    Hey man.... I just want to say, as one of the runners you'd lap in a race like this.... big respect for your mentality about sharing space and everyone has a fair shot at the racing line. Everyone starts somewhere... I'm in the 21:xx range now, and working to get better every day.

You looked like a racing driver in the best car overtaking everyone after having been forced to start at the back of the grid. Will have to get down to Dulwich again as one of my favourites. When I first ran there back in 2013 there were only about 300 running from memory.

    Boommmsshhhaakkkalaka that was a great video too watch and you u were miles ahead of everyone at the end... 🎉🎉🎉Yes runners SHOULD wear their club tops I absolutely love screaming out the clubs name when I'm volunteering (or running) parkrun plus a lot of runners come back & thank me for cheering their club although maybe banging my tambourine and shaking my maracas has a lot too do with it..😂.#keeponkeepungonNik....x

    I ran parkrun and almost won for the first time. I was first until 4.8k but got passed in the final 200 😢. 2/213 and 18:33

    Quite the speed for being "out of shape" lol. Way to push yourself man. Form is looking good 👍🏼

    In 3 weeks I will be doing my first Parkrun. I have done 5km on the treadmill last week in 34 minutes and I was close to vomiting (I couldn't even run 100 meters 4 months a go), so I have decided to give myself a bit of time to increase my intervals and raise my vo2 max.
    I want the Parkrun to be my real first outdoor running experience. I did a brief 1k run around the block and I kept getting literally blocked all the time by traffic and pedestrians (they have every right to use it) and it got pretty annoying So I called it a loss and will attempt the real run with other runners in a large space :)

    Amazing Nick. Also quite terrifying that 15.11 was only the 6th fastest park run that weekend????

    You've got to come down to Bushy Park, Nick! It's my local, and there's always a great energy.

      I love the way that guy felt his hamstring, almost to check if it’s still attached. Then he’s like.. Yeah I’m good, let’s go! 🤣

    I think parkrun is for everyone so if you want to wear club kit , then why not? However I've really enjoyed making friends at parkrun without our club vests on. People first, club second. I did a race run by a local club recently and it was so lovely to be cheered on by my parkrun pals from the club ❤❤

    Great outlook on park runs; fast or slow, everyone's welcome and respected.
    Victoria Park run in Glasgow looks like the place to test yourself- 4 out of the top 10 times that week, you up for it?!

      I thrive in the cold. That’s very cold 🥶 perhaps we take a family trip that side 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 and I give it a go!

    Great video and analysis on DP. I ran identical times there in the last 2 weeks. Pushy is overrated, you should try Brockwell and maybe go for a course record, which took 10+ years to break last year (15.02). I would be happy to pace for 2kms!

    • @justalilbester

      Oooof on a slightly hilly parkrun that could be tough but hey you never know unless you try.

  • @dgnbg5604

    Inspiring Nick👍🏻btw how do you incorporate a parkrun in your traingplan? Do you have a recovery day afterwards?

    • @justalilbester
      @justalilbester  Před 3 měsíci

      Not really. But I don’t put in back to back harder days.
      It’s good to do a weekly or bi-weekly parkrun. I’m often encouraging my athletes to do it.

    Great running with all that weaving and ducking that was easily a sub 15 run

    Club kits are fine. I’m not in a club, but lots of clubs come to my local parkrun. Have you tried Victoria parkrun in Belfast?

    • @justalilbester
      @justalilbester  Před 3 měsíci

      Na never. But if ever I’m in the area I’ll come give it a shot!! 🙌🏻

    9:33 I find it fascinating that you are keeping track of this kind of thing while you are running. You're crazy.
