Love how supportive Angelo is about you time and how well you did, so sweet☺️ Well done you both!!🏅
it’s amazing to be running, racing and training together 🫶🏻✨
and ahh thank you so so much!!! 💚
I know this will sound patronising but if you've been injured with two injuries, wouldn't it make more sense to slowly increase distance rather than how quickly you've increased again with the risk of further injuries
When everyone was cheering you calling your name, I felt the importance of having a name tag presenting. That was so awesome.
Congratulations on successfully completing this after a long break. And I'm so happy you two completed your first marathon together. It feels so important just like your first ever marathon. ❤❤❤
Congratulations, Holly!! I found out today that I have a stress fracture and have to stop running. I’m devastated and feeling really hopeless but your video gave me a lot of hope! I’m recovering from 12 years of anorexia and it’s finally caught up with me. However, seeing your whole journey has been so incredibly helpful. Thank you for all that you do! Xx
Well done to the both of you 🎉! I’m not a runner but I do love a good hike and this has inspired me to go on another one soon !
congrats to you and angelo!!! being from MK I can confirm the route with the hill at the end is ROUGH, also if you ever go back, Campbell is pronounced cambull
haha omg you knowwwwww that hill killed me 😂😂😂
and ooooo wow sorry for my awful pronunciation 😂 but thank you for letting me know 😉
Holly, well done in running the Half Marathon. My father and I went to Milton Keynes eight years ago to visit the Open University, the shopping Centre, and see a play. It is a nice town. I did my MA in Classical Studies through Distance Learning at the Open University.
Hearing all the people cheering for you gave me goosebumps!! Well done Holly!!
Great time Holly, good to run a few steps with you on the way round - David 👍
ahhh David!! thanks for saying hi 😉 and I hope the full went ok for you - it looked like you were on for a super good time 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Well done. Great running. I have a great shot of you finishing in my video. 👌 was a tough finish up that final hill.
Well done to you both, really enjoyed this
Congrats both, super running 👍
thank you!!!! it was a super fun event 🤩
Holly, you're the prettiest and funniest girl in the world! And I love your smile, too!😊💙💙💙💙💙💙🇺🇸🌷🇬🇧💜💜💜💜💜💜🎇👍
In the Netherlands in Rotterdam there is also a marathon each year the biggest one is 42, 195 km and you also have another one and that is 10,55 km.
oh wowwwww this sounds so cool!! we’ll have to check it out as we did also want to visit Rotterdam 👀😏
@@HollyGabrielle Yes you really should this year it was in april but for next year there is not yet a specific date. But I think it is also going to be in april because every year it has been somewhere in the beginning/middle of april.
@@gentiljansen8524 oooo thank you so so much!! i'll have to look into it!!! 😉
Congratulations!It's really a great thing that you can finish a half-marathon without training!🎉
I LOVE UR CHANNEL :)!!!!!!!!!!!
I’m in the video near the end of the race. I thought I recognised you. Well done!
It’s over 45 degrees in Thailand right now, I don’t think you can run 😂
Congrats! An amazing time! Would you be able to provide a link to your fitness belt you wore?❤
Fantastic!
Well Done Holly So hapy for you Fantastic keep it up amazing video couple love you both keep if up😊😊😊❤
thank you Bethaney!!! thank you so much for your support 🙈✨
@@HollyGabrielle Hope can be friends Keep in touch 👍👍
Well done 🎉🏅
I recently joined a gym but I’m struggling to feel motivated & attend regular, I’m exhausted all the time, any suggestions please
Well done. 🎉 My sister and I saw and recognised you.
awww 👀🙈 wish I could have said hi!! and thank youuu 🫶🏻
do you get updates on your heartrate on your watch while you are running? bc i am contemplating buying a heart rate sensor but i also want to know during my run if my heartrate is staying low enough
if the hr monitor is connected to your running watch, you can adjust the settings there to signal when your hr is too high/low, at least I can do it with my garmins
Which Coros watch do you have? Is it better than a Garmin?
i have the COROS pace 2 and i've never tried a Garmin, so i can't really compare?! but i do love my COROS for running!
Campbell is pronounced “camball” 😂
Hi holly, how did you like the flipbelt? Trying to find something that fits an iPhone pro max 😂😅
so I don’t have the max phone and mine is a bit of a squeeze tbh!! 😬 I also didn’t wear it on race day as I hadn’t worn it enough in training, so I used my old one (which I love and it’s just an old bum bag from my mum) instead 😅
@@HollyGabrielle good to know! Will keep searching the ideal bum bag😂
@@willemijnrush4426 it's such a hard item to look for, but i hope you find one soon!!!
Hi! How do you take water during your runs? :)
I was drinking water from the paper cups they provided along the course!
Thank you! So well done! Currently training for my first half marathon. Do you recommend taking your own water though? :)
you can see it at 12:27 😂😏
@@HollyGabrielleoh I see the struggle! Haahha 😂😂
Wow that's so cool!! Do you rest in between the kms? I can't run more than 1.5 km then I have to catch a breath.. any tips girl?
Just keep running a few times a week and work on building up the time you run. If you are in the uk (there are probably similar apps if you aren’t) download couch to 5K- it alternates running and walking and you build up the amount of running time you do over the course of 9 weeks- you start at 60 seconds and end up running for 30 mins
thank you!! and no, I don’t stop … but that’s just because I am very used to running 😉 it sounds and will feel very hard at the start, but if you begin with very short distances and then gradually build it up then you’ll start improving in no time👌🏻
@Hwp57 thank you!! 💜
@@HollyGabrielle Wow!! Alrighty, thank you 💜
👍
👌🏻😉😏
How can they not allow you to wear Bluetooth headphones?? That makes no sense at all
apparently it was for safety purposes 🤷🏻♀️ because bone conduction ones allow you to be more aware of your surroundings, and the course was pretty narrow at times . . . but I did think it was a bit strange myself too 😅
@@HollyGabrielle I guess so but what are they gonna do if they see you wearing AirPods? Run after you and kick you out of the face?😂 I’d wear them anyway
It's really common now, runs like the Berlin marathon also tell you not to wear them. It's for safety reasons and so you can enjoy the atmosphere
@@lucysmart6472 they’ll just DQ you if it’s found out. It’s England athletics/UKA rules, and in fairness to race organisers it’s generally been this way for a number of years, it’s just getting more enforced now. Our club holds a half marathon and we do the same.
Bone conducting headphones are safer, it means you can hear things going on around you (which is crucial when you have on-course marshals) so from a risk perspective it does make sense
@@TumoRuns tell me you take running too seriously without telling me you take running too seriously 😭
Was the lube sign a joke or is there something that runners use lube for?
Runners use it on their skin at places which can rub and can end up chaffed. This can get very uncomfortable over a long run, hence use of lube. It's different stuff to that used in sexual exercise !
@@jimmyjohnstone5878 thank you!
In my opinion optical hr from the wrist shouldn't exist, it is very unreliable. I have switched off mine. I use a Coros Apex PRO paired with a Polar H10🫀
