  • #83: Kipchoge’s Top Running Tips for Athletes of All Levels

    #83: Kipchoge’s Top Running Tips for Athletes of All Levels
    May 21 2024
    There is no greater runner and ambassador for the sport of running than Eliud Kipchoge. We discuss Kipchoge's routines, top running tips and advice for athletes of all levels to improve. This episode is not available in podcast format, and can only be found on my YouTube channel in video format. The reason is that this episode is subtitled for clarity and also includes lots of visuals, photos, videos, screenshots.

    CLICK HERE TO WATCH THIS FULL CONVERSATION: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fktx7qLbXDc

    This conversation was recorded in Tokyo, after we both ran the Tokyo Marathon. We dive deeper into Kipchoge’s philosophies, routines and advice for non-elite athletes to improve.

    I am really excited about this conversation and we covered several topics I haven’t heard him talk about in other interviews.


    This was my 3rd time meeting with Eliud. I’ve put together a 30 page PDF with a summary from both conversations, lessons, takeaways, favorite quotes and a full transcript. This E-book can be downloaded for free at Extramilest.com/kipchoge.

    I can’t wait to hear your thoughts about this conversation in the comments HERE on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fktx7qLbXDc

Now I actually enjoy running

I used to tell myself I enjoyed running but would only ever train short distances for a few months at a time and have big long breaks between. I was recommended this podcast and it has transformed my understanding and enjoyment of running.

There is a fantastic variation of runners and experts from all abilities and walks of life. this podcast is good enough to binge-listen and not ever get bored.
