I Ran My First Marathon!

Tyler Speers going crazy when he doesnt have a handicap like dino suit or cros

Or falphaflys

[@aydenshonk]

Congrats on your first marathon Tyler! I did my first one last month and going into it my goal was sub 3:15. I ended up getting 2:59:08 which I am beyond happy with

[@TylerSpeers]

Sub 3 is amazing!!!

[@sugarcooki03]

Wow at what point did you decide to pick up the pace? 15 minutes is such a large gap if you aren’t planning on it.

[@npSharkie]

Yes anything sub 3 is definitely amazing for your first race-- and in general, shows you are truly an avid elite runner. Great job!

[@npSharkie]

3:16 ain't so bad yourself Tyler-- great job!!@@TylerSpeers

[@aydenshonk]

@@sugarcooki03 Honestly I passed the 3 hour pace group at like mile 2 and I made it my goal to not let them pass me for the rest of the race. I went in knowing it would hurt a lot so I was ready when it got painful at mile 18 but I just pushed through all the way until the finish line.

[@TylerSpeers]

First real marathon in the books! Will not be doing another one for a long, long time🥵

"Will not be doing another one for a long, long time" said every marathon addict ever

[@DeDoentje]

Yes you will.

[@edwardtang3585]

First marathon at 3:16 is insane

[@tomascanevaro4292]

Congrats! I started running a year ago and on august did my first Half Marathon race at a huge pb of 1:38:47 (i did run the distance and greater than it before, but never raced). I look forward to my marathon debut next year where i'm aiming for sub-3:30, but seeing someone like you who's much faster than me aiming for sub-3:30 definately intimidates me.

[@michaeljonas3165]

Congrats. My fist marathon was Boston and I was a bandit. They have the hills from 17 to 20, so you definitely feel the wall then. Back then (2001) they just took the ropes away about 3 minutes before the gun and I squeezed through to get as close to the start as possible. The first 3 to 4 miles was mostly people walking as it was so packed. I was dodging mailboxes, starting and stopping to get a pace. I finished in 3:12 for my first. Pain is not linear, is what I kept telling myself when things started to hurt. A couple of years later, with a better starting system (shoots) I ran 3:11. I never broke that 3 hour mark I wanted, and have had some much, much slower ones, so appreciate the good ones. I think, if not for the first 3 or so miles, I could have come closer to breaking 3 hours on my first marathon as I was in the best shape ever.

[@breed121693]

Shout out to myself making a guest appearance crossing the bridge at mile 4. Way to battle, tough conditions for the day

[@irun26mi]

Excellent run. Great way to start your marathon career. It was smart for you to go out conservatively, with such a long race, it is better to pick up the pace at the last 10k. I've hit the wall before, so I know how excruciating it can be, but you finished with a great time. Congrats!

[@marshallritter1816]

Congrats on your debut marathon!! The first marathon is always the most painful. It gets better as you do more and I speak from experience. Recently ran my first international marathon in Oslo in September and my god that course was unforgiving. 1200ft of climbing with big climbs at mile 11 and 23 with 10 percent gradient near the top. Ran 2:49:19 that day.

[@Huch_FN]

These videos are what’s keeping me on yt

[@Klian159]

LET"S FREAKIN GOOO TYLERR!!!!!! that's crazy time!!!! You. got. way. more in you man next up sub 3 hour. marathon!!!! And don't forget to get some gels in!

[@camguy99]

Awesome Tyler!! Congrats!! Way to keep pushing!!

[@samanderson1142]

way to go brother! epic storytelling. I'm also doing my first Marathon soon, shooting for 3:15. Gonna have the same wing-it energy.

[@Tumblin1]

I ran my first at the Columbus marathon about a month ago. Goal was sub 2:50, hit 2:43:23! Great job with exceeding your goal!

[@asherc7090]

Yes finally a marathon in a bag 3:16 try to break the 3:00 barrier

[@TylerSpeers]

I think it's doable, I just have severe PTSD from this marathon lol

[@asherc7090]

Yeah I think you should start doing more 10 mile longs and runs for training and I think you can do it

[@asherc7090]

And wait till mile 16 or 17 to speed up you just overestimated how you were at mile 10

[@jaysonkitchin9884]

My grandpa ran 50 marathons and wants to do another one he’s 70

[@bestevil.]

[@quixotix9540]

​@bestevil. bro can NOT do math 😭

[@evanchen6104]

Mad respect

[@aslowburnpdx1986]

That's awesome! You'll be sub 3 with fueling if you can figure out how with type 1. Good job!

[@williamchristman8550]

Not a very good performance but I did a bounce back Marathon this past weekend and ran a 3:17🤙🤙

[@KyleWheeler-tw8hr]

bro chose fight when he was clearly about to flight

[@Stefikp1122]

I found your story taking us through your marathon experience entertaining and funny! 😅 great achievement on your first marathon!

[@16nowhereman]

3:16 congratulations! That is awesome!

[@Harrison391]

tyler is insane his fist marathon is crazy

[@EzraOConnor-ui4cm]

Does the Dino marathon not count?

[@EzraOConnor-ui4cm]

Almost a year later no one answered 😞

[@TylerSpeers]

Hahahaha not a true all out marathon in my eyes

[@EzraOConnor-ui4cm]

@ yeah that’s fair

[@jeffw654]

I thought it was going to be a 2:16. Oh well, you still have some opportunities to get an Olympic trials qualifier where you only need a sub-2:18, if you want to get it done.

[@asherc7090]

Same because in the thumbnail it looked like the blurred text said 2:16:12 not 3:16:12

[@TobiasLarsen93]

Loved it! really good storytelling

[@DeDoentje]

Well, last Sunday I ran my third marathon in Enschede and crushed my PR with 23:15 minutes to 3:17:52 minutes. So you beat me with 1.40 minutes. At the start I knew I could beat easily the 3:30 hours, but a marathon is a marathon and you don’t know what could happen. Well it went very well, as you can see at the time. Impressive that you ran this without any gels and on your first marathon. Sub 3 hours should be an option for you.

[@demonetizer1535]

4:00 does anybody know what that app is on his phone?

[@TylerSpeers]

it's the tracking app for the MCM marathon!

[@demonetizer1535]

@@TylerSpeers but do you know what app?

[@tnan123]

Thats amazing. Congrats on the race!

[@Pmeddy]

Bro replaced the 3 with a 2 at the start 😂

[@pnw_dev7934]

...whats with the 02:16:12 on the clock at the start of the video? Come on.

[@martindla7]

Well done, based on your mile time and general ability i will bet my last dollar that you can run much faster than 3:16 if you put your mind to it in the next marathon you can probably break 3 easily

[@DTBOSS19]

DAMN BRO congrats. you beat my time by a minute !

[@runmattrun-go9qp]

Wow, epic time. And you did it without the help of your calves & pancreas. All credit goes to the rest of you that got you across the line.

[@MarkPaule-qu5yb]

You tricked me with the intro, with the timer being 2:16:12 lol

[@fkgalarza5363]

How did I not know you were a T1D before? 💉 😳 I am too! I just started running in the past month or so with a goal to run a marathon in the next 1-2 years. Would you mind making a video about how you manage your glucose and fuel throughout long runs? Thanks for the videos!

[@scott_schroeder]

You killed it man, congrats!!

Not fuelling properly is insane in general, but even more insane when you’re diabetic. Be prepared next time.

Tyler is the GOAT keep up the good work bro

[@Kittycoolman]

1:59 Marathon starts

[@albertmorales3233]

For someone who’s done five, the first one is ALWAYS the hardest! If you would’ve pushed yourself slightly harder in the beginning, you would’ve been close to a sub-3… guarantee the next one will be a sub-3 💯

[@tomjoslin435]

He would have cramped even more if he'd done that

[@pachhhanel]

In my opinion, if you hydrate/electrolite and take gels, you might break the 3 hours pretty easily...

[@fireyjelloslaya]

This was amazing!

[@ricardverges630]

amazing video!!!

[@aprilg3299]

Awesome ..did you not take glucose and electrolytes?

[@lukephillips5336]

Don’t forget running a marathon in a Dino suit as well.

[@AEJprinting]

Does anyone notice the 2:16 in the corner at the start.

[@JohnCena-zl6tv]

ok daddy

[@ricardverges630]

didnt you do the marathon with the dinsaur suit??? nice!

Im confused.. I just saw the other video where you ran a marathon ina dino suit from like 8 months ago... was this not your first marathon then?

[@soccergalsara]

70 mile weeks for 320? I was on 3 hour pace after 6 weeks training at 50 miles, having jumped straight to the distance as hm was my distance before (prior experience was 3-440 mile weeks, but just came back froma 10 week injury of doing nothing , no x-training, and 2 years or so at 40-45 , but with lack of structure and alot of just jogging due to a re-occurring g injury.) 320 should be achievable with 50 maximum I would have thought, unless you're a complete newbiee, but if you've been around for a year or so in the running game
