0:04. Every runner ever who opens the window on a Sunday and its sunshine and no wind for their long run!

Thank you Jack!

Great to see all the youtubers at the start! Cool race have always wanted to do a 20 mile race in lead-up to marathon, would be ideal prep! Looks sunny too, great effort!

[@PoetWithPace]

Indeed ideal prep 👍🏼

You should be pleased and proud. What was your shoe choice? They made a slappedy slap sound like Alphaflys.

[@PoetWithPace]

Indeed very proud! They are a lot quieter than the alphas… adidas Pro 3

[@jimmyjames7800]

@@PoetWithPace A good shoe choice. I raced in Alphas on Sunday and they didn't quite suit a pot holed ridden hilly course. In hindsight, I should have also worn addidas Pro 3s (which I generally prefer anyway).

[@PoetWithPace]

@@jimmyjames7800 indeed! Lots out on course in latest Nike but all super noisy 😱

[@Mack.Tracks]

Great stuff, Donato! Glad the heel held up okay.

[@PoetWithPace]

Me too Mack! Was a bit worrying. Hope your knee is feeling better?

[@Mack.Tracks]

@@PoetWithPace Took an extra rest day instead of Parkrun tourism and I think that helped a lot. Taper time now 🎉

[@PoetWithPace]

@@Mack.Trackssmart move! Indeed we have done the hard work and now taper time 😜

[@callmeal4183]

An 'Ernest' comment about Mr Wise, Donato (Eric & Ernie reference). Looked like the race could have done with some Sunshine!

[@PoetWithPace]

Ahh Eric & Ernie happy memories. Indeed there was sunshine but too windy on sections to appreciate it till the dark clouds arrived 😱. Hope you enjoyed watching this?

[@callmeal4183]

@@PoetWithPaceIt looked like a very welcoming event. I might consider it for next year.

[@PoetWithPace]

@@callmeal4183indeed very welcoming 👍🏼

Great video, don't suppose you know the name of the Adidas vest you wore, cheers

[@PoetWithPace]

Sadly no idea what the vest is called as i have had this for many years

[@tworunningbrooms]

Really interesting video, how you thought your way through the best way to use your race to support marathon training. We were wondering what percentage of runners in a 20 mile race actually race the thing? Very few I would think.

[@PoetWithPace]

I think a lot were racing looking at finishing times and their predicted marathon times. Did see some other youtuber race at a different event at marathon pace for the whole 20
