The internet’s biggest mystery - “why does the Serious Runner have only 6k subs?”

[@TheSeriousRunner]

I'm guessing its a conspiracy.

@kofuzi, will you be filming, as usual?

"Long live the BAA!" "Long live the BAA!" I know it's coming, but still gets me every time 😂

[@KevinGreenMedia]

"Somebody keep an eye on Kofuzi" 🤣🤣🤣

[@jonathansandberg5267]

Seems like there are quite a few KZbinrs running Boston this year. Ben is Running, Kofuzi, Elijah Orr, I think Seth Demoor isn’t running but will be there filming. It’ll be interesting to see if they’re really serious about policing the video content or if it’s just you they don’t like.

[@jimoconnor8597]

Believe in the Run team is going as well. Will be interesting after the race to see what happens...

[@jonathansandberg5267]

Kofuzi’s video is still on KZbin with plenty of race content. Looks like the BAA just doesn’t like you.

[@RunnerWil]

😂😅😂 Damn even Kofuzi took a hit

[@timlaporte5231]

Hilarious! I ran the Boston 21 years ago with my wife in 3:30. We held hands over the final .2 miles and loved it. The thrill was the embodiment of every serious runner"s dream. Thanks for restoring some of those great memories.

[@TravelRunner]

The last minute was gold.

[@nickatnite16]

Guess Kofuzi will have full use of both arms for the 1st time ever in a marathon

[@TarasSkyJourney]

either he’d PR by 20 min or DNF because he’s less efficient that way. 😂

[@nickatnite16]

@@TarasSkyJourney true!

[@tomrankin4530]

Thank you for highlighting the BAA's ongoing war against epicness.

[@TheSeriousRunner]

I don't want people to look back and say "how could no one speak up"

[@rjhoopoe587]

This genuinely made me laugh out loud on several occasions, which of course is not what I seriously expect from a serious runner! Terrible frivolity! 😉

[@smellysam]

You need to do a "Long live the BAA" race tee.

[@Greg-me8le]

Just Remember, the BAA has eyes and ears everywhere. If you think you are alone anywhere around Boston, think not. They will not allow anything on or around this historic race course to be sullied by anything hobby joggish. And just because the rules say headphones are allowed but discouraged, know that if you wear them, they think less of you and it will be noted in their records for you.

[@kmartin6178]

Oh dang Kifuzi...they're ready for you!

[@perryanderson9335]

Really kind of Kipchoge to reach out to tell you that it was “great seeing you out there 🔥” 😂

[@eileenfcosta]

I’m now going to visualize my shoes bouncing me up hills. Thanks for that.

[@thejass]

“Long live the B.A.A.” 🦄😎😂🤣

[@PoetWithPace]

Amen 🏆

[@snowreptile8867]

Delightful tongue-in-cheek advice about running Boston. Excellent video.

Good luck out there. Best wishes from Lancashire, England.

Just found the ‘serious runner’ through Fordy runs channel, now I cannot watch any other runners streams without shaking my head and laughing, great channel keep on grinning 😊

[@TheSeriousRunner]

welcome! I hope you find this a valuable and educational resource

I'm running this year. Thanks for all the tips. I've written them in black Sharpie on my arm. I always thought the yellow and blue was kinda ugly until I saw the colors of this years celebration jacket. WTH???

[@TheSeriousRunner]

In case you missed it, there was footage leaked from a BAA meeting about the jacket: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5WphXmOerqUibs

[@shellycooper7610]

What a boring jacket!!

[@paultimothyL]

And somebody keep an eye on Kofuzi!! 🤣🤣🤣

[@levandmarthapolyakin-aaron2183]

Alas, poor Kofuzi. I knew him well.

[@shusonic1]

😂 Great stuff. Keep it up. 🎉

[@TheSeriousRunner]

thanks!

[@danyarwood7219]

Never running Boston again are you? 😂 Love the vid. Long Live the BAA! 😂

[@Wings_nut]

When I crest Heartbreak Hill, I know the legendary Citgo sign is not too far away. I love Tracksmith apparel, and own several pieces, just wish they weren't so $$$. Long live the BAA.

[@mattbarrett6186]

Brilliant 😂

[@maryjo6216]

I appreciate you so much. So funny.

[@TheSeriousRunner]

I appreciate you watching and commenting for the algorithm! 🙏

[@christinaclementson]

I just don’t get why they picked on you! Like you say, so many videos on You Tube. Long live the BAA! Hilarious video as always 😂

[@FordyRuns]

Brilliant

[@hammersmithbridge9115]

The first 10K is all downhill except the uphill parts of the downhill section which kinda kills off the feeling of it being downhill. Downhill tends to mean going in a downwards direction in case you are wondering during the fort 10K what happened to that.

[@TumoRuns]

This is superb 😂

[@TheSeriousRunner]

thank you!

3rd time trying to qualify on the 8th..... Im over 35 and finally got SUPER SHOES. maybe this'll be enough. but all my boozing is probably messing up my mitochondria.... and I cant get myself to run over 200 miles a month. if I can't do this I think im giving up.

Give up the booze instead bro, go get it 💥💥👊👊

Here’s an idea- livestream the entire race!

LOL! The BAA would not DARE to take on Kofuzi! Fantastic video, as always.

[@hawaiifranke7637]

Super bananas from Tracksmith? What a great idea! Now let me eat my adidas apple and my Nike nuts to get faster ...

[@mikedickerson3944]

It’s just not the full Boston Experience if you don’t go out too hard, blow up in the hills, and really struggle the last 5 miles.

[@michaelhaney1357]

I’ll tell Kipchoge you said hello - via a sign just past the Wellesley women.

[@Kelly_Ben]

New England privilege?? WTF is that exactly?? 😆 I just spent 2 hours ankle deep in mud, ice, and snow, in the pouring rain. It snowed 3 days ago, and it's going to be 70 in a few days. 😭 Now give me a damn super banana.

[@marlinweekley51]

Yikes! Kipchoge might want to get worried - who knew hobby joggers were doing THAT kind of training! The year of the “random baller”? 😂😂

[@LuisBecerra79]

Long live Kipchoge!! Long live the B.A.A!! Any other gas stations logo is not at all the same 🤷🏻‍♂️ Edit: keep and eye on Kofuzi 🤣😂🤣😆 someone had to snitch on him right 🤣😂😆

gonna be a boring race to watch. we already know who is going to win

[@hammersmithbridge9115]

The Wellsey College girls are not specifically cheering you on despite the noise they make - they are there to generally cheer everyone on - not a good idea to stop and ask for contact details as they really dont know who you are!

[@hammersmithbridge9115]

Don't forget to fake illness at the end and get a wheelchair into the medical tent and be put on a drip ready for the London Marathon in 6 days time - just a thought!
