  • Sarah has been training really well for Frankfurt Marathon, so she wanted to try and break 20 minutes at Parkrun, one of her all time goals. So follow along as we head to Dulwich Park and see how she gets on! Plus some food chat and all my thoughts on what happened in Vienna!

    Was amazing to watch Eliud on Saturday I watched it all live until my tv stopped 15 seconds to the end, doh but I knew he’d make and seeing him cross that line (when the tv came back) was phenomenal. Like you said and Eliud said the run wasn’t about him it was about showing no human is limited and we can all achieve great things, it’s certainly inspired me in my training to find out what is possible. Runs like this do wonders for the sport. People all over and non runners have been constantly talking about it and that’s what it’s all about inspiring the next generation. Even my 2 year old has seen it. Great vid and congrats on your PB Sarah

    Thanks for all the videos Ben. You inspire me a Lot and you are my Running coach. You provide the actual video content that helps me grow and push my best runs.
    Ran my first 5k @ 33:00mins 3months ago. Did Park run last week 5k @ 27:40 PB. Registered for Half Marathon on May2nd @Cincinnati. I will need all your videos and Inspiration to get there. Doing my Easy run, Long Run and Park run every week as you said and going to Crossfit 3 days a week to gain the strength. Hope i will continue this dedication until May and achieve my first half marathon.
    Thank you again. This is my first reply to your videos but have been following since couple of months.

    Felt very inspired by Kipchoge. Set an ambitious goal of 38 minutes in a 10K on Sunday. (I’ve been marathon training for 9 weeks and so have my highest fitness ever, but my previous PR was just under 40 minutes and this was a much tougher course.) I was elated when I finished in 37:30!

    Another great vlog Ben! Loved to hear how positive you are about 1:59. Completely agree with everything you said - I've had friends and family with no interest in running talk about it, which is wonderful and surreal.
    Big congrats to Sarah too!

  • @toirleachomalley3264
    @toirleachomalley3264 4 роки тому +2

    i loved seeing the 1:59 by Eliud K. People tend to forget that this didn't take 2 hours. Kipchoge won his first world title at 18 in 2003! This Marathon time is a lifetime in the making. An extraordinary talent that just has to be admired. I'm not sure if he will choose to do the Olympics next year or go for a fast time. I think he could get pretty close to breaking 2 in good conditions in London or more likely Berlin.

  • @eugenekrapyvin

  • @Jameswmin
    @Jameswmin 4 роки тому +4

    Congrats to Sarah.
    Towards the end of my easy run today I did some short sprints/strides. I felt like I was running really rather fast. My watch says my maximum pace was 3:11/km. It’s incredible to me that, if I could somehow sustain that pace, it would be good enough for a 2:14 marathon, i.e. what Brigid Kosgei ran in Chicago.

    • @SarahPlace
      @SarahPlace 4 роки тому +1

    CONGRATS TO SARAH for runing 19:40 that is such a breathtaking time! WOW! Also lets not forget 10:40..my cat are doing the same thing right now + the other 24 hours of the day but never mind that haha.
    I loved the Eliud 1:59 challenge and watched it the whole way through. My family isn't interested in running at all but when I got them to sit down and watch it they ended up cheering so much in the last kms anyways, it was great. Yes he had those shoes, yes he had pacers helping him and yes it's not an official world record but the way everyone came together and supported him really showed a positive light for the sport and community. I loved it and it almost inspired me as much as Ben Parkes :D

    Well done Sarah....showing Ben how to get a new PB done :). Loved Eliud’s 1:59, then Brigid Kosgei ...it was an amazing sunday....at the end of the day, he ran it...on his feet....in one go.. a real roger bannister moment, however you define the word “class” eliud kipchoge showed it in the what, how and why he did it. Even more amazing, what pressure - a staged event, the worlds attention, peaking perfectly, showing up and then nailing a first for humanity ....to order. Wow.
    A day to celebrate. Awesome, period.

    Congratulations to Sarah for her amazing time! Went from 29.38 to 21.58 on the 5k this year after training for my half marathon so I know how shhe must feel about that accomplishment! People will always find something to be negative about. Kipchoge is a rolemodel unlike anyone we've seen for a very long time. Humble, grateful, and takes nothing for granted. We can all learn a lot from him and his world view. I don't remember ever being close to shedding a tear or two as I was when he broke 2 hrs. Could not care less about the technology and pacing that was going on, it was something that transcended that simplistic view on the achievement. Well done Kipchoge, and you Ben. Thanks for keeping up the positive view on the world - hugely inspiring ❤️

    Congratulations Sarah!
    It was a brilliant weekend of running for me. I took the Kipchogue thing as an experiment - to see , under controlled conditions if it could be done. A lot of people complained about the shoes, pacers etc and then suggested he might not be a clean athlete but I enjoyed it. The coverage was great and overall it was a positive thing.
    On Sunday I smashed my 1/2M PB by 4 mins (1hr27m49) and I was made up with it. I was hoping to just go sub 90mins but did better than I expected. I heard someone recently say "Go all in and see where it takes you" I am really glad I went for it and got the rewards. It's given me a real confidence boost for the Valencia training/race.

    You both are give so much inspiration to run and get better! Congratulations for your pb Sarah!! I started to run after a injury in my ankel I had for 3 years. I did my first race ever the 30th of September 2019 (10km). I was so tired after that race that I ended in 1:03:30. After that I have made 2 more 10km and also 2 half marathons. The 31st of December I finish a race of 10km on 53.53 and 12th of januari I did a half marathon (sitges, Spain) in 1:54:25. Now I gonna run my first marathon in Barcelona 15th of March. I gonna keep watching your videos to get more tips and inspiration. And I love the videos of food. I've been vegan for 3 years. Regards from Sandra in Barcelona

Absolutely well done Sarah on a great new pb! 👏🏼 As for the 1:59 achieved by Kipchoge, yes the stage was set for him, yes it benefitted him to have pacers there, yes he may have ran in trainers that perform better than any others, nevertheless it was an incredible feat! Won’t be long until the sub 2 happens in a legitimate race. Looking forward to seeing how long you can keep that 2:50/ 4:34 pace for. 😳😂

    Congratulations to Sarah on her PB and nice pacing support by you .. the INEOS 1.59 was indeed a great inspirational event .. myself (hobby runner) and my 10 year old son (who aims to start running 5 and 10K in couple of years) were hooked to the live stream on UA-cam while going through some weekend family work .. it has inspired us a lot and especially Kipchoge's humble attitude and holistic attitude towards this sports .. coming back to you.. if I get a PB at the Tata Mumbai Marathon 2020, you are going to be one of the key contributors to the success 😃

    I don't get all the haters on Kipchoge's 1:59:40...The point was to prove that it's possible...Thought it was hugely emotional and inspirational...And huge kudos to all the pacemakers behind it; thought they did a phenomenal job...
    It's the sort of historic moment you get once in a lifetime...I wasn't alive for Roger Bannister's 4min mile; this was the modern day equivalent of it...

    Great Post and well done on the sub 20! I'm trying for sub 20 too, but currently at 21.17 so still a bit of work to do. Have stepped up training though and started doing intervals. I often think my build prevents me going very fast though. I would say I'm lean, but tall and heavy boned (used to play 2nd row) which I think slows me down. Thought the sub 2hours was a fantastic achievement, though would still like to see a sub 2hour in a marathon, would be great!

    • @SarahPlace

    Do you take gels or any sort of hydration in these kind of runs? I do on runs longer than 20 km (~12.5 mi) but wondering if I shouldn't. Also congrats to Sarah, 19:40 is a great time!!

    • @BenParkes
      @BenParkes  4 роки тому +1

      Only take gels when I’m running for more than 90 mins easy, or will use them in a session like intervals etc. Rarely have liquids unless it’s hot, or running over 2 hours. That is a bit of an exception though. Try different things and see what works for you.. we’re all a little different 🙂

    Well done Sarah on the PB, who cares if there is negativity in relation to Kipchoge, those of us that run know the majority of the negativity comes from people who have never put themselves through any physical adversity in their lives, let alone left it all out there in pursuit of their dreams. Long live the dreamers, fast or slow we are all our own heroes.

    Haven’t done a Parkrun since 13 April and my PB is 32:04, but would love to get it down to sub 30.
    I have also signed up for the Winter Run 10K which takes place in London in February next year, so need to get my arse in gear.....
    I think the sub 2hr marathon was brilliant, it shows that it can be done under control circumstances, but the challenge is to achieve it under proper marathon racing conditions but that will be for the next generation of runners to achieve.
    With regards to trainers, it is like the Speedo swimsuits that were ultimately banned as all swimmers sponsored by Speedo won, Will the same thing happen with all the Nike sponsored athletes with this new trainer but then it just means that al the sponsors and trainer makers will have to up their game and create similar or better technology, but the question that has to be asked how technology is too much?

  • @videowatcherdeluxe

    Congrats to Sarah for your PB. Regarding the shoes: I agree, they need to setup some rules here. We've seen the same thing happen in swimming several years ago. At the end they've forbidden the swimming suits in 2010 when more and more records were just broken because of better and better suits rather than the athletes becoming stronger.
