- Ben Parkes is a running coach, athlete, creator and one heck of a guy! In part 1 of our conversation, he talks about his process for making CZcams content, along with some strong views on promoting brands and products (why he refuses to do it and says he’ll NEVER do it). Also if you watch closely, you’ll catch Sarah Place chuckle at my Ben Parkes impression 🤣.
Coming soon…
Part 2: The mistake that @BenParkes says is hold back your running.
Part 3: Seriously, WHAT is Ben waiting for? (Ben talks about his relationship with Sarah Place).
Part 4: Ben’s favorite shoe.
There may be one more part depending on how ambitious I feel!
A big thanks to Ben for the time and thank you for watching!
Kori, I found your channel via the link that Ben posted on his video and have been watching them over the past few days. Got to say, really impressed. Great style, great editing and often a great message. Only downside is I wish they were longer! 🤣 Keep it up!!
Appreciate that, James!!!
Same!
Very much agree. Kori you have beautiful style to engage your interview partners! Keep up the good work! 👍☺️
Ben and Sarah are top notch and genuinely good and nice people and i believe that staying free and independent from a big brand is helping to stay that way. I also believe, that many viewers can really appreciate the hard work ( Sarah is a big part of the video production), which goes into all the videos
Without a doubt! We should all aspire to create something that brings as much inspiration and joy as their videos.

Its all about Sarah ;-)
That partnership is amazing!
This might be the evolution of your career we are watching..see you at 100k 🍻
Haha, we'll see. I try to focus on the stories. Whatever happens from there, happens!
He has a great perspective on things. I don’t know if I could just not look at analytics, but maybe that’s why he’s so successful!
You can drive yourself crazy looking at numbers. Ultimately the content has to be there.
Love Ben and his approach. 3:38 in this video that’s my comment on one of his videos 😂
Thanks hilarious! 😂
I love the interview. Man, you would have made an excellent recruiter (my career)! Also, what a lovely story about Ben and Sarah. May they have much success and may you take off as well Kori. I want to be one of the ones who gets to say, "I remember when Kori was just starting!" :) Take care and have an awesome day.
We'll see, John! Honestly I can say I was thrilled to just have a hundred subscribers. Anything more than that is gravy!
Kori. You are the man. I am INHALING your videos.
I'm thrilled to hear that!
This is so refreshing! You and Ben both!
Thanks so much!
Ben is a legend. Cheers for the video Kori.
Agreed! Thanks, Benny!
Love this Kori! And Ben's channel is fantastic too. I remember emailing Ben three years ago and asking him what microphone he used on his Go Pro camera to record his London marathon video. He took the time to give me a very detailed reply. Looking forward to more of this interview!
I've interviewed countless people over the years but Ben may have been one of the most open. It was really refreshing! He's the real deal!
Great video Kori!! I agree that Ben’s positive message is very catching. Thank you for sharing. Looking forward to more.
Thanks, Dr. Andrew!
So refreshing to see good decent people connecting. Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved the teaser at the end Kori 😏
Thanks, Jay!
This is great. From the spot-on "Hellovribuddy" to the insight about Ben not taking sponsorship. Enjoyed it all.
Glad you enjoyed it, Toby! Ben was really a great interview!
Kori this is SO GOOD!!!! I mean, I know you’re a professional and this is what you do, but it’s clear that you made Ben feel really comfortable and asked him some really great questions. I think I’ve seen all of his videos and was really surprised by his answer to the sponsorship question…it made me respect him even more! Really looking forward to the next part of the interview!
Thank you! He was a joy to chat with!
Oh Kori!! lol you are good at teasing with your endings lol. Thank you for making another great video and also for having Ben on, he is one of my favorites too!!
Thank you!!!! I can't wait to share the rest!
That's AWESOME Kori! Ben Parks! Great video! What timing on the ending of your video LOL
🤣
This is very good, Kori. Ben is such an authentic guy. That's what makes him stand out.
He's the real deal!
@@KoriRuns he sure is. I have high hopes for you too though! 😉
Great video Kori! I enjoy following Ben's channel as well.
Thanks, Jay!
Great intro!!🤣
Thanks!
Kori Kori, you are such a cliffhanger but we love you all the same, patiently waiting for the next video 🤗!
It's coming right after the holiday!
Really enjoyed this, Kori. I look forward to all of your videos. I have to say, I didn’t know who Ben was🤯, but I’m following now! Loved his take on endorsement deals. I have to say, I’m immediately turned off when I know a running influencer is taking endorsements. I can’t blame them, but I no longer trust their word on products. Good to know Ben won’t be taking any deals.👍🏻
Thanks, Tiff! Ben is a special guy! No doubt about it!
Kori, great interview with Ben, he is such an interesting person!
He really is. And totally authentic!
I really enjoyed part 1 & 2. Who's up next for a chat?
Honestly I don't know. Ben happened to be in town for the Brooklyn Half. I'm not necessity focused on interviews but I certainly will do them when it feels right.
