    Brother you are a huge inspiration. You inspired me to start running. I started off at 300+ pounds and now going down and in my 220’s and counting and started running recently and just competed in my first 5K and got 29:57 time at a 9:44 pace and I DID NOT STOP RUNNING the entire time and I’m stoked about it.

    There is something about a race morning that I will always love. Waking up at like 330 knowing that three hours away you will be starting a race and in the pain cave. The raised jitters, mixed with the pre-fuel breakfast and caffeine is something else. Being up before everyone else and knowing that you will achieve something great is quite extraordinary and something that mini don’t get to experience so always be grateful

    As a longtime runner myself, I understand that there is a MASSIVE difference between a 4 hour marathon vs. 3:30 vs. your sub-3 vs. this incredible 2:48 in Buffalo. I've often found in my racing, whether it's a 5K or 100M ultramarathon, that the overall number just sounds like a number that doesn't mean much. But then when you break down the splits of what that means, you see people's eyes get big. Put another way, there are so few runners who can even run 6:20 pace for a 5k (roughly a 19:40 5k time). You just did that for an entire marathon. I also appreciate the way you rallied with the hamstring cramp. I've been in that spot myself between mile 22 and 24 and had to stop and stretch. You controlled your mind brilliantly there--because it's so easy to make it almost an existential crisis. You're seeing your goal potentially slip away and it makes you question not only running but other things you're pursuing in life. It can spiral. You still finish, but you can lose minutes those last few miles. You avoided that and found that next level. None of us will ever know how it felt or what you were thinking in that moment, and it's amazing to be on the journey with you through the video--which really highlights that accomplishing an endurance feat like this isn't all sunshine and rainbows...otherwise it would just be about talent and fitness and not the mental component.

    Hell yeah bro. Your ( PR) videos have me tearing up all the time..
    2yrs ago I was faced with getting my leg cut off due to my aggressive diabetes.. So I changed my life to live longer.. I couldn't walk a mile on the road and barely could walk one on the treadmill.. It took me 30mins to walk a mile.. But I kept fighting. And reversed my diabetes. Two weeks ago I walked/ hiked a 20 mile course in 6½hrs.. I think that is good considering that I weighed in my 290s when I did it..
    Very emotional victory

    YES dude.
    Growing up, teachers and other adults shared a sentiment that they "only run if there's something chasing" them. It felt like there was something missing in that mentality, but I couldn't put it into words. Wasn't until I started following your journey that I realized you either run from something or you run toward something; avoid or pursue. The psychological difference is astonishing.

    Thanks for your Sub 2:50 series Nick, I ran my second half marathon this past Saturday, and ended up PRing by 12 minutes! (from 2:16 to a 2:04). Everything felt smooth, I was smiling, and I was able to kick hard the last 200m. I'm sore now lol but being smart, consistent, and having fun with my training was what enabled me to perform well (relative to my ability). I Have been a fan since 2018, and your videos always motivate and educate me when it comes to growing in endurance sports, and also in positive work ethic.

    Dear Nick, I just ran my first marathon this weekend and thanks to this video and your inspiring podcast I managed to pull through! When I watched this two months ago I decided to bring two tablets of electrolytes along the race. It was a very rainy day and I probably hit the first 30k off a bit to fast when an upcoming cramp
    hit me at 32k. It immediately disappeared after I took a tablet. I probably also didn’t drink enough water, a lot of lessons learned after my first marathon! 💪
