Yiannis Kouros from Greece, was an ultra marathon runner that still holds multiple records (since the 80s) for 1,000 mile, 1,000 km and more. It's mind blowing.
"The Rarámuri or Tarahumara is a group of indigenous people of the Americas living in the state of Chihuahua in Mexico. They are renowned for their long-distance running ability." 🙌🏾🤙🏾✌🏽great show.. go get lost on a walk or jog somewhere soon…
I’m 40 and have just got into it’s running. It works well with martial arts because it takes a big mental push to get through it.
Having done 100 miles both on track and trails – he is so right about the difference! The mental piece is huge – on track you can (and should) distract yourself and become disconnected and go on auto-pilot, otherwise everything will hurt. On trails, you have to stay somewhat present and focused on footing otherwise you'll face plant – but it provides distraction from the pain and keeps you going. Personally, the monotony of track kills me, and I don't think I'll ever do that again…
I used to be a pretty good trail runner. I can say that there is almost no greater feeling than the feeling you have when you can run up a mountain or run 40 miles through the mountains and not feel tired. You start to feel like an animal, such as a deer. I still do it, but not as much as I used to….try it!
