Legend!! Love this - Never loved & hated someone so much in a race. Pleasure to meet you finally and help each other across the line! 🙌🏻 What’s next?
The man the legend - Dan @therunningmanc! Haha , what a day! Firstly, I want to thank you personally for being there for me when times got tough 💪! This was a very hard race but spending 15+ miles with you made for light work! It was an absolute pleasure 🙏. I hope our paths cross again in the very near future as we definitely made it special 😀.
What a fantastic and inspiring video mate, running community is unrivalled - you’ve perked me up for Edinburgh next month. Let’s Gooooo!
Yessss my man 💪 !! let's Gooo! Your absolutely spot on mate. Everyone looks out for each other it's incredible! Thanks for watching mate.... you going to smash Edinburgh. Good luck 👍
Got goosebumps watching this!! The atmosphere on the day was epic!!!
Great video and also everything said is so true, it showed us what a real marathon experience is and not a shiny tictok or reel!
It’s a rollercoaster of emotions and also not every marathon goes to plan, but the bond you guys have built with the experience will last a lifetime 🥰
Great to bump into you again, see you next year 😂
It was absolutely epic seeing you again mate. Couldn't have even planned that lol.
Yeah your absolutely spot on buddy. Its not some shiny reel or Tik tok , saying you've got this.
It's 2 real people really helping each other through the think and thin of a marathon. It really is priceless. I've never known how helpful having someone with you could be, until now.
Tha is again for watching and your strong words of support. They really do mean lot mate. Thank you.
Haha see you at the next one..... 😉
This is a great video Stephen it really captured what the Manchester Marathon is about, my knee went 9 miles in I wouldn’t have got to the end without that crowd and the other runners, well done mate! 💪🏅🏃♂️❤️
Thank you so much mate! Yeah I'm with you on that one. What a fantastic experience it was to have so many people turn up and shout your name. I've never had that sense of working with someone to get each other over the line. An now I know it's much more of a fantastic experience! Hope your recovery well mate and the knee isn't giving you too much hassle 😉
Congratulations to you Stephen and Dan on completing the Manchester Marathon , well done , interesting how you compare the Edinburgh marathon to Manchester regarding the crowds and noise along the course , I hope you celebrated your wonderful achievement with 🍷 and 🎂 cake or even "a wee dram"
Thank you very much, Alan! What a day! Meeting Dan on route really changed my mindset, as you can see from the vlog. We really helped each other over the line massively. I'll do a full recap vlog and explain further, but it shows how much community and support can really help you push through. The comparison was based on support and the route its self. I think even down to finishing were you start is epic. London doesn't even do that. Thanks again for watching mate. I really appreciate the support 🙏
Great video Stephen well done!!.. The amount of people shouting ur name was amazing & great you went over the line with Dan...👍🏻Kudos too Grant was that Davy Roberts?... He runs 24/7 that guy.. 😂Well done 🏃🏼🏃🏼🏃🏼x
Thanks so much, Liz 🙏. As always, your support is massively appreciated 👏. Yeah , you know it suddenly hit both of us that time didn't matter. What mattered is that we were there for each other. It really was something special. The endorphins, after this, really reflect those of a pb. Except you know you worked hard as part of a team to get there. It was fantastic 👏.
Yeah me Davy and grant all travelled down together. I'll cover more in the recap vlog. Davy runs the fling a week on Sunday!
This is brilliant I crossed the finish almost exactly the same time as you pair. Im in the orange t shirt. I love your video because I had the same view of the finish straight so I can watch it and relive it! Epic event. Well done!
This is epic mate! Congratulations for getting it done ✔️. Same as yourself I loved this even and everything the people of Manchester dome for it. It really was epic! Thanks for watching mate 👍
Bet that bloke with the yellow wheelbarrow made loads of friends at the start of the race.. 😮
Yes most definitely! I bet you at the end people were trying to get in it. Thanks for watching 👀 🙂 🙏
Outstanding! You were looking fresh as a daisy when I was speaking to you in the school. After my last marathon, I wanted a Stannah Stairlift installed into the school 😂
Thanks, mate! I really appreciate you checking it out. Haha, it's seems to get better the more marathons you do. I suppose it's how much you wreck your legs on the day 🤣. We ended up walking/running the last few miles, so it was damage limitation. All in all, though, it was a fantastic day out. I can imagine 🤣. I was very similar, trying to fly home after the London marathon. We had to use steps, up to the plane 🤣🤣
Wow I absolutely loved this. This is exactly what I love about our sport, you complete legend
Ah thank you so much! This is hugely appreciated 👏. Yes!! Your spot on , our running community, really is something else! So many people don't even know it exists 😊. Thanks for watching.
Fantastic video. I guess the Manchester Marathon is my next port of call.
Thanks mate I hugely appreciate that 👍. Yeah Manchester was amazing. The crowd were something else, I'll tell you that.
What a day, footage looks great, really captures the atmosphere, well done and your positivity shines through
Thank you so much mate! Yeah ot was very special and it holds a very special place in my heart now. I'll definitely be back. Thanks again for watching.
Absolutely brilliant watch mate. Well done. Gives me an idea of what to expect in August for my first ever half marathon. Can't wait for it now. Well done.
ATVB
Alan
Thanks so much for that mate! It really was a race that made me realise that's its not all about chasing times. It's the experience and the people that matter. If you can go and enjoy it you'll come away feeling very satisfied also. Yeah mate , you've got this. It will be hard but if you stick to the training you'll be great. If you need any help or that, give me a shout. I could try and give you a few pointers 😁
@@runningwithstephen cheers mate. Any pointers would be appreciated. I followed you on strava and tik tok too.
@@MyScottishAdventures top man 👍. I'll follow back 💯
Well done Stephen looked a real sufferfest for you 🏃🏻💪💪💪🥇
Thanks mate! Yeah towards the end time on feet played a huge part. But to get it over the line with Dan, meant the world. Better than a pb 💯
What a great capture of a fantastic day, that end bit with runningmanc as well, goosebumps! Need to stop having me going at the end of your vlogs!
Absoutely magnificent to spend the day with you and well done on a fantastic run mate. Smashed it 💖🔥
Mate.... I had goose bumps editing it 😅.
All honesty mate it was my pleasure to spend the day with yous. We all kept each other going. A great little road trip. Really couldn't have worked out any better with the driving etc.
Thanks again for all your support mate. It's hugely appreciated 👏.
Great vlog Stephen mate 👍 that Manchester atmosphere really was special. The running community is like no other, forming new friendships means more than any PBs. Big well done on completing another marathon and well done to Dan too 👏
Thank you so much mate and you too for absolutely nailing it! Yeah your exactly right, me and Dan have spoke for years but never really "bumped" into each other. It's mad because when I need it the most he was there and like wise when he needed it most I was there! It's amazing. How ever i seem to miss you mate! Going to have to track your tracker next time! Thanks for watching mate 👍
A really inspirational vid! We get so sucked into pace & PB’s, it’s too easy to forget to enjoy yourself! Massive well done!
Thank you so much. Yeah that's exactly it and I think it's taken this race for me to realise that. Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 😀 🙏. It really means a lot.
Fantastic vid. A true reflection of the Manchester Marathon. The crowds were immense 🎉 Got me round in my first sub 4!!
Thanks mate! Yeah I really like to show the good and the bad. An to show people that's alright if something doesn't go to plan.
Absolutely epic mate. Well done. It's an incredible course 🙌
Heartwarming video mate. What a journey! Massive congrats. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Thank you so much mate. I really appreciate the support 🙏. Yeah it really was quite a day of it haha. But we got there 😀
Community is the key mate. Great running lads. Huge kudos to you Stephen! 👏😎🤘🏅
You know mate your absolutely spot on. Without community we'd have nothing. It really is extra special seeing a race out with someone and making a day of it. Its epic. The endorphins are something else. Thanks again for the support mate 👍. It's hugely appreciated as always 💙
Top quality watch mate what a day 🙌🙌
Thanks bro! Just wish I spent more time with you and Davy. But it ended up a smashing day all round! Well done again to you too 👏
Well done Grant brilliant run.. 🏃🏼👍🏻x
Cracking video mate. Really does show the true running community and the strength of it.
Thanks for watching mate its hugely appreciated 👏. Top support as always 👍. Yeah your spot on mate. The running community is like no other. It really fantastic to be part of it 😀
Great running mate! Loved the video 👌
Thank you so mate it's hugely appreciated 👏
Well done Stephen! Cracking video and that atmosphere looked incredible 👏
Thanks mate it really was a very special time! Took me by complete surprise! Ah much different feeling of pb"ing. Thanks again for all the support mate 👍. Means so much 💙
Well done Stephen, I was watching the live feed as you came over the line with Dan - no idea at that point what a tough one it had been for you 👏👏🙂
Thank you mate 👍. Ah that's nice you caught us mate. Yeah from about half way I knew it wasn't happening. Then we helped each other. What a roller coaster. I'll cover all in a recap vlog this week. Thanks for the support as always mate 👍
@@runningwithstephen One of the guys I coach had a similar experience. He'd trained excellently, paced perfectly as we'd discussed in his race strategy for the first half. And then he just didn't feel like he could get his breath properly, so had to slow down and take a few walking breaks. He'd had a cold so it was probably due to the remnants of that. But he learnt a huge amount and finished in a creditable time. As you know, you win or you learn, and some races turn out to be a training run 😁
@NERunner absolutely spot on Simon. Sometimes it's a huge learning curve ie. Training run like you mentioned. Sets you up for a better race the next time.
Yeah sounds similar right enough as my hr was sky high at the start and I knew I had to bring it down to make the race sustainable. If I hadn't then I don't know If I'd even have finished.
@@runningwithstephen I'll be in London on Sunday (along with Louise) - my time at Edinburgh was less than 2 mins outside the GFA!!! It's taken me years to get in on the ballot, but the ballot went my way this time. I haven't had a good run of training so won't even see my PB in the distance - but a BQ may be possible 🤞
Amazing mate! That would be fantastic 😀. If all else fails mate , go and enjoy it. Soak up the atmosphere 👍. Good luck mate 👍
Bromance of Manchester 2024! Well done for forgetting about pace or time's and just having bloody fun. Amazing vlog 🔥 I will definitely be heading there in 2025 after seeing the support throughout the route.
Thank you so much mate 💙. As we said in our messages, this will be us one day 😀. I'm certain of it! Would love to run 1 with you. Still can't believe how this vlog turned out. The day was just as amazing as it seems. It was epic!
@runningwithstephen when I'm back in the saddle you'll know it and we can try schedule something for next year. I have for sure at least one more marathon in me, need to get the moneys worth from my shoes haha
Yes mate! Let's do it 💯. Looking forward to meeting you mate 👍
Fantastic video buddy! Glad to see you running with Dan. Well done both of you
Thanks mate! It really was something special, I don't know how the rest of the race gad went had I not met him. Really helped ticking off the miles and helping each other through 💪💪
@@runningwithstephen awesome buddy!
Great video lads 👏👏
Thanks mate 👍 what a day it was!
Nah I've seen this one...he dies at the end no? 😉😂 Stephen mate, I wish I'd made a bigger fuss when I seen you, we're only 5 minute friends but I'm proud as for ye, looks like ye said despite goals you loved this run, you're slowly inspiring me brother 😆 brilliant mate
Haha 😅! The banter... love it lol! I can't believe you commented.... remember you said you'd never 🤣. Thank you though man I really appreciate this! 5 minutes or 5 years it doesn't matter. It's the support for each other that counts my man 💪. Yes mate! Your spot on, despite everything , goals and negative vibes at the start. This was one of the bast races ever. So much so in thinking of signing back up for nest year....... you should come lol!
😂😂 it's hard for us to see just how much hard work you put in mate, especially with you being poorly to the whole build up that's some effort, your mascara was running faster than you but they couldn't tell and that's what matters mate, I loved the video, and by joining you mean personal water boy yes?...I'll jump a taxi cheers like a normie 😆 🤣....we'll see
🤣🤣🤣🤣!!
I agree...Manchester atmosphere was better than London. So good
It really was mate! Congrats on your sub 3 mate 👏
Well done mate I was in the 3.45 wave.think u run with me sort off
Fantastic mate how did you get on? Thanks for watching, it's hugely appreciated 👏. I had every intention of hitting a 3:30 but then everything changed as you seen 👀.
