Love that comment Mark!! Thanks for sticking with me!

Thanks Ryan!! Great to meet you!! YWS.

Please don’t do that Mack.

Thanks True Red!! The castle thunderboxes were far superior, shame the bog roll was made of parchment.

First time?? That’s a great time Andrew. Rest those legs. Won’t be your last race I’m sure. Catch you for a warm up soon!!

Thanks Rob!! Well chuffed you like the channel. Have a look at some of the other videos. I will start doing your head in after a while...

"Mike" loved it. (Clearly he sees me as no threat - even more irritating)

I would LOVE to do a MARM pod. But I think I’d need some of the boys from Kazakhstan to buy me an audience!!

I could dine out for years on a fact like that. The sheer knowledge that you have probably groomed a spot where Maid Marion's arse had spent 3 months. Great memories.

Thanks Lapras. You need to make a formal complaint to get this sorted. Harsh, but hopefully a dismissal if you do it properly.

Andy - you’re a true sport. Great to finally meet you too. Catch up with you before long. Enjoy the Malvern. It’s brilliant!!

Nice to put a face to a name Andy 😁 Quality warm up too 🤣

@@racheld1844 that was one way to really embarrass the kids! I was also chatting away to you when you were timekeeping at arrow valley last week blissfully unaware that I knew who you were because of your KZfaq channel but you had no clue who I was! 😂 Keep up the great work with your channel too Rachel - really enjoy your videos!

@@andrewgoldsby 🤦🏻‍♀️ watching the video I thought I recognised you. Hope time keeping goes ok tomorrow 🙂 I was distracted by the brain effort of getting the timing right but also I got harassed at parkrun on Saturday so wasn’t really thinking straight.

@@racheld1844 oh no! That is not great being harassed - hope you were ok! It’s supposed to be fun so that is not on at all! See what fun is in store tomorrow…it’s going to be busy as sole local ones have already cancelled due to wet courses! See you soon and look forward to your next video…you’ve tempted me with Babbs Mill and those waffles!

Thanks Paul. Tough old course.1h20m with a full bladder? I'm starting to feel Mike style threatened about that.... Now he's famous - give him a shout at BRAT. He will love it. Hope hip gets better soon mate!

Rory is fast becoming my favourite person. How big's the fridge?

Massive 🤣

Thanks Helen!! Catch you next time I’ve no doubt!!

Thanks Andy... Will try. Always open to any content suggestions. ParkRun was a doozy.

Thanks Ian. After the Ultra, those Warwick gradients were like a home access ramp.... (lying to myself. It was tough)

Thanks Nicolle!! Too kind. Went to the Albert Dock once. Cracking. Yep - might start getting adventurous with the new places. Start at Chester and work my way up?

Thank you!! Subscribe anyway. I might not sing again.

@@middleagedrunningman I did, and I'm really enjoying catching up on your old videos. No more singing so far 👍

Thanks for continuing to climb onboard the banter bus Jay…..(and excusing the actual running content!)

Threw him right under the bus Dunkles.

Bloody hell Claire. There are some absolute shockers in and amongst the back catalogue. If there is anything likely to speed up your return to fitness it’s the prospect of watching them!! (Thanks for watching)

Thought I’d sing one of your favourites mate.

Third?? Generous Mack. Nice to get the momentum going in time for the crowds at the end!!

Thanks Stephen!! Yes, the parkrun vid seemed to be a surprise hit. Not sure why. Did another one at the weekend. We will see if it’s got legs!

Thanks Prof. you’re a legend!

There’s only one legend here, and that would be you, sir! Keep throwing down those mean paces 🏃🏻‍♂️👍😎

A quote for a poster! (If I’d got one) Tell a friend Bob. That will do!!

Thanks Sarah. NOT GONNA LIE. I love that comment. ONE HUNDRED PERCENT.

@@middleagedrunningman did I use it correctly? Am I young now? 🤞🏻

You nailed it.

Kindred spirits Gary!! Thanks for watching!!

Thanks!! It’s a classic!! (Jacket not the video)

Think I would have had to spit in his face at that point. 2.54 is a quality time. 2.35?? He knew what he was doing. “Prove it.” Would have been a strong response. Good job you were with AQA. If that had been at Ed Excel it would have gone off.

Thanks for watching Jonathon!!! Like and share with your pals. Recovery is a struggle, but I will only eat overnight oats every morning.and I’ve stopped drinking alcohol. Doing a video about it on Friday - make sure you watch!!.

Thanks Smart Tigger. NOT GONNA LIE - great to hear you enjoyed the vid. ONE HUNDRED….

Parked in the multi story mark. Wanted to walk to the secret toilet…. But next year….great tip!!

Not so sure prof. Marathon is my tricky distance. 3h16 is my PB…. Only ever done 2….

Trust me - on a flat course (e.g., London) you will, at a minimum run 2:59! That’s a minimum! Your half marathon performances are way too superb and predict better than that! Of course, you may need to focus on how you structure your 20-22 mile long runs and have a few sessions where last 10 miles are run at MP or even faster… Not sure what your weekly mileage is, but if it’s 60 (or if it’s 60+ during marathon build up), you’re absolutely going to smash marathon! I say this as someone who’s ran faster marathon than you but way slower half marathons than you! You got the hard part down - speed! Now, it’s just about mileage/volume! 👍🤞

Lizzi. You start down this road with Mike and we are finished. Over. Done. (Overreacted. Sorry)

😂😂😂

Thanks Simon. Yep. No flies on Andy. Think he read it….

An interview! 😊

David. You are officially a member of the MARMY Army. A Private at present, but I see you rising quickly through the ranks. Thanks for watching!!

Get practising Pete…..

@middleagedrunningman The missus is becoming a MARMETTE.. All I've heard is "When's MARM posting the Warwick vid"..🙈 Oh I'm practising 🫣😆

Already on it MARM...🫣😆

Marmette!!! 😂😂😂

🫣🤫😆​@@middleagedrunningman

Welcome Paul. No evacuating. Women and children first.

Hi Rob. I loved a TDK cassette. I sometimes went BASF if I was feeling flash. Loved that video. Adams arsing about in the woods, with bits of the film popping up every now and agin. That's the blueprint for success. (Followed closely by Wet Wet Wet.)

Will make sure I set aside a poncho for you Hearty, when my poncho deal gets over the line.

Reluctantly so…. (See what I did there?)

It’s simply not on.

@@middleagedrunningman we need 'designated workplace runner' badges.. Could be marmy army merch methinks although us wimminfolk might need an extra initial (be very careful how you reply to that)

😂😂😂😂

Loving that Eddy. If he starts a channel, I genuinely think I would have to start letting his tyres down on a daily basis. Great shout on the ParkRun crowd. Need to keep doing them to satisfy the PR crowd.

There's a channel. Actually, there's a BBC 1 series.

@@middleagedrunningman I could only find Middle Aged Running Nun, but that was pushing some dodgy habits

Going into work with some fresh stuff wrapped in foil…..

No queue. No pong. Soft roll. Doesn’t get any better.

Thanks Andrew…. Mike’s actually quite nice… But you’re right. Screw him.

Thanks Simon!! Thanks for sticking with the channel!!

also seriously do you have a rough plan of your training each week , that would be useful, perphaps a video on that ? i suppose now you do enough events not to have to worry too much ? but its good to see how someone gets from point A to B on their running journey , anyway a cracking time , you'll be under 1hr20 soon 👍amazing 🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️, sorry about the English my school was crap , dont worry about your competition either he won't pass his probation 😃😃

If I’m completely honest, I don’t really understand training, how much, how little, how often, different paces etc. I used to run 6 miles on a Saturday morning relatively quickly, and 13 miles every Sunday a bit slower. I only really started to shave real time off my races when I lost a bit of weight, stopping drinking wine the night before and bought better trainers. But, going to start doing more research on training. Will def do a video on it.

well your times are even more special then , imagine what you could do after some speedworkouts and some cross training etc , shame to knock the wine on the head but my running coach swears by a pint of guinness - best part of the program if you ask me 😀, i also lost a few stone by running so its here to stay for me 👍❤love the channel , chapeau mon ami

What with that and the poncho, it was like HotBox Yoga.

Honestly. Not. A. Euphemism…..

Thanks for the correction MARM - keep up the great work
