Your sponsors would be happy with this video. I love your videos and (because of this), purchased the Shokz open run pro2, Salomon belt and vest for my birthday in a few weeks!
Haha thanks so much, and I hope you are happy with them, they are genuinely the best running headphones I’ve tried, and the a race belt is a great piece of kit. I’ve found other peoples’ gear videos helpful, so I hope this one helped you too 🙏☺️ I appreciate your kind comments 🙏
I didnt know that you could run races with the Shokz. I've seen people wearing them but I assumed that they were just risking the DQ. Thats very interesting to know because not having my music on race day is a real bummer. Good to know! Thanks man
Yes most races allow bone conduction headphones because you can still hear other people around you and instructions from marshals etc. Personally, I only use them sparingly, like when the race gets really hard ☺️
Hey fellow Wilfa Uniform user - my tip to you would be pick up a Tens Hundreds Thousands coffee dosing tray. It may seem a bit extra, but it’s my favourite bit of coffee kit and makes my morning routine so much simpler 🤙 Thanks for the video - really enjoyed it.
I like this gradual approach and learning as you go along and improve/grow. Obviously the other option would've been all the gear and no idea and most people jack it in before it starts 😬
I like electronic ambient music to run to so I get that other worldly hypnotic feeling rather looking for motivation through my music. I'd be interested to know more about your music choices.
I got into running to lose a few pounds and its free. All you need is one pair of shoes… 5 pairs of shoes, two belts, one vest, 4 shorts, countless socks, 3 hats, 2 watches, 9 race fees and 2 things of nut butter later… yea other than all that stuff i havent even spent any money on running lol
Hello. Where can I find the list of the models you mentioned. I am interested in trying a few of them but could not find the specific models for some of them. Thanks
i so get this..... started off with trainers, random shorts and a regular t shirt, but now....... can i ask which windproof you've had success with? such a varied price point with them, haven't picked one up yet, but you're absolutely right about the waterproof, run too hot in it, and unless its heavy raining, the windproof might be sufficient? prob lots more comfortable!! love how small it packs down. great video. thanks 😊
Haha I know! The stuff gradually accumulates 🤦♂️😂 This is the OMM Sonic Jacket, quater zip. I really wanted the Patagonia Houdini, but I found the OMM on sale for about half the price of the Patagonia, and I'm really happy with it.
@@ChrisBranch awesome, thank you! yes, i think @BillyYang showed that patagonia WP and looks great, but cant quite justify the cost yet, so will defo check this out. Thought id say i almost daily still use your hips spine and core workout video. In the last few weeks of 55k plan for event in the lake district at the end of september and that routine always gets me set for the day. thanks for all the content you make! 👍
Thanks Chris, a comprehensive summary. However, you forgot one thing....the ultra beard! Where can I get one of those? Surely they reduce pace by a few seconds per mile.😂
😂😂😂 That's hilarious! I ran an ultra at the weekend, and I must admit, there is definitely a higher frequency of beards compared to the general population. I'm happy to sacrifice the speed for the feeling of being wild out in the trails 😂

@@andrewgraham5080 Everybody can know that radiation is very dangerous and causes cancer (that's no top secret). Easy to find yourself if you need "proof" ...,🙄

Thanks for sharing Chris!

Love the coffee tip 😂 im glad im not the only one. Bloody love the stuff, doesnt even need to be caffeinated
Haha I know! Having it preprogrammed to come down to before an early run is the best 👌😂

Ooh I'm always looking for more coffee kit 😂 I'll look into it, thanks for the tip!

😂 I've done that with so many things 🤦♂️, but thankfully not running ☺️🙏

Oh cool, I'll drop more references in to future videos! 😊
Awesome video, so helpful! What is the North Face hat called please? I cant find it on their website.
I just typed in 'North Face sun hat' to google and a few options pop up. I think mine is the 'Class V Brimmer'. It's great 😊
@@ChrisBranch Many thanks, Chris, all the best 🙂
Great video! Which windbreaker do you have? The one that packs down so small! 🙂
It's the OMM Sonic Smock - quarter zip. It's as light as a feather! I got it on a good discount somewhere 👍

Ah, it's now called 'Essential Lightwarm', it's changed its name ☺️ www.salomon.com/en-gb/shop-emea/product/essential-lightwarm-lc12825.html
