- In this video, we're unveiling the London Marathon: an epic journey through one of the world's most dramatic cities. From the exhilarating start to the unforgettable finish, this video will leave you overwhelmed with the power of the London Marathon.
This video is the perfect way to get inspired for this year's London Marathon. From the incredible crowds to the incredible scenery, this video is a must-watch for anyone looking to run in one of the world's greatest races!
Running the London Marathon on a wet Sunday morning unfortunately it wasn't to be my best running performance watch and see how the day unfolds 
Thanks for this. It's important for prospective marathoners to see cautionary tales of going out too fast beyond ability. It just leads to torture and is no way to run a marathon. You showed grit, so well done!
👍 absolutely! you have to give a Marathon distance a lot of respect if you do things normally work out
Congrats Ian! I ran London yesterday and loved re-living it with you here. Wish you a speedy recovery and all the best. Please keep up the great work and the videos coming.
Well done to you as well hope your legs are not too bad!!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed the vlog
Great vid pal, have loved the content leading up to London!
Thank you glad you are enjoying my vlogs
You really did a great job in capturing the mood of the day! Well run race Ian! Thank you for sharing - I hope to get there one day!
Thanks, mate glad you enjoyed this video. I will get there training starting soon after a much needed week off
That guy with the breathing was Brazilian by the look of it. Must be an effective way of clearing a path!
I sure could hear him!!
😂 I was just in front of you in the video, I wanted to murder that guy! Made me speed up to get away from him though!! 😂
Makes me laugh now but at the time the same just wanted to get away
Hope your recovering well !!
Well done Ian, great effort. 👏👏
Enjoyed tracking you during the race.
Thank you Paul glad you enjoyed!
Great effort, this was my first marathon and I watched your videos leading up to it and that definitely helped me to visualise what I was going into. Keep up the good work 💪🏼
I am pleased it helped you thanks for the feedback and I hope you had a great Marathon!
A grand effort that after your problems. It must be nice to have that as your local race.
The last marathon this year which would qualify for GFA 2024 is the Bedford Autodrome one on 24th September. I'm thinking about it *if* i can get the long runs up.
Definitely is just 10 min to the start nice not have to wake up early and sleep in my own bed!!
Thanks, I might look at Bedford 👀
I've noticed one thing with your runs: You're happy with your runs, but always think you could have done better on the day, sound like myself.
Take it from me it doesn't get any easier at our age, I take it your around my age lol, you are fast mate and a fantastic runner, so what I'm getting at is always be happy with just completing it, that's an achievement in itself.
All the best.
Thank you for your kind words and advice! It's true that as we get older, it can become more challenging to achieve certain goals in running. I appreciate your perspective and reminder to be content with just completing a run. It's important to celebrate the effort and dedication we put into our training, regardless of the outcome. I will keep that in mind and continue to find joy in the process. Thanks again for your support and best wishes!
Excellent time well done
Thank you
This was my first LM and I have to say the crowd were even better than I thought they would be, even despite the rain, unfortunately everything was going well until mile 20 then the quad cramp kicked in but I got round with a PB 👍🏻
Congratulations on your PB good you toughed it out!! 💪
Great stuff Ian, enjoyed following the journey! Well done!
Thanks, Chris
Great footage of the race Ian. And congrats for toughing it out and finishing it. I know it's probably a little too early, but you could do Abingdon mara in October - quite fast I've heard but often rubbish weather.
I am thinking about Abingdon I just need to decide if I want to go for a GFA for London next year that would mean a September Marathon as the cut off is the end of September
Huge congrats! You are so fast given the wet conditions. I am from San Francisco and planning to run the 2024 London Marathon. Certainly I cannot match your time but hope to enjoy such an energetic race.
Thank you so much for your kind words! The London Marathon is an incredible event, and I'm sure you'll have an amazing time participating in it. It's not always about the time, but rather the experience and the energy of the race. Enjoy the journey, train well, and make the most of the incredible atmosphere in London. Best of luck and I hope you have a fantastic race in 2024!
Great video! London 2023 was my marathon #32 and I was one of the pacers from the blue start in wave 13. It was such a great event! I finished 4:39:34 as sub 04:40 pacer...
That's an amazing amount of Marathons!!
Also doing a great job pacing I use to use the pacers years ago before I was able to pace myself it's something I like to do in the future
Well done mate! I’m glad you beat the whistler over the line!
Thanks should have heard it in the tunnel along Thames Street 😂
Well done Ian. I also ran on Sunday and didn't hit my time either but in the grand scheme I'm happy to have finished with a 15 min pb. Love London marathon.
Well done John on your PB👏👏you must be very happy with that hope your recovery is going well !!
Well done Ian, I know it might not have been the time you wanted, but to complete your home marathon is always good. Great vlog by the way, almost felt like being part of the race!
Thanks, London is great for me just 10 min to Blackheath so very convenient. Glad you enjoyed
Well done. From my point of view, an amazing time. I too did London and so it was great to see your video.
Glad you had an amazing time and hope you're recovering well
Well done Ian, great mentality not getting down about the time. Hope the subscribers come for you too.
Cheers mate grateful for your comments 👍
Great footage Ian. Well done!!
Thank Paul even though I couldn’t really see what I was filming with the sun and sweat in my eyes 🥵
Well done 🙏👍🏻💪 I told u , be relax and u enjoy ur run and ur day! U was very strong!
Thanks, I did enjoy it when I decided to not stress about the time
@@inmruns u dont need stress man 👍🏻 dont never stress about time, if u are in shape for specific time u need be calm in start and focus and find the pace after 1km 👍🏻
Come to Kenya Kaptagat in January and train .. u can stay free in my place , I can help u in ur training and guide u around there .. meet some worldclass runners .. we can go to Iten to for training .. but Kaptagat are nore calm and quiet with big forest and car free roads👍🏻
That's an incredible offer sounds amazing I appreciate your kind invitation
Unfortunately with family and my business commitments, it's just not possible at this time maybe in the future Though
@@inmruns ok 👍🏻 I understand.
Well done great effort
Thank you 👍
Great video, subscribed👍 brilliant time and liked your reality of running a marathon. I've done lots of halfs and have another four booked this year including great north and Royal parks. So I think next year I will take the leap to a full marathon. 👍
Thanks appreciate that!!
It's a amazing distance to run your never forget your first marathon so go for it, Simon!! It's great training as well
Well done Mate, brilliant time too you should be very pleased.
Thank you I was a little disappointed at first because I know I am capable of a lot faster time
Brilliant effort

That’s the funniest comment 😂

Great running buddy and its so tough to keep going when you know your goal has gone, even more so when you are filming and documenting your feelings as you go. Take heart and keep going as you showed true grit and you will get GFA in next marathon! As we all know, the marathon takes no prisoners!
Thank you shame about the weather as well hope you had a good run look forward to watching your Vlog
Yes already thinking about a marathon before the cut off date for GFA
@@inmruns it was a superb run as you may of seen from video! When is cut off date?
End of September I believe
Most would be very happy with that. It's all good. Best wishes on the next.
Thank you mate

Well done Ian for getting round and doing it!
Thank you my friend 👍
Great run Ian, running a marathon is my dream. My 1st marathon will be this December
That's great I hope your training goes well
Great video! Great time even though it wasn’t the exact time you set off for you wanted. I next to share a compound I absolutely adore is of l-glutamine it promotes speedy recovery from strenuous exercise. Run the arnica cream on your calf you will get relief it’s amazing! Thanks for the mention happy it helped you!
Thanks again Mark the blisters really did hold up even with wet feet!! Will look into the recovery stuff
@@inmruns I get it from pure source nutrition online rather than a supermarket I prefer organic too
Same again this year??? I've managed to finally get a ballot place, so it will be my first London Marathon this year!
Remember to stay positive, stay focused, and most importantly, have fun! You've put in the hard work, now it's time to reap the rewards. Enjoy the race and make sure to savor every moment. Good luck!
Strong running Ian. Great time no matter what way you cut it.
Thanks your right I did have to tough it out when the pace slipped away
Congrats
Thank you! I appreciate your congratulations.
Well done !
Thanks
Great video u mentioned a changing tent were do i find this x andy Weymouth my 1st London marathon inb16 days x
Yes, you'll find them after you have collected your kit bag, keep to the right and head toward Horse Guards Parade. In the past, this has been where the meeting points are as well. I'm not sure whether that's still the same case unless we're changing tent locations. I would recommend checking the race guide when it comes out this week.
Thanks and good luck enjoy the day
Hello! just e-mailed you about using this video in our BBC coverage of the London Marathon this year. Would be amazing if you could come back to me as soon as you can! thanks. Love the videos. Chees, Phil Hughes.
Did you write the descirption and title with ChatGPT?
About 50/50, it's a big help.
Been watching and wasn't subbed, changed now
Thanks 👍
Well done mate, did you raise any money for a charity?
Thank you! No, I did that many years ago, but I just can't keep asking people for money, especially these days.
