Really enjoy watching your videos and seeing your training as well. Finished my first half marathon this year and really want to start cycling as well!
Similar to myself where when I was a young chap I was always fit and involved in club sports, come the end of college I dropped it all but kept up the drinking and smoking for like 8/9 years. Last year finally forced myself to stop smoking (still love a drink here and there though), got myself a new decent bike and have been grinding those gears hard ever since. Nice insight shared there and great showcasing that it's never too late to get back into shape. Keep up the great quality videos son!
Thanks for this video, i’ve been trying to get into content creation myself but life and work have been getting in the way so much i lack the motivation to keep going. This video did inspire me to go back out and film stuff for my channel!
Fair play Dan. You have managed to single handedly get me obsessed with cycling, im just young so its difficult for me to buy a decent bike :( love the content and especially the music choice! Keep going brother
This stuff makes me miss the North, and never thought I'd say this, I didnt think it was possible, but you make me miss Stockport as well Loving the videos. They're only getting better!
Quality video mate, been watching from the start of newbie runner. Really big fan, am looking to start filming myself but more as like a training archive
Loved this video mate! Would have loved to see more of you dancing in the car, those moments are cool coz I feel like as a viewer we get to see more of who you are and your personality. Do more like this on the tube!
I had no idea that you smoked before, am also going through the same path 🤣 running came first and finally trying to get rid of smoking bc my lungs can’t take it anymore. I know its not a pretty content to make, but would be incredible to hear your experience before/after quitting and how did it go for you - focusing more on the difference that you felt as quitting is very subjective. found you on TikTok and glad you’re now in the long content life :) keep up the cool vids!
Are you going to review the Skyward X? I really like that they're max cushion but have got a load of bounce still. Felt very unstable though and gave me knee issues
probably not tbh, much better people out there to give shoe reviews than me but I have the same impression as you (just minus the knee issues, for now)
I feel that there is some inflation on influencer content. It´s just not real. So this new twist of "home-made" and raw editing feels new, fresh and authentic, despite we know you got paid to expose or wear a certain product. However, the brand got visibility and exposure.
Hey Dan, can I ask what equipment you use to film your videos? Also quality content really enjoy the insta and TH-cam stuff, don’t have tick-tock because it scares me (social media crack 😂) don’t need anything else taking my attention! 😂.
As someone who has done equally and more crazy stuff throughout the past 2 years, its always played on my mind to set into starting creating content about it but I always find myself not knowing where to start? Camera, editting, ect ?
To add - I'm spending a month in Spain (November) cycling, welcome to come join! Or if you come by Amsterdam, I'm involved a lot with the cycle community here
had a couple of thousand initially when I first reached out to smaller brands. My first paid gig was a Manchester Marathon campaign with Adidas when I had 20k followers on TikTok
Why is content like this like therapy😂
Love the quality of your videos. Really sets you out from the rest
love to hear it, thanks mate
Loving the long form!
appreciate it!

thank you, appreciate it. And well in, would highly recommend cycling if you can get into it.
Do a major favor to you and your financial life ... DO NOT start cycling...its a fucking vice😂😂😂
Can we have this every week please

defo, could cover it on the next one I do like this cos it was quite difficult to get started when your lungs are in the mud init
Sensational. Thank you.
You're very welcome
I went out on my first winter ride, massively under-layered and I dabbled too hard with hypothermia that day, never again 😅
it is horrific init. Always over layering since I did similar last year
awesome video!

Glad to hear mate, cheers

Cherry Pepsi Max after a workout is the dream partnership tbh

hey man what camera do you use
yooo i'd be interested to see your proposal template to brands - currently working on mine so could use the inspo if you're keen on sharing 🤷🏽♂
ahhh or i can just watch the rest of the video 😂🥴
😂🤝
“Thought it ran on sweat” got me🤣
honestly did... never ending battery glitch
😂
What you saying about a run club Dan? Get a crew together so many people would be keen
not too sure, maybe at some point. Not got the extroverted personality required to host a club 😂
How many followers did you have when you started asking brands to collab?
had a couple of thousand initially when I first reached out to smaller brands. My first paid gig was a Manchester Marathon campaign with Adidas when I had 20k followers on TikTok
why's there a star in the corner of his eye for half the video?
At least we the seat belt correctly. Like the video though
what were you doing for 9-5 before out of curiosity?
worked at a creative agency for the last 3 years and prior to that worked at a media agency
fuckin legend love it
Did that say 90.4 km/h 😅 Glad someone had their weetabix
down Snakes Pass (whilst the roads were closed to cars) with a tail wind 🌬️ Got a bit carried away
Unreal speed @@Daaaanjj
Thank you some really good tips, my TH-cam is doing ok but need to improve on my instagram & TikTok 😊
Happy to help, good luck with it
Joexplore mentioned🔥🔥🔥, was a pleasure mate 🫡
good to get out mate, bell us when you're up for a mid-week camp ⛺️
Seriously well thought out vid 🫡
See you at muddy hell 🫡
mint, see you both there 🚲
Love the long form, quality of videos is so good nowadays 🤌
Snake closure is a nightmare for glossop traffic but haven for cycling and running 🤝
thank you mate. Aye, been unreal for cycling... bad for traffic on Woodhead pass too. Heard murmurs they might be closing snakes to cars for good soon
@@Daaaanjj yeah don’t think the road can take it any more, hopefully keep maintaining it for bikes etc tho 🤞
