Boston Marathon 2024 - A Runner's Weekend
Вставка
- Опубліковано 8 чер 2024
- I ran Boston last year, so this year, I wanted to approach it differently. Of course I still wanted to go to all the shakeouts, visit all the popups, host a panel discussion or two, and take as many selfies as possible. But I also had the chance to see the finish line, up close and personal. It was a bigger Boston this year, and even though I wasn't running it, I still had the best time.

![The Full BOSTON MARATHON Experience [Travel, Expo, Shakeout, Race]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/_BKlsvSXUpI/mqdefault.jpg)
Everybody is layered up & freezing, & yet, there’s Matt Choi who showed up with tank tops & short shorts. Matt is savage! 😂
Always patiently arrival of these vids..best in the business. You always capture the moment and convey it to us giving us all the feels.
Thanks Wil!
This was my first ever US marathon (I'm from Poland) and first Major. Definitely US know how to organize races and show up to cheer! So glad and thankful for the race. Weather beat the shit out of me, but I made it through and grinded the last 10k after the Newton's Hills despite dehydration and overheating.
THIS is what I had been waiting for. I know how busy you must be covering one major while tapering for your own major, London this weekend. Thank you for all that you do for taking us along the ride. And, the best for London. I can already feel you will rock it. Best wishes Mike!!!!
That finish line part of the video was one of the best things I've watched on UA-cam.
I think that was a fantastic job done capturing the atmosphere, lots emotions, and contrasts between runners, spectators, and the staffs.
Agreed! As a finisher, the last part of this video was the best! A tough but amazing day.
Thanks so much! It’s different than how I normally cover a marathon, but getting those finish line mini interviews was so much fun!
These Runner's Weekend videos are truly the best and make me want to go to every city you show
You are such an inspiration mike! You’ve helped me, and many more reach our goals! thank you for all that you do :)
That is very kind to say. Thank you
Des gliding in with the embrace alongside Sara & Emma is such a cool shot. Awesome recap once again Kofuzi!
Thanks again for joining us for some super preliminary miles in a shoe that I think is going to surprise people in 2024. Maybe biggest come back of the year???? Looking forward to the full 100 mile recap! -Connor
Always great to collab and spend some time with you!
Pegasus turbo?
@@bitmap359 that's my first guess too...
I just love runners weekend videos. They are better than any other series on Netflix. I am serious.
thank you so much
I always enjoy your vids & capturing all the fun 🤩 during marathon week in Boston. My home city! I am glad to see you showing PYNRS & Sid some 🫶 as well. Congrats on London! 🌟🙌
I saw you saturday morning at the finish line, during the kids' races. You were with a group and already chatting with someone, so I didn't dare disturb you and be all groupie. But I was thrilled to see you were in Boston too!
it wouldn't have been a problem at all. we were all just enjoying the races!
Just the motivation I needed to get out for a speed workout I wasn't feeling today ☺
Have a great session!
Storytelling on point as usual, thanks for the video dude!
Thanks so much!
This Boston was my first ever marathon (charity bib) and after watching your vids for close to a year it helped me slowly get more into running, so thank you for the inspiration! Actually saw you in Tracksmith but was too nervous to say hi (you gave me a nod as I walked by which was still awesome). Can’t wait for more content on your end!
We’ll have to get a selfie next time!
"What a good day for a day" -Eric Floberg 2024. I think I will make this my life motto Eric.
Incredible as always. You work so hard itinerary wise let alone editing a video AND THEN you’re doing it all again whilst travelling and racing this weekend too. Totally inspiring
Boston always there to remind you that there is no guarantee in the marathon. This has been my worst race 3:10:and change in 2017, and my best race at 2:48:12 in 2023. Have to love Boston.
Incredible
If you were looking for trash, you could've picked me up around mile 22 Monday 😅 Another great Boston weekend and video. Thanks for hosting the Sunday shakeout and have a super London!
it was great to see you again!
Always love to watch you’re runners weekend 👍 it’s so good
was just browsing your channel checking if the Boston video was live yet, perfect timing!!
Nice!
Dude! LONDON'S CALLING!
Thanks for this and go crush the tea and crumpets!
Best recap i ever watch this year!!! thank you so much!!!!
Thanks for watching!
I recently finished a 2-month training plan and have been on a month-long break since. I'm viewing this video to get the motivation to run again.
Hope this helped!
Great stuff! Makes me wanna go out and run!
So nice to meet you and sharing time with your fans taking selfies. Mate you are one busy fella. All the best Sunday. Hope to catch ya in London
Ko, always bringing that top shelf quality recaps 🔥
Thanks Miguel!
Loved this vid! Thank you for taking us along despite your hectic schedule. Keep those great vids coming! You are always an inspiration!
Thanks for watching!
So many pop-ups, meet-ups, and shakeouts! So much positive energy 😺💙💛🦄 Cheers 🍻
Excellent recap video, job well done!
thank you 🙏
Outstanding video, Kofuzi 👏
Another great video reliving boston this year! It was good seeing you for the shakeout with rabbit and thanks for bringing in my wife and my friend's wife, who got lost with the chicago Asics Kofuzi shirt on at 24:43 😁😁😁
dude your videos are top notch. keep it up
Thanks for watching!
Such a great video of the Boston marathon weekend. Just finished my first Boston marathon this past Monday - hope to be back to do again 😊
So thankful to have finally made the time to watch this. Excellent storytelling, per usual :)
Thanks for watching!
I LOVE your videos Kofuzi. The editing, the music. So good. And I love how you showcase the wonderful running community. I'm training for my third half marathon and I watch these vids for inspiration 😊
good luck with your training!
Always enjoy your 'runner's weekend' uploads. Good luck and have a great run in London.
Thanks so much!
This one's a banger! Great work sir. Awesome to see some of the behind-the-scenes and VIP stuff. Keep that glorious shoe content rollin'!
Will do!
I made it in! Thanks again and I’m looking forward to running Berlin in September.
Wonderful! Absolutely smashed it. Your parting words were perfect. It was my first Boston and my plan was to qualify again during the race. It became evident from about 10k that it wasn't going to happen and that I'd have to fall back to just finishing because that was more than enough. I've already signed up for a last chance marathon on September 8th in hopes of running 2025.
Thanks for a fun shakeout run on Sunday. I spotted my friend and I running in this video. I’m sure most of us didn’t get the finish time we were expecting, but finishing a tough Boston is really rewarding.
Thanks for Sharing. The Sky Paris game me the worst blister I have ever had in my life. That with the sun made for a 3:14 finish compared to last year 3:02. Glad you were able to come out and cheer everyone on. I am running Chicago in October and Look forward to seeing you again.
The heat and relentless sun made it a tough day for so many!
Yo Ko always taking us to the next level! What a great weekend! Good luck on your London journey and safe travels!
Thanks DB!
Wooooooow! That s a masterpiece!!!! Great job!!!!!!
Thanks so much!
Excellent video. Thanks Kofuzi. Like from Spain 🇪🇸. Have a good day.
thanks for watching!
I was waiting !!! For this video !!! 💛💚💫👌🏼🤙🏻💣💫💥❤️🔥💝
It's just amazing as always ❤️
J.
thanks so much for waiting!
Great vid!!
Loved this! It was also fun to bump into you if only for a millisecond at the Marathon Sports pop-up on Sunday! Thank you for this video compilation! I am watching this from home in San Diego on Thursday a few days after the race and loving seeing it all from your perspective!
It was great to see you!
All the feels, dude! We said this was our favourite of your vid styles and you didn’t disappoint. Amazing. All the vibes 😊
Thanks for being part of it!
Cannot believe the amount of work you put in for these videos 🙌🏻
A labor of love
Thanks for all the hype, Ko!! Always so amazing to see you!!
great to see you too!
Was great to see you there multiple places.
What an absolutely awesome video that was. So well put together and capturing the togetherness this kind of event brings along. This marathon looks like the one to do. Hopefully my time in Valencia in December will be enough to get me there next year. 🙏
🤞
Superb again no surprise great job! Love the longer vid 👍Catch you at the shakeout tomorrow 🏃♂
See you there!
Thanks, quite emotional. Great footage, all the best for London 🎉
Thank you 🙏
AWESOME VIDEO 🎉🎉🎉
Yo, great seeing you! Very busy weekend, good luck this Sunday!
Fantastic video of an awesome event. The finish line footage was moving, you really captured the emotions expressed as you cross the line.
Good luck at London, I might see you there as I'm running it too 👍
Have a great race. Hope to see you there!
🎉great job.. Boston 2024
Gah! What a weekend! You caught me 3 times I feel pretty lucky!! 🎉💗
thank you 🙏
Great video
So cool to see you plogging with Tina 💚🙏🏼
I find it so relaxing
So good! Love this and also love This Messy Happy! Ben and Mary Rock! They made my Thailand trip complete :)
Very cool
Sooo good Ko! Can’t wait for the “later but not live” episode of the adidas athlete event! You even included a number of mystery shoes for us to look forward to…😮
the later but not live is available now! I'll update the description
Thanks for capturing the moment I had those shoes on my feet! I'm still in shock that I actually own a pair now! Great chatting with you, as usual and giving the heads up! ☺
it was great to chat with you!
Loved this Recap Ko!! Definitely a hot one out there this year, but a fun time!
A great weekend for running
Thanks as always for bringing us along on your run-ventures. From start to finish, the viewer can feel that he or she was there in Boston!
That’s my goal with these. I’m happy that it’s connecting!
Man, the scenes at the finish line were fantastic. Thanks for sharing the moments.
Great video as always and just the thing I needed for motivation for my marathon tomorrow. Weird seeing you run on the Newton hills on the sidewalks, most locals use the carriage road which is to your left in the video that runs parallel for the duration of the hills. Good luck in London!
I'm not a local and no one told me.
Man, so wonderful to see you with These Messy Happy, you both gave me much inspiration this year, to start running, I've lost 20 kilos and would do my first Mara in 3 weeks.
good luck for your race!
It’s wild to be this early! I’m excited 🎉
Yo
Damn, I miss my childhood hometown. If only I could get that BQ done. Btw, really glad that you caught Suguru Osako crossing the finish line. I think he deserves more coverage in the US.
Great meeting up! Excited to hopefully ship you across the world for a real Kofuzi adventure
Another gem
These weekends look absolutely FLAT OUT! Hahaha.. I wish Melbourne Marathon would have this sort of pre race madness. But sadly, Not too much.. Thanks for showing us what it's like in your and every other bloggers shoes. It's crazy!!
Great video 📹 😊
You are the best! Lots of personal interest here, and insightful commentary throughout. Boston should hire you as their PR Director. Great job, as usual! Thanks
thanks for the kind words!
finalllyyyyy, been waiting so longg
Thank you for waiting!
These runners weekend videos are my favorite, well done! I do have to rag on this race a bit though. I honestly don't get the hype. You literally run through the suburbs for 90% of the race until you reach the city which is at the end. The route makes this race lame compared to all of the other majors. NYC runs you through all 5 boroughs for god sakes (so cool). And now the medal is the ugliest out of all the majors too. I guess the prestige is what it has going for it, but I care much more about the experience than the accolade. Rant over, loved the video haha.
Omg my head swirling from all your meet ups your the rock star 💫 holy. Moly! I love it all!! Great video skills! I’m still learning running and also video but not at same time 😂 the Colfax half marathon is sold out here in Denver I’m excited to be apart of it !
Hope you have a great race!
Thanks for your videos😊🙏🏾. I train a fair bit on my treadmill recently for my 7marathons in 7days for bowel cancer uk. They have been so good to watch and inspire me to keep going through the fatigue training twice a day early morning and after work. I really appreciate the the time you take to do them and rewatch the marathon weekends the most!! 👏🏽🙌🏽💯💫
good luck with your training!
Thanks so much!! Have a great time in London 🥳💯🏃🏽♂️
Great video as always. Enjoy a Parkrun shakeout tomorrow and dont over do it on the pie and mash!
I heard there would be one that I might be able to attend but it unfortunately doesn't fit into my schedule. I will have to save it for the next UK trip
Hey Ko, thank you for sharing your video!! I felt all the energy and excitement all over again through your video, great job - as always. Missed meeting you again this year but look forward to another opportunity. Best of wishes for your London experience! Boston certainly warmer than wanted this year but accepted the challenge. Did you happen to make it to the 27th Mile Party?
Great coverage. A gritty day for gritty people. I had a great weekend, but the race was so much tougher than last year. I certainly earned my medal & still had a blast.
congratulations!
Can't wait to go back and run Boston in 2025! Thanks for all the Boston vibes! One of the coolest 26.2 races there is!!!! I love the heat so selfishly hope its kinda warm next year vs the cold rain I experienced last time. (87F and 73 dew point for my 10 miler today, HR still down in the low 130s 😉)
Love these… I will get there one day. Going for my BQ attempt #4 in October at the Wineglass.
good luck!!
This is awesome! I hope you had fun in Boston with all of us from the New England Revolution!
Boston always treats me well!
What? No Red sox?
Brilliant video, hopefully I get the BQ at London and I'll be there next year ✌🏽 Good luck at London and hope to see you out there!
Let’s have a great race!
Absolutely marvelous filming and editing as always. The finish line was ultra special and emotional. It’s a good thing you weren’t running this time on top of your insane schedule, Mike, and it was also lucky your first Boston was in cooler weather. It was fun to be taken back to all these places so soon after getting home. This was such a tough one I questioned continuing my streak, but seeing this (and having a few days of recovery) brought back the inspiration!
THE Messy Happy!
Seeing that smile on CJ's face at 34:35 as he broke 2:10 for the first time! So good!
Yess! 📺🍿
Yo!
Every time I watch these videos I smile the entire time! Thank you!
thanks for smiling!
36:29 Insane energy levels 🔥
Your videos are always so enjoyable to watch. Thank you for all your hard work!
Great stuff, I love your videos they are a huge part of why I run now! Been watching for years, keep up the awesome work and thank you 😊
It is a great community you are part of…. Well maybe in a small way we are all part of ❤
Whenever you put your paces for your run on the screen, I gotta pause and just let your speed sink in for a moment. You're one quick non-elite runner. Much respect to you.
thank you
"I gotta get out of here, the energy ain't great!" Couldn't agree more... 😮
I appreciated what they were all trying to do in that space, but I look forward to how they will tweak the concept in the future.
@@kofuzi yes if fetishism can be associated with a commodity, that was it's sweltering hareem. 😉
Wow!! I never thought I’d see myself in one of these videos but i was finishing in the white singlet just behind Joe Greer. I don’t know if there’s anyway you can send me that clip, but thank you for inadvertently capturing that!!
