"Compound effect of marginal gains" not heard this before but sums up perfectly what every runner should be aiming for. I, unfortunately, got greedy this year, and pushed for a sub 20 before my body was ready, and during a marathon block. I got the sub 20 but also got adductor tendinopathy that is shifting very slowly.
I can absolutely relate to this, you're at the same stage as me in terms of running times. I've been chasing a sub 20 for the past year and a bit. Currently getting 20:15 - 20:30, and for whatever reason I can't break 20 minutes whether it's too windy, too slippery, doing efforts during the week. This is a great 5k time after a 10k and Christmas munch. Keep at it, the day will come.
Brilliant run Andy 👏👏👏 Thanks for your time and effort over 2023 in making such entertaining and inspiring content. I look forward to your adventures in 2024. Take great care mate.
The Insta Go 3 is barely noticeable. It's so light and has a head mount for the hat which is mega helpful. Not 4k though which pisses me off, but I don't think anyone notices 🤣
‘The compound effect of marginal gains’. The training is there for all to see Andy. Superb running mate.

@@pf4186 It’s a quote I’ve come across a lot recently. I’ve internalised it and find it a good anchor for my running.
Love that mate - great saying! Thanks bud 👍🏻

It seems like an impossible wall doesn't it, but let's keep chipping away!
You're a great athlete dude!
Thank you mate 👊🏻 Hopefully getting better as the year goes on!
Awesome effort so soon after the 10k mate 👏 it's coming 💪
Cheers bud! Close but no cigar 👍🏻
😂 Love the in-race commentary here, Andy!
Thanks Mark! I can waffle for England so it's not a problem 🤣

Cheers Dean, it was a close but no cigar moment. Hoping for many cigars in 2024! Hope you're well mate.👊🏻
Be happy that you can run Andy ! Enjoy instead of pushing is my best advice !
Thanks Anders, yes smiling and enjoyment is the main thing!
Well done Andy! Fantastic attempt. I’m glad I’m not the only one to scream as I chase everyone down at finish line!
Hahaha - self awareness levels are very low at that point 🤣
Great video! Really entertaining
Thanks so much for watching ❤️
Happy new year Andy, been a great year to follow your runs, please continue I 2024🤘
Thank you! Very much looking forward to a big year ❤️
Andy Raynor was 90 secs off his pb there. So good signs for you.
I was a tough course, and one day I'll find a flat 10k to have a crack at. Andy is a really nice chap!
Great video, you were really close, arrow valley is an awesome course, Haley is yet to try that one so we will have to go back in the new year 🎉🎉
It's a fast course isn't it - I'm looking forward to a few PB attempts there this year!
Well done mate. I’m similar to you. Ran 20:11 today for a PB. Sub 20 next year I hope. Let’s get it.
You're so close 💪🏻 You'll smash that before spring hopefully!
Unlucky mate. How was the head cam?? Never done a 5k. Seem to be going the other way and booking longer!!
The Insta Go 3 is barely noticeable. It's so light and has a head mount for the hat which is mega helpful. Not 4k though which pisses me off, but I don't think anyone notices 🤣
Great running !
Thanks so much 😎
You should come down to Stratford for your next 5K PB attempt. Nice and flat three laps simple.
Good shout - I think I'll wait till the mud dries a bit before I end up in the river 🤣
The last km is usually my fastest too, and the slowest is often the 3rd km.
I think that's the way most will relate. Starts to hurt half way through and then soon after you pick it back up 💪🏻
"Roast potatoes and Jack Daniels"?? 😂😂
Match made in heaven (hell for runners) 🤣
5K PBs are so hard, especially when you get older, that will be my aim for 2024!
You can do it Simon 💪🏻 We both can do it 👊🏻
Chef Andy with the JD potatoes 😅
Hahaha you know it - who needs gravy 🤣
Its a good marker for a next pb attempt, keep chipping away, sub 20 will happen!
I hope I'll get there this side of summer! Cheers bud 👊🏻
Jack Daniels or Johnny Walker are not good training partners
I second this 🤣
