I took an elite runner to her first parkrun - Reading

I hate Garmin sometimes .

Anyone who is elite at any sport makes it look effortless. Phily was gliding along like a catamaran skimming over the waves. I am a big guy from weights and yes I can run 5K but I am more like a battleship ploughing through the sea, it's a massive effort for big guys to run distance. Well done Sir!

what a fun adventure

a six minute mile is absolutely insane

Yes Reading!!!!

She really is elite. And I guess the real insight is her positive attitude and happy nature. I'm not trying to be dismissive of her determination and skill. But it strikes me that it just makes it easier if you can hold onto that kind of spirit while you run. That's what struck me.

Great Job!

unproductive lol

that watch is a bully

She was like a Eurofighter Typhoon at stall speed to his Spad at full chat. Hilarious.

is there a prize for 1st place?

If you think about it, 20min 5k is actually slower than her Seville Marathon time pace. So she was running at a pace slower than her marathon pace for the 5K. Its crazy what these elites can do.

“Bring your own press officer”. I was LOLing!

Hi from Australia, check out my hairdo on my 100th parkrun video on my channel 🏃

I have never done any running (except at school - I quite enjoyed doing the long runs when I was a teen).
I was considering doing the local Barry Island Parkrun. I have joint issues and need to build up from walking to running. Do you think that it is a good idea?
You made it look so easy...

Love this! ❤️ shows a real humbleness, love of running and kind spirit from elite athlete. I'm new to running and absolutely love to see people who run for the joy of it x

I have an Apple Watch (I think series 5)
I am starting my marathon training (your plan) next week. ♥️
I’ve been told my Apple Watch won’t have the battery life to last the entire marathon… so that being said I want to do my entire training with the Watch I will use for the race day.
What would you say is the best Watch for my marathon training/ race day ?? (Dubai marathon)

I know you must get asked this lots so I’m sorry !!

LOVE YOUR VIDEOS !!! ♥️♥️♥️♥️

Yeah, the old Garmin yelling 'unproductive' schtick!

Such a cool video

Did she breath at all? ;)

I've been running parkrun for more than 5yrs now but every parkrun is tough regardless ..

Bro I go to that park run 🏃‍♀️

would love to see what time Phily would do on her own,....we parkrun here in Australia as well.

Love your vlogs. So much fun and motivating ♥️♥️

Watch throwing shade was hilarious!

Late to the party but will never forget the weather on that second lap!

First video I've seen, came randomly across my recommendations, consider me subscribed!

Parkruns sound great, but 9 am is just the worst!!! =(

BBC Sports needs to give this guy his own show.

We have lots of Parkruns in Norfolk - checkout Sheringham Park and Blickling Hall probably the most scenic Parkruns you’ll run. Also Great Yarmouth - one of the hardest.

What an awesome, inspiring video. Thanks so much :)

Now 400,000! Brilliant result.

Heck I wish to have this in Malaysia!!!!

Coming to this late, but Phily's watch reading "Unproductive" at the end of the 5K had me 🤣😂 Great job on the sub-20!

"phily wasnt even breathing" LMAO

Unproductive😂😂😂😂😂😂

Great video! You just got another subscriber. Thank you!🤩

Amazing channel .

Nice work dude

Philly wasn't even breathing 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Well done.

Her unproductive is a death sentence for most of us.

Elite runner and elite technique. Her stride is perfect.

haha "unproductive" my watch would have had fireworks and a trophy and would have said personal best. Well atleast i can run 5km 🙂

lol nice "unproductive" run

Enjoyable video. What camera were you using?

That’s me in the blue raincoat! I had a friend in my year group come up to me today and I ask if I did Parkrun in the past and I said yes. Had no idea about this video but was so funny to watch back, I remember refusing to let you two overtake! Great running though and a great video :)
