    One Andy Raynor. There’s only one Andy Raynor. Get in mate. Thoroughly deserved and mundanely predictable. 😂. Never in doubt. Fantastic run and great execution. Absolutely love seeing you smash it. How many eggs did you hatch? 😉🤣. See you soon for a debrief.

    Amazing well done. Manchester was my 9th this weekend and also the first one I’ve ran “well”. Great to see when the training pays off

    Congratulations - great time. 💪🏻
    I also ran a new PB yesterday. 2:59:37 so i broke 3h for the first time. 🎉
    You're an inspiration, keep up the good work.

  • @JackD87
    @JackD87 Год назад +6

    Few minutes in and course it struck me that you did the majority of this pretty much solo! Makes it all the more impressive. That tactic of easing in over the first three miles is clearly a winner for you 🎉

  • @DevRunner
    @DevRunner Год назад +2

    Rock and Roll Andy! I couldn't be happier for you! You attacked every workout and took those easy days easy - you trained SMART! And wow did it pay off! True inspiration for all of us pushing our limits! I can't wait for the details! Keep pushing my friend!

    Hehe Andy, what a day, what a race, what a big relief to finally, finally run a marathon like it is supposed to be done.....this has been the single most important step in learning the art of marathoning. In every marathon to come you can remember this run and fuel from it.
    Now it is time to recover, choose the right course for the autumn and continue the journey
    congratulations for a huge race...i did not know, that the course was that lonely with running alone making it a lot harder to succeed.....i am so happy for you

  • @TimGrose
    @TimGrose Год назад +2

    Well done Andy. As you say, great to execute exactly what you wanted to do and for that to give such a big PB and indeed blow away a few demons at the event. It did strike me in the footage how lonely a race that was you. Hopefully next time you can get in a big city race and benefit from more runners around you. But huge positives to take forwards.

  • @chrisbull845
    @chrisbull845 Год назад

    Amazing work Andy! I saw your time on the app right after finishing it myself and knew you would do well, but blimey!
    Mine didn't go as good 😂. I always aim for a sub 4 in any marathon I do and last year at Newport I did it easily enough but yesterday I struggled and despite feeling better at the bridge, I did 4.03 and was quite gutted to be just outside my target.
    Something went wrong for me though and I don't know what, but I found it so hard going after a great first 16 miles where i was sensible and comfortably on pace, fuelling right and feeling good etc, not to mention enjoying the superb weather for it! No excuses - just wasn't my day I think!
    I am SO happy for you though - watching your training blocks here says to me you absolutely deserve your glory and the joy you show in this vlog. Brilliant stuff!

  • @Alecmcq
    @Alecmcq Год назад +7

    Fantastic, Andy, very well done. Now, I did very similar splits during my half marathon in Canberra yesterday. However, my splits were for kilometres and not miles! 😂😂😂 I think you’re a bit quicker than me! Proud of you, mate. You did yourself, your coach and your training proud!

  • @andycharles1332
    @andycharles1332 Год назад +3

  • @markmckeever3097
    @markmckeever3097 Год назад

    Awesome Andy. Great to see you happy with the whole race. Keeping your powder dry and heartrate down at the beginning then negative splitting the 2nd 10 mile block.
    (Something I need to remember for London on Sunday).
    I am looking forward to the in-depth review and how you felt the fueling went, especially those last few miles.
    Coach Will will be putting plenty more "beast mode" sessions in for your next block! 😅
    Congratulations on a great time, the reward for all your hard work.

    Was great to chat and run the first load of miles with you before you dropped the hammer! Always nice to see another runner my size ripping it up! Good clip of us on the bridge dwarfing everyone else🤣

  • @mikefaber3567
    @mikefaber3567 Год назад

    That's an amazing race. It looks like everything you hoped it would be. Unfortunately my marathon was pretty much the opposite. Thought my training was great better than in past ones. Slept good. Felt great at the start but just blew up 1/2 way. The only thing I could think was we had an unusual warm day it ended up at 80 plus degrees by the end. I live in Ohio in the states that's a big shock but I thought I would be fine. I'm really disappointed but happy you got your goal !

    That's a great stepping board to what you are truly capable of Andy.
    Your 10k time equates to at least mid 2:30's.
    I think Berlin this year should be your target to carry forward this exceptional training block.
    You were pushing Mr Welsh Runner to his max on your workouts together so you can't be 10 minutes behind Matt's pb .
