About

Hi there, I’m Floris Gierman from extramilest.com. This channel is all about marathon running and about becoming a faster, healthier and happier athlete. Many athletes want to run a Sub 3 Hour Marathon, Boston Qualifier or Marathon PR, but they do not know how to accomplish this. You’ve come to the right place! I ran my first marathon in 4 hours 11 minutes and it was a miserable experience. 5 years later I ran the Boston Marathon in 2 hours 44 minutes, a PR by 87 minutes and it felt great! Over the years I’ve done a lot of research, conducted countless self-experiments, and surrounded myself with some of the brightest minds in health, fitness and endurance sports. I’ve learned how to become a faster, healthier and happier athlete. Subscribe and you’ll get a weekly videos with Strategies and Mindsets from best selling authors, world class athletes, coaches, and me, Floris Gierman. Enjoy!
