Following all the great track and field content on YouTube can be quite an undertaking. We watch through as much as we can throughout the week to highlight what particularly stood out to us.
Should there be additional video content you believe should be on our regular rotation, please tell us about it here in the Wind Aided forum. Also, make sure to check out all the great channels posted to our channel glossary and maybe you will find something new to add to your feed!
Paul Chelimo
Paul Chelimo shares a “Day In The Life”. Worth a watch with clips and chatter about a workout and an intimate look at his home, home life with cute interactions with his daughter.
Allie Ostrander
Allie Ostrander is nervous about her first tempo run in a long while. She ends up feeling amazing and keeps upping the pace over 4 miles. Allie welcomes fan input on her form. She shares that she’s “having huge racing and crushing workout withdawals” and that this tempo run scratched the itch a little bit. Allie finishes this 8 minute video with her thoughts on what she loves best about running.
Nick Symmonds
Nick Symmonds never runs out of entertaining ideas. Here he recruits a bunch of guys to see if they can lift a car off the ground. How many do you people do you think it’ll require? Wait til the end to see what it takes (and note what happens when the first female is added to the effort….just saying).
Sean Donnelly | Grip & Rip Athletic Co
The hammer throw is super cool. If you don’t already have a ton of respect for the skills of hammer throwers check this slow mo analysis by Sean Donnelly of a throw by a person he is coaching. For a thrower this video is very informative. For a regular fan it’s just plain impressive.
The Athlete Special
Spencer goes public with his goal for this season…a sub 3:37 1500…which is what is required to get an auto-entry into the USA Championship meet in late June. This “episode 1 toward the 3:37 goal” includes a road workout and a track workout with fun cameos from Allie Ostrander.
FloTrack
There’s nothing quite like an epic battle between 8 year olds. Check out this 800m race. They’re not fooling around with their 5:20 mile pace. The two leaders dug deep over the last lap for a very close finish.
