Thanks heaps!

[@joshkwan]

Fantastic effort! That was super fun to watch. Maybe you can make a video on some beginner tips and tricks for people who are new to running ;)

[@felixoates]

Thanks my friend! It's a great suggestion... maybe our next meet up will be on foot rather than on wheels - if so we should get some cameras involved!

[@davidrogers7787]

Great video mate! I'm going for a sub-3:00 this year, can't wait. What chaos actually happened at 36km?? 😬

[@felixoates]

Thanks heaps for watching David! The chaos was happening mostly in my head and my quads although the finish line was absolutely hectic also 🤣

[@Ottotrip]

what a race man!! I will run Melbourne this October. Wish I could run as fast as you did 😅

[@felixoates]

Cheers for watching mate!! Well done for signing up to Melbourne that's awesome, you'll crush it - maybe see you there 💪

[@pokeloowis]

Thanks mate!

[@harshneware4230]

Is there any better running shoe than 1080v12 if i get it in 50% off in sale here in my country india??

[@runmyworld]

Loved this. You ran past my old house 👏

[@felixoates]

Thanks so much for watching!! I appreciate it 🙏

[@runmyworld]

@@felixoates I’m going to watch more to get your watch hours up for when you hit 1k subs

[@tobiasluke7]

😍

[@felixoates]

Only a lil bonus of the entire Queensland extravaganza!

[@maxprien1073]

Animal!

[@felixoates]

Cheers for watching Maxy!

[@pf4186]

You ran in Nimbus 25s. Bad choice in my opinion for that distance at that speed. I ran my first marathon in these this year and knew they were a bad choice afterwords. Felt like I'd wasted a lot of energy due to them being very cushioned. That was a 4 hour effort; this effect, surely was magnified for you at that pace.

[@felixoates]

Hey mate, I was given these shoes by the agency that I worked with to shoot these shoes in the global campaign for the Nimbus so they mean a lot to me! I agree that carbon plated shoes are faster. What would you recommend for runners that don't have the budget for a carbon plated shoe? Cheers

[@runmyworld]

@@felixoatesI’d recommend the endorphin speed 3 for non carbon shoe

[@chakalaka3960]

I ran my 10k pb in my 25s. A month later I tried in my Adios Pro 3s and couldn't match my time. Carbon isn't everything

[@felixoates]

@@chakalaka3960 thanks for the insight Chakalaka 🤙

[@RioLeong]

Asics gel nimbus 25💪

[@pf4186]

Great for long slow runs. Very bad choice for sub 3.

[@Archeris]

@@pf4186 why. It protects the legs when running for 3 hours+ lol. Elites are about 4% faster on carbon shoes. Don't fall for all the marketing bullshit xD

[@Strizzle81]

Great race! You'd knock 2-3min off your time if you ran in carbon plated shoes!

[@felixoates]

Cheers mate! Probably yes! Hopefully I'll be running in some metaspeeds next time 👌
