@@lukeisrunning hi, sorry for the late reply! I'll be back at Camperdown today to volunteer but I won't be running. I've got a slight calf niggle so I'm resting it for now 😔

@Sam.Barclay ahh, not ideal hopefully it clears up soon

@@dan9549 thank you! 😁😁

@@raleyadventures thanks 😁 after a minute or two I don't really notice it so I don't think it makes much of a difference to my speed You guys' videos are also part of the reason I got the head mount for the camera! I saw that your headcam footage always looks great and it evidently isn't affecting your speed either!🏃⚡⚡

@@NeilMacBean thanks Neil 😁 yeah I want to get back to Stonehaven sometime and I'll definitely film it it when I do!

@@nicnak4475 thank you😁

@@Runner_Emma Aww Hilary's lovely, that'll be a great surprise for her! I already have plans in place for the 26th (I'll be elsewhere visiting family). If not for that I would have tried to get to LL. If you're back up this way in future let me know and we'll hopefully manage to get that parkrun selfie 😁

@@sesaye Thank you! I'm pretty pleased with how it came out but it still could have been a bit smoother towards the end. I used it last week at Kirkcaldy and checked a few times during the run to make sure it was still screwed in tightly. The footage was definitely smoother. I'll have the run footage posted next week and then the vlog should be up the week after 😁

@@Paul_Stewart_Strava I thought the exact same thing 😅 Almost 11 months later it still causes me some bother. The skin is still numb and if I kneel on it or bend it too far it can be pretty sore. It's sometimes pretty stiff and sore after a tough run too (but it's fine while running). All that being said, I'm just so happy to still be able to run that I'll gladly tolerate all that!

@@Sam.Barclay i was just about to say, to be able to run after that is outstanding, can i ask how you did it?

@@Paul_Stewart_Strava I fell during a parkrun. I'm not 100% sure how I managed to fall but I think I probably just slipped on the wet grass at the edge of the path. It was Loch Leven parkrun, the whole thing is on a stony, gravelly path and I probably fell on a particularly sharp stone. I'm not totally sure though because I fell into a puddle so couldn't even see whatever I landed on! It was about 200m from the end, I was able to get straight back up and finish the run. I knew I was bleeding but I didn't know the real extent of the injury until after I crossed the line and had a good look. I have another video where I go into a lot of detail about the whole experience of my injury and recovery but it is quite long and probably isn't the most exciting video to watch 😅

@@alistairmacdonald5541 It really is a rough kilometre! Thanks, I know this kind of video isn't exactly entertaining but hopefully it's still useful for people who'd like to visit. Haha thanks for the plug! 😁

@@nicnak4475 thank you 😁 this one was 19:30. I ended up injured a week or so later which was disappointing. It's nothing serious though and after a couple of weeks off I'm coming back fairly quickly, hopefully I'll manage that kind of time again before too long!

@@alistairmacdonald5541 thanks 😁 I'm glad it was helpful and I hope you enjoyed Camperdown!

@@martenkats6915 you've made so much progress since then! 😁 It's weird for me, some parkruns feel like they were ages ago when they weren't, and sometimes they feel relatively recent when they definitely aren't 😅

@@RJ-lw5kzthanks! I've got family towards the West coast, so I can stay there on the Friday night and have a relatively short trip to some of these parkruns in the morning 😁

@@SwimBikeRunStu just typical 😅

@@shapes2000 thanks for watching, hopefully you'll get that running mojo back! Sometimes before a run I feel a bit tired or like I won't manage it but afterwards I'm always glad that I ran regardless of the time. Filming definitely does affect my time but taking that into account this one was still a liiittle slower than I had hoped. My times went through a slight slump recently, whether filming or not, but now I'm about as fast as I've ever been - I think it's because of those reps I've been doing so I might make a video about that. I don't mean to seem like I'm complaining about the camera though, I enjoy the process of filming and editing these 😁

Great to see you back with another vlog. Well done

Excellent, what did you think of it? I really enjoyed Aviemore

Thank you 😁

Thanks! 😁😁

I'm just used to it I suppose 😛 they do occasionally slide down my nose a little so I have to push them back up but it's not often enough to bother me. Plus I don't like contacts and I'm way too blind to run without glasses 😅

Thank you! 😁

😆

It's definitely interesting to have tried it but I'm glad that I have a watch again now! I subscribed so if you make that video I'll see it 😁 if you want to do it a bit more scientifically than me it's probably best to go to a familiar route. This was my first time at Carlingwark Loch so I didn't have any previous runs there with the watch to compare it to. If I did I think it would have probably been more interesting

Yeah, I used Strava on my phone for a couple of runs after this before the new Garmin arrived. I kept it in an arm band/pocket and I couldn't check it while running so I still felt a bit naked during the runs 😅 I was very relieved when the new Garmin arrived! Thanks for watching, I should have some more videos up soon

Yeah, she read out the time for the first finisher to begin with 😅

Thanks 😁 I think I'm the opposite, I'm more likely to be inconsistent if I don't know how fast I'm going!

Excellent! I hope you enjoy it 😁 I would have said to come and say hi if you see me but I'll be away at Linwood parkrun this week. My dad will be funnel managing at Camperdown though (after he runs it 😜 )

Thank you 😁

Brilliant, well done! The first of many, I'm sure 😁 And thank you, he's still so happy with that run!

Yeah, he's doing great with his running 😁 the vast majority of his parkruns have been at our local one which is very hilly. If he had gone elsewhere a bit more often he definitely would have had some more sub 20s by now 😅 Thanks, I'm really enjoying your videos and hopefully I can keep on improving mine 😁

Thanks! I think he's still celebrating 😅😁

Thanks Marten 😁 it's definitely a good course for a fast time! 😃

Thank you! 😁
