Hey, I'm Tom! I'm an athlete and nature and people lover obsessed with promoting outdoor exposure to create healthier people and a healthier planet.
I love making modern environmentalism accessible to everyone (you don't have to chain yourself to a bulldozer) and believe it all starts with playing outdoors and feeling good! I have become an expert in finding motivation in the toughest situations and believe strongly that absolutely anyone can do absolutely anything - a powerful way to feel!
I am a sponsored athlete with SALOMON, LeBent, SMITH Optics and Single O and work Mon-Fri as Head of Operations & Experience at ocean cleanup group Seabin fighting to turn the tap off on plastic pollution in our waterways.
It's my life's work to help others find the tools they need to have a powerful life while doing what they can to make the planet a little bit better everyday and have fun while doing it!

RETURN TO RUN?
Last vlog of the year! Thanks so much for coming on this journey with me and hope you had a great Christmas and your 2025 is incredible.
In this vlog I ask the question of my physio and bone specialist 'can I return to running?', finally see the bone doc after a 3 month wait time and start to share some absolutely MASSIVE news in my world for early 2025.
Merry Christmas, HNY and see you next Friday in 2025!
Xx Tom

CONFIDENCE

Hey thanks so much for dropping by for another vlog. This one is all about confidence, how to build it, feel it and how I use strength training to grow mine. It's simple, anyone can do it and for me it's the single most important part of my running. Watch the vlog to find out exactly why and hope you're going well.

WHY THOUGH

Why bike when you can run? I have been spending a lot of time on the bike and wanted to give my thoughts on how it works alongside your running. Just remember it's not running, obviously.

NO STONE UNTURNED
Просмотров 1922 месяца назад
Come along to get poked, prodded and collapse during a strength test at the physio all in the name of leaving no stone unturned on my healing journey from femoral bone stress. In this vlog I lose everything I value about my body but the lessons learnt along the way give me everything I need to keep the fire burning as I tick off steps towards my goal of returning to run in nature. Want to hear ...
BONE STRESS
Просмотров 1322 месяца назад
Yep, we've got a challenge on our hands (or should I say in my femur) but I'm up for it! After my MRI confirming a grade 3 bones stress injury in my left femur I have fallen apart, put myself back together and am deep in the first steps of finding answers so that this does not happen again. Come along as I explain who I'm seeing, why I am seeing them and what we are doing as our first steps tow...
BROKEN FEMUR?
Просмотров 2313 месяца назад
I wish this was click bait but it's not. This week I received news of my next challenge which will be one of the biggest of my life. It took me a while and a really tough day out on the bike to realise it but I know now I'm up for it! Being up for it is only the first step but it's the most important and I'm keen to go on this really scary journey with you as we roll with the punches of running...
50KMS ONE ERROR - PILLIGA ULTRA
Просмотров 3193 месяца назад
Sometimes you do 99% of things perfectly and depending on what the 1% is it has the potential to derail all of your hard work. I wanted this win bad but even before that a health battle before had me doubting if I would even make it to this really important event that's been 3 years in the making. A few days spent with wild people in wild nature, pushing ourselves to the limit in the name of en...
AM I BROKEN?
Просмотров 2284 месяца назад
Have you ever asked yourself the question AM I BROKEN? I'm sure you probably have and yes it sucks but it doesn't have to if we chat it out, learn what we can and move onto the next challenge. This vlog took a turn from wanting to talk about the technicalities of injuries which we don't often do to me wondering, live on camera if I had broken myself mentally. So keen to hear what you think of t...
24 HOUR RACE
Просмотров 2014 месяца назад
I took on IRONWOOD Ultra, a 24 hour team race with the RUNLAB crew and I had a pretty cooked leg going into it. What could go wrong? I'll take you along for the ride during the actual race as we try to run as many 7km tough trail loops as we can in a 24 hour period and then I'll show you the day after how I recover and get back into daily life post-hard-run. Enjoy and thanks for watching! Xx To...
FASTEST KNOWN CARNAGE!
Просмотров 1554 месяца назад
There will be blood! The plan was to run the FKT (Fastest Known time) of Lockley's Pylon, a popular 6km out and back in The Blue Mountains of NSW, Australia but things did NOT go to plan! What did go to plan is running with a new mate, Kev, doing a very hard thing made harder by gail force, damaging winds and rain and leaving the mountains with even more respect for them and what my body and mi...
THE GLOBAL SMITH CAMPAIGN

I was lucky enough to be invited onto a SMITH campaign shot in Melbourne the other day so I thought why not take you along for the ride! The shoot was incredible and as I was in my old neighbourhood I decided to catch up with my family, a few of the local legends and explore some of the running routes I grew up on for a big nostalgia hit. A great campaign to be a part of thanks to SMITH and an ...
THIS SUCKS

THIS SUCKS! Not my job (obviously after watching this vlog) but Seabins! Seabin are an ocean cleanup group working as an upstream solution to the massive problem of plastic pollution in our waterways. Did you know that the data gathered by Seabin is a world-first and that there is no-one out there filling the knowledge gap because we're out here 24/7, 365 days a year monitoring our waterways fo...
NOT a (SALOMON S/LAB Pulsar 3) shoe review
Просмотров 1,6 тыс.6 месяцев назад
I'm not good at them and I'm also not very interested in all the tech specs on the latest running shoes so this is my (not) shoe review of the hugely anticipated SALOMON S/LAB Pulsar 3. Why make a vlog about a shoe if you don't like shoe reviews? The previous version of this shoe blew my mind unlike any other shoe in recent memory but it was lacking one seriously needed update. Did SALOMON make...

Clip #2 for excitement - Channelling the Golden Trail Series
@@viktorholmberg786 yeh it’s a magic clip hey! Cant beat a flowy, action-packed follow cam on a coastal trail. Was hard to not make that number 1! Hope to see you at TGS next year. The Coastal Ascent is the oneeeeee!
I think I had dropped you just before that shot in clip 4! Epic spot
@@matthewnorman8831 absolutely false about dropping me but cute comment.
Great recovery video
@@campbellmackintosh820 thanks Campbell and glad you found something in there. Just my personal journey but often we have things in common!
Damn Tom so sorry to hear this. Have been dealt some tough cards recently. Fingers crossed you can get to the bottom of what’s happening. Sounds like you’ve assembled a crack team for it. Sending love from Melb ❤
@@rob_stilwell thanks man! I hope I got across in the vlog how much I love this, all of this. Appreciate the love and miss you!
🤗🌟🤗
@@sandrah1498 💘
Thank you 🙏🏾 your video was awesome as I am mid 40’s kinda recently stepping up from massive walks to running as well and have pain in the big toe foot joint bits. Your info helped understand it. The final few minutes of your video is great and inspirational and helpful to me and I’m sure many others 😁🤘🏿
@@JohnboyFoz awesome man! Dont take my advice as professional though and get your toe checked if you feel you need to. We’re all unique, even our ouchies and it’s such a great way to learn about yourself. Awesome comment man and stoked you have started running!
Thanks Tom for everything you do for the stuff that matters and this sport. I look forward to meeting again down the track 🙂
@@georgeknight6790 right back at ya man. Amazing run and so great to meet you and spend time out there with ya. Keep charging! 🤘🏻
Ahhhhh beautiful
@@bonniebrady9876 so’s ur face
@@tombatrouney🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hectic! 😮
@@matthewbaker2793 yep! How good is livin!
Maaaate what a body mind experience running can be! Thanks for being vulnerable and sharing it with the world Tom. Peace. ☺️
@@benhamilton1922 sure can man. No worries and thanks for watching you legend.
💪❤💪
@@sandrah1498 ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Yeah TB. 30ks of literal ups and downs. Thanks for sharing the inner workings of the mind and encouraging others to do so too.
@@tiabool9868 YEH TB! Thanks for being you and for sharing adventures with me!
How good is that internet speed to load the video 🎉
@@bonniebrady9876 so good! Thank you for teaching me the ins and outs of the interwebs. Hey everyone if you ever want to post something on IG, send an email or maybe work from home just send Bonnie a message and ask her if you can use some of the internet because she has it all.
Good video. You can't get good weather every day.
@@Shevock thanks man! True and it def made for an interesting video carnage and all. 💃
You can’t beat the sound of the cowbells @ a trail race 👏🏻
@@bonniebrady9876 100% 💘
Amazing video ! Justone question : how did you size it ? Did you size up a little bit from your normal size ?
@@kendricklamar3956 thanks man! I actually tried my usual size and ended up sizing down! Have never done that before and all other SALOMON athletes use their normal size I just felt I needed to. Very happy with the size I went for and as they are a short distance shoe going a size down worked for me. I always size up in all my other shoes for longer races/ runs. So they are true to size is the short answer haha.
My foot is 28.5cm long. Do you think I should go with a one size up or more? I’m usually going with 2 sizes up so I get 1cm more than my foot
@@dominikseljan3043 hey! I just measured my foot and I’m exactly the same. I usually wear a size UK12.5 in ALL SALOMON but for this shoe I ended up going a full size down. Reason is that for my short distance, fast, race shoes I don’t need the extra room like I do in my longer distance ones. Toes are definitely slightly more crowded in the toe box but makes you feel very much in control of your foot placement in these shoes. Hope that helps!
Love it mateeee
@@matthardybrown thanks man! So stoked to work with you on this. Can’t wait for the next one.
Quality content Tom! And I think I need a pair of your sunnies 😎
@@benhamilton1922 thanks man! Yeh they are SO good! See the video description gown the bottom for a cheeky discount code if you are keen on any SMITHS!
awesome !
@@matthewbaker2793 thanks man! New vlog out tomorrow 3pm!
Hey Siri, message Tom Batrouney. Hey Tom, epic video. Running, ocean health and goooooood vibes. SENDD IT
@@tiabool9868 haha hey Siri, message Tia, burning love heart emoji.
Spectacular run
Did some quick boi math and this comment was made before vlog was viewed. I very much rate this behaviour because it means when you watch the vlog you can make another comment. Love you.
Great to see a video of someone just out blasting the trails without too much jargon. Enjoyed the tunes that went with it 👍
Best comment ever! Yeh like I said in the video techy shoe reviews ain't me. I give my thoughts on them but yeh it's more about BLASTING! Thanks for the comment man and glad you enjoyed.
Energy Foam doesn't last long unfortunately.
Hey! I haven't noticed but also think foam is the least important part of a trail shoe. For me it's all about grip, longevity and stability. Also comfort which I know the foam plays a part in but in terms of foam for performance it's not a big one for me on the trails. Hope you liked the clip though!
Does it help if I comment more than once?
Sort of helps. Sort of trolls. Helps though.
the running footage was incredible!
Thanks so much! It helps when you have incredible trails nearby. Appreciate the comment and hope you're getting out there doing whatever you do!
Awesome country
VERY!
This was an epic shoe review!
Trolling is only tolerated because all comments (good and bad and troll) help grow the channel. Thank you Dan, I love you!
Awesome run footage!
Thanks! Got alllll sorts of conditions this week but all so fun.
Woof
Love my biggest fans who are following me on multiple platforms. You make this possible, dawg.
Favourite race! Very special place.
Seriously special. So keen for next year!
LOVED this!!!
Thank you and love yew!
Awesome first video, Tom - And congrats on launching the channel! Trail running can, and will, save the world. 🏃♂💪🌏🌏☮
Thanks so much man and I totally agree!
Yeh Tom! You are such an inspiration mate and I'm stoked to see what you're keeping up to.
Thanks so much Matt. Glad to have you along for the journey and can't wait to get the next Vlog out into the world!
Stoked to see this go live Tom. You're an inspiration to us all both on the trails and in life. Can't wait for the next ep. More Bronx content plz.
Thanks Tia! Life is the best (as long as there are trails). 💘💘💘
Yeeeww! Let’s save the world 💙
Yehhhhh man! Kind of an important goal yeh? Thanks for the support brother. ❤️🔥
@@tombatrouney 100% the most important goal for humanity brother, together as a global community! Personally, now I have three kids, this feels as important as it ever has 🙏🏼
@@danprice6341 1000000%. I’m really hoping to show people that it’s about every person doing what they can, when they can and how I approach motivating myself/ others and caring for the planet. We gotta do it for the groms!
Yeahhh Tom! Heck of a day!!
YEW! Yeh man just another EPIC day on planet Earth! Thanks for the support and absolutely love working with you.
Love your work Tom. From Blaek, PRF, Seabin and now this! Love watching your journey! 🎉
Love yours team! You are SAVING THE WORLD by running a small biz all about getting people outdoors. Thank you and appreciate the support over the years.
Love the intro re LUCK! That resonates and aligns with how I think. Looking forward to vlog 2
Thanks! Yeh, I mean we know luck is a thing but you also have to acknowledge your years of doing very hard things to steer life where you hope it can go. Me too!
Love your work mate!
Thanks man. So exciting some of the videos I have in the pipeline! Love your work too.
✨⭐️
Thanks for watching!
Man this is so good! You're doing some cool things. How good is running!
Hey Rick thanks man! Appreciate the amp up on a Sunday morning. Oh and yep IT'S REALLY GOOD!
Beyond inspirational 💪👏
Thanks Stephen and so glad you liked it.
You are an inspiring man Tom, it's a privilege to know and work with you. Your passion, big ideas and care are infectious!
Thanks Nicky and right back at you!
Great job man! I was the news camo from ch9 that popped in early in this run. Inspiring stuff
Ahh hey man great to hear from you! Thanks so much for turning up and shooting the story. So appreciated. I remember you were doing your first marathon or ultra maybe the next day? How did it go????
Out of the gates too hot and collapse with cramping legs haha. Hobbled over the line @ 3hr 21. This video is so good bro congratulations again.
@@Phulak Haha happens to the best of us! Still a great time and now you know what not to do next time haha.
Onya, Booze! 👏🏻
Whoaw! Haven't heard that nickname for a while! Very misleading for a guy who doesn't really drink haha. Thanks man and glad you enjoyed the film.
love your courage!!! you are planting great seeds man!!!
Thanks Geoff, sometimes no matter how scared or doubtful you are it just takes an action to make you commit! Once it's an action it becomes a physical 'thing' and all of your defensive feelings kind of sit in the background. Appreciate the comment and hope you liked the film.
Wow, that's truly amazing! More people must watch this!
Thanks so much Haas! Glad you liked it. Share it with anyone you think might enjoy it and keep sharing the stoke. Big love!
