    Thank you for making videos, James! Your videos have always been among my favourite on this platform.
    Nowadays UA-cam is overrun with people trying to make running into a full-time job and their videos reflect that; many people just stick a camera in their face and record themselves rambling.
    Your videos however, which this video also highlights perfectly, are much more focused on the joy of running in beautiful places, the philosophy behind running, and the connection by sharing the journey with other runners. It gives your videos a feeling of authenticity and inspires to go out and explore rather than merely focusing on pace and time.
    Best wishes in the coming year(s), and I am looking forward to many more race videos!

      Thanks, that means a lot! I've got no plans for this to be my job and the thought of this being my main source of income isn't very appealing. But I'm really enjoying making videos and really want to be able to make higher quality films with better storytelling. So hopefully you continue to enjoy the videos as I experiment and try to improve!

Watching your tips videos, and the races you do - I absolutely love your charisma and love for the sport. Your videos and editing are so well done and expertly crafted. May your journey be one filled with adventure and good health. Keep going James!

    Love your content James! I am hoping to run my first ultra (probably 60k) in 2025. Partly because of your videos and the motivation I get from them.
    I hope to run a sub 3.30 Copenhagen Marathon firstly though. Are you running that again? If yes let me know so I can come and say hello ;) I need to cut off 10 minutes of my PB from last year though. Not sure whether it is possible or not but with a lot of MAF leading up to the 16 weeks of specific training, I hope I will ;)
    Do you upload your training programs anywhere?
    Cheers and happy new year

      Thanks Casper! Good luck with your first ultra! I'm sure you'll love it! I'm not running Copenhagen this year but it's an amazing course for a fast time! I don't upload training plans anywhere but I do post my training on strava. If you're looking for some templates, I would recommend Ben Parkes training plans on his website. Different plans based on your goals and not too expensive.
