Thanks mate :) Yeah, I decided that I needed to give myself the best possible chance. Thought about possibly wearing the camera on a head mount but wan't sure the battery would last and even if it did I don't think the footage would have been that interesting.
Chris, I’m a bit late to the party here viewing your November 10k but just want to thank you and say well done. I’m quite inspired now to perhaps change my build up to 10ks when we come out of lockdown as I’m sitting around 46-47 minutes and I’m keen to get below 45 mins. Thanks again and good on ya. Tone.
Thanks Tone, much appreciated. I've certainly found that the best way to build up to and then achieve a PB is to have a period of base building, running often at an easy pace, followed by a period where with some speed sessions. Worked well for my 10k attempt and hopefully it'll work well during my current 5k training for a sub 20 min 5k.
Well done Chris....never in doubt...Helped myself to a half marathon pb myself this weekend too....Look forward to following your marathon training as I start training for Manchester Marathon on 16th December 👍🏼
Thank you :) It was a great feeling at around 8k, when I knew I was going to do it and was able to put a bit more effort in for those final two kilometres.
Thanks mate :) Certainly is a nicefeeling when the hard work pays off. Wish that happened every time but running isn't quite like that. Trick for me now is to rest a bit and then begin again for Manchester marathon training starting just before Christmas.
You've put a lot of work in. You didn't smash it... you took it into the pub carpark and gave it a beating so severe a priest had to be called to give it the last rights! Damn fine splits! Next time a negative split? You were close this time. Controlled - that is the word I like to use after I run. Once again that usually means a negative split: of course much more achievable with a longer distance and a course that isn't completely random on both halfs. Well done that man. I'm doing races of various distances at the moment - as long as they are hilly and also off road....I hope to reap the benefit in flattish road Marathons in 2020.
Thanks mate, certainly kept the priest busy with that one, didn't I :) Being in control when running fast really is a great feeling. I'll be including some more off road hilly stuff in my forthcoming marathon training because as you say, it's got to help with flattish road marathons. btw - what marathons have you got planned?
@@HereWeAreRunning Next week. Salisbury Plain (off road, military rutted roads etc) After Christmas a rather nice (sic) 42 miler (Winter Cross - Google it, a slightly unusual format) I've run it the last couple of years. Then in January a looped Ultra - uphill and down dale) Thinking ahead the flattish road ones I've booked next year - Taunton, North Dorset and London (my 💯 th Marathon). 34mile road ultra ("longest single loop road Ultra in UK" Dartmoor) a 100k point to point... Oh, and the Bath HALF. There will be more to come! I'm knackered just looking at the list!
I love a happy ending...! Great time and great achievement. I look forward to the marathon instalment, hopefully I will be able to pick up some useful tips.
Wow! Well done Chris, you keep going from strength to strength! Another inspiring series of videos, really looking forward to your new marathon journey 👍
Thanks Neil, very much appreciated :) I've certainly had a good couple of months of running and I'll take that after the difficulties I experienced earlier in the year. Really hoping that I can maintain this level of fitness as I begin marathon training in a few weeks time.
I did this race last weekend for a huge pb. I think there is some GPS holes on the course around the 90 degree turn and a bit further on in that long straight away. I had some huge pace drops (according to GPS) which would correlate with those sections measuring short which in turn would make the whole route short.
Thanks Daniel :) Going to park the 10k now for a while and concentrate on the marathon. Doing Manchester in early April so training for that begins before Christmas.
Here We Are Running good luck! I’m doing Edinburgh again, in May so my training will start beginning of Feb. Look forward to seeing your marathon training Vlogs
Fantastic well chuffed for Chris, loved watching that :-) totally inspired. Between your channel and The Running Channel I've decided to take on a run everyday challenge in Jan and then will look to train for a 10k after that. I take it that 4 laps didn't phase you at all? I usually struggle with lapped races.
Thanks mate :) Great to hear that go are going to start your own challenge off the back of this, best of luck. The 4 laps weren't too bad. Probably not something I'd do if I wasn't going for a fast time but at least the park had some nice scenery.
Bit late commenting on this but congratulations on a great run. The watch showing slightly below the 10k would annoy me. That's GPS for you. I always make sure my watch says the distance I'm running, even if it means having to do a bit of 'overtime'.
Thanks Colin. Probably my best achievement of last year. Yeah, a bit annoying about the watch but have to trust the race organisers for measuring correctly, so think it was the gps that was out and because it was 4 laps, being a bit out on one lap soon adds up.
Thanks. Back when I did this race I didn't have a faster day shoe. I run in stability shoes as I overpronate so choices are a bit limited. But last Summer, New Balance brought out the FuelCell Prism which I now wear if I want to run fast. Really love that shoe.
@@HereWeAreRunning I just treated myself to a pair of brooks ghost. I had some orthotics made by a podiatrist as I have very flat and I also overpronate
The great thing about running is speed is relative. There are plenty of people who can run a lot faster than me and others who are slower but I only ever compete with myself. If 1:15 is your current fastest 10K time then if you want to run faster, that's your target :)

Yes mate you smashed it! Glad you put the camera away for the race, sometimes you just need to focus 👌
Thanks mate :) Yeah, I decided that I needed to give myself the best possible chance. Thought about possibly wearing the camera on a head mount but wan't sure the battery would last and even if it did I don't think the footage would have been that interesting.
Just discovered ur channel. Fellow runner here. Great effort. Had subscribed.
Thank you. I'll head over and check your channel out.
Really chuffed for you Chris. Super quick time.
Thanks so much Darren, really appreciate that :)

Thanks Sean 👍
Thanks for sharing your story Chris! Chasing my sub 45 10k as a 39M, 96Kg man. Working hard, will get there. Thanks for inspiring us!
Best of luck Fabio. Keep working hard and I'm sure you'll get there.
Awesome! Big Congrats on sub 45. You killed it.
Thank you 👍
Well done Chris....never in doubt...Helped myself to a half marathon pb myself this weekend too....Look forward to following your marathon training as I start training for Manchester Marathon on 16th December 👍🏼
Thanks Si :) Great job on your half marathon PB, congratulations! We will both be starting our Manchester Marathon training at the same time.
absolutely amazing, well done!
Thank you :)
Absolutely brilliant, well done! I’ve really enjoyed this series. Amazing running! 🏃♂️ 💨

Congratulations Chris well done
Thanks Gary 👍
Fantastic, great achievement. Well done.
Thank you, much appreciated :)
Fantastic Chris well done.
Thanks Claire :)
Awesome result, Chris! Next stop is sub 40! Great series to watch, I think it was a smart decision to not carry the camera during a PB attempt. 👍🏆
Thanks Andy. Would love to go sub 40 one day and who knows, could be possible. Probably better look for a Sub 20 5k first.
Well done on the new Pb. Very nice splits always nice to finish strong.
Thank you :) It was a great feeling at around 8k, when I knew I was going to do it and was able to put a bit more effort in for those final two kilometres.
Well done, mate! Solid effort that one!
Thank you 👍😀
Absolutely fantastic result!! Congrats on the PB!! Never in doubt 😬
Thanks Nathan :) It all came good on the day, which doesn't always happen with me, so I've got to be happy with that!
Great job! Well done 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Thanks very much :)
Congrats, Chris!
Thank you :)
Great time well done Chris
Thanks very much Andy :)
& that’s how it’s done! 💥 well done man you worked hard & you were rewarded

Congratulations Chris! Great time!! Thank you for showing us we can all achieve our goals! 👍👏

Thanks mate 👍
Great result...well done!
Thank you Andrew :)
Awesome, great work! I was thinking earlier need to check your video to see if you got it. Got mine too, went from a 50:37 PB to 49:09 today.
Thank you Greg :) Fantastic work on your sub 50, well done!!
I love a happy ending...! Great time and great achievement. I look forward to the marathon instalment, hopefully I will be able to pick up some useful tips.
Thank you :) Not long to wait until the marathon training series begins.
Congrats!! Amazing video series leading up to your 10k. Hope one day to attempt my own sub 45.
Thank you, really appreciate that. Hopefully this shows that anything is possible with a bit of hard work and determination.
Fantastic running smashed it. Thank you for sharing your training and experience
Thanks Stuart, really appreciated :)
Great run Chris!
Thank you Robert. It was one of those days where everything just turned out right :)

Thank you :) How did you sub 50 attempt go?
Well done Chris, really enjoyed watching the lead up and the various training sessions. Definitely good for thought.
Thank you Matthew :) And glad to hear you enjoyed the training series.
Well done buddy! Watched your training vlogs on this and you smashed it well done!
Thanks so much :)

Thank you and why not, give it a try :)
You did it! Congrats!

Well done. My pb is 46mins. My 5k pb is 21.58. Do you use different shoes for your races? I only have one pair at the mo?
Thanks. Back when I did this race I didn't have a faster day shoe. I run in stability shoes as I overpronate so choices are a bit limited. But last Summer, New Balance brought out the FuelCell Prism which I now wear if I want to run fast. Really love that shoe.
@@HereWeAreRunning I just treated myself to a pair of brooks ghost. I had some orthotics made by a podiatrist as I have very flat and I also overpronate
Nice shoe. I have the Adrenaline GTS which is similar to the Ghost but with the GuideRails for support.
nice, im hoping to do a PB of 45min this year
Thank you. Do you have a target race planned for your sub 45 min attempt?
@@HereWeAreRunning Yes the FNB 10k in Durban, South Africa
Great stuff, I hope my 10k training series provides some help. Later this year I'm going to attempt a sub 20 min 5k, by following a similar approach.
Im very slow at 1:15. :(
The great thing about running is speed is relative. There are plenty of people who can run a lot faster than me and others who are slower but I only ever compete with myself. If 1:15 is your current fastest 10K time then if you want to run faster, that's your target :)
