I did about 370 miles in 2024. Can I shoot for 450+? Might be too much actually.

Be FAST to go FAR?

Here is a summary of the video “Fast Before Far: The Endurance Nation Outseason Program” in bullet points:

  • The “Fast Before Far” Methodology:
    • Focuses on high-intensity interval training during the off-season.
    • Builds fitness quickly and efficiently.
    • Allows for more recovery time compared to long, steady-state training.
    • Improves mental and physical capacity for hard work.
    • Provides flexibility to incorporate other training modalities like strength training and swimming.
  • Benefits of the Endurance Nation Outseason Program:
    • Structured program with clear goals and timelines.
    • Camaraderie and support from a community of athletes.
    • Opportunity to see tangible results in a short period.
    • Teaches the importance of hard work and rest.
    • Affordable and accessible to athletes of all levels.
  • Key Takeaways:
    • Traditional endurance training often prioritizes volume over intensity.
    • The “Fast Before Far” approach challenges this notion.
    • By focusing on quality over quantity, athletes can achieve significant fitness gains in a shorter timeframe.
    • The Endurance Nation Outseason Program provides a structured framework for implementing this methodology.

I am BACK and ready to GRIND

Alright boys. Let’s go get it. I have been on vacation since the end of the marathon. The vacation was too long. I miss the workouts, routine and getting better.

Alright, marathon done. I want to focus on the 2026 one and have it be in the low 5 hours. And I want to focus on getting JACKED TO THE TITS. This means Strength training, eating well and running.

For the previous phase, my target was just a runner. And I think that was great. It was as success. This gives me a lot of confidence that I can actually pull this stuff off.

Remember that workouts and effort will have a cumulative effect. You have a base, keep building on it.

My inspiration for this phase is people like Daniel Craig, Nick Bare, Starlord, Batman, etc. Build the shoulders, put on muscle, and also run.

A book is judged by it’s cover so you need to LOOK good and fit.

You can FUCKING DO IT – you ran a fucking marathon dude – NEVER FORGET you can DO IT. You are the DRONE DUDE, FINANCE BRO, etc. Let’s FUCKING GO GET IT

Remember that Zuckerberg, Bezos and everyone are getting into Weights. FUCK THOSE BILLIONAIRES. Don’t let them live a better life. It is all about EFFORT.
