I have shamefully used this absolute lie to disguise a rubbish time…”Pacing my buddy to a new PR”…😂

"people do love a bad superhero movie" sums it all up nicely!

Thanks for the tips! Will be sure to use these before my next race!

Wait a sec gotta get my notepad 😂

Would you recommend adding a double excuse day on some days as well? I keep seeing the elites doing it

C’mon…nobody liked the Green Lantern movie 😉

Is caffeine fasting really a thing? Asking for a friend.

Brilliant, as always. I find I've done so much of this without even trying :)

So you're saying your excuses start at the same time as your taper?

A few sniffles and coughs go a long way

Shouldn't you at least get the new NDO poster???

Thanks a lot for ruining the 6th Sense for me. I was planning to watch but won’t now that you spoiled it for me. Thanks a lot.

“Caffeine fast” is the only excuse you need for not setting a PR. All the subsequent headaches and irritability …☕️☕️. This is blasphemy.

If it weren't for the wind...

Vital to get all the excuses out in the holding pen even to the random stranger next to you.

Well, I was older on race day than during training.

That pesky Norovirus is going around. You may have had a touch of it and not known, or thought you were exposed to it while traveling to the race.

Reminds me of a serious runner Hoka sponsored to travel to travel to UTMB just to DNF. 😂

What is this "caffeine fasting" of which you speak? Also...shout out to my PT doc for helping to get me to the start line! ;)

Doing the Napa HM in early March and my coach already provided my excuses because it’s a “tuneup” for Boston (humble brag already inserted) and he wants me to run easy for at least the first half (hobby jog?) since it’s my “B race” 😂

Kofuzi carries the camera stick to put his viewers first and never uses it as an excuse (and doesn’t need to). But others do it for him nevertheless 😂 with all the comments about “if you just ditched the camera…”

The Excuse Matrix is so powerful. It should be adopted for work settings. “I am not the smartest person in the room, so I worked extra hard and pull some all nighters to deliver this project.”

I’m in this position now! Funchal Marathon on Sunday 🫣 maybe too late for this strategy! 😂

Taking notes ✍️✍️✍️😅😅😅

This is educational!

Don't forget: "haven't been sleeping well due to weird insomnia" ! Even if you PR you can still bring up the hurdles that you had to overcome (to insinuate that you probably would've PRed by even more if it had not been for all these disadvantages and things that weren't even optimized!). Sure, it would be a humblebrag, but make sure you cloak it with enough #vulnerability and hashtag #authenticity🏃🏻‍♂🙌

Bruce Willis was dead?? WTF!!!! Thank for the Spoiler 😜

I'm so glad you posted this. I have a big race coming up in a few weeks and realize I need to do a better job of reminding everyone that I have toddlers that require a TON of my time and attention.

Is this inspired by the another serious runner Eric Floberg? I remember one excuse where the non-PR was due to the hilly route in Boston. So it actually was a Grade Adjusted PR.

You could add: pretend to put in effort coaching underprivileged children to their 5K PR and make that the reason why you are "loving investing in others even if it's at the detriment of your own training". You'll never have to provide proof because you are protecting the privacy of those kids and it adds virtual signaling bonus points.

Excellent content but it comes too late for my 20 mile trail race this Sunday with potentially icy conditions...

Clothes is pretty worn out, are you even a runner?

You look tired in this video

You are Netflix show worthy, but please tell me you don't really road run with your back to oncoming traffic like at the top of this video, that's just B roll footage stuff, right?

Have fun on race day! Dont forget to make them record yourself from an e bike✌️

I set my PR in an 8K cross-country race after tripping on a tree root and falling down the one hill in north Jersey and getting water on the knee. I _always_ bring that up when discussing that one ;-)

Notes taken.

In the movies there is heartwarming music to reinforce the hero's "vulnerability" and it gets everyone right in the feels. Cultivating, planting, and tending excuses is the highest form of the serious runner's art.

Hahaha love the content/excuses schedule!

Another great video!

0:49 Yo! What the heck is that pen grip?!

Thank you for this review So mad they rip on the side every time.

Parkrun on Christmas Day!

😂😂😂

Most dedicated serious runner I have ever come across

@franklehouillier8865 You know me-my largest gains are from bragging about my accomplishments from the perspective of my late age group 😂

I largely agree with this post and find that it works for me at least. While studies show that there are only mild marginal gains to be had from bragging, I was able to BQ from similar advice. I think that even though Josh Kerr seems to mostly be bragging about his haircut and cybertruck in his latest video, he too would argue that there are performance gains to be had.

who the hell uses min per mile😅 change it to km

Strava is a crap.. I deleted my account last year!
