- 100 hours of training, 745 miles pounding the pavements… and it all comes down to one race. Brighton Marathon 2022 - 26.2 miles of sunshine and seaside on this gently ‘undulating’ marathon course. This is my second marathon and after a patchy start to the 18-week training block, have I done enough in the final few weeks to turn it around and run a sub-3 marathon again, and maybe even a PB? Let’s find out!

so happy you went for the Vaporflys, you smashed it and got the PB. so happy all that training and hard work paid off for you
Thanks Bradley - managed to turn the training block around in the final half ☺️
Awesome video, great running, & incredible result! It was brilliant to meet you both over brekky, on Saturday. Hope to see you when I get 'home' to Devon, in June!
It was lovely to meet you too Catherine, and a lovely surprise to find out you grew up in my old stomping grounds! Thanks for all the kind words - I had a fantastic race - hopefully, see you soon 😁
Belated congratulations on an amazing marathon result. Can't believe you are running that pace, vlogging and still sounding and looking completely relaxed. Thanks Lee 👍
Thank you so much! Race day excitement takes over a bit, the training kicks in and I try to run as relaxed as possible :)
Well done Lee great video to.
Thanks Dad! ☺️
Great run, and a good video of event, impressive you are still able to chat to camera at the pace you are running. I was near you at mile 10 and 11 but couldn't keep the pace up towards the end. Still happy with my own PB and as a you say a great marathon with excellent crowd support.
That first half of the race is pretty tough once the adrenaline has faded from the early miles. I’m glad you had a good race and finished well - will you be going back? Thanks for the very kind words 🙏
Really liked that video. A superbly executed race. Well done on the pb.
Thank you! Everything just seemed to click on race day ☺️
Fantastic result, very well done. I'm glad you commented at the end that there were hills, having done it 3 times I was surprised that you kept saying that it was flat (second half yes). That undulation makes your finish time even more of a great result. You smashed it.
Thanks Debbie 🙏 Still buzzing from the experience! It’s quite a strange course, there are a couple of pretty steep, short hills and then the rest and long and gentle - sometimes you don’t even realise you’re going up until you come back down it on the other side. But definitely not as flat as Manchester 😅 Thanks again for the kind words and support, it means a lot ☺️
Awesome running Lee you looked so strong throughout 💪👍 the atmosphere looked amazing and now I want to book a marathon 😣 (I booked London Landmarks on the back of your Vlog last year, you have to stop doing this to me..! And please don’t vlog the ultra!!😂😂). Well done and keep inspiring 👏🏻👏🏻
Ha! This made me laugh out loud Richie! I’ll stop! 😅 But… I will say, if you enjoyed the half marathon…. You’re going to love marathons 😃 Thanks for the very kind words, and continued support. It really does mean a lot pal 👍🙏☺️
Well done Lee!. Amazing effort especially with a camera.
Thanks Philip, such kind words of support - thank you 🙏 I do sometimes wonder how much faster I might be without the camera 🤔
Yeah I reckon you'd get a 2.50 without the talking and camera. It does look impressive to vegans and non vegans though as you finish strong. Keep up the amazing work. 👏
@@quantumhumannutrition Long term I’d love to go 2:30 - 2:45 next on a course like Manchester/Rotterdam/Berlin - Brighton was awesome but there are definitely easier courses 😅
Nice! I got my first sub-3 on the same day in Wales. Great feeling. WELL DONE.
Well done! Which course did you run? On the lookout for a good one in the autumn.
@@TheVeganRunner Great Welsh Marathon. Windy and loose gravel path at times. Not great, but flat! I'm going to do Newport in the autumn, I think, 23 October, then Manchester in the spring.
@@SPihlaja That’s pretty epic to go sub-3 on a course like that 👏👏 I’ll have a look at Newport 👍 Tempted to give Manchester another go, but there’s so many great marathons out there!
@@TheVeganRunner indeed! Hope to run into you at some point at one and glad to find your videos! Good luck with the ultra this summer!
Thanks Stephen! Have a great summer of running ☺️
Great running and nice camera work. Had to laugh when a running said "if your talking you can't be trying hard enough mate. Just saying."
Familiar experience - feeling like an 'ironing board' & going up steps at the end.
To be fair… he was also talking 😅 It’s amazing how quickly, after running for so long, the body quickly stiffens up. Almost instant as you cross the line!
Well done I'll be running my first half marathon in December this year as a full on vegan. From a new vegan runner from Australia.
Thanks Scott! Good luck with your half and the training - your first half is something you'll remember for a long time! Enjoy!
@@TheVeganRunner I been training for it for a year now, now I need to make it happen vegan style!
Well done, what a performance, super time! And perfect day for it too, great to see the training come together 🎉
Thanks mate, I guess I was able to turn it around in the second half of the plan after all 😅 Thanks for the continued support bud 🙏
Wow what a tremendous run Lee, you absolutely smashed it 🥳 I really enjoyed this video how on earth you can run that fast and film it is unbelievable, a huge congratulations from me and Joan 🥰
Thank you both so much 😁 It's all the plants in my diet Steve ;) I don't know really - surprised I could still make whole sentences after mile 22. Hope your hamstring is loosening-up - I was going to say, if you haven't got a lacrosse ball, buy one. When my hammies are tight, I perch on a hard chair and roll the ball widthways across the muscle. Works for me every time!
@@TheVeganRunner if I thought that eating 🌱 plants would help me give Rachel a gotcha 🤣 I’d be a Vegan runner today 😜 say hi to Rachel and thanks for following me 😀 had a massage yesterday so hopefully hamstring will get easier 👍
@@coops111s It might be just what you need to get that edge Steve 😉🌱🌱🌱🤞 That will sort it 👍
Ah, that was a great video. Proper sprint finish with that guy in the blue at the end. Well done, another sub3 is an amazing achievement!
Compared to my first marathon, where the ‘sprint’ finish felt so heavy, the last couple of miles at Brighton were tough but felt like I was making progress and able to put a little extra in at the end 😃 The crowd support was just amazing there too. 🎉
Great to see you out on the course (I was the runner at 10:55)
Brilliant! I was hoping a fellow VR would spot themselves - I tried to get as much 💚🖤 as I could ☺️ Hope you had a good one!
Enjoyed watching this! considering doing a Brighton marathon in 2023, fingers crossed
Go for it! They’re changing the route a little to avoid the power station section - should make the last 10k or so a little more pleasant! 😅 Good luck with the training!
@@TheVeganRunner Thanks! I miss Brighton, been there once in 2000's, still remember as one of most beautiful towns out there. So I doubt any industrial views will ruin the impression :) I just hope the world won't get crazier by april, so I can still fly there haha.
Well done Lee, great running and vlogging!
Thank you! ☺️
Well done Lee 💚🖤!! Absolutely killed it! Really enjoyed the video, so exciting to watch despite already knowing the result 😆! I can't wait to take this on race next year 😍 good luck with your ultra training!
Thanks Mici! Excited for you! It’s a good course, plenty to see along the way… and just think of all the good food to choose from at the end! 😁 Great to meet you both at the weekend 💚🖤
I saw you at a few points in the second half of the run and you looked incredibly controlled & running strong. Well done on your pb on a deceptively tough course.
Thanks Matthew! Glad that’s how I looked but those last few miles were tough! The brilliant crowds carry you along. How’d you get on?
@@TheVeganRunner I was spectating, I was entered but tore a calf muscle 7 weeks into my training plan so deferred until next year.
@@matthewsenior4208 Been there! Hope it’s healing well - mine took about 10 weeks to fully heal. Recommend the hop test if you’re still struggling with it.
Well done Lee.
Thanks Terence ☺️👍
Good job. That was amazing.
Thank you!! ☺️☺️
Great running!💚🤜🏻
Thank you! Love the handle! 😅💚
fantastic pace!
Thank you! ☺️
Bloody great performance Lee, congratulations mate !!!
And best of luck in your ultra, I'll be following on !
Thanks Scott! Great to see you out there ☺️ A weeks gentle recovery and then back into it I think! Can’t wait!
Great vid.
What shorts are you wearing? I can see the 2xU compression ones. Cant quite make out the logo on the pink/red ones.
Possibly "cb" ????
Thanks! The red/pink shirts are by a company called ‘do’ - they have a pretty decent lineup of sportswear.
@@TheVeganRunner Thanks, it's just that I could see it had a zipped pocket that was clearly able to store enough gels for a 26.2. (Not really a fan of the "spi belts" )
I'll check out their website
Keep up the good work and good luck in your 100km!
@@rych7852 I see! That’s where the 2XU compression shorts came in, they can hold three gels in the back pocket comfortably. I put one gel in the zip pocket on the shorts, along with a caffeine strip. They can hold two, but unlike the 2XU, they don’t stay close to the body and bounce around a lot. Hope that helps!
Great video. I'm running at Brighton in April 24. May I ask how cambered the roads were? I've heard there quite sloped in some sections. Was hoping to use Prime X shoes but worried that if I'm running on angles that will be a bit too unstable.
Thanks Mr Bump! Hope the training is going well. I’ll think you’ll be fine in the Prime X. I don’t recall any roads with an aggressive camber - it was all pretty well surfaced and smooth running.
@@TheVeganRunner thanks for taking the time to reply. Training has hit a bump in the road 😂 nursing a tender achilles so all easy miles for the next week two.
@@mrbump7266 Ah that’s a shame - I hope it heals quickly. Definitely don’t rush it though, as you say easy miles - I have a friend who’s nursing an Achilles injury and it’s taken months, so slow and steady is definitely the best way forward. Best of luck, and I really hope you enjoy Brighton ☺️
I’ve done Brighton once and Manchester twice and am wondering which you prefer having also done both? There’s a clear superior one for me in terms of support, crowds and layout of course.
That’s such a tough question! Manchester is flatter, the organisation is slightly better, crowds are great… Brighton, you’re running alongside the sea which I loved, the event village is a cool touch - adds a bit of hype and excitement around the race but it is hillier, and they use cups for water 😅 I’m still buzzing from a PB, can’t decide! Which did you go for?
@@TheVeganRunner I just loved the crowd support all the way around in Manchester so it wins for me! Although that’s also probably because I just got my PB there too so it does colour it a bit. Brighton is such a cool city and the part just before halfway with the sea crashing on the left hand side is fantastic. I got bad dehydration from those cups, and the industrial section make it quite tough!
Congrats on the PB, I’ll have to give Brighton another go some time!
@@danthomasburton Agree on the cups! At Manchester, I drank from most aid stations at Brighton I made sure to hit every one until the last 10K. After grabbing the cup, sloshing it about sometimes I’d be lucky to have a mouthful 😅 There’s got to be a better way. Crowds wise, there was only a couple of quiet spots at Brighton, about the same as when I ran Manchester.
