I had a 10k Brutal run to complete this weekend....and it coincided with someone asking me "why do you like running". So, I thought I'd deal with both at once. WWW. Brutal.run for awesome off road runs in the UK, South.
Man watching your videos as a fellow big guy (although not that big I'm 6'3 and around 220) has motivated me to get out and run again. I haven't ran since my highschool track days, so it's been tough but watching your videos has helped me get half way through my first couch to 5k program. Before I couldn't run for more than 30 seconds now I can go 20 minutes at a time. It was all about just accepting the initial pain of starting something new,. Thanks so much brotha, keep up the good work!
I was exactly like you. It’s uncanny. I hated running. Not run since school and I’m 44 now. Just about doing a sub 30mins 5k-started at 45mins 5k last June when I started. I agree with you, it’s primal and it’s relatively easy to do-no gear needed. I was into road cycling but a new baby has forced me to run-love it now. Cycling is secondary. Keep up your vids. I really enjoy them.
Hey man I appreciate the content and effort put into the videos. I saw your video about the CRF 250 l ( my new bike) and ive recently right when covid-19 started (i lost my job) started to change my life, from cigarettes, alcohol and recreational activities lol.. also working like 60+ hours a week - to doing exercise everyday, and gotten into running even tho im heavy as fuck atm ive lost 10 kilos and still going. Im reading "cant hurt me" by david goggins a US navy seal, and I saw the other video you made, where you talk about being heavy and starting running. Ive never ever, considered myself a runner at all. I was always just good at lifting heavy shit at work. I try to do things that suck, and i hate everyday and I feel better than i've done in 10+ years, and I keep surprising myself! Anyways! cool videos stay safe!
A 60 minute run gets me out of town, empties the mind, and the whole lot takes me 90 minutes tops, including the shower I was going to take anyways. Nice videos btw.
Watching the brutal reminded me when I lived in Guildford. Something that you might be interested in, try Tri Adventure. Very enjoyable competition, running, mountain biking and navigation
Yeah I'm 6'8" or 203cm tall. Approximately 215 lbs or 97.5 kg. Not light. But I love running. I really like your take on it. Not talking down to us or telling us what we have to do, but just giving what you like and inspiring by doing.
I understand "why run?"....but what I don't understand is "why run to get back to where you started?". Just stay where you are and get some tea and a muffin.
You. Are. Awesome. Recently found your vids. Absolutely love them. You're informative, entertaining and interesting. Thank you.
I’ve binged your videos! Love your humor and your genuine personality.
Congrats on all your success! Cheers 🥂
Thanks 🙏
I got into running because it's the most portable form of exercise. Just some shirt,short,shoes and you can do it just about anywhere.
"Why, have I lost my car keys?" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

This guy is so funny! Especially because it’s funniness is organic and natural the perfect mixture of masculinity pride and humility, incredible
Good point, well put. Enjoying the videos! Nixon is great. My hound wouldn’t make it to the end of the street... 😂😂

Haha. Another great video… now we need to know what you drive though! Maybe a car video?!
So many reasons 👍
X3M is no slouch ! but that aside i agree with you that running in a race is far more rewarding than winning a car race (at santa pod)
Great
What kinda car is it?
It's a Volvo, looks like a V60 but they're all pretty similar inside I think
A fast as fuck kind of car.
230lbs! How tall are you?
He's 6'6
Hi Mark, ive just started heart rate running training. Was just wondering if you have ever done it and any tips?
Getting punched in the face is much easier than running. I much prefer sparring to running, more fun and easier in most cases
I understand "why run?"....but what I don't understand is "why run to get back to where you started?". Just stay where you are and get some tea and a muffin.
Endorphin’s are better then tea and muffin
@@azza4793 you don't know my wife's muffins...😋
