Definitely not just you. Anyone that I end up running with for even a short amount of time I feel a connection/bond with and I look to give them a fist bump at the end if I can find them!
This should be the gold standard for all the race recaps. So happy for you Alvin! Thanks for taking us down the memory lane and I loved hearing about every detail leading up to the race, during the race and afterwards.
Hey man congrats. I showed up in a lot of the late race clips (guy in the “Daddy’s Money” singlet) and finished 2:50:0x. Happy you had a better finish than I did!
Congrats on the sub-2:50 and great job on the recap video. You captured the feelings of many of us marathon runners so well. Especially liked hearing about bonding with others who are only running near you for portions of the race. After my Tokyo finish several people came up to me and spoke about how they had followed right behind me the whole race, as if we were buddies without having spoken a word yet.
nice storytelling -- I could feel some emotions welling up in me when you described the final spurt of the marathon 🥺. and good job making sure all the poops came out of you beforehand. may the running winds be with you in Boston and the 100K!
I really enjoyed watching this vid and hearing the wonderful insights you have shared. I’m watching this from Melbourne in Australia and preparing for my first marathon in October. Your comments and learnings have added to my knowledge build. Congratulations - an inspiring story!
congratulations and a really good marathon time for sure, I was running Grandmas as well this year as well, and yes it was very cold and wet at the end. During the race I found it perfect temperature at that time. thanks on sharing
Awesome race, Alvin. I was on the right side at 17:21 in the white singlet and neon Alphafly's. Wish I had known you were there. Could have paced with you.
Congrats Alvin, so proud of you. So many losses and BQ Attempts throughout this journey but now you have officially done the impossible. Have fun in Boston, now it's my turn, getting that BQ Attempt at CIM thus coming December 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Soo TL;DR is miss a flight, inhale a bunch of spaghetti, and live like a college student again to Boston qualify? :D Great job homie, we all knew you had it in ya, and glad the marathon gods finally gave you an official result to show for all your strong diligence and effort. Looking forward to what the 100K brings :D
wow!!! huge grats!! so awesome! So it sounds like you're going to do Boston? There is some chance I'm going to do Boston as well, maybe we could pace together. I would like to break 2:50 as well if conditions are good. Looking forward to seeing you again, it would be nice to catch up!

Thanks! I use the a7siii, but during the actual runs I either use the GoPro or Go3s!
