    You said you can do sub 17 for 5km, which is serious time man. Just wondering, what kind of run specific training I should do to even get 18 mins 5km, and what weight I should be at, roughly?? Thanks man, solid effort.

    • @Harry-Palmer
      @Harry-Palmer  Před 3 lety

      Thanks pal! Really hard one to answer there. Weight wise I would say that's a super hard question to answer as everyone is different, what I would say is don't worry about the weight as the training will bring that down naturally anyway. With the training keep it consistent. Perhaps 2 actual hard sessions a week and then the rest nice and easy. One of those sessions could be a shorter hard one I.E above race pace, and then the other could be more of a tempo run

      @@Harry-Palmer People doing that job get formally briefed about what is and isn’t allowed. They’re told that if they ignore them the venue could lose its licence and they won’t get work again. The Covid rules for this event aren’t up to the organisers (otherwise they’d let everyone in). You have absolutely no idea how many entitled dicks had already told him that the rules didn’t apply to them before you encountered him, and people are only human.
      When you decided to include some abuse for the guy you say was rude to you in this video I imagine you thought the impression people would get is that you’re a great guy and some other bloke is a tit. I can only tell you that the impression it gave me was the opposite.

    Hay Harry, great race by the way…. They way you speak about the security guard is disgusting… You shouldn’t talk about anyone in that way. That’s someone’s son, someone’s dad and someone who’s doing their job on a hot day.
    Everyone talks about online abuse, and your abusing someone publicly on a online platform. How would you feel if someone spoke about you like that.
    My partner wanted to come watch me race at Dorney and didn’t because the event info said no spectators. Worth considering the rules before you start shaming people for doing there job. Just as you were trying to do yours.

    • @Harry-Palmer
      @Harry-Palmer  Před 3 lety

      Thanks for the comment James. Firstly apologies if any of it offended you. Never my intention to offend anyone but unfortunately nower days you can’t say anything without offending someone.
      Maybe I was a bit harsh but my point was he nearly refused myself and my girlfriend into the race when we clearly explained the situation and the fact the event organiser specifically said she could come in the help film. Even after I explained that he was still being difficult so I think I’m well within my right to be pretty frustrated by that.
      There’s doing your job and then there’s being annoying for the sake of it. Fair play for standing out in the sun all day, but doesn’t mean you have to be difficult. I wasn’t the only person that found that- everyone else I talked to said the same thing.
      Again thanks for the comment. Hope you had a good race and sorry if any of what I said offended you. Good luck in any other races you have this season 👍🏻
