Definitely think he has found his knack. Really doing well this season. Believe he could break 30 for 10 k

Dude, I've been watching you for several years, and this is the strongest you've looked on film. 14:22 is nothing to scoff at!

Now we know a 18:30 in a turkey suit equals a 14:22 without. 🦃💨💨

14:22 is seriously fast for a road 5k having to dodge walls of pedestrians. I feel you can definately break 14 on a track.

Great race man! Those crowds definitely slowed you down you got a sub 14 in you for sure!

Shout out to Allie, definitely the MVP!

You did really, really well. Particularly with going around a few hundred people. I am thinking with that effort if you were on a track, maybe 14:10 or under? Well done. Kudos to Allie for filming while on a bike.

Okay dang! Very well executed and pretty quick for a crowded open course.

Glad you finally had a decent race, congrats. Seriously, please do more of these types of runs (without a costume). Folks like to watch serious efforts especially if they have been watching you throughout your training.

Literally sitting here with tears in my eyes So proud of you Spence!!!!! Showed great fitness and even more mental strength 😮

That sub 14 is definitely possible on a fast track. Shoutouts Allie.

The change from "He was not paid to say this" to "I was paid to say this" Is hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

Outstanding effort Spencer!!! Well done and great kick at the end. Fun video to watch! Shout out to Allie!

honestly bro you are a really quick and a inspiration for me as a middle school runner.

Awesome job! Keep up the good work and you’ll do amazing things

Shout out to Allie for filming like a boss!! 🎉🎉🎉

Super happy for you Spence! Great race broski!!!!!

Absolutely awesome race to build some confidence. Huge race Spencer glad you went out and really pushed hard

Awesome job. Been watching since 2020 and it’s great to see the journey.

First of all, shoutout to Allie! Great commentary as always! Second, way to show out, Spence! The time is great but beating out a majority of the other competition… that’s a MAJOR bonus 👏

Dang if you keep up the training you have been doing and don't start to overtrain you are going to be the fastest you have ever been. I think you are making it past the hump and found your way of training. This should show you that you are not close to done, five k pr already too. So entertaining to watch the progress

Great camera work Allie 😇 Loved the commentary of the race Spencer. Great video all in all. Hope to see more.

People with strollers is one of those things that you're not really allowed to moan about but, at the same time, you really want to moan about. Just go a few rows back.

Proud of you and stoked for what’s to come ❤

Nice race, Spence, and I am glad you were happy with the effort. Motivation is huge, as is staying healthy injury free. Hopefully, you can stay healthy, in which case I see a good year ahead in 2024 in the mile/5k. I'd also love to see you do a 3k and maybe try to get under 7:50. Oh, and shout out to Allie for enduring all the people to get good film footage. I hope she's healthy and training well too.

Wow!!! Spence, great run. You look super quick.

Great race Spence! Great pacing Waleed! Fun race.

wow, the number of people out on the race route was crazy! you hung with him and didn't quit. good to watch you hang with him and not back-off. nice job, Spence. love your confidence.

Great Job, a PR in the fall is a good indication of things to come in the Spring 🔥🔥

Lookin relaxed at PR pace. Great sitandkick on Waleed

Well done Spencer! That was a real solid effort despite the human traffic you had to circumnavigate. It is good harbinger of things yo come!

What a quick race🎉 congratulations on all those great results

Your best video, I think. And a an encouraging run for you, I'm sure. The stoller dude is such a cluck.

Hell yeah! You’re back now! Excited to see the sub 14

Wow, that’s a heck of an impressive performance!! Glad to see the training paying off.

Shoutout to Allie for being amazing, and great race Spence!

Great video, love the lighthearted trash talk.

Best video I have seen this week.

Great time Spencer!!!! Great time with dodging all those people. The sub 14 goal is alive! Wallied's cadence was so much lower than you.

Fun video, good sport of the brooks guys, and well done on the performance! Oops, almost forgot, well done Allie for keeping on the bike :)

Nice run!!! Congrats!

That stroller being in front is really annoying

Really solid run Spence. Good job

Persistence in training is starting to pay off massively... keep up the grind, 14:22 is incredible!

Solid day! Glad to see you get a good race in👊🏻

It’s coming together! Great race

Nice run! Looked fun.

Congratulations, had to feel good beating some Beasts

Great run Spencer!

Lets go Allieeee. Great run Spencer!

WOW congrats on an amazing time!!

Love the race videos

What a race!! Great video

“Can’t be in that Brooks picture” 😂😂

Great video and thanks for the inspiration!

Insane pace despite the zigzagging! That comment about running with a person and sticking with them is so accurate. I was going for a sub 1h20 on a half this fall and was on pace through 10k, but then a guy surged to pass me and I let it break me instead of matching his move, wound up running a 1h21

GREAt effort beating Waleed it takes a lot of guts to stay in the race when you feel like backing off. GREAT camerawork Allie O

Have to say that was very impressive especially weaving through other park users like that. Got to be your best run in some time.

This is actually amazing for you Spence.

Wald runs with grace. he looks like he's comfortable running at that pace. good job keeping up with him.

Great race,great time Spencer

Wow fantastic great run great time considering your dodging Inbetween pedestrians your in great shape really enjoy your vlogs with Ollie

“Shoutout to Allie”. She ROCKS!

He's back. Re-subscribed. Loving The Sub-4 Story hair.

Should be able to hit 13:59 very soon👀

Looked like fun I haven’t raced in a while, but this video definitely made me want to race again🔥

THAT WAS A FAST RACE,, GREAT JOB! FUN VIDEO!

Great race!

actually quite solid. spencer's lurkin

Phenomenal race Spencer

Great video!

Great race 5k dude.

You're a monster and thank you for that advice and inspiration. You walk the walk. Or should I say you run the run. lol

Woah the beatings and beat down all out beats

Hell yeah Spence!!!!

He's back baby! HE'S BACK!!!!!

Some awesome editing lately

Let's Go Spence!

Thats such a good time on the roads!

lets gooooo. such a busy course lol

Pointing at a dude and calling him a bitch even in a joking manner is wild

Well done Spencer.

Spence this was exactly what i meant when i said loosen up and have fun. Now its time to have fun and also win. i think you should have won this event. Next time you stick the the person in first. And I'm gonna do the same. My next race i dont care if im the only one taking it serious. I'm going to set the track on fire

14:22 in this kind of condition is INSANE. Imagine how fast you can run in a normal race.

Finally. Making us wait 😢

Nice one!

After this, I will only be impressed with sub-14 if you do it in crocs

GREAT video

Great video

I think you may have suprised yourself, with respect to evidence of your level of fitness. Running with someone with similar fitness - was helpful, as was your mindset of hanging on. Your pace was fairly even (second mile could have been a bit faster) - so, you have pretty good strength and the last part - showed that even though you were 'hurting', you had an excellent kick. That shows you had quite a bit left - and could have possibly tapped into that energy and distributed it through the race. I think with longer races like this - to really drop that time down 30 to 45 seconds or so (which this race shows that you are capable of) will involve you learning how to 'suffer'. You were hurting (but did not give into your body telling you to slow down to maintain better comfort). You probably demonstrated something that I have not seen before in all the time watching your channel - you kept pushing throughout the race. I think that for you to make a much bigger leap - you will need to go to the deeper pain cave. You made a mental breakthrough - that will benefit you in future races. I think you even suprised Allie.

Nice camera work, Allie

Yeah Allie !!!

What do I need to do to break 17 my first race in the fall? It's going to be my last year in highschool XC and I wanna break 16 by the end of the season. Any tips?

Shoutout to Allie :) Great work on the bike!

Damn G! 🔥🦾

Man, you definitely should feel good about this. I hope and pray you stay injury free, because if you do, I think you'll have an outstanding 2024. At the least, you'll probably break 4:00 and 14:00.

4:25 thx for the advice!

You have to love open courses.

14:22 This is what I did in the first 5 km of a 10 km race, and in the last 5 km my soul went out with it

I was at this race it was really cool seeing all the brooks beasts guys!
