@@andrewmitchell5807 unpredictable weather conditions wasn’t what made this course terrible, the 5 out-and-backs and incorrectly short distance was the issue.
The race was specifically shortened because of the icy course, I used to run this course every year, they deliberately shortened it and announced it to everyone that it would be shorter.
No turkey trots here in our part of Canada. We usually have a charity 5k of some sort that weekend though (and our Thanksgiving is early October). Nice running on that ice covered course. Our parkrun will be looking like that soon.
Nice! Pro tip- next year do the Louisville Turkey Trot. It’s next to Boulder but a bigger race, no hairpin turns, and the last mile is 1-2% downhill. The course is a bit short ~4.91KM, so about 20 seconds fast.
The short course reminded me of one time I did a Jingle Bell run . The course was obviously short , about 2.8 miles . Afterwards I asked the race director how the course course was measured . She proudly said her daughter and her measured it with a pedometer ! I tried to explain that’s not how a race course should be measured , you need a measuring wheel but I don’t think she understood.
One year I did a Turky trot in sub freezing weather. So cold I decided to keep my sweats on.. which was a big mistake!!! Because no one bothered to plow the course!! country road that wasnt even plowed in snow covered sweat pants...lol
Turkey Trots or world class times. What was the point of this comment? Some inane humble bragging in a place where nobody knows who you are or cares. Weird.
I jokingly thought to myself that all of those 180-degree turns in your short 5K remind me of the "Pacer Test" you featured in your most recent video before this one (when you were running back and forth over 15 meters on grass). Ha Ha You kept having to change direction.
This course could have been way better with less out-and backs, AND getting the distance right. Also surprised the ice wasn't salted better. Congrats on a great run
Power couple. Congratulations on the W. The race director needs to do better with this course. With that many runners they could afford to have it certified as well.
Awwww....Lee does his best - I think his races are fairly well-run! (Pun not intended.) I will say that that course usually isn't anywhere near that short - wonder if a cone got misplaced this year.
Love you all racing. Great run, but 👎🏻 to that race! What an awful course, distance and crowd catch. (I'll let them have the snow and ice because Colorado in the winter is out of their control.)
"6:30 pace, almost to a stop "
next year I will pace you.
you two are great at voiceovers. That course is redonk but easy to plan or keep track of family doing it. Hope you had a wonderful rest of your day!
Great video and race by y’all - terrible course.
Cant control Boulder in late November, ice should be expected

Yup, it was strange to say the least. Might as well just have gone to a track.
The race was specifically shortened because of the icy course, I used to run this course every year, they deliberately shortened it and announced it to everyone that it would be shorter.
@@andrewmitchell5807 it was awful cuz the whole course was out and backs with full 180 turns and also the course was .3 short which is atrociously bad
that has got to be the worst 5k course of all time. 5 180 turns and they couldn't even make it 5k.
Very surprising, all the roads are blocked off anyway just extend it, never even seen a parkrun off by more than 100 metres or so
Apparently it was a last-minute mod to avoid some even worse roads
Cold hands, warm heart! 😊You two are so cute together.
Oof.. that skating rink of a course was a groin pull waiting to happen. Great vid.
Great job out there! Love the double feature! Colder Boulder next?
Great video and commentary. Super dynamics!
3:37 “It slows you down even more”
Proceeds to go 4:50 pace
Didnt know you guys had a code to buy stuff from soar, gonna get something rn, thanks!
I'm sorry, you're missing the required minimum Georgie content.
Back to back race POV vids. Love it!
Absolute banger. Love the style of this video
Much Love from England!

I love your little dog you have with you in your videos.
I think they say that you lose one second for every 90 degrees of turning you do when done quickly, so those turnarounds are 2s
Nice video. My turkey trot had 2 running 15:20. A mid-21 got me 69th out of around 1000 , and 26th in my age range for my gender.

Wearing a singlet over a long sleeve is wild
Fantastic intro guys!

@@DonD-m6i bro what
What foam roller does she have? I saw it in her 10k trail video and really liked it!
Gotta love the Allie insert!

i love race commentaries!
Maurten jelly breakfast for the turkey trot is scandalous
dual voiceovers are peak

Being an RD is tough, they do their best. Also: turkey trot, yo.
Don’t worry, I’ve had the same experience with 180s yesterday. Had 4 of them, and still surprisingly ran a 16:15
Your a menace that’s why😂
Turkey Trots are the best! I've only ever done two, but they were my two fastest 5ks ever (17:14 and 17:11).
You gotta wonder how fast Spencer could have gone if he wasn't pacing Allie
What is the name of those shades ally is wearing?
Under 45mins gang ------->
LETS GET IT
I like this video
There's a button for that! 😊
@tak-el-uc i used it now
dang allies fast
I did a 10k yesterday does that count as a turkey trot
Never got a notification
spencer come to joe creason for the parkrun every saturday the hill will slow you down
I’m curious what both of your resting heart rates are as runners.
29 in a row at Pequot Spence
Woooooooo!🎉
A race that would have been cancelled if it was in the UK because snow/ice. Much too dangerous. 😂
classic.
Not a full 5km, fucking crazy
w video
👍👍
👍
0 turkey trots.. but I usually get a run in.., the good turkey trots are too far for me.
buck buck Meow
5K 🤣
Yeah, you paced her. Like you paced her when she beat you at pushups, and beat you at pull-ups, and beat you at sit-ups.
What is this course 😂😂
Love you all racing. Great run, but 👎🏻 to that race! What an awful course, distance and crowd catch. (I'll let them have the snow and ice because Colorado in the winter is out of their control.)
Zero
Not liking the fast forward
Boulder hates shoveling and doing anything about the ice
Not fun.
Awesome race, terrible course. So short and those loops looked annoying.
Horrible course, but you had a good time.
The worst course in history.
what an annoying course
This course is terribleeeee
worst course
First.
First
I paced Allie, there I fixed your title, no need for a possessive pronoun.
