpet.

Amazing video. It describes how a person needs to motivate for his own body progress. Great job.
My favorite video. Listen to this when I “think” I am done at the gym. I then can do much more
So many people tried to put me out of my comfort zone.
Failed.
Then I watched this video.
I wanna back to the football in general but specially futsal games after dealing with anxiety and depression for two years. I try to back to training cause I’m not the old 2013 me in level of stamina my last full football game was in 2015 let’s see what we can do. I had in my teenager years school and street football career from 2007 to 2015. I can’t hide that there’s an inner voice says to me it’s too late but it’s the only way to feel alive again for me.
So encouraging! CHRIST deserves the credit as well. We can’t open our eyes in the morning without him ✨ love y’all and have an amaaaaazing day!!!
Thank you Seth. There are a lot of advice gems in this video. I ran 21.1 km, not a race, just a personal attempt on 16th April. It is not the fastest (2 hours 33 min) but I am really proud that I can do it. But at the same time, I must remind myself not to be a desperate runner. To remember to rest and relax besides training better. To set great time and great pace while losing the ability to enjoy a run, will defeat the whole purpose of me starting running.
Qotd my biggest challenge for mental confidence is knowing that my body is aging. Working to learn to accept that distance and pace can and will likely decrease over time. Also working to accept that those metrics dont mean everything in overall health and happiness.
And figured your keys to mental toughness would align with mine. What else am I gonna do is a question I still ask myself before most runs 3 years in. Yesterday’s answer was service 2 vehicles, a lawn mower, tidy up a yard, clean a boat. Today’s answer was take a nap or catch up on all of SJD’s videos I missed this week, so I ran. Love the channel but priorities! I will catchup soon!
Hi mate what do you do before the start of the run do you just do what you did at the start of this race?? Thank you.

To me on this day I need this I’m 32 just got told I lost my job after 3 years cozs I’m not good enough but everone will c ill never give up and ill never quit ill be great try and stop me
Mental! QD: I can’t plan long runs, the occasion has to be there and then it becomes an opportunity which makes me very happy. On the other hand, I know I have to use the occasion to “push my limits”: the long run will evolve so that I will hit a certain limit by the last 3 miles. This can be “tired legs” through hills or “tired heart” through plain distance. Once I hit this point I become happy, but that final mile and that dilemma “to stop or to go 1 more” makes my mental side flip from A to Z to A to…:-)

I lost my house, my dog, my car, everything! and had to sleep in my truck for 3 and 1/2 years chasing a job I hated. Everyday I wanted to give up. Im better now but it took over 5 years and Im still trying. You only lose if you give up and quit.
This mentality can be applied to anything. But you NEED to work out to accomplish those other goals, it gets rid of anxiety, negative energy, stress, and makes you look better, all positives. Only then can you heal enough and retrain your mind to get your career goals done. IE: Finishing school, starting a new job instead of continuing your shitty one. It will take everything, but you have everything.
I’ve always been a believer of that mentality too, “You aren’t going to magically do something in a race that you haven’t trained for. Fitness does not lie.” If anything, I’m a little on the conservative/pessimistic side. I admire those that are so optimistic that they think they can do anything. I wish I had that degree of blind faith in myself.
Why thumbs down? Who cares. They probably weren’t ready to hear truth.
Good morning! Hope everyone is starting off in a great mood today!! Keep going! We will do this!
The moment I see David Goggins, i always want to push myself to achieve goals in a year that would take 10 years or an entire life time for a normal human being.

The 407 dislikes is because they know he is right but they think he is just bragging and they are not willing to give it their all and not willing to listen to this man.
QUESTION: DID YOU GET PERMISSION TO WATER DOWN DAVID GOGGINS MESSAGE WITH A “CENSORSHIP GOVERNOR”?!?!
Goggins is the reason I joined the Army & I’m scheduled to go to RASP (tryout for ranger) in a few months. He really changes lives.
The toughest man on the planet is someone who obeys God even when facing diversity that strongly influences him not obey God. Such as reciting the Ten Commandments in chronological order by memory, is a good start the question is, can the soldier boy recite the Ten Commandments by memory as I can???…
.. Thou shalt not kill, did God give you permission to kill as he did with the Hebrews concerning the Egyptians the sought to re-inslave them?.. has he been serving God for 17 years plus as I have or sixty years as my mentor has?.. he who serves god well is the toughest man on the planet.
Motivational verbatim can be mentally exhausting but to listen to the ones who’ve walked the talk puts you on a mental pedestal whereby you can walk through the fire in your worst form. DG is the G.O.A.T.
This man is amazing! He’s gotten me through so much, man. I dropped the victim mentality and shaped the future I wanted, and I ain’t done I won’t be until my last breath
The people who said he wasn’t gonna be shit are punching air rn
He missed his greatest dream Delta Force making 1 mistake and it cost him. He shot for the Heavens and landed in the Stars. Unstoppable
I hate watching videos…but I’m suffering through this cuz Goggins says I gotta in order to be great.
Who in the bloody hell could give this video or this man a thumbs down??? Unfreaking real.
When i need motivation i come to david goggins to keeps me motivated
I try to always run in a mentally comfortable place. Some days that’s an easy pace and some days my threshold is higher. But I don’t ever want to go back to a place of hating running or dreading runs.
In oder for man to grow, man got to let go off some habits! Let man up fellows!
Love your channel and the effort you put into it and you motivate me to go out on those long runs by myself ✅
Great video. Dont overlay buds talk over the army apft tho lol
The real tough guys don’t proclaim to the world, I am tough!!! This guy is a douchebag. He is not hard.
I love it ( behind every fear a person you wanna be )
The best thing that happened to me is that no one helped me.
True inspiration, David Giggins
Suffering pointlessly to turning it into a measure you can use to learn from and grow….please Sir….may I have some more?…
I luv this shit this guys so amazing and am joining the army no matter what
“I hate eating” LMAO I agree with most everything in this video but that’s ridiculous. We are not plants we need to get our energy by eating smh
I guess doing what I hate will end me up in a spot that I might hate as well I don’t have to love the process I just have to be able to keep going without mental or physical damage to be able to enjoy the income and love the result
I can’t get this gurl out of my head and this video helped. Please keep me in your prayers guys

I had a severe work accident almost died, neck, dorsal and lower back injuries got told by surgeon and many specialists i couldnt work physical our do sports anymore it was to risky, crying at night cause i didn’t took the pills to sleep.. i told my self i rather die then live like that so i started doing weights, running pull ups. My back still bad still hurts like hell but i never give up now im joining the military! I wont back down hell no! people told me im crazy damn right I am cause no one will tell me what are my limits.. I have none
7k miles huh. Taraumari indians in North america run that in two weeks. 100 miles a day to get to town and back. 100 mile marathons without tranning and in sandals. They dont have the boundaries society feeds you
Props for accomplishments but lost me in “whoever the hell your God is”
Dont waste your time guys. Get it done. If you dont one day you will wake up and realize you failed on your dreams and have to work a 9-5 you hate. You can do it!!
The shitty sad piano music in the background trying to make you feel inspired is the icing on this boring ass cake.
If you’re going to open the door then open the fucking door. I love it.
I love your running knolege ❤️ im getting my piramid ready for spead this 49er
Could you talk about training in the heat?
I live in FL, and I had to train through the “horrors” of 5AM long runs at 82 degrees and 95% humidity during the summer while training for the Chicago Marathon.
Since I mostly trained by HR, my paces were extremely slower and I couldn’t train my tempo runs at marathon pace because it was so hot/humid that the pace itself became more like a 10K pace (or at least thats what it felt like).
Would you adjust your paces depending on your HR, or would you ditch the HR and continue to do your workouts at your prescribed paces?
How do you go from training 40-60 seconds slower than your marathon race pace to actually racing at that pace when the race comes around (Chicago was 45 and 70% humidity)?
Thanks a ton, Sage!

Once you face extreme difficulty of any type you realize your own greatness, and that realization is key…without adversity you cannot be tested to your limits…the best Pit Bulls are the runts of the litter…watch them fight to survive, watch them struggle to feed from their mother while their siblings brutalize and overwhelm them. Then at the moment of total exhaustion, watch them attempt repeatedly and don’t help them until they are at the brink of death. Then separate that runt, nourish it back to health and begin to train it. Watch what happens….it will die with jaws locked, fighting until the end and beyond…
I feel that investing time in mental confidence is very important to achieving goals, running or otherwise
By the time I started wanting to be a real winner, im already 20 year old Uni student with hardly any passion on my major at all
Great display of mental toughness in the TNF50 on the weekend. Looked like you really practiced what you have been preaching! Really impressive!

My friend: are you a crazy?
I watch this before I went to my cross country meet and my time improved
Will Smith should make movie where he plays Goggin’s character!! Anyone agree?
Just finished reading Running with the Buffaloes yesterday, so it was a real treat to get to see you run Mags.
Seth, I read some of the comments here, not all. I’m surprised I haven’t seen anything on mental visualization. Back in the day when I ran in college our coach brought in a sports psychologist that worked with us one season. We had to take 10 or 15 min a night where we would go into a quiet room and close our eyes and just visualize our race. We would have an imaginary white board where we would see our lap times (at the time I was running the 1500). We also had a “trigger” during the race which was a point in the race where we wanted to make a move (mine was the final lap bell). Prior to visualizing our race, we were to relax every part of our body going from head to toe. We did this every night leading up to Conference and Regions in hopes of getting a National qualifying time. Well we started out with a large no. of track runners and by the end of the season only a few of us were still doing the visualization homework. It all came together for me at our Conference meet where I was in 5th place at the bell. I slowly started picking off the runners ahead of me one by one and as we rounded the final turn I later told my brother that I couldnt believe I was going to take second at Conference. Well, I out leaned the leader to win the race in 3:51.5. My roommate/teammate who also did the visualization homework qualified for Nationals and to this day holds the school record for the Steeplechase. and one other runner “Greg” qualified for Nationals in the 5000 m. My point is you have to put in the leg work, but dont forget to visualise in your mind what you want the outcome to be. See it in your minds eye.
Three things help me mentally: knowing “you gotta want to hurt” to run fast and executing that (not caving to the run hurt), my natural grit, and racing in all kinds of conditions.
you cant stream a video feed of a television channel man! be careful. Im sure if you say sorry and tell them you didnt know you can stream again.
Mental-Such a great video Seth! “Fitness doesn’t lie” i like that a lot. I think my biggest mental challenge is running at similar paces on the road as I do the track. Because I can’t see the finish line similar to track I tend to suck at judging at where I’m at in a race. This then leads to my pacing being all over the place. Any tips on how to work on this?
This video reminds me of a great quote I like to follow in my running and life in general.
“If you want something you’ve never had, you must do something you’ve never done.”
Good stuff Seth.
your stride is so relaxed in the turbos! great video shots Seth!
How many times do you run week? I know it is dependent on the mileage, but some insight into the most efficient way to break up your week would be helpful.
You’re amazing to listen to. I love your videos and all you do for running. Your passion is contagious! Don’t ever lose that.
I’m running Cleveland Marathon and New York city 2020 ♂️

My mental challenge in the long runs is trusting my training and overthinking pace, nutrition and hydration. I know I can do it, but sometimes it’s a challenge on runs over a half marathon distance.
Love the speaches so Iget up and get moving. I listen to motivation speakers while working on solar projects
Last July, while with some family friends who run half marathons, they knew I ran 5ks in relatively fast times (not XC times, but sub-20 is better than the average joe) and they were asking about when I was going to finally run a half marathon. I told them that I never wanted to run a half marathon. November, following that July, I set out on my first half-marathon, after a week of being sick and not being able to run, with a goal of 1:45, and put down a 1:34:30.5 on a very hilly course. I cannot describe the pain cave I was in for the last two or three miles, but I had a friend by my side who had caught up with me (he’s a sub 3:00 marathoner just running the race for miles) and he was dumbfounded to have found me this far ahead of my target. He was determined to see me get in ahead of 1:35. I passed people on every hill and with some quality coaching on the back half, I pulled off the most solid performance of my life in my first half-marathon. The level of emotion as I sprinted out the last 100m of the race, to the finish, was overwhelming. In May, I’m shooting to break 1:32:00 or better. I have 600+ more miles of Aerobic base since that race, and a good amount of track time. We will see how race day goes! Today you mentioned embracing the pain. This is the most important thing I’ve discovered in racing. Who is willing to hurt and who is willing to hurt the longest. At the end of it is either glory or disappointment, the length you are willing to hurt is proportionate to your results.
I’m a highschooler from a small town that runs track (800/1500/3000), and the fact I’m from a small town my running group is small as well, the diference of age is huge and I’m the only middle distance runnerof the group. And in my “long” track repeats (800meters and 1000meters ) I struggle to finish because I run alone.
So my question is: What tips do you have for I run “long” repeats without struggle?
“Are you tired of complicated planners??”
“NO, I’m tired of 5 ads per video”
Mine is doubt. Doubt that I can maintain my effort for however long the race is. Doubt that I can reach a high position in the race. Doubt that my legs and stomach will hold out. It’s a tough demon to fight, but when you’re out there for many many hours, it’s a good one to ponder and tackle.
My Challenge is in the long training runs more than say 30k keeping the mind positive & busy, not bored sleepy & start tripping over things, amazing video Seth,
I am sick and tired of all these girls breaking my heart and playing with my emotions I just want to have a tough mentality
Thanks for the motivation Seth! Biggest mental challenge is getting out when the weather is trash. When it’s sunny or I’m doing a long, slow run on a weekend, I can’t wait to get out. But when it’s chilly or dark out and I’m exhausted, getting outside can be the hardest part.
This was one of my favorite videos you’ve made. Bravo! Last week I read Running With The Buffaloesit’s great to see video of Mags. Maybe you can do a redux of the book but in vlog form? That would be amazing!
MENTAL:
I’ve constantly fought between my body’s desire to run slow for a long period of time (LSDs are lots of fun for me) and running fast to train for faster times. I still work on it constantly where I am putting my faith in my training plan rather than my body to prepare me for an upcoming race.
Great video as usual!
You may also read a short text called the Present which is available for free on the website called Global Truth Project.The book is about the truth of life and it shows the full picture of life for the first time sp that you may stop being deceived by the world and be able to follow the steps of Jesus.A lifechanger!
personally, i partially run so i can spend the rest of saturday “recovering” on the couch with the playstation on:)
I constantly think about, “Have I earned the right to run at the speed I want for the distance required”
wish he had a daughter so i could have another tough female friend
Thanks for today’s tips. I am doing Rite Aid Cleveland Marathon as well. I am going through the same emotions as well. Got to be mentally strong to go through this stage of training. I will be heading to the track today to do speed work out and I will be doing a long run this week ( 18 22 miles). I am little nervous but as you said we got to go through this. Thanks again for the video.
The cinematic shots you get are insane. As a viewer I appreciate your time in these vlogs
Hoping to run a sub 1 hour 10K this weekend! I feel the most confident when I’m well trained and set reasonable goals for myself. I ran 6.2 miles Last week during an 8 mile training run in about 58 minutes so I’m confident I can do it!
Mental.
When I am injured it is very hard for me to stay mentally focused because I am so pissed off
Thanks for that video, I felt the whole time that those words are especially for me:)
Keep up the good work including metric system lengths and times! Love it! You putting in that extra effort helps so much following your videos without having to convert all the time. Great job! Also your content is really really good! Inspiring!:)
So mentally tough that you can’t compete without performance enhancing drugs. I think I’d have hyper confidence and mental strength knowing I was backed up on PEDs and had that edge over my competitors.
Do you ever get arch pain when wearing a new pair of shoes for the forst time
Can I get through studying? Can I get through 100 pushups a day?

MENTAL: Love the balance in these rules and strategies. Work hard, but be (at least somewhat) realistic as well. For me, I think the hardest part for Mental Strength is the rest and recovery phase as there is so much progress I want to make and patience is tough. I think about your enjoy the “Process” vlog (Jan 26) all the time!
At 50 and still a newer runner, I was reviewing my data from where I started again (after 3 month injury) in mid-Nov 2018 to now and it is amazing how the progression works. I push harder and then have to take a week or two to step back as my body is saying “whoa boy!”. A little rest, and I end up being stronger, but man is it hard to take the foot off the gas pedal, and it takes a lot of gas to power this 200lb, but still shrinking, clydesdale:-)
My mind always tells me that I cannot do a certain workout, that I should take it easy. I know that I will feel great if I complete the wotkout at the given pace and that is my motivation. I want to prove myself that I can do it.
great video,you litterally spoke my mind! i use exactly the same techniques. But if i ever want to hit that runners high, I feel i usually have to inspire myself with something greater tha just myself. I usually think of pushing on for mankind, and what a human can really be capapble of, or leaving a legacy for others to follow and improve on. Really diggin the video, this kind of stuff is real good, helps deepen my existing beliefs.
Came here from the nofap motivation tool, this is just amazing, saved, im stronger than i was before and i will accheive my goal!
now I understand the message of greg plitt…he is dead…but for all of us no…we train we motivate with him with his words…. thx greg
I was watching when FloTrack took down the video and honestly coparate companies think that they can ruin someones channel
These videos are so well edited sorry this channel doesn’t get its due in cred
Currently reading running with the buffalo, so cool to get a look at what old mags is really like!
I cannot believe this happened Seth, you didn’t know you were doing anything wrong. You do not need a strike on your account that’s ridiculous. That’s one thing about me I’m very mentally strong and confident. I always told people it’s always a mind game. If you can’t pull off mental focus that’s really going to hurt you. But you’re right you have to be at your Peak Fitness for sure. I know at 43 years old I cannot run the times I used to, and I know that. I know I can’t run the half-marathon that I was planning on. this injury put a damper on my running. there’s no way that I can run a good time and be where I wanna be.
QD: have you ever messed around with intermittent fasting? I started doing it over 2 years ago, with immediate positive results in my training; less inflammation, energy through the roof, and surprisingly a mental clarity and vigor never present.
Good word today Seth! Also, didn’t realize you were a walk-on? That’s incredible!
Hardest mental part for me is just getting the shoes on and going out in the first place. I always love it when I’m out, but for some reason tell myself I really don’t want to do it before I go.
Sir please recommend me light weight shoes for 800m.i m preparing for race and reebok floatridw is too costly for me.
Pease sir
My challenge is to control my mind and make it work for me! I always finish my marathons with a full tank! And I do have a terrible feeling that I could have pushed harder than I did!
Mental!
QD: My biggest mental block I’m training to overcome is injury risk. Coming from a healed stress fracture, any niggle I feel in that foot during a run causes me to slow down ever so slightly. Another big mental block is seeing how far I’ve run, or where I’m going way off in the distance causes me to question why I’m doing this (while I’m running) but the biggest question that arrises is, “Am I nuts?!”
Thank you for this vlog Seth, it really is helpful as next week is my last tough week before I begin to taper. I’ve shaved 20 minutes off my 20 miler, and am hopeful my final long run will be just a little faster keeping me in line with a lowish 4 hour marathon.
Those trails.
All I have here are like a few fields and 2 ways along the river.
But then I remember there are people who just have access to a park in the city.
tbf after a 30km I like to sit on a couch:D
You should try to stream on another service, maybe twitch tv until the copyright strike gets off your channel so you don’t have to miss streaming!
Sub 5 what? WTH is that ! Yes we have free will. I choose to run… I do miss my Atari 2600 PAC Man but being healthy is the best… my biggest challenge mentally is believing I can push it harder than I do… I don’t think I’ve gotten enough miles in lately but I know that adrenaline will be there on Saturday with me as I Crush Cancer! Set my playlist last night and that will help too!
Just got hoka speedgoats 3.. does anyone have experience in them? If yes do you think they’re suitable for hiking? I wanna get a pair for my dad too
asking the real question here. how did you get that much beer from that small can?
I can relate to EVERY word you said. This is the most encouraging speech I’ve heard EVER. thank you x
He wanted to teach mental toughness but I learned how to change
Loved this. However I recently watched a conference from Idriss Aberkane and he clearly convinced me with his argument that in order to grow in fact you don’t have to suffer… He was talking about this mindset of people believing if they are not suffering they are not being productif. This guy managed to get 3 phd’s at the age of 29 which is impossible for most people. Some even believe he faked it, turns out he explains that he absolutely loved the work he was doing. Same as Steve Jobs said, if you dont love what you are doing, you might give up.. I understand what Goggins is saying but it is factually not true. This Mr Aberkane is an example. In order to grow you don’t always have to suffer.
“A successful man is one who can lay a firm foundation with the bricks that other throw at him.”
David Brinkley
2020 is my year for teen powerlifting and hope to hold some records real soon nothing can stop me
I wanna become a Marine and soon I’ll go to bootcamp but I’ve realized how sensitive I am.. I hate being this way & I really wanna become mentally stronger!
I’m 12 years old.. from today I won’t give a damn what they say. Confidence, strength, independence, self love! That’s what I need. And I’ll have it. Because nothing is impossible. Who cares if someone doesn’t like me! I’m gonna go to high school and be ME. Be me and no one else. I’ll do what I want and say what I want. I’ll wear whatever i want. I’ll be strong. And not care..
Stop hating yourself for what you are not and start loving it for what you are
After this video I made a sticky note that says “You’re not even at 40%! Try harder!”. It’s a great motivational booster.
Hold on. You should feel however you want to feel if you get a call about your mom dying. Mental toughness isn’t about being a sociopath.
Here The Truth About Mental Toughness
https://www.entirestrength.com/the-truth-about-mental-toughness/
I try to rearrange my to do list when it gets hard and I fail so it’s easier to do and I still get everything done but this is saying to just stick with it. It’s literally the hardest thing to get yourself out of that situation where your mind does not want to do it, I’ve been in that position many times and failed many times. It’s like a battle between my lazy side and my strong side all of the time. But my strong side does not want to give up trying this time.
I stopped doing what I love and what I was good at… I’m coming back to the game
I’m going to pass rasp, its going to be hard but I will use fear to drive me
This mentality combined with “mini habits” shaped me.
Uncomfortable every day.
Thank you sir for your priceless wisdom.It’s a really very good use of you tube to share information.Again,thanks a lot sir.
LAST 5 MILES!!!!! OF 26.2
Hands down!!!!!!!
because i have not learned to embrace suffering!!!
BUT I WILL!!
I will and believe I can become anything I want to be I will be who I want to be I will make it happen and work for what I want and fight through the struggles faced to get where I want ❤️
Where is the text version of this? I want to print this out, someone please help me.
THis video soooo describes me. Im going to get better, I HAVE TO GET BETTER… In jesus name.
I love hardship because I know it’s making me stronger erday
I have hard time saying NO and I have more pity toward others and myself how to beat it?
I like the part with intervals:D:D I think exactly the same!
This was very helpful Sage! Had a run yesterday and discovered I need to work on my mental game just as much as my physical training. Will definitely try these tips out next go.
This guy is such a little bitch. He looks like he’s always on the verge of crying. He joined the Military, got his assed kicked, cried for three years straight and came out the other side with a sour face and screaming about how you should follow your dreams with force. Absolutely boring, and just not interesting.
you have to run not for just u want to run because of when your mom need help u can run and help her.
put my self in worst situation for human possible life
being uncomfortable is to get success in life
u can easily get success in if u have ability to suffer.
Didn’t mention his refusal to go out combat operations, or the fact he was just a trident chaser and dev didn’t want him.
YouTube is annoying literally every channel is talking about how they keep getting copyrighted.
I love running so much, but I deal with anxiety in racing. Its not always a big deal, I love racing, but I’m also not super conpetitive and would rather be doing a long run with friends. I am also sometimes challeneged by making easy days truly easy, but I have been getting better at that.
I fucking sick pain and success. But most importantly I’m going after it as a Kamikaze
Idk… I coped fine when my parents and siblings died in a span of 18 months, but I still can’t make myself go for a run.
I personally enjoy how you got these awesome people doing the voice-overs for the information now. But you do kill it
Don’t forget your intestine is your second brain. If you don’t have a healthy lifestyle, this will be hard to achieve.
Working 40 hours a week at my day job and 40-60 on my side hustle has made me bitter and angry towards my friends and family. How do I combat this during my suffering rite of passage? Everyone thinks I am an asshole because I don’t tolerate excuses lol
What if things you like to do actually make you happy should you go to suffer to get happy is it worth the suffer and getting what you want without the suffer that’s my question???
There two types of people in the world:
1) Once who say I don’t want to feel miserable anymore and they start taking action.
2) Once who say I don’t want to feel miserable anymore and still continue living miserable.
Both take a lot of energy out of you, but the once who overcome the hump are the once who have more resilience.
Resilience can be achieved with a growth mindset and not a fixed mindset. Don’t give up bc you gonna die eventually.
Dang knowing YouTube I’m suprised this video is monetized but it spreads a good message
Mental: As someone who is still a little wet behind the ears when it comes to running my biggest mental challenge is a fear when crossing into uncharted territory, new distances, new intensities, new weekly volume can I handle it, am I ready for this new challenge? As I gradually expand my map previously terrifying distances are now starting to loose their fear factor. I guess lack of experience is my biggest hurdle for now.
Happiness is not a destination, it’s a byproduct of a journey built on personal responsibility and accountability. Otherwise you’re just in for hedonism.
Mental toughness is ez all you do is let go or you get the opposite mental tough
This is spot on. I’ve always lived by the quote “the harder you are on yourself, the easier life will be you. The easier you are on yourself, the harder life will be on you”
-Zig Ziglar
I don’t like the rule that says we must suffer to grow. I think it’s unfair and if I could be God, I would change that rule.
This is one of the sport video best I’ve never seen. Thanks a Lot my friend!
I’m tired of hired babykillers telling us how to be. GTFO. He tells you in the first minute he’s “as dumb as shit”.

All I got out of this was be honest about your problems and take extreme suffering to fix most of the problems.
Such an awesome video! Inspired me to shoot a video for my friend who’s a survivor. Great job on this one!
A++ on the intro!! Total grade of 140%, 40 bous points for bringing us joy during this social distancing era❗️ You are amazing THANK YOU
I just love how random he is. Playing bass, drinking beer, and wearing a cool, random shirt. It just really shows who he is as a person not just as a coach.
Okay Sage has clearly tried this on other parts of his body haha
i doubt you can run 1km…if anyone wants to run longer and be fit they need to forget the pain and say that the pain is fun and it does not hurt.. your saying the total opposite which will program a humans brain to be limited.
Hey Everyone, I want Seth to get Live Stream back, please fillout this Questionnaire, I will forward to Google. https://forms.gle/gE1uU6sWuaT5h77X8
Hi Sage,
First of all, many thanks for so many good tips on running! I came across your channel a few days ago and I am loving it! I am also having a laugh at the random sections of your very own humour!!!
Best, W
10 minutes before I’m about to race I always regret being a distance runner, and wish I could be a sprinter, so I don’t have to deal with any pain.
and i thought i was the only one hating running when starting it…and lovin it only when i m done! that really comforted me! thumps up!
Thank you needed to hear this…feel like I need more confidence in myself when I’m running…been running for 11 years and right now feels likes the toughest…going to keep pushing myself
Such an insightful video. Always hated running and couldn’t understand why people do it voluntarily. Now that I’m starting to learn to run, it’s nice to know advanced runners also potentially hate running
I love Kayla’s story it’s inspiring to say the least. Unfortunately, I know to a degree what she is going through I crushed a disc in my lumbar while power-lifting and have now had 10 spinal surgeries and nerve damage that effects my legs and feet. Pain has to become your friend and you have to learn to embrace it rather than fear it. I have learned to do this and now when I reach those painful minutes in a race/workout, I just smile and dig deeper. I think this is what is meant by “what want kill you, will make you stronger!”. I love your channel and get a lot out of all the “Sage” advice. Keep up the great work and run strong.
It’s about self control, learning to push yourself outside of the comfort zone, and focus. Meditate, take cold showers etc. When you push yourself out of your comfort zone in everyday life, it transfers to running, and vice versa.
THIS IS MY MOST FAVORITE TRAINING TALK EVER. Has helped me push through my own pain.
Thanks for this vid, Sage! Watched it last night and took 5+ minutes off my PR on a local 10 mile loop. Kept, “this is going to suck” in my head and kept pushing. I appreciate the vids!
Im 21 years old. 3 months ago I weighed 286.8 pounds. Im down to 254 so far. Still have 80 more to lose. This video gives me motivation to work until I drop at the gym and to eat strong healthy foods! I will not stop!
Be ferocious like the tiger
Stop at nothing
Thanks for the vid sage
What advice would you give for leading a race and pushing the pace to get a pr
So good to know that others have negative thoughts while running. I am struggling right now and this will really help me.
Every second you waste watching a David Goggins video is a second you could be using to get after it.
Put down the phone now and GET AFTER IT
One of your best videos Sage! This will be added to watchlist! Thanks so much!!!
“it doesn’t work for other parts of your body” hahaahaaahaaa
“This is really going to suck” works very well for me also…
But I say it out loud and repeat it a few times to really make it stick:)
good instructions, super! mental training is important, thx
well if it works on your hand, it (should) work on other parts too!!! right on
What are your favorite running shoes for specific distances and workouts?
Your best training talk so far. Thanks for sharing, Sage!:)
The way I stay motivated to run is to: remove all competing motivations. So for example, I run during my break at work. why?? Because, I have nothing else motivating me to do something else, aka, I have nothing else to do. Running on my break is the most desirable option of the options to choose from.
Just look at prisoners, they have nothing else to do beside workout. Sure, there’s other motivating factors like trying to impress others ect. But if they all had WiFi it might be a different story.
So the moral of the story is to be sent to prison and come out qualified for Boston. But seriously a lack of a options really makes remaining options more ‘enticing’
Beer and running is a day of joy and fun, we live to know life, we run to live life,
le soleil sourit au coureur, les yeux sur la route et le coeur content
bravo pour les videos
i love your honesty…every run sucks…
and love the beer to make things comfortable
Can I use some of your footage you have here for one video on my YouTube channel?
After just watching your post-race interview with Bryon Powell, you were the awesome example of digging out of a mental hole at TNF50! Awesome job! You’ve got to be one of the most humble pro athletes out there, but your CR’s and PR’s in your training show how much work you put in.
291 people dislike??? lmao..those are the weak minded.the cowards..the quitters
Nice shout out to Kayla. One of the things I think about each time I run, is a friend with MS. I give my utmost heartfelt respect to anyone who deals with that deck of cards.
Great video, Sage. And best of luck on the 6th, I’ll will be rooting for you!
If you would discuss overtraining in depth, that would be awesome. How to recover from it, how to avoid it, etc.
Great talk Sage! Something I do to prepare for my ultras are positive splits. I run a 16 mile loop trail from time to time. I’ll push hard on the first half of the work out (first loop or couple loops) to try and exhaust myself then push through on the second half of the workout. This helps me cause it simulates what I feel late in a race. Trains my body and my mind to deal with certain pains and thoughts.
subject submission: avoid cramps on long races. and going along with cramps on long races
I agree 100% training your brain is just as important as training your body. Thank you for sharing this and looking forward to your future videos.
Excellent video Sage, great topic (I’m struggling to stay motivated at the moment)
What was the Bass intro? it sounded familiar…
Also, What is your opinion on shuttle runs (beep tests)? Are they a good measure of fitness, does the constant stopping adversely affect performance?
Sugar pills is not placebo. Sugar has a strong effect on the body. I never understood that example. Some people are lacking in sugar(low carbers).
Grow bigger, grow bigger, grow bigger… haha. That’s what she said. jk Great talk once again Sage! Keep up the great work and good luck at TNF.
Great video many thanks Sage. This is really helpful to me as an improving runner, especially your thoughts on the acceptance of pain!!
You have to suffer to grow!!! On the otherside is greatness. The best thing that ever happened to me was no one helped me. #goggins
Junder J Or maybe it’s just a damn opinion that you don’t agree with. Fine, disagree with it. You’re not going to be swayed, nor am I. I’m cool with that. You do you and I’ll do me.
Can you make a video about alternatives of altitude training. I live in Ohio and there isn’t high elevation. And does the altitude mask work properly?
