Sub-3 PB at Noosa Marathon | Humbled in the process!

[@alexmanteit5116]

Sub 3 with GoPro in hand. Unreal 🙌🏻

[@felixoates]

Honour running with you brother!!

[@jamestremblett1875]

Thanks for this video man. Watching this brought me right back to when I ran my own sub-3. It's nice to reminisce.

[@felixoates]

Mate it's absolutely a privilege thank you so much for watching and sharing - really appreciate it dude!

[@williamhadinata3373]

Congrats!!! The last few kms of this vid and you saying come on come on, and seeing the finish line is so inspiring. What a feeling. Such an amazing run. Thanks for the video

[@felixoates]

Thanks dude I really appreciate your thoughts! It’s was fricking hard man but all of these races are and we’ve just got to rally in those moments hey! Thanks for watching man 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@framedman]

Mate, fully in awe of this. Especially getting yourself through the end bit. Brought the energy, kept it positive and a fantastic time. I'm a 3:23 marathoner but I'd like to think it's possible to go sub 3 one day. It's harder psychologically more than anything else, I think.

[@felixoates]

Hey dude! Thank you so much it really means a lot to hear that. I have had to learn the hard way that the result doesn't actually matter and if I never go sub 2:50 that's all good - the important part is I applied myself and enjoyed the experience! 3:23 is a bloody fantastic marathon time though and of course sub 3 is possible man! If it's something you truly want to crack and you think you'll enjoy and grow whilst pursuing it why the hell not 💪

[@Henryway-zs3dt]

[@DOCUMEANT_MEDIA]

Solid effort running that good swinging a camera the whole way. Awesome work 👏 👏👏

[@felixoates]

Thanks very much I appreciate it!

[@joshkwan]

Epic effort mate, the vibes and tunes are banging. I’d personally love to cop a pair of ASICS metaspeed paris (sky) 😜

[@felixoates]

Thanks so much brother I appreciate it!! Mate I would go exactly the same shoes hahaha

[@mimma2006]

well done mate! amazing effort. Have any of your previous PB efforts been a negative split?

[@felixoates]

Thanks so much!! Appreciate you watching 😁 R.E the negative split - short answer: no haha! Not through choice lol I actually asked a bit of a running guru of mine about neg splits and I think it might be less common at the top level than what I previously thought - like did you race every km if you were able to do a negative split? That’s not to say you should go out too hot like me 😂 for the GC I will try to even up the splits with the aim of going faster but will still run ambitiously haha

[@mimma2006]

Haha I know exactly… the struggle is real. I’ve never run a negative split marathon before. Only managed it for shorter distances.

[@mimma2006]

@@felixoates I ran my first sub-3 (2:59:04) at Gold coast on the weekend. It was such an amazing event.

[@OwenSTri]

Great video as always mate, felt like i was on the journey with ya on this one, watching this on a boat in vietnam itching to get back into it!🤣 - Owen

[@felixoates]

Owen - aka The Ventusravens - it's always a great pleasure to hear from you sir, especially given your current arrangement! Make sure you get off that boat safely and can't wait to catch up when you are back brother!

[@gregh8720]

Epic, well done

[@felixoates]

Thanks so much for watching Greg! Really appreciate it!

[@jasonreid347]

magic event, I only did the half m but massive respect to the 4 lappers

[@felixoates]

Thanks for watching dude and congrats on your race! Half marathon is an epic achievement whether it’s your first or tenth!

[@jasonreid347]

Sunshine Coast here we come 😂

[@felixoates]

@@jasonreid347is there a Sunny coast Mara or are you on about GC mate?!?

[@bretthallam9567]

Mate well done! But 175 heart rate is very high! Is that based off the watch HR or off chest strap?

[@felixoates]

Hey dude thanks for confirming that 😂 it’s based on the watch but maybe it’s time to invest in a chest strap hey - any recommendations?

[@x97jamesx1]

Top 30 wowzers

[@felixoates]

Thanks brother!!

[@jasonh6910]

Most people just wearing that Af3 😂

[@felixoates]

They are very popular hey! Can't comment on their performance but I wonder if another viewer has any thoughts. What do you run in Jason?
