They definitely need to bring those records back. I'm quite vocal about this on my channel. They were very motivating for a lot of runners and weren't any trouble at all for those that were not interested in them. Parkrun lost a little bit of its sparkle when they were removed. As an older runner, loved the age records.
Couldn’t agree more. Who really gets upset by these records? Do you think they’ll get reinstated. Btw I’m no where near fast enough but respect those that can get close to these times.
@@markfoz7248 I don't think they will get reinstated, sadly. Parkrun headquarters is out of touch with the majority of their participants. No where near as fast as Nick, but as a 63 year-old my best at Winchester is 21:57. Would like to get that below 21 mins, or maybe 20 but I might just be dreaming!
@@derekrunsagainamazing running and a time I can only dream of at 63 years young! 💪🏻 keep it up! Great to hear and thanks for sharing!
💯% agree with you. You nailed it and we should be vocal about it. That’s the only way it’ll change (potentially).
@@justalilbesterblah blah blah take it to the Olympics - much better to attract new people than people who can compete in professional events.
YES to bringing back ParkRun stats! Good grief, what a lame decision that was.
If enough are keen then maybe they will one day 🤞🏻
Bring back the stats!!! Great running Nick. I was getting serious anxiety watching you having to dodge all the others runners whilst running insanely fast 😱😱 Great result 🔥🔥
I totally agree with what you said around 3:40 about the “bigger reason” behind the removal of stats! I’ve been saying this for ages, so it’s nice to see you thought the same.
What do you reckon the bigger reason is?
@@OwMeEd Parkrun’s standpoint on the topic of transgender athletes, specifically transgender females taking records from biological females. They got backlash for this just before the stats were removed
They definitely need to bring the record lists and age-grading lists back. As you say parkrun should be for everyone and they can be brought back and still achieve that as they used to. Sign the petition to bring them back!
Love how you stay and encourage everyone one. Your ace 🤟🏼😊
Whenever I see the 15 / 16 min runners at Parkrun it always looks so effortless so hearing the effort being made makes me see that its not that easy for them. I've done Winchester before and the problem area is always the bridge with two way traffic. Great video!
Well done! I don't agree at all with the removal of the stats but at least I can still see your course record on the 5k app! I also don't think they were really removed because they were a barrier to newbies. On the contrary when I started running, I loved seeing the amazing times people were achieving and hoped to develop even a fraction of their talent. I still absolutely love cheering on the front runners and anyone who laps me. So inspiring! Winchester used to be my home parkrun so it's nice to see a familiar route profiled. Keep up the great work!
Congratulations on your position 🎉another great video. I’m glad you knew where you were going that looks a complicated course! Love that you encourage others at the end, true Parkrun spirit.
What amazed me is to see the look and determination of those runners coming in. Then I realised we all have different abilities but so many of us out there are giving our best. Which is just great to see!
Yes too bringing the stats back!!....great video & loving the on screen heart rate and time & pace...what a run Nick!!....🎉🎉🎉Boooooommmsshhaaakkaalllakkka!!!. .... 🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️🏃🏻♂️x
Knew you’d enjoy this one. With all my runs going forward I’ll include the stats so you can see how hard I’m pushing 🙌🏻 x
Great run Nick. Hope they bring back records because that’s what makes me push myself. As a younger runner I love trying to get the records at my local park runs and was really disappointed when they took them all away
Ideally I'd like all the stats to be reintroduced, but clearly that's not happening.. As an older runner I do miss the age-graded stats - found them motivational each week, and can't see the logic for dropping them. Great running Nick, looks to me like you were joint 4th rather than 6th. And yes, you're right about slower runners looking out for where they get lapped, that's part of the fun for me!
i watched a couple of these Nick vids that really show hard effort. i took my 5k PB down from 37 to 34 minutes in one go. great inspiration for a recreational/newbie.
Thanks for the perspective view with commentary. The course record was always a cool stat to check when getting results from a parkrun visited. Even to check the course record before visiting is awesome. But yoh!! Like I always say: Jy is Moer vinnig yasso 🏃🏻♂🔥!!! Awesome stuff!
Thanks my beotie!
Let’s keep living life hard and see where it takes us!! 🙌🏻
So happy I discovered your content! Currently working on getting back to faster Parkrun times ☺️
Pop down the road to the Eastleigh parkrun! A lovely 3 laps round an old golf course with a killer hill that gets worse each lap 😄😄
Definitely need to give this a go! 🙌🏻 I really want to do Southampton too
What a guy so glad I came across your content Nick, your numbers are seriously impressive, doing it in that time and on grass too 🤯
🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻💙
loved watching this from your point of view!!! i could watch these all day
I have some epic races planned coming up. So look out for these ☝🏻👀 I’ll be sure to share them, with my thoughts. Hoping to reach higher heights 📈
Amazing Run Champ🎉🎉. I wish i can be able to run that speed😅
I Love it when giving cheers later. That's beautiful ❤️
❤️❤️🫶🏻
I love your parkrun videos… love to see you enjoying your run then supporting others at the end.
When are the size L Boomshakalaka socks coming back in stock?

@@justalilbester on it. They will be mine!
Great effort! I was taking deep breaths as you were running those last 400m! =D
Well done Nick. Removing the records was a disgrace. Even more so the attitude of HQ in a recent meeting. Basically saying if you don’t like it don’t come. People on the ground at local level superb as ever. Sad to see the direction HQ are going in.
Not sure how we’ll ever change that. Anyways at the end of the day it’s still a great concept and at least it encourages a lot to get out.
Great running, especially on grass. Looks like a really nice parkrun 👍🏻
It’s great but yes what a morning for it too ☀️ 😍
Thanks for posting this and the rest of your content. It's very helpful. It's amazing to me how you don't hit your max heart rate earlier in the race. Mine is about 191 and I hit it at about the halfway mark.
Wow now that’s a proper send from early on! My max is actually slightly lower than a lot of others. But my testing HR is lower than most too at around 35/36. It’s all about range 👌🏻
That is a beautiful park. Incredible run Nick! ❤
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed. It is beautiful hey ❤️ one I’ll be doing a lot more going forward (once my littles one’s ballet schedule changes 😉)
@@justalilbesterReally like this new POV man. My best parkrun is only a 23:50, and I felt exhausted watching you! Haha you're an absolute beast. Full send always! 🤙
watching this motivated me so much half way through the vid i had to go for an evening jog... lol
Great to hear 🙌🏻 keep showing up 🏃♂️
@@justalilbester u bet nick! always bringing the vibes
Hi nick I thought having your pace and heart rate was really cool but from my viewing perspective (not sure about others!) It would be cool if you could at a stopwatch at the corner so we can see just how fast each split is. Obviously it dosent really matter and I’m still going to watch your videos either way but it’s just a recondition.😊
Thanks nick!!
Great Parkrun again Nick 👏
Mine today was 23:44. It’s crazy to think how fast your pace is 🙌
That’s a fantastic run on that surface 👍
Great run! My mate won here the morning after his wedding day just last April 😅 I was happy with my 25 mins, especially after the beers
🤣🤣 wow! Now that is dedication right there!
Great running Nick .
Love your content Nick, great effort! Thank you for sharing!
Great video Nick, smashed it🎉
Brilliant Champ! Love it! 💙🤍
I watched that and found myself swerving around the oncoming runners!
Definitely need to bring back course records!
YES to this! 🙌🏻 Perhaps one day champ. Seems most feel your way too.
The speed is amazing! Even 5 minutes/km is difficult...
I was so disappointed that they removed the course records and Men’s under 17 and women,s under 20. Even though I run 21 mins, I still love to know how this course be ran by the greatest. They are inspirational for me to follow (just like you are inspiring). Now I did not run parkrun since they removed those records. I go to run solo Parkrun by myself on the Saturday and Sunday noon time. I record my own time, so almost the same feelings but without the crowd .
Great run on that course. Bring back the stats! No reason is good enough to take them away. 46yo 6"3 98kg 21:34 pb, sub 21 coming soon!
Let me know when you break 21 👊🏻 go get it!
Great run. Why can’t people stick to the left, annoys me to no end, how do you put up with it?
You got to come to my hometown and try the Perth parkrun!
Would love to see you at my local Parkrun one day (Victoria Dock, East London) if you’re ever in the area…..
Nick you’ve moved to a great part of the UK, your not to far from my Home Park run of West Moors near Ringwood, I think you need to give our one a Boom shaker lack go, it’s a one route course, you’ll love it, part hard pack trail, the last K tarmac. Hope you can do it one day. DM if you’re interested.
Thanks so much and I’ll definitely add this to the list!!! 🙌🏻
Great Running Nick B! How do you combat being so much faster and fitter than everyone (bar 1 or 2 others) else in the field? I mean, isn't it boring to finish so quickly and then just stand around and watch everyone else? ... What do you do post run on a race day like this? Greetings from a chilly Port Elizabeth, SA.
Greetings 🇿🇦 👋 na I don’t find it boring it all. It’s all about 2 things for me. Trying to be the best me, and community.
Here I tried to beat my previous parkrun time. And there’s no better community event than parkrun 🫶🏻 encouraging so many to get out 🏃♀️
Great stuff Nick! Boomshakalaka!!!!!
6”2, 120kg,47 and at 32:42 the only thing we have in common is the the SA accent. I enjoy parkrun for just being out there records are fine for those who care about them , I disagree that getting lapped is motivating but it’s encouraging when a front runner cheers you on but also annoying when they think they own the place ! You showed your class by staying and cheering on the others !!! . The 6 week training pack looks great but not sure it’s intended for those at the back of the pack . Keep up the great work
At the end of the day we all run the 5k and a lot of us work just as hard.
The 6 week run clinic is for everyone. Lots to learn and take away from the course too. Regardless of ability 🙌🏻
Great run, looks like you came joint 4th in the UK for the week :)
Yup indeed :) nice way to look at it. I should have squeezed an extra second out of this run ;)
What tool did you use to overlay your speed/BPM onto the video? How did you convert the gpx into an overlay? Great vid as always
If your local to Winchester Nick, are you doing the alresford 10k at the start of next month - it’s an amazing race 😊
I’m doing the Thruxton 10k mid next month. Seems like it’s on a nice fast race course
They need to bring those back
Bring the records back!
Ummm you did good son👍👍. Certainly a full send 😊. Love it. How much faster on ashfelt. Ie did the grass feel like slowing you down. Maybe you were fastest on grass😊
Let’s see how this relates to some upcoming faster road 5kms I have next month and that’ll give us a good idea 🙌🏻
I think you are in good shape and form. Looking forward to see you run your afterburners🔥
You sound absolutely knackered from the first 1k but brilliant regardless 👏👏
Nick come and do Andover Parkrun with us, it’s a great location for a PB!
So you do my breathing exercises or techniques when you run ? Brilliant effort
Not really. I do try and find rhythms for as long as possible. But not always easy when you’re fully emptying the tank towards the end of the run.
Of course they should bring back the records.
BRING BACK THE RECORDSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!
Yeeessss!! ☝🏻
Agree with your comments on the stats. Winchester is our local parkrun and had not realised you had moved here.
Yeah I moved here about 2 months ago 🫶🏻
My daughter runs at WADAC but there is WRC and my own club, Worthy Runners. I'm 'fairly sure' we're all too slow for you though 🤣
@@ianl4518 great stuff. I’ve actually entered the 3,000m BMC track event there on the 3rd of July. Can’t wait
@justalilbester, I see Morgan tied your time this week at Dulwich, I think we need another showdown!
Yes we do!! And that we have!! We both doing the same 5k at Battersea on the 25th of June. Rematch time!!
My fear is that the stats are just the beginning of alot of changes that will make parkrun a completely pointless 40 min drive! Thanks for letting us see what it's like up front and you are very respectful of all the other runners and walkers just like the fast ones are at all my local parkruns 👍
I'd need a sat nat for this one i recon
Parkrun need to bring back the records as it gives people off ages and abilities a chance to create their personal milestone.
Nick... any tips for not killing pigeons on my parkrun? It's been a bloodbath lately.
🤣🤣 funnily enough, with all the near misses I’ve had. I’ve never stood on one
Hey nick awesome video as always, I started running a few weeks ago literally because of one of your videos I stumbled upon. I was about go into the comment section to ask what watch you used and then you said the fr 965 right as I was doing it 😎keep it up brother
Hearing this makes it so worth making videos 🫶🏻 lovely to hear!
Keep showing up 💥
@benisrunning do this also without music. Let us hear those anaerobic breathing. 🙌
hey nick my cadence is about 173-75 as a 6'3 runner, is there anyway ways to improve this?
Try downloading cadence audios. It always helps running to those
Finished 6 min behind you at the weekend. Think I'm same height and weight but reckon around 10 years older. Its a min per year yes...😊
Okay you win by 4 minutes 🤣🙌🏻 I’ll try harder next time.
Haha. How you guys run that fast is mind blowing with so many turns etc on this course.
bring back records!
Probably I would have got lost in under a minute on that course.... looks like a nightmare :D But well done Nick!
It does get a bit confusing, especially when you’re tired and your mind plays tricks with you.
Beast. I don't agree with the removal of the records but they arnt going to reverse the decision.
Those little coughs in the middle are so real bruh
🤣 don’t even notice those while running. Only when watching it back.
I sound like that every 5k. But i only run 23:12 5k also my HR spikes up immediately.
Classic Nick 3:00 per km pace!
I fell asleep to the sound of Nick breathing!
It is a race if you want to be, and it's a social if you want it to be. The records should be brought back with age categories, based on people's sex at birth. This seems to be the elephant on the course, and the solution is not to simply shut standard practices down.
Quick Nick 🏃👊🏼💥
3 more years of PB hunting before it’s time to try get that handicap down again 🏌️♀️
Is there any chance you could explain why you use the garmin 965 over something like coros? Thanks my friend
I’m used to it and to a bit of work with them. I will however be reviewing a Suunto in one of my upcoming videos. So look out for that 👀
“Parkrun is not a race it’s a run” nonsense, for me it’s a race against yourself each week also a lot of people walk it not run so I think even calling it a run is off putting for people 😂 yes records should be brought back as it’s a sign of achievement especially for older runners.
Hello How Do you overlay the metrics in the video
There is an app called "5K" that still has all the course records on it.
It's annoying that they did it but I kind of get them not wanting to get involved with said "bigger reason", it's somewhat of a radioactive issue that they probably just don't want to have to deal with
damn, who else running out or breathe watching this? 😂😂😂😂
I’ll definitely be pushing harder in my upcoming races from next week 😅
Do you inhale through your nose only or both?
Both. Predominantly mouth towards the end. Recent research seems to show that nose breathing is better. But I find that hard when I’m almost at max HR 😅
Nasal breathing is for low intensity easy running not race or interval effort.
What shoes? Adios Pro 3s?
Yup those are the ones.
Looks flat. The same effort would have gotten you closer to 15 minutes at somewhere like Dulwich but the surface makes a difference.
By the way, I think I heard you say runners can hold threshold heart rate for between 30 and 45 minutes? The definition of threshold is that it’s the rate or pace that can be held for an hour. 30 mins is critical velocity I think.
Park run so out of touch with runners😞. Going to order a ‘bring back the stats’ Tee shirt👍
Isn’t this very close to your marathon pace?
My PB marathon pace is 3:19 per km. But remember this is off-road running.
is it on the grass???
Yes about 95% on grass
Joint 4th fastest I'd say :)
I do my parkrun every Saturday and I sound like you. Steam trains make less noise. 😋
I don't think parkrun should have ditched their records. It's a shame the minority have been prioritised over the majority again.
My 5k only 23: 02 running in the road on 5:00 am this morning
Not big fan running on the grass 😂😂
In my 350 plus parkruns thus far I'm yet to meet anyone displaying symptoms of trauma as a result of not making it onto the fastest 500 list, not having the most wins, or not holding an age category record. If parkrun was never meant to be a race and only a social gathering then why bother timing the event? Why hand out finish position tokens, why have a countdown start? Why can it not be both? Each participant is sent an email informing them of their finishing position and time. Surely this in itself itself is potentially more damaging to this non existent group. Logic follows that if the stats that can only be found by looking for them have been deemed potentially offensive then the results page and email's should also go. Fed up with this sanitisation of competition in the name of inclusvity. Bring back the Stats?
i wish people would stick left and not spread out
2nd!
To dodge any controversy they should bring them back but just as a name and record time and not bring any other factors into it!
Anyone else think kilometer 2-3 is the hardest?
2nd hardest km for me
What’s a Park Run? 😂
A 5k on a Saturday at a lot of locations globally. Great concept 🫶🏻
without the records they might as well stop timing parkrun, i bet a lot less people would show up
1st
That was literally as a posted it! 🔥 pace!!
비둘기들아 날개 안쓸거면 나줘라
12:21 you cut the course. Someone should email the director to get him disqualified for cheating
🤣🤣 no ways was I ended up on the lake around that corner.
I spot that too
