      Left it in my dust! Someone’s ran that very same parkrun in 12minutes with a dog mind so maybe his owner was the one slowing it down 😂

    Your Vlogs get better and better, starting from an already high standard. Packed in a speed session, family and friends stuff and a parkrun record. Brilliant.
    We've done that parktun and it's a superb route and location.

    I had my spot in the Vitality 10km today plus had the rare hope of saying hello as you were going to be there (along with thousands of others I know !) .. Sadly am heavy with Covid at the moment so couldn't go but hope to one day say thanks for being such an inspiration and publishing such engaging content..

    A great time on that all up then all down course! Did some parkrun tourism recently at Conkers. Always interesting to see new venues. Running Southampton (and filming) for the first time this coming Saturday and hoping to break 21 minutes. Good luck with your 10k. You've got a sub 30 in you, just need to let it out!

    Hi ben, 100k still sounds a lot for next week, also when comparing to 180 peak. Have you tried a really low/easy taper?

    • @BenIsRunning
      @BenIsRunning  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I have a general rule of 50% of peak week for race week. Any more then I still carry fatigue and any less and I feel sluggish. All about finding out what works best for you.

    That was a cool video, but of a change from the strictly training content in the SJD style that I enjoyed.
    If you like Greek gyros there's several good places I'd recommend in Britain but the real deal in Greece is better, perhaps you should consider running the Athens marathon, the place where it all started! Has not been done by content creators as much as perhaps it should, and am sure plenty of people would be interested!

    Should I run a 5K race 2 weeks before my marathon? I see it like an interval session before taper. Any thoughts?

    • @BenIsRunning
      @BenIsRunning  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes, as long as you treat it like a training session. Ie run as hard as you can without tapering your training and not killing yourself so your a goal race is hampered I think it’s a great idea :)
