Believe in yourself even when no one else does. ▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️▪️Today I tested my limits in my marathon debut. Today I found out my limits were 22 miles at 2:09:55 pace before some severe abdominal cramps and a right calve strain had me walking to the finish line. Next time I'm hoping to make it farther as there are no awards handed out to people for winning 90% of a race. However, I stand by what I said before the race...and I wouldn't change a thing. #YOLO
it's the biggest trick in the run game.. go slow to go fast. it doesn't make sense until it smacks you in the face and you're like ....... wtf?
My favorite conversion , once again:2:05 marathon = 420 consecutive no rest 100m runs, 17.85 seconds each.
Performance of the week: SONDRE MOEN - EUROPEAN MARATHON RECORD🇳🇴On Sunday in Japan at the Fukuoka International Marathon, Norway’s Sondre Moen took the tape in 2.05:48 and became the first European to run a 2.05 Marathon.🇳🇴Moen’s race win and European Record is our performance of the week.🇳🇴Moen has been in fantastic shape in recent months having run a sub 28minute road 10k in September followed by a Norwegian record over Half Marathon in October in Valencia when he ran under the 1hour barrier clocking 59:48.🇳🇴He is a favourite of ours at The Kenya Experience as he completes much of his training in Iten, under the tutelage of Renato Canova, so we were delighted to see this breakthrough performance.🇳🇴The race on Sunday morning followed the planned 3’00”/km pace throughout the first 30km which was reached right on 3minute average pace. At that point pre race favourite Bedan Karoki of Kenya made a move and increased the pace into the mid 2’50’s. Moen went with him and it ended up being he, rather than the Kenyan who continued to push the pace in the latter stages of the race.🇳🇴Running the 29:16 for the 10km from 30-40 was more than enough to do irreparable damage to Karoki, who faded and was passed by Uganda’s 2012 Olympic Champion Stephen Kiprotich and Japan’s Suguru Osako in the latter stages of the race, and set Moen up for the win. The question then became how fast could the Norwegian man go, and in running the final 2.2k in 6:24 he ensured his name is now forever in the record books as the first European athlete to break the 2:06 barrier.🇳🇴Race Results: 1 Sondre Nordstad Moen (NOR) 2:05:482 Stephen Kiprotich (UGA) 2:07:103 Suguru Osako (JPN) 2:07:194 Bedan Karoki (KEN) 2:08:445 Ammanuel Mesel (ERI) 2:09:226 Daisuke Uekado (JPN) 2:09:277 Yoshiki Takenouchi (JPN) 2:10:018 Michael Githae (KEN) 2:10:469 Yuki Kawauchi (JPN) 2:10:5310 Takuya Fukatsu (JPN) 2:12:04
