My guy, this video means the world to me. Thank you for including me in this amazing series! ❤ Can’t wait to see you destroy the streets of chicago in 12 days 🔥

[@flobergruns]

The man himself. 👊🏼❤️‍🔥 thanks dude!

[@stevez3332]

Clark whats your goal time in Chi?

[@Demiduivenvoorden]

CLARK LETSGOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

[@notoriousrjg]

Honestly feel like this is the future of the channel. Not just your own training progress, but celebrating the achievements of others in the Floberg Cinematic Universe. Amazing to see y’all lift each other up like this. Beautiful!

[@flobergruns]

Agreed. It was one thing to take my filmmaking to a niche genre, and now it's a completely different frontier to use the skills in this new genre to tell stories that aren't my own. So much fun. Really appreciate this comment!!

[@Lalo_Runs]

Clark makes it look so easy 🙌🏾

[@flobergruns]

Right? An absolute beast.

[@peters1400]

He looks like he's breathing through his nose for the entire run!

[@teddymckinney4425]

It's wild how excited I am for Floberg to run Chicago and destroy 2:42. Clark and Floberg's pace is wild to see, as someone who just ran their first half 2 weeks ago in 1:49. Really enjoying the style and format of these videos every week. We're all rooting you on brother!

[@jonnymess]

Thanks for capturing the beauty of this race. I hope you know it means a lot to other runners, too, to have it documented. A little pissed I didn’t feature in it, though. I was only 987 racers behind Clark.

[@stephensouthall424]

Clark is such a beast! I see his consistency every day & it's an honor to be coached by him for my upcoming marathon!!

[@peterberno4461]

I've really been enjoying the Chicago Marathon prep series, and ran this Half with my girlfriend and remember seeing some guy flying down the back half of the course being followed by a bike. So cool to see it was one of my favorite running creators and to see the final product here!

[@journeywithjeffrey]

love the channel man. I'm a fellow dad and I'm starting my running journey soon and hopefully will be documenting along the way with my KZbin channel. keep up the great work!

[@mayer7777]

Discovered you through your Chicago marathon vlog and now I'm starting to watch all your other vids. Just wanna say your vids are awesome!

[@SAMOKFIT]

Great catching a glimpse of you this weekend brother and see you at the shake out

[@flobergruns]

Stoked to formally meet you, my man!!

[@Thepianoman77]

lets GOOOO!!!! Clark looks so effortless when he runs. Like its nothing. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@demetriuschamblee7313]

Great Friendship Love That Support. You both are pushing each other to be better.

[@SendingStache]

Great outlook on comparison. The video was great too - goes without saying!

[@tonyroslund]

Very inspiring. You both make it look so smooth.

[@seekingUltraNick]

Beast mode! Way to go, Clark!

[@DougRose_]

Great work🎉🎉

[@masonlevyy]

Hey Eric! Doing my first marathon on same day! Wishing you luck and thanks for being an inspiration ♥️

[@flobergruns]

Go get it!!

[@craig.the.runner]

Top work Clark and Eric 🎉🎉🎉 keep it hyped...

[@flobergruns]

⚡️⚡️⚡️ my man

[@CalebRoc_Runs]

Good luck!!!!!

[@cjs519]

Every video is motivation on this channel. I see my journey a few steps behind yours just as you see yours with Clark's. Set myself a scary marathon goal of 3:30 for this fall and I just ran a massive half PR last weekend of 1:36. The fitness is scary and exciting, and this series has been transformational for me in pushing myself even harder. Bring on the taper baby

[@flobergruns]

Let’s go!! Great work!

[@thadrunsfaster]

Clark is so smooth. That smile!

[@In2netDave]

Going from running an ultra to basically nothing after have 2 kids, I felt lost. Thank you for reigniting that passion and excitement with this video series. Appreciate you. ❤

[@prickofthegame003]

Completely clocked you riding by on your bike during this, I was too zoned out to shout Floberg in time tho lol

[@flobergruns]

Hey, glad you were focused!

[@fredslow]

Good luck in Chicago, hope to meet you there! Unfortunately I have been sick with covid for the past week. If I am fortunate enough to run, I will do so slowly. My sub 3 goal will have to wait...

[@flobergruns]

Dang. Sorry to hear that!! Hope you recover quickly!

[@allheartrc]

So glad to hear you will be at CIM. I will pace Evan and Cole for their sub3 marathon. See you in Sactown, Eric!

[@flobergruns]

Ahh!! Amazing! See you there!!

[@benjamin.kelley]

"Welcome back to Chicago 2:42" gets me every time now Eric 😂 My marathon training has gone south, and I'm honestly not sure what to expect this coming Saturday at the Akron Marathon. The new women's WR is insane. Eliud is the GOAT. Wish I could stay a few more days in Chicago for the shakeout and to cheer you and Jeremy on in the Marathon and help film, but I have a wedding to film in Cleveland on the 7th - you of all people understand the struggle!

[@flobergruns]

Hey man, just show up and run with grit. You’ve got this!

[@benjamin.kelley]

@@flobergruns That's some good KZbin Dad advice right there.

[@matthewvillegas6494]

Good luck! I hope to join in Chicago someday

[@flobergruns]

Thank you!!

[@wayway9876]

Yea, I feel like arrogance and envy might not be the kind of mindset that would last long in endurance running. My running buddies and I always have a good atmosphere and relationship.

[@runningwithaj]

I love your perspective on comparison. I completely agree that it’s beneficial to compare yourself to someone who is one step ahead. The hardest part is finding the right person!

[@flobergruns]

True. when it happens, it’s amazing

[@OscarMinyo]

love the friendly competitiveness

[@teetertotter5787]

Love the healthy competition pushing each other to higher levels. Clark looked so focussed and consistent.

[@flobergruns]

⚡️❤️‍🔥

[@Sneb25]

Ay got a tiny cameo in there! Good seeing y'all out there congrats Clark!

[@flobergruns]

Nice!! Hope you had a great race!!

[@Sneb25]

Hahaha I was volunteering this one but I’ll be racing with yall for the marathon!

[@yankaitan8648]

I love the quote about how comparison is NOT the thief of joy

[@JohnBirtchetSharpe]

Just love this. I can't believe I spent nearly half a century on this globe not realising how cool people who run are. nevermind running itself

[@stephenparkinson4419]

Production is 🔥

[@flobergruns]

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@jamesduysen9078]

Had some serious fomo watching everyone race last weekend. Just had to keep thinking it'll be me running the streets of Chicago in two short weeks!

[@flobergruns]

YUP!

[@Trihope]

His running looks so effortless.

[@thomasmccall3118]

Yo I was running this race too (way, way behind Clark haha) and remember seeing this dude in crazy bright vaporflys zoom past me on the way back - crushing it!!

[@flobergruns]

Can’t miss him 👀

[@antonk8125]

When you add music, ask yourself: Do we need music here, why are we having music here. Thx for the videos!

[@flobergruns]

Yes, yes we need music here. You’re welcome!!

[@Runofabitch]

I said the same thing! Too much going on but the video was awesome. For some reason once music starts and interrupts the talking I move on from the video.

[@antonk8125]

@@Runofabitch yea its just a bit overused. Same with the slow mo, imho. Otherwise its all good

[@quinceylane1885]

Babe wake up new Floberg vid just dropped

[@FredTrevinoColor]

Just started running. (3 months ago) I’m sure this question gets asked a lot. Best books, accounts, websites, apps etc for runners?!

[@johnrivers5934]

Everybody needs a Clark to run with

[@nielsota63]

Inspiring! When are you running Rotterdam?! Hi from NL :)

[@flobergruns]

Maybe someday!

[@A_SEGA_Dremcast]

Watched Berlin via VPN and Spanish broadcast live stream lol. Their announcers were great.

[@flobergruns]

Yeah, FloTrack had no commentary which was definitely a bit of a bummer.

[@A_SEGA_Dremcast]

@@flobergruns With that subscription fee?! 😮

[@lazyhusband]

Does Clark wear one size up with his runners?

[@chasewade6482]

What kind of water bottle is Clark using there? I can see it’s a soft flask but it has a wrist band.

Got up two hours earlier to catch the Japan Grand Prix as well as Berlin 😂

[@flobergruns]

Got to!!

[@HashBrownDoyler]

You can watch Berlin for free with a vpn

[@DMKARK]

When I pull off a 5:45 mile during training with repeats or something short and fast I feel like I'm sprinting. Clark's running 5:30s looking like he's jogging...

[@unvaccinatedmgtowfitness]

Bro, do you think Nick Bare ran CIM without PED's? I keep seeing allegations.

[@FUNSPONGERUNS]

*Alphaflys

[@maxafc4695]

running another marathon in December is an extremely short turn around after Chicago. You will not have time to have a sufficient break after Chicago and then a proper block for December. And then running one in December will mean you also cannot properly target a spring race if that was your plan. I would not recommend targeting a December marathon.

[@rajdeepsarkar4502]

one small suggestion you can remove the background musics

[@B-ex3ib]

way to obsest with yourself. chill. spend time with your family and enjoy family timem those kids wont be kids forever. and again, you may be inpeoving now. but boy you improved so much. it wont come again like that.
