LETTTSSSS GOOOOOOOO!!! I haven't been too active due to college, but I'm glad I tuned in for this one, I love watching your progress, it inspires me in my running. Great job man!
Why isn't this a thing in the US? We have road relays, but I have never seen a cross country relay in the US. Yet it is at the world athletics cross country championships. It sounds like it would be fun.
Nah, Hallamshire Harriers is just another Sheffield Team. The two main ones are City of Sheffield and Hallamshire Harriers. There is a Hallam University team as well
Intrigued by the comment XC spikes are just a gimmick and that you use track spikes with Nike pyramid XC spikes. I thought track spikes have a smooth back section so makes it even worse for grip?
The only decent XC spike is the Nike Dragonfly XC but even that has a waterproof upper and no hole at the back. In the UK water is getting in regardless and then that upper just means there's worse drainage

Awesome race! Lookin fast, Alfie
Thank you!
Great run, completely agree with the dragonfly opinion, but i cant agree with half tights for cross 😅
Sorry! i'll wear splitshorts next time
Nah half tights feel way better
Where did you buy those pyramid Xc spike replacements from or did you take them from a pair of Nike xc spikes?

Fully smooth to prevent dirt accumulation, and just the spikes for the needed grip 👍

Why’d you leave city of Sheffield
It was hard to get teams out for events like this. so last year I found myself not racing in races I wanted to
