It was a pleasure pacing you through the midsection of your race. Watching my running form drop shows I was going far too fast. Congrats on the PB and strong finish! -Black Top
Never have I seen a marathon video so accurately convey the gulf between where you think the finish line ought to be compared to where it actually is. It’s like false summit after false summit.
This has to be one of the greatest achievements since Zezima. The way you ran at the end like you’d accidentally skulled with 200m worth of gear. A true warrior. Your second best accomplishment behind only 99 slayer.
Brilliant stuff - you’ve definitely got sub three in the tank with a good training block/long runs under your belt. You’ve already got the short distance speed. Mills sub-3 Marathon war - bring it on!
Loving it!. Great race. Such a true depiction of a marathon. Garmin pace pro is epic. It has led me to 10k and Half PB's is this mara block, bring on Abingdon Suday week!!
Great video, agree the pacing from the 3:15 team was....eccentric. I had exactly the same thoughts approaching the finish line! Congratulations on your PB
Oh J Mills that was bloody brilliant. Your commentary made a half hour video fly by and even though I knew your result I was still urging you along all the way. You even included me in the video (7:00). It was fun seeing the roads I know so well and that stretch up the “bastard hill” and along the river is on one of my regular routes. Well done again and look forward to more of your content.
Well done.. loved this video as i did it too, thought it was a good event, well run though as you said defo not flat. I did see you at 13k ish and did give you a shout.. you looked in the zone and obviously were! Great when a plan comes off! Keep up the good work🎉
@@CrownMyRun wanted 3:30 And snuck under it. Was a great day! You must be licking your lips at the prospect of a sub 3 attempt? Any more marathons booked.
@@osianlewis1346 Ah nice one mate . Yeah, definitely. I did have Manchester booked but think I'm gonna defer for a year to watch my mate at London Marathon on the same day. So it's whether I go for Brighton again or maybe Newport!
@@CrownMyRun waw you must be very patient.. if i was as close to you to sub3 id be booking the next marathon i could find. We have some good trail runs in mid wales would make for some great crown my run footage 😜
Well done J Mills. I was cheering as you were absolutely motoring up that hill at 40k. Very impressive time. Sub-3 on the cards for a spring marathon? 👀
Seasoned runner for 40 years loved the commentary my laungage is more ripe towards the end it’s the only way to get through it a mind game and the marathon does it good viewing
Wow! A superhuman performance, awesomely paced negative split and trademark J Mills kick! Big congrats on a massive marathon PB 👏 And an excellent video & commentary of course 😁
What a run!! Nicely paced. That feeling at the end where the finish line never comes - I know it so well!! Berlin was exactly like that! Where is the flippin Brandenburg Gate??!!! Sub 3 is definitely on 💪💪
@@CrownMyRun it's my local town, born and bred, yet I had no idea where the finish was 😂. I was just about to cry as we were running alongside the river.
If there is one thing I have learned from these videos is that no matter how bad you feel you got to kick as hard as possible towards the finish line. Almost got me into D Mills heart rate territory at the end of my last race 😂
I did this! 3hrs 01min. Tough at the end when the inclines started at Mile 17. I agree with halfway, it started to feel a bit harder for a while. There was quite a bit of headwind to be fair. Great job !
Before the race it had my predicted time at 3 hours 1 minute. It actually has it at 2 hours 58 now interestingly haha! My previous marathon blocks Garmin had me down for doing 2:52s!!
bloody good going man! you definitely have a sub 3 in you next time with a training plan! Do you coach yourself? follow any sort of plans? also goal for GSR? I'm hoping for sub70 but had a niggle that's stopped me in my tracks the last 10 days so mileage has fell off a cliff - reckon I go out on pace and try hold it? suffer the final 6k if I cant hold it haha.
Cheers mate. I reckon go off ever so slightly slower for the first half, then try and speed up! Self coached, yes. I read all sorts of different training plans/ watch videos to come up with something for myself. Goal for GSR if my legs come back to life is Sub60 - but that's unlikely. Try and go quicker than 4:00/km which is still my half PB after Torbay was cancelled!
Do you find individual km pace splits to be a bit overbearing from pacepro? I found this during Dublin half recently, which also has some hills. Do you think it's a lesser evil than having fewer, less precise splits?
I think there's a bit of luck in it/depends on the course At Hastings half earlier this year it was definitely overbearing, as there were many fairly steep inclines within each KM that the pace pro plan couldn't pick out (telling me to do 3:55/km and I'm looking up mount Everest vibes) as it can only average them out Here, as the hills were more gently undulating, it almost perfectly picked out for me when to push slightly or not and I could follow it pretty much religiously until 35KM.
Absolutely love this, great run man! If you ever wanna do some collabs and challenges give me a shout- Im going for sub 3 in Manchester but coming back from a stress fracture in April so have some speed to find over the next 6 months! I’m in Sussex 🙌🏻 How are you managing the insta360 battery so well? Set time length for recording or just winging it? Love the work, keep it up 🙌🏻🙌🏻
What's this? Celebrating mediocrity! I thought you were going for the sub 3hr or blow up marathon option! That is what we all voted for! Looks like you rigged the final result for an easy PB!
It was a pleasure pacing you through the midsection of your race. Watching my running form drop shows I was going far too fast. Congrats on the PB and strong finish! -Black Top
Ah man, thank you, helped me so much as it started to get tough! I hope your final 10K wasn't too much torture!
Never have I seen a marathon video so accurately convey the gulf between where you think the finish line ought to be compared to where it actually is. It’s like false summit after false summit.
Thank the lord I got there in end!
Brilliant mate!
‘Have I got a kick? You fucking bet I have!’ 😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
“WHERE IS THE FINISH LINE, WHY IS THERE A STUPID POLE” 😭😂😂
I came to the comments looking for a WHY IS THERE A STUPID POLE appreciation post
🤣🤣🤣
both things I remember thinking when doing Chester in 2022!
Lol my exacts thoughts at the race! felt like an eternity to get to the finish!
That was absolutely fucking brilliant, perhaps one of the best videos so far. Keep them coming.
Cheers mate, I will do!
This has to be one of the greatest achievements since Zezima. The way you ran at the end like you’d accidentally skulled with 200m worth of gear. A true warrior. Your second best accomplishment behind only 99 slayer.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I will soon have 99 Slayer on OSRS that will be a bigger achievement than a Sub 2 marathon.
Class commentary

🤞🤞🤞
3 minutes ago just as I’m sitting down and it’s a 33 minute video? J mills you’ve outdone yourself again
Haha, hope you enjoyed!
That kick at the end of the marathon just shows the pedigree in the mills genes!!! Smashed it well done!
Thank you!!
What a journey! Congrats on the PB and great video
Thank you!!
Mills never does a race without having a crazy kick at the end 😂
And may there never be!
Outstanding pacing!! Loved the commentary...Congrats!
Thank you!!
Buzzing to watch, may or may not know the result 🎉👀 Well done J mills!
Cheers lad
Well done that man J Mills, close to a pacing masterclass. Nicely done, keep up the good work! 💪
Cheers mate, I shall try!
Great stuff 🔥

Congrats!!! Gosh that finish line took forever! I was exhausted by the end! You’ll be under 3 hrs before you know it! I can’t wait!
Thank you, Mary!
INTENSE video JMills 😱 Massive congrats on your huge PB. You raced it very well considering the circumstances!
Thank you mate!
"There is a new CMR video...and it's 33 minutes!" 😁 Great running 👏

Lovely stuff J Mills, enjoyed watching every second of your efforts, sitting here on the sofa which is as close as I intend to get to a full marathon.
🤣🤣🤣
That final K felt like a whole marathon! I was exhausted watching 🤣 Fanbloodytastic! well done
Cheers!
Your best video yet. And your best race yet. More to come of both I hope. Sorry we didn't get to see you on the day.
Thanks guys. Was a shame I didn't catch you both & really sorry Dawn didn't manage to finish, I'm sure she'll bounce back stronger!
That was absolutely brilliant, I loved it - great, great storytelling mixed with a Come Dine With Me style narration 👍
Cheers mate!!
Fantastic stuff 👏 👌 Really enjoyed this one, and you paced it so well.
Cheers mate!
Congrats great viewing and was pissing myself that last k as you said everything I do swearing and cursing everything - the cobbles, the pole 🤣🤣🤣

Well done J Mills. I was cheering as you were absolutely motoring up that hill at 40k. Very impressive time. Sub-3 on the cards for a spring marathon? 👀
Thank you mate, I did actually hear you but was very much in the zone 🤣🤣. Definitely helped me not drop into the 3 hour 6min range - legend!!

Many thanks!
Great video! Well done
Cheers mate!
Well done Jody, great running and videoing. 😀
Funny how we can find a finish no matter how long thinking, “bugger it today, just get over that line” 😂

Thank you!!!
Go Jody Go ❤️

What a run well done J Mills!
😊😊😊
Bloody brilliant!!.. 🎉🎉🎉🎉x
Thank you!!!
J Mills, you absolute hero! What a run that was… AND you didn’t run out of battery either. How?!
Haha, thanks mate! Brought 2 cheeky cameras along!
@@CrownMyRun Thought you might have - such commitment to the (worthy) cause. A PB and capturing it all on camera is top, top work 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
@@nrg_runs I think it actually makes me think about the pain a bit less as im thinking about which bits to capture!
@@CrownMyRun The art of distraction 👌🏼
Well done mate 😄with a bit more specific marathon training you’ll have sub 3 easy.
Cheers mate
Nice work! Did you use any gels during the run?
I did. Gel every 20mins and managed 7 before I couldn't handle anymore haha
Watch chatting absolute bollocks ...... lyrical genius 😂
🤣🤣🤣
Great running. "Do I have a kick in me..................", fabulous
🤣🤣🤣
Masterclass.

Great vid! How does your actual pace compare to your Garmin lactate threshold and race predictor? I can’t seem to match my Garmin race times!
