Racing my First Marathon in Amsterdam! 26.2 Miles of Bliss and Incredible Pain!

- The Amsterdam Marathon is in the books. I had a blast, I really did have a blast, especially the first 20 miles before the wheels came off a little bit. The Amsterdam Marathon course is known for how flat it is, and usually good weather, which was the case today in the 44th edition of the marathon. The Amsterdam Marathon was a HUGE learning moment for me, as this was my first road marathon, much different than what I'm used to racing out on the trails and mountains of Colorado. I will walk away with many great memories and lessons from this journey in the Amsterdam marathon 2019, and look forward to the next challenge, which just over the horizon.

Seth changed clothes, got a massage, drank a beer, ate two sandwiches, and took two time lapses, all in the amount of time it took normal people just to finish.
There was a live stream of the Amsterdam marathon on CZcams and 95% of the chat was Seth's subscribers đđ Seth, we love you and are so proud of you!!
knowing seth committed to going back and forth for those shots at the end (i.e. going up the stairs and then going back down to pick up the camera) post marathon is the type of extra effort that i appreciate and love from his channel :)
He ran
Iâm not crying ... you are!! That vlog music, coupled with a CZcams family members yelling ârhythm!! Rhythm !!â Oh man! Just such an awesome journey so far Seth. Canât wait to see what you do next mate. Safe travels home to true love đ you rock Seth! đđťđŚđş
For a committed man there is no failure just lessons learned
Awesome halfway time Seth, but there is still Houston. It's really flat too and I'm sure if you go out a little more conservative you'll be fine :) Great job anyways
Why am I so emotional watching this ?! Seth youâre the best.
Yesterday I was about to go for a nice and easy long run. My plan was to run about 12k in
Letâs meet in Houston in January
Your positive attitude is contagious and inspiring! Like always thank you for bringing us along your amazing journey! Canât wait to celebrate your OTQ in the very near future!
Proud of you Seth! This is also one of my favorite blogs you've posted. It's great to see the satisfaction at the finish line after allllll the work you put in. Seeing it everyday from the viewers perspective is so cool. Awesome race!!
First Kofuzi, now you....who the heck keeps cutting onions?!?!
Youâre just amazing! you have already inspired a lot of people around the world who tried their best to achieve their running goals!
Great job staying positive even though you missed your goal.
Congratulations on a fantastic time, Seth! I have loved following along on your journey to the start line in Amsterdam. Itâs been truly inspirational. So much great content. Iâm running Frankfurt Marathon next weekend and can barely contain my excitement after watching todayâs Vlog. Recover well brother. Peace
Haven't finished watching, but I'm feeling incredibly proud of you, Seth! Was tracking your run throughout, and was cheering throughout the night. Upwards and onwards! đ
Found myself shouting 'go on Seth' on the playback. Truly inspiring, Seth. Only found your channel a couple of months ago and being a family dad of two young boys it's so refreshing to see how you balance life and performance.
I absolutely love that you are looking this as lessons learned and taking it positively and in stride. No where to go but up from here. Thanks for documenting your journey!
I saw you cross the finish line, which looked like a huge struggle. I really admire your positive mindset. Such an inspiration. Live and learn indeed!!
