keep the content for the average runner Aubrey. It is nice to watch people doing sub-3 marathons but 99% of us need the content like yours which is for the average runner for real

I’m training for my 1st marathon as well… wish you the best… 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

love your content, because I feel related to you in many ways and love your good vibes as well, I'm also on my journey to return to run a marathon. Good look, and keep up

Love the videos! Great quality. Looking forward to seeing you smash your marathon. Thanks for brining us along

You are so right, really like the content. It feels more real when you can relate to the struggle 😅 it’s fun to see super fast people aswell, But to see normal strong 💪 guys struggle in the workouts and then see the improvments in the journey motivates me aswell to go out end give my all and try my best, even if it’s a 25 min 5k or 5 hour marathon 😅 running takes time to improve sometime, so try to enjoy the moment you are in aswell ❤

Talk to 'em!!!!

Great running good luck for your journey to your first marathon 👍😀😊

There's no question that especially in the early days when I started out at the start of Covid lockdown, it was definitely the average runners who I found most inspiring on KZfaq! Running KZfaqrs have motivated me sooooo much, especially Kieran Alger from Manvmiles when he ran the entire length of the Danube back in the summer of 2022... following him every day literally changed my life, especially my attitude to one of adventure, and he inspired me to slowly go for bigger and bigger running feats myself, feats I never ever imagined possible for me!! Last week I broke my weekly volume PB hitting 175km with 3600m of altitude in 7 days!!😄💪🏃‍♀💪 (that's 109miles and 11800ft) What a hoot!!!!

You nailed it!! Love the content. Keep it up. Leettttsss goooo!💪💪

Glad to have you in the space, a breath of genuine around here

Love to see average, everyday runners. I'm not fast but I'm trying my best and just enjoy documenting my highs and lows on KZfaq. It's important to be real. Don't change.

Aubrey, you're content is incredible!! From average to average runners!! Love to watch your videos! Big hugs from Brazil!!

Great vid! Keep being real and letting everyone know let’s be open to all things good and bad about running as it really reflects life. 😊

Relatable and amazing! Thanks for being you!

My favourite one so far! I'm loving your journey and agree there isn't too much I can relate to based on my size and speed (heavier and slower than you Aubrey!). I commented under my old account (Fat40s) about how you're the benchmark, and you really are. I'm studying your content and hope to be able to produce such great quality one day. Keep going buddy, you deserve all your success. Massive shout out to mini-Aubrey too!

C or D? Love relatable running content! What is fast is relative and so individual, though, haha. For me, you are fast! It's more your personality and approach that makes you relatable for me. Plus as a fellow KZfaqr, I just admire the production quality! And the accountability creating content and a community around it provides is amazing! It's like this extra fuel that keeps ya going. Oh and congrats to the junior on his race! 👏🏻

Great run Aubrey! Not sure if you are using a heart rate chest strap but if not, try to get you one. It’s more accurate than the watch.

Aubrey you’re creating exactly what the running community on YT is craving. Well done on your run workout and a high five to Josiah. 😊

Love the content. Although I have run a marathon ( 5hrs 18) as a slower runner I really appreciate the honesty you put into these video. Keep up the great work!

Love what you are doing here Aubrey! 💪🏻

Been watching you since last year. Ever since we bumped into each other mid run in the Vitality 10K, we've dragged the 10K from 47 minutes to 42 👀 I will say your vids have definitely put things in perspective whilst I was training for the Manchester Marathon 2024, and you had impact on this. Appreciate you sir! 🎉 (Even for the slightly faster runners!)

New to your your channel, love the video. As a 43 year old dad who is new to running, I just ran mt first Full Marathon at 5:27 and it was the hardest thing I have ever done

Bro I just started so I can’t tell if I’m winning or not but just by playing I’m winning. I’m enjoying this phase it’s like golfing without a scorecard

You're always inspiring, Aubrey . You've found your niche representing a lot of us out here, and I continue to say it's refreshing to see someone who looks like me. Your son is a future star in whatever God has chosen for him. Too cute.

Probably my favourite of your videos so far Aubrey. I feel like you’re a friend I haven’t even met! I’m on the same journey as you, but I’m only at the beginning. I’m even slower than you and much heavier, and I don’t see many people like me on here, so I’m trying to change that. I love Ben, Fordy, Phily and all the rest, but you are the benchmark for me. As a father too, I love that you’re getting your son involved. Keep up the great work.

KZfaq loves you, Aubrey. I’d watch you do a channel painting toy trains or reading the news.

E. all of thee above

My man- more power to you! I like the realness of this👆🏾there will be ups and downs..hopefully more ups than downs but they will be there…do your thing, keep shining out there and (maybe you would run faster if you did not talk during your run😁…just saying) 🤛🏾💪🏾 love your videos too.

Legend Aubs lad ❤

Aubrey Running is a great place!

Aubrey, I’m older, slower, and heavier than you. I am training like crazy just to catch up to you! You are inspiring to a lot of us, I’m sure. Keep it up.

Real is rare these days dude - people love your authenticity and energy. You may not be in the 1% (yet) but you inspire 99% which is way better. Keep being you man 🫶🏻

WAY TO RUN JOSIAH!!! Oh yeah, Aubrey, you're doing great work too. double high-fives! 🤗🤗

Watching and following elites and sub elites is nice but this one relates (age, kg and pace wise :)).

Those HR zones seem very high! In Garmin Connect, if you go More > Garmin Devices > User Settings and then Heart Rate Zones, what is your Max Heart Rate set to (the box at the bottom of that page)? For example mine is 187, and that gives me Z3 at 131-149, Z4 at 150-167, and Z5 is 167+.

The failures relate more than all the achievements. Suffering is universal. The achievements are celebrated even more when you know the struggle.

You don’t do reviews, you do out-of-the-box breakdowns and sell shoes & services. What’s amazing about you is people think they’ve received a shoe review - and never consider you don’t know what any shoe is like at the 100 mile mark, do you? You know the specs, the sales points to hit on from the shoe maker - but that’s about where it ends. That video cover thumbnail of the "no more shoes video", ever consider how not a single pair appeared to have any wear? You’re so engaging it does not matter. In watching you, people lose their sense of awareness of what they’re actually seeing and what they're not (insight or opinion of a shoe after regular actual use) - that's rare talent and very special. Your engaging personality soars over your lack of knowledge about what you’re talking and that’s more valuable anyway. Lots of people know about running, far fewer can project a personality to get someone to disrupt brand loyalty and drive consumerism, get people to buy an overpriced shoe, based really on little more than how you talk about the shoe and present the shoe. You're an example of how ‘what you say’ is nowhere near as important as ‘how you make people feel'. Again, unique and special talent. You're on KZfaq building a promising business and doing an amazing job.

Aubrey we must talk. I’m getting closer to starting my own Chanel dedicated to the older runner. I have 20 years experience and 5 marathons under my belt including 4 of the majors. I believe we are on the same side of the KZfaq fence though our approach to running and training couldn’t be more different but I believe we are never too old to learn and we could learn from each other? I think you said you are contactable through instagram is that correct? I don’t have that at the moment but I could if that’s the way forward and you are willing? You’re filming is fantastic and I have much to learn from you and in return my years of experience maybe of use to you too as you begin your own marathon journey? Let’s talk? Ian

Just curious, do you do any warm up drills prior to your intervals?
