Congrats. Hope you got the chance to enjoy/explore while you were here.

Fantastic video! As for the start - this has unfortunately been an issue for many years with the Blue 1A corral. What I've found is that the best thing that Blue 1A runners can do is to move to Orange 1A (where there is no obstruction at all) or Pink 1A, which is directly behind the Local Competitive Corral. Since there are other runners in the mid-2 hour range in Local Competitive, and Pink joins the Blue course on the right side of 4th Ave, Pink 1A is likely the best place to be if you're aiming to run as fast as possible. Orange is a bit difficult because you end up running a lot of the first 8 miles alone, unless other very fast runners had the exact same idea. Hopefully some day NYRR will fix this issue with Blue 1A by giving the VIP/Sponsor/FDNY/NYPD runners a 10-minute head start, so by the time Wave 1 catches up to them, they don't become a solid impermeable wall causing a major safety hazard on the bridge.

Congrats John, another great achievement. Hope to see more!

Congratulations! First of all, massive well done, what a run! Secondly, I’ve just been directed to your video by someone who said the start was a shambles… it definitely looked that way! Well done on that time, incredible 🎉

Good on you John👍

Saying hi from NY I was the guy in orange with a tag on my chest at 9:45 into this video! Congrats!!!

Congrats!!! I was the guy with the orange out fit at the starting line. Camera above you as you passed the starting line.

Pure class - thanks for this awesome video - congrats on your superb achievement!!

Serious achievement to get the sub 2:30 in NYC never mind the strength to do it in all the other majors. A year you’ll never forget thanks for sharing. Your channel is brilliant. 👏🏻👏🏻 Hon Limerick

You ran so fast ! It looks like you're not even tired after the race, well done 👏

How easy was that? 😏 I can do even better while sitting comfortably in my lounge. Hahhaha

Legend 🎉

I was watching your experience in the NYC marathon when I see you’ve met my brother and his wife who are hug fans of yours. Love the content and Congratulation on a successful run👍

That start looked like hell. So many slow runners at the front wave

Awesome video. Best TH-camr in the business. There is an honesty and sincerity to your videos that are missing from the others.

Well done John. Superb 🎉🇮🇪🙌

Great footage and good job!!

In 2019, Seth James Demoor also had problems getting through the slow VIP runners at the start. He ran a 2:24 that year. Maybe they should have them cordoned off to the side somehow to they won’t interfere with runners wanting to go sub2:30

very inspiring!

Great found a use for that Chicago finisher sheet pretty much useless for anything else

Well done John. I was delighted to see you do sub 2:30. Amazing achievement on that course. Thanks for including me in your video.

Well done👍🏻🙏💪 u are the best! This is why I hate those big marathons. why can they never make those waves better! As u are sub 2.30 runner need start with all those clowns who not are there for a race. U can waiste lot of time and energy first 5-6km if u are too far on startline.

Congrats, great race. Pretty wild start, glad I started in Orange last year, start was much smoother over there.

Great job champ!!

Fantastic stuff John well done

Very Very good

Greggs jacket is fire!

You started in a ridiculous position but you finished top 100.Absolutely insane running esp just after Chicago.The Ireland top looked awesome too.Your living the dream.Congrats.

Well done John! I agree what a hectic start!

Fair play John, that start looked woeful after all that hanging around. Hope you keep the channel going, Limerick running needs to stay!
