🤦🏼♂️Excellent video!!! I hold my hand up 🙋🏼♂️ and apologise. It was my fault Meg missed the start!! Chatting away and then all of a sudden you were off. Massive apologies Ben, great to talk to you there and looking forward to your next videos. You’re such an inspiration. 👍🏻
@@BenIsRunning I’m glad it all turned out well. I felt awful that we’d missed the start!!! 😳 My own running has come on leaps and bounds and it’s all thanks to you and your inspiration. The work you do is amazing and you’re both so great to talk to!!! That good we miss the start!!! 🤦🏼♂️
Incredibly run Ben. You looked really strong on your finish. Messy Happy give you some props on your form in his Wednesday video too. Also you are getting noticed by a lot of running companies and getting a lot of perks. Very cool! Glad to be apart of the journey in watching you get faster. Enjoyed the video.
Great work Ben, your channel is going from strength to strength. Great to see companies and brands getting behind your work! Oh, and to take over a minute of your 10k when you’re running near to 30 mins is epic, respect!
Well done and congrats with your journey , you're such an inspiration 🧡, hit a 1km PB today 3:30 , running inspires me to get out my comfort zones, because like elluid says no human is limited , well done and keep it up for your great content ❤️🏃
Excellent work Ben. Something I never did was break 31. PB is 31:05. Although I ran a 15k in 46:59 which is a hair slower pace wise, but probably a better race than my 10k PB. Soon you'll be running 29, no doubt. amazing.
Fantastic! That magical sub 30 is really just a matter of time. Congrats and good luck for Boston! P.s. im really glad I found your channel early on, it's been great to watch your progress!
Nice one on the 10K! Lugging TWO suitcases though? hahahahah. That's crazy. Can't wait to see your videos from Boston. Really enjoying your content. Whoever returned your wallet is a legend. Gives me hope for the world. I love that Puma, Asics, and Pro Direct are reaching out to you to work with them. Nice to see a really decent dude being recognized in the industry.
Awesome video and PB, looking forward to the Boston vlogs. Don’t know how you will have enough time to keep up your training, at least your legs will be fresh once you get back into it lol.
When you get a Cole and Ben vid at the same time👌🏼, cracking stuff mate you must be so excited for your marathon your times are flying down, awesome work!👍🏼👍🏼
Glad you liked my adopted hometown of Boston. If you saw the old state house, you saw where I work (the big glass skyscaper on the other side of the road).
You smashed that 10k Ben 😃 I really felt for you when you lost your wallet 😔 your channel is going from strength to strength, so many exciting trips, great stuff 👍
been there. years ago I was taking the Heathrow Express train from central London to the airport. I was pulling my suitcase with my briefcase on top. the train doors shut with me on the train and my bags on the platform. the door would not open. my wallet, passport, everything was in my briefcase. I had the train worker call back to the platform to have security get my bags. being from NYC, I assumed everything was lost. unbelievably I made a roundtrip to/from the airport, security handed me my bags and I returned to the airport and made my flight. yes its drama...
So damn excited for you. You deserve all the opportunities coming your way. Well done on the 10k PB. I bet you also set a record for fastest departure after a race. If you have a chance, it will be really useful if you could do a video reflecting on your training so far. It's clear that double threshold days are improving your speed. How are your long runs coming along- have you noticed an improvement over the block. And what are your plans for the final long run sessions and your taper?
Ps: perhaps even a series reflecting on your training block. Lessons learned and tips. It's the type of content that's evergreen cause people are always searching for training plans and tips.
brilliant video as always mate , how long / distance and how long before the race start is your warm up ? maybe you could do a video on warm ups lol thank you
Missed the roundabout your wallet but show that there is still a lot of honest people about.I hope the person who handed it in has good luck in their life
Did you manage to squeeze a shower in somewhere between the race and the flight? I imagine a fella could work up quite a sweat after smashing out such a sprightly 10km.
@@BenIsRunning - Phew. No doubt strict shower timings also added to the logistical headaches of the day. My apologies for calling your cleanliness into question.
Phenomenal buddy, unreal progress during this block!! Loved the insta stories too during Boston, can’t wait for those vlogs too! 💪💪 let’s go buddy!
Thanks Andy!!! Let’s gooo
Ayee thanks for the support at the finish line, insane effort from you 🏁 👊🏻
No worries bro! Love to see you back at it. Most stylish runner in Essex 🤙🏼

Wow man, you’re just an incredible runner! Blows my mind. Enjoy following your journey. I def think you gonna go sub 2:30 in Copenhagen!
And you found your wallet!! I think that probably felt better than the pb!

Hi Ben, just started watching you content and subscribed. That's a bonkers 10k time, Good work buddy👌🏃
Thanks Simon! Welcome to the channel
You are killing it and nice to know there are good people out there to turn in your wallet. Enjoy the journey!!!
Yes thankfully I got it back and will all the contents :)
Well done Ben! Also, saw your D-Robe which looked mega comfortable and bought one too, it's flippin amazing!!!
Great to hear! It’s incredibly comfortable
Am happy for hitting your PB in 10k.
Am also preparing to make a PB
In 5k on track during National track and field Field championship here in Uganda
Amazing!
Awesome video and PB, looking forward to the Boston vlogs. Don’t know how you will have enough time to keep up your training, at least your legs will be fresh once you get back into it lol.
Yeah training will take a little bit of a hit but hopefully the hard work is done :)

Good Job on your 10km 👌🏻
Thanks 🦒
I was there in Boston to do the Marathon Ben, was kinda surreal seeing you on my plane home to LHR too 😀
I love how almost everyone’s wearing Alphaflys 😂. I’m thinking of buying a pair with the Ekiden color way that you have
They certainly help when you start to fatigue
Glad you liked my adopted hometown of Boston. If you saw the old state house, you saw where I work (the big glass skyscaper on the other side of the road).
Oh nice! Boston was incredible! Vlogs out in the next few days
Enjoying your you tube channel
Thanks Gordon
Great running, sub 30 next ;)
You smashed that 10k Ben 😃 I really felt for you when you lost your wallet 😔 your channel is going from strength to strength, so many exciting trips, great stuff 👍
Thank you Steve! It wasn’t my finest moment but luckly new exactly where I’d dropped it
Whoever handed your wallet into lost property is a real legend. That could have been a real nightmare scenario, good luck for Boston.
They certainly are!
Raking it to get home lol. Awesome going mate, you really are the man.
I commend you thats real talent
the fastest ive ever ran 10k is 57min.
and I gave it my all💯
Well done bro you smash it 15:28 each one 30:55 now you need to go sub 14:50 or 14:40 for 5k then eventually sub 30 for 10k 🔥🔥🔥💪🏼
Wow! You ran that faster than I run my 5K!
Loving the videos man! No hate but the pronunciation of “Puma” in America vs. the UK cracks me up! Haha
Yeah there’s a pretty big difference! The British inside me just cant say poooma 💩
@@BenIsRunning well when you still you spell it that way…I see your point😂
Congrats man!

my heart skipped a beat when u said that u lost your wallet! ehat a relief you got it!! beautiful video m8

Thank you for the feedback and yes that sounds like a great video to do post marathon maybe :) thanks for the idea
Dude, You're really fit. You gotta shoot for a 2:24 marathon. It's well within your wheelhouse.
Thanks Spencer
Just thinking about what you had to fit in with the time restrictions is stressing me and I didn't have to do it.
brilliant video as always mate , how long / distance and how long before the race start is your warm up ? maybe you could do a video on warm ups lol thank you

You need to get yourself in some of the top 10k road races and the Highgate 10,000m.
All those to look forward too
I have to confess i cheated and looked up results, amazing run, very happy for you,
Thanks Jen 😂
What is aroud you arm🤔
It’s a hr monitor :)
Metaspeed 2 🤔
Almost
Ah, metaspeed+ it is. Streakfly takumi sen esque. They don't really do it for me 😅
Man how do you do so many races so regularly!
Sub 15 5k absolutely doable any plans?
For sure! After the marathon I’ll be jumping into track season
I just did a sub 45 mins 10K run, and I thought I was flying.
Ben, please make the boston marathon a series of vids i beg not one big vid.
Noted there will be at least 2/3 :)

Wasn’t Boston Marathoning a few ago ago?
