Great update! Glad you are getting to the bottom of your health concerns: as someone with rest heart rate in the low 30s I totally understand your feelings while speaking to the GP! I’m a type 1 diabetic too, so massive congrats to your sister (I think?) for finishing the race!
Nice summary Cole. It was such a weird day mainly thanks to the weather but atmosphere around the course was surreal. I was hoping for somewhere near my PB but fell 7mins short, it just wasn’t the day or course for it. It’s great to hear you’re in the Manchester Half to have another go. It will be really interesting to see how you go. I’m also doing Vitality on Sunday but they have put me in the Woman’s only wave, that’ll be fun!!! Lastly, glad to hear you’re getting a thorough MOT done and fingers crossed all goes well with the 24hr ECG.
I’m 58, my resting HR is 38 and my tested max is 186 bpm. When I go to the GP they are always concerned but ignore my notes! I had a TIA recently but luckily my consultant is an ultra running so my hr stats were OK!
Bruh this is just an L comment so when I show up on race day and beat people better than me I shouldn't be happy lol . Cole ain't trying to knock him down he's just happy regardless of fitness when you show up on that line to race nothing matters but that race and time. So silly to think he's having a knock at Scullion cos scullions knows when he trains well and puts it together he's great but still Scullion a pro and top class lad anyone would feel good bout finishing ahead. Anyway a singular race isn't that important I think your trying to deep smth that isn't there
Come on man I don’t seriously believe I’d beat Scully on a normal day. Just a small silver lining that came from a mad day. Same with Thommo. I know full well I couldn’t touch them on a normal day.
Of course you can be happy. But to me considering what Stephen Scullion is going through and his emotional video after the race it leaves a bad taste. Just because that fella says “bruh this is an L comment” doesn’t change my opinion that claiming you scalped him comes across as dickheadish.
I appreciate your point of view. It wasn’t about who I beat, more about the prestige they have. If I’d beaten an Olympic shot-putter I still would’ve called it ‘how I beat 2 Olympians’. It was just at face value, and I even reached out to Stephen after his video to check he was all good. I’ve always loved his videos and he did a bonkers workout the Thursday before the race. I know my place and was not intending to be disrespectful to Stephen at all.
Nice to meet you at GNR Cole. I haven’t been running long just gone a year this week but 2 months into my running journey I was getting 15/20 heart palpitations per minute literally constant and didn’t go to the GP until a week later (stupid I know) they could not believe I didn’t go straight to A&E 😂 they gave me beta blockers and it returned back to normal after a week and I got similar checks to you and all was good. Came off the meds after 6 weeks or so and haven’t had one since. They ended up concluding it was the exercise (which I did go all in on). Just makes me think it could have been your intense block into the GNR. Anyway hope it’s all good which I’m sure it will be and I’m glad your sister is on the mend and doing well also! Keep up the good work 😎💪🏽
Ah thanks man was nice to meet you too! Good to hear you’re all good now! Yeah could’ve been my training block, still getting them but they’re not painful so who knows haha
I find that plated shoes are especially punishing for the quads on a downhill. Shortening the stride and higher cadence would alleviate the strain a bit.
Random palpitations...try cutting out all caffeine for a weak and see if it makes a difference. It sorted mine as well as sleeping issues, bloating and breathing problems. Annoying though as it helps you run faster.
@ColeRunning well done. Its amazing how caffeine builds up in your system and messes your sleep up over the weeks. I could fall asleep but then wake up after 4 or 5 hours tired but couldnt drop off again. Mmm, palpitationx can be a pain to find the cause of if not caffeine. I've had them during a period of grief 5 years ago and 9 years ago during a period of stress at work. It did go away on its own though once the pressure was lifted so if you can find a way to live a life of as little pressure/stress as possible for a while it might just go away like mine did twice. I bet the youtube life can add pressure to perform.
Good luck with Vitality 10K and the Manchester HM. I've heard the Manchester Marathon course is very flat and a good PB course so I imagine the HM course is quick also and high unlikely you will be face temperatures you had to suffer in the GNR.
2 mins 33 to take of when it's flat and cold? It's happening mate, just a matter of the right course and the right weather. I had a sip of water then poured 2 bottles over my heat..a little too much near the end as my alphafys were squelching, but what a power boost when you drench yourself. My soar vest felt very heavy though.
My quads still arnt 100% recovered. I was actually concerned i must be running wrong. 😅 glad it wasnt just me. You did unbelievable getting so close to your goal pace. And the great north run ive found youre actually training for the day not just the run. Like you mentioned its hard to warm up and theres the whole getting dropped off and walking to start etc the bag drop was too far away this year imo.
The bag drop was a bit further than last year from what I heard so yeah not ideal! Definitely not alone on the quad DOMS. I’m unsure if it was the hills or the standing in a queue freezing for 4 hours that causes the achey legs 🤣
Hi Cole congrats on the sub 70 that’s insane!! Just wondering you mentioned your heart rate should be 198 if you take 220 minus your age, have you ever gotten above that figure either doing a max heart rate test or a all out 5k or something like that?? It’s just cause my 220 minus my age heart rate would be 196 but I’ve hit over 205 a few times using a chest strap monitor
I don’t really have a low heart rate. Maybe it’s because i’m quite young but my resting heart rate is about average maybe a bit below and my max heart rate is really high (about 220 bpm). Sometimes I do get a bit concerned about it.
Palpitations after eating hmm look up Dr Sanjay Gupta vagus nerve on here. Depending what I eat, I can get these dreaded palms too, not as fit as you mind!
That’s not a totally crazy thing actually! I had to study the vagus nerve for a piece of coursework not too long ago so I can see how it could be related!
Haha not at all. Ellis beat Mo on a good day. I just beat 2 guys who didn’t taper and had rough days when I performed to 100%. I know I can’t touch them on a normal day haha 🤣 was just good for the title haha
You were better than them don't have low self esteem. This is a competetive world. If they could, they would kick your ass, but you were BETTER than them.- What does it mean, bad day? Would I beat Lebron James in Basketball even If he had a bad day? Or Chrisian Ronaldo on football? If they were in so bad condition, then they shouldn't participate on race, not your fault that you rekt them.

She crushed it! The GP I had just couldn’t get his head round the low HR 🤣
Nice update on the GNR, but also good to hear about your health concerns. Hope all gets sorted out and you keep healthy👍🏾
Thanks mate! I’m all good… just waiting final blood tests! 😁

How have you managed to worm your way into the women’s only wave 🤣 yessss the atmosphere was unreal! Thanks man, MOT

They get baffled when they see a low heart rate 🤣
@@ColeRunning what's your resting hr cole?
Smashed it , Goodluck with the 10k and half marathon, glad everything was okay at the hospital 💪
Thanks James! Should be okay haha 🤣
Poor form claiming you scalped Stephen Scullion regardless.

@@ColeRunning to add to this you ran great in horrible conditions. I’m not trying to take away from that.
Great series Cole and amazing result! 💪
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks buddy!
Fantastic running, well done. My GP is exactly the same about my heart rate and BP. Especially as I'm a type 2 diabetic too.
Guess they just have to be careful 😃
I hope Scully & Tommo aren't watching this they'll both kick your arse next time 🤣
I hope they do because it’ll mean they’re back in business! 😄😅
Well done by the way that was a great run 👏@@ColeRunning

29th is INCREDIBLE - congrats Cole!
Thank you Sara 😁😁😁
I find that plated shoes are especially punishing for the quads on a downhill.
Shortening the stride and higher cadence would alleviate the strain a bit.
I agree. I ran a race in plated shoes not so long back and there were some really steep downhills, I could barely walk for 2 days afterwards!
You might be right!! I’ll have to experiment
Great series Cole. It wasnt the course or conditions to run a pb at GNR. You're in great shape. Im sure you will smash it at Manchester half 👍
Thanks mate! Plus with a whole extra month of training, fingers crossed! 😃
Random palpitations...try cutting out all caffeine for a weak and see if it makes a difference. It sorted mine as well as sleeping issues, bloating and breathing problems. Annoying though as it helps you run faster.
Thanks mate, I’ve cut out the caffiene for the past week, sleep has massively improved but still getting the palpitations. Thanks so mate!
@ColeRunning well done. Its amazing how caffeine builds up in your system and messes your sleep up over the weeks. I could fall asleep but then wake up after 4 or 5 hours tired but couldnt drop off again. Mmm, palpitationx can be a pain to find the cause of if not caffeine.

Probably your best video. Well done. Although you cost me 150 quid getting those shorts!!!
Hahaha sorry about that mate! 🤣 they’re proper worth it tho mate! Thanks for tuning in 😆
Sub-67 is coming. Come on Cole! Definitely getting myself one of those Soar singlets.
Yessss you should they’re top quality, 45grams for a vest! Just joined tonbridge and their club kit is soar, proper nice stuff feels so professional
Well done. You're doing great
Thank you kind sir 😄
Good luck with Vitality 10K and the Manchester HM. I've heard the Manchester Marathon course is very flat and a good PB course so I imagine the HM course is quick also and high unlikely you will be face temperatures you had to suffer in the GNR.
Yes I’ve heard the same. My dad did the full marathon and it’s mostly the same course and he said it’s pancake flat so gonna give it my best shot!
2 mins 33 to take of when it's flat and cold? It's happening mate, just a matter of the right course and the right weather. I had a sip of water then poured 2 bottles over my heat..a little too much near the end as my alphafys were squelching, but what a power boost when you drench yourself. My soar vest felt very heavy though.
Haha I reckon I can do it! Haha yep gotta be careful not to fully drench yourself too much 🤣
My quads still arnt 100% recovered. I was actually concerned i must be running wrong. 😅 glad it wasnt just me.

It’s just cause my 220 minus my age heart rate would be 196 but I’ve hit over 205 a few times using a chest strap monitor
It’s just a ballpark figure mate, very rough estimate so I wouldn’t stress about being above it unless you’re in abnormal pain 😁
nice one mate, I wasn't stressing myself personally more curious about your own experience@@ColeRunning
Nice mate!!
Thanks buddy!!
I don’t really have a low heart rate. Maybe it’s because i’m quite young but my resting heart rate is about average maybe a bit below and my max heart rate is really high (about 220 bpm). Sometimes I do get a bit concerned about it.
I wouldn’t stress mate, majority of runners are very healthy people!
I hope you told the medical people you came 29th in your recent race, to which they probably wrote in your notes 'average runner' 😂
Hahaha yeah they’d have no clue haha
@@ColeRunning I'm sure it'll all be fine, but good move to get it checked out! C'mon Coleee!
Thanks Steven, I’m sure it will! Still getting some flutters but nothing major!
Tbf Scully had some really bad weeks
Our thoughts are with him ❤️
he did mention man , shout out to Stephen!
Palpitations after eating hmm look up Dr Sanjay Gupta vagus nerve on here. Depending what I eat, I can get these dreaded palms too, not as fit as you mind!
That’s not a totally crazy thing actually! I had to study the vagus nerve for a piece of coursework not too long ago so I can see how it could be related!
220-your age is not scientific 😂 it’s ball park at best. Cracking run though.
I’m aware but thanks mate haha
Your kind of mini Ellis beating farah moment
nice clickbait in the thumbnail too 😂. Don’t remember sir mo behind you on the finish straight
Haha not at all. Ellis beat Mo on a good day. I just beat 2 guys who didn’t taper and had rough days when I performed to 100%. I know I can’t touch them on a normal day haha 🤣 was just good for the title haha
@@ColeRunning that's why I said mini🤣
You were better than them don't have low self esteem. This is a competetive world. If they could, they would kick your ass, but you were BETTER than them.-
What does it mean, bad day? Would I beat Lebron James in Basketball even If he had a bad day? Or Chrisian Ronaldo on football? If they were in so bad condition, then they shouldn't participate on race, not your fault that you rekt them.
So true that’s one way of looking at it! Thanks a lot mate 👍🏻
