I dont do strava or social media. Are you on garmin connect?
I don't know why, but this made me tear up a little. Congrats man, huge accomplishment!
Same here, such a nice video! Congrats Eric!
Didn’t we all🥹
I did the same. Congrats~~🎉
Great run! I was actually trying to pace off you for a bit of the race before I fell off. You can see me around the 4:58 mark. I’m the big guy with the blue/green singlet, black visor, black knee bands. I fell off but still PR/BQ with a 3:03:16! Gonna watch this video multiple times to sub 3 Boston!
I’m teaching Ancient Greece to 4th graders and I want to show a contemporary marathon. My 21yr-old son is training for Chicago-his first-so it was the obvious race to search. I’m so glad I found your vid. I’m so proud of you for sticking with it and so happy for you. I teared up too. Way to keep after your goal!
I see myself running there when you are talking to your friend riding the bike. I broke the 3 hour there too. Congrats! It was a great day to be a Sub 3 marathoner!
I’m not crying you’re crying. Incredible dude
Much love, my dude. Stoked for you to run it again next year. ;)
you did it! you did it!
I am the first to comment
the goat! Thanks, my man!
@@flobergruns congrats man, u earned it all!
Fantastic video! Congratulations on the PR and BQ! Excited to hear more about your training and journey. I'm chasing that unicorn myself. Keep running!
Year later, still gold and so inspiring
I spotted myself in your video at 2:59 -3:00 - blue hat…I will be running 2023 Chicago Marathon Wanda World Championship. Congratulations!
B Corral Squad lets goo! Congrats on the sub-3!
Extremely impressive race while negative splitting. I was 1 minute off of BQ on Sunday at Chicago due to a severe hamstring cramp starting at mile 23, and I am still looking forward to experiencing that same feeling you showed here in this video. Congrats.
Ah! I'm so sorry to hear that! You'll have it so soon!! Did you take any salt tablets on the course? I made sure to down 5 or 6 throughout.
@@flobergruns All good. In my case, I'm pretty sure it was more caused by fatigue than dehydration. From what I've learned since I've never had a hamstring cramp before, it was probably due to poor form at that stage of the race where my hamstrings were doing too much of the leg lift than my core/glutes.
Insane man!! You just gave me so much adrenaline!! I’m running NYC in 2.5 weeks and I’m so pumped, you just made me more pumped!! Congrats on sub 3!!
Ran it too. First one ever. Watched your second half video before the race, super helpful. Congrats man!
Awesome effort 🎉. 2:57 & your 1st sub3...epic.
Dude are you kidding?! What an accomplishment! You should be insanely proud!
Thanks so much, Noah!!
Chicago was my first major and I was able to shave off 32 minutes. This gives me hope that if I keep training I'll be able to find that 15-20 minutes I need to BQ! Great work out there!!
So proud man! What an achievement!
Thanks my man!! 😭
Eric! You did it man! Great job!! 💪🏻🤙🏻
Thanks so much!!!
Cheers to 500 subscribers! And amazing work out there 👀💪
Such an epic video! Loved seeing your excitement throughout and when you reached your goal - that must've been a great feeling. I just finished Chicago short of my time goal but this gets me pumped up to keep going after it.
Congrats man. well deserved and great strategy
Inspiring. 👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽 you’re on a whole other level my man!
Thank you, friends!!
Congratulations!!! 🎉🎊 😭
Mad inspiring! Congrats on the huge achievement. Persistence pays off!!
I saw myself running right behind you at 3:16; I was racing with black visor; blue singlet, black tight and compression socks with orange nike alphafly. Actually I’m going to try 2:50 in my next fall marathon; looking your videos to get more details in my next training cycles. Thanks
dude congrats!! well deserved after those 5 yrs. now I'm super motivated for turkey trot next month lol
Congrats brotha. Bad ass!
So cool man. Congratulations! I was immediately taken back to 2019 when i got to Buckingham Fountain at like 5 am lol. Loading up on the free Gatorade Gummies as I was nervously feeling a little chill.
that emotional build up at the end ! good job
Totally awesome! Hard work and dedication always pays off!
outstanding job, crushed 3 hours and had the perfect unicorn day to do it
Congrats again!! onto boston!
Thank you!!!
You need more subscribers!! Great content creation!
This video is inspiring, I got chills watching this and now im pumped to go train
man i feel my tears at the end
That’s totally awesome dude!!
Congrats dude. Massive achievement!
Rewatched this and noticed you ran a 3:59 marathon in 2018 followed by a 3:10 in 2019. That's a massive improvement...what did you do differently to knock 49 minutes off your time in a year?
Great question. I'll definitely cover it more in future videos, but the biggest difference was that I actually studied how to run a marathon, and had a friend coach me that year who studies alongside me. It was a matter of training correctly, and understanding how to pace the race. :) Thanks for watching!
Awesome work! congratulations! 👏🏼
I’m behind you haha (7:24) , it was my second marathon, 2:58 🎉
Let’s go!!! Great work!
That's so awesome!! What stick did u use for ur camera/phone?
Very amazing video. Thank you so much❤❤
Congrats🎉🎉🎉🎉 very inspiring video
Thanks so much!!
Very cool! He ran with this one youtuber with 100k I wonder if you seen him? He finished in 3 hours and 20 mins.
Man! This was awesome to see. I'm going for a NYC marathon sub3 attempt in less than 4 weeks! Any key learnings to share? Let's gooo
This is so heartwarming. I can't wait to see what that feels like. It might take another year, it might take another 5, but I'm sure as the sun shines it will be documented. Thanks for sharing, Eric, and congrats on sub 3!
Keep hacking away, my man!! You've got this. Consistency and positivity will get you there.
nicely done
Put this in my veins!
nice man what you do different?
Amazing job!!! That is incredible! You absolutely smashed it!
Thank you so much!!
Get some.
2:33 why do you need to manually lap your own mile on a road race?
to get accurate splits. Chicago notoriously gives you problems with your GPS, so your averages are never accurate. Plus, my course clock time was 6 minutes off the gun since I crossed the start line 6 minutes after the elites.
@@flobergruns All road race courses are like this; you mitigate this by running tight tangents and your ending mileage won't be too far off from 26.2.
Sounds like you started your watch at gun time. You should be starting your watch when you actually cross the start line and from there let your watch automatically lap up. If you do that, you can reliably use your watch time to track your pace/splits and ignore the course time/gun time.
great job man. i finished this race in 2:57:09😂
🥇
What do you do with your camera when you aren’t filming. I sweat so much to carry a phone.
On this race, I filmed the first half with a little insta 360 GO 2, so it just fit in my pocket. Second half, my buddy, Shua filmed, and then I stole my wife’s phone at mile 25 😂
On s'est lancé le défi "faire un semi en 1 mois!"

On a aussi fait le tour de Suisse à vélo ! 🇨🇵
Huge congrats!
Thank you!!
Respectfully, I felt like your friend had no business on the course especially on the bicycle.
Why did you keep screwing up your lap times on your watch, and why did you keep dropping things? Most running-race video people do NOT do these things. Amateur!!!!
Attaboy!
okay, all i want in NYC is a p_o interview on the course. please.
What would you recommend to someone running marathon first time in 2023?
Btw ran 9 miles yesterday and had runners knee by mile 5 😅 it’s a process!
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!
YOU GOT IT!! OOOOOO GOT IT!!
shua the super73 goat
500th subscriber!
What a GREAT moment!! Congrats man!! 💪💪
Came across your channel a couple of days ago. Big inspiration to run sub 3 myself this morning @Amsterdam Marathon. Did it! Feels so good..
Let’s go!!!! Congratulations 🎉 🎉🎉
inspiring brother - congrats. Lets go!!!
HELL YEAH, BROTHER
I'm right in front of you at the 4:30 mark :)
Congratulations
Nice! Congratulations! What did you think of the Endorphin Pro 3?
Thank you! They're amazing. Probably my favorite race shoe to date. Great energy return, but way more squish than the Nike carbon fiber shoes, in my opinion. Wider toe box as well, which helped not smash my toenails.
So good man!! So proud of you!
Thanks so much, Brad! So happy we got to have that experience together! Gotta do it again!!
Congrats! It’s not easy to hold onto your dream for 5 years, but you did it! Amazing!
Quick question: I’ve always wondered, do people just throw away their jackets halfway through the race?
New sub and love the channel! Very professional production and engaging personality. You should post more content...the channel has a ton of potential.
Congratulations. You have motivated me and many more I'm sure
So inspiring can’t wait until I run my sub 3hr for sure 🖤🏁
LETSGOOOOOOOOOOO
love you hwu!! I made a video this time!! hahaha
Wow congratulations! So inspiring!
Great video! Congrats on sub 3!!!!
Gave me chills there at the end!! Congrats on the sub 3!!
Thanks so much!!
New to the channel, never heard of you before but your video popped up. I ran it too and broke 3:10 with a 3:07:43 at this race on Sunday. I'm finally going to Boston. That was my first goal. Now my next goal has become breaking 3 hours and this video is pretty emotional to me. I want to be there too some day. That journey starts from now until I get there. I don't know if I can but that's why it feels amazing when you do. I want to be there man! I want to get there like you.
Congrats on your 3:07!! Keep at it!! Consistency in training and a positive mindset will get you there!!
Stumbled across this video, very inspiring!! Congratulations on sub 3!!
Thanks so much, Daniel!
We’ll done!
Congratulation on the first sub-3 of many! I'm still on this journey myself, having managed an agonisingly close 3:01:02 in 2021 and DNSing my target marathon this year because of illness. Roll on my next attempt at the Gold Coast marathon in 2023.
Congratulations!!! Not just beat it, smashed the barrier.
Amazing, congrats! Sunday was a magical day for running.
Yup, that's the best description.
Going for something very similar on Jan 15th with the Carlsbad Full to BQ for 2024!! Also been about 5-years in the making.. I'll update once I get it done! -- Great Job Man!!
Always rooting for you, love to see the success! I've been on the same path and my next shot at sub 3 is Boston. Thanks for the content and sharing your journey. Helps get me out the door each day.
