- Join us as we head to Oxford for this year's Oxford Half 2023! Starting off in the town centre and heading out for 7 miles before turning and returning to town this quick course can help you run a pb! This week Speedgoat and I run a steady race as we have NYC Marathon in a few weeks, so today was all about enjoying this event and having some fun!

I grew up near Oxford and couldn't resist going back and doing the half. I think I saw you at some point! It was my second half - my first being Hastings in March. Absolutely smashed my goal and couldn't believe it. I had such a great day here and the conditions were fantastic. Took 2 hours to do a 45 min bus journey back to my mum's though!
Great video and a great run. Brilliant support and volunteers
Looks like a great race, great energy too. Would love to run in Oxford some day! Great video 👏🏼
Was a amazing day! I smash my PB😃 Oxford was fantastic😁
Congrats
Dolly will be absolutely made up that she made the final cut! :) (I was on water duties with her and she was so chuffed she saw you at the end, she came over to tell me and was all happy and excited) :)
So pleased you loved it. I now live in Suffolk but Oxford is my home town. It would be a 9 from me. Great to see you both out there on Sunday. Oi oi!
Amazing work! I ran the bath half yesterday and I agree it was definitely fresher than last week 😂
Another great video, love it how you ask people around you for their views and mark out of 10. Keep up the amazing work 👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you
I would "metaphorically" KILL for that exact weather on race day, the levels I could push myself to....so jealous.
Thanks for the content!
Good afternoon. You are!!!! On fire!!!!!. Like to Fordy. A nice monday for everyone.
Boom!
You are everywhere! All the best for NYC, treat them bridges (13 & 16 miles) with respect and save some for mile 23. Brap!
Thank you
Good running yesterday, i gave you a few shouts as you ran past!
Awesome thank you!
Cracking vid buddy. This was my first ever half marathon, was really surprised by how many people there were, both running and supporting.
Congrats
Fantastic video and great event, said a quick hello at about 9 mile point and went onto get a PB. A solid 9.5, lost 1/2 a points due to the park and ride!! Keep up the great work.
Well done!!!
Great course and beat PB. Definitely do again next year. Was cold beforehand but soon warmed up and perfect conditions for the run. Must remember to book a restaurant though for the Saturday night as couldn't get in anywhere to eat 😞
See you next year
Great video….did you by any chance catch a strawberry (me in fancy dress running for charity) running near you around miles 1-4 marker？ I lost my earlier footage and trying to find ways to retrieve 😅 thanks so much in advance. Ruo
Great city Oxford. Spent a year there at the fag end of the 20th century and enjoyed myself. Not sure I'd enjoy a 13 mile run around it. As happened with the Vitality 10,000 last year, pounding around central London, I would be passing so many familiar, warm, friendly pubs. Heart-breaking.
It’s a great run
Glad you guys had a good run , will put the half on my to do list ... shame it's not part of the superhalfs.
Yeah would be a good addition
Park ride was a nightmare for me, by the time I got the event village @ 9:15 it was empty! Enjoyed the run though, little narrow in places but got a PB so can't complain!
Yeah they need to sort that
Looking good for NYC, best of luck. Looking super comfy in the clips, how were the shoes (1080?) ?
Not bad
Fancy coming down for the Great South Run one year?!
Aaah so this is a start studded video, was that Andy FOD runner as well As Ben? Fan favourite Aubrey was also taking part as well as yourself obviously 😜 Where's Si these days? Great turnout though, I was taking part in the Great South Run in Portsmouth which was also very well attended 👌🏻
Yeah all of them were there as Hoka and RUNNA have deep pockets 🤣🤣🤣
@@FordyRuns Alright for some hey 😂
I spy some superblasts on your feet Fordy ? Am I right son
No NB 1080 v13
