My 23 year old daughter is running Boston for the first time - so I will be on the sidelines cheering for her and hopefully seeing you both on the course! Enjoy the states! See you in Boston!!!

[@joshuaroque6514]

One of my favorite parts of running marathons is all the fun experiences before the actual run. We train so hard for so many long blocks and those few days before is always a good way to decompress and enjoy what each city/trip has to offer

[@russamehta]

I’m so excited for you both. Thanks for taking us along for the ride. Enjoy

[@simonerussell1154]

Welcome to my country! I was just flying through Los Angeles on my way home from my second race - the Ku-Ikahi Half Marathon in Honolulu and we saw the Hollywood sign just before landing! I'm running my 3rd race in June - the Glacier Half Marathon in Montana and SO EXCITED! Good luck in Boston! I lived there from 2009 to 2017.

[@DirkJV]

I absolutely love your channel. As a fairly new runner preparing for my second marathon, the Durban International Marathon here in South Africa. Gotten so many helpful tips and tricks from you guys. Thank you so much. Good luck for Boston!

[@gerrybesworth7762]

This is great news about sharing your journey, I look forward to the daily updates as I do all your videos. I am also glad I won't be sitting beside you on the plane! Recover strong!

[@totalgoals11]

Come on guys, lets get them to 100k, share with friends, comment, like and subscribe - lets make it happen 🎉❤🎉❤

[@ThisMessyHappy]

Thanks so much 😊

[@adventuredogs8773]

So exciting guys! Thanks for taking us along day by day 😊

[@mad8298]

Welcome to the land of Fahrenheit and miles!!! 😁 You are in for a treat when you get to Boston and will be running with some of my favs! Enjoy!

[@rachelmayhew2457]

I live in Michigan and spent my morning trying to convince my 4 kids that a high of 55f/13c is not shorts and T-shirt weather. Every time you say what the temperature is in Thailand my response is always "Oh, no thank you!" I can happily ski or run in -20c, but have zero heat tolerance.😂

[@paulj6637]

Mary! That is going to be a spicey old pace there! Wow 👌

[@andrewhammonds4907]

I did the same last year and this is bringing back the memories! I drove up the West Coast LA to San Fran with my family and flew across for Boston. Fitted in runs when I could including a nice 10km run to pick up the hire car 😄 Good luck!!

[@ThisMessyHappy]

Awesome!! That’s the way to do it. Travel and run 😂😊

[@normanjohnstone9231]

I’m heading over from Scotland on Friday for my first Boston marathon…hopefully see you guys somewhere around…enjoy your trip !!!🇺🇸🏃🏻‍♂️🏃‍♀️

[@50Something]

Hope your illness clears up 100% this week Ben!

[@rorydelapaz4083]

Good luck next week! The temps forecasted for Monday will be a challenge for most runners except for those like you used to training in the heat! Looking forward to seeing you both at the Mile 18 water and cheer station. It will be loud and full of energy!

[@shinynewstewardofthebutter4148]

Thanks for taking us along to Boston on your trip 😎

[@rubarb1275]

Firstly, love the jackets! Secondly, 100% great idea on choosing business class, as you don't need the flight to run your holiday and chance of the best run on race day. Looking forward to the next video! 👍

[@distandring]

Hey from Northern CA :) Good luck and enjoy the ride !

[@ThisMessyHappy]

Thanks ☺️ and hi from SoCal

[@chloebenn5708]

Enjoy the California vibes & pancakes! Perfect carb loading 😋

[@HS-fm9kv]

Haha- packing! Try Australian late summer (1 March) to 300km north of Artic Circle to go ski-mountaineering!

[@missingmimic]

Welcome to Boston you two, its warmed up considerably 😂🎉

[@JLoweRuns]

Welcome to the US and cooler weather you two. I’ll be following your journey (as always).

[@richardbrown1573]

Love the channel. All the best for Boston + hope to see you guys over there! Daily vids….so good!

[@WorldT]

enjoy your time at the marathon, I can not wait for your race blog

[@ArcaneSpells]

Excited for the burst of daily videos!

[@ynot6627]

Thanks for bringing us along.. excited to see all the meet up runs with kofuzi and Believe in the run folks! The Boston jacket looks sick! And hope Ben get well soon! And can’t wait to see another PR from both of you! Keep up the good work and good luck with the 100k 🎉

[@luyi3086]

Bravi…. Well done enjoy this experience 🎉

[@kateanagnostos4418]

I love watching all your videos. I just completed my first 10k, inspired by you both! I loved it and can’t wait to sign up for more!’ Hopefully I’ll see you running by during the marathon! Pink kilt for Mary I assume? We need a sneak peak of your outfits!

[@tammymavery]

I’m doing the BAA 5K. It’s a fun race, last year the field was so crowded, I think they reduced it this year.

[@irawhitlock1084]

Excited for you guys! 46 degrees?! AND it’s humid I assume 🥵. That is absolutely BRUTAL!

[@bcockton]

15° … I’d be a t-shirt if not a tank top; of course this being said from Toronto… so anything above 0° is shorts weather to me.

[@mad_incognito]

Sorry that I cannot meet you guys today in Santa Monica - the traffic to LA is insane today (more insane than 'normal')

[@aylaamon3267]

I love how cold you all got in LA 🤣 (in the midwest, we think 40*F (4*C) is shorts weather!). Best of luck at Boston!!!

[@IrishDublinDave]

Good luck with it all!

[@TheFODRunner]

Daily!! Lets go guys!

[@sigmatau8231]

i am super excited!!!

[@definit1on119]

Let’s go 100k!!!

[@user-lt7vw7bh3c]

great video as usual guys , good choice to see "the boss" you'll fly round Boston after that 👍🏃‍➡️🏃‍➡️

[@SBoots29]

An exciting journey. I was going to say the start but this started long ago. Good luck at Boston.

[@PeterdeRooij]

Enjoy LA and the rest of the trip! And maybe see you next Monday - though you're faster than I am (I'm Blue wave, corral 1)

[@stephensimmons8657]

Look forward to the rest of the week , best of luck 👍

[@ankitaggarwal028]

Good luck guys

[@andreas2687]

Love to see your vlog following to, in, during Boston. Have fun and good luck. Are you guys also coming to Berlin this year?

[@runningwithpete3065]

Thanks for the great videos and look forward to the lead up to Boston. We are HUGE Boston Marathon fans! Come out to Phoenix, AZ sometime... great weather in winter and spring ;)

[@christinaclementson]

Just helping me to get even more excited 🥳 Wish you better Ben 🤞

[@tammymavery]

Weather looks good on patriots day!

[@jotaylor1684]

So excited for you both. But i thought you looked rough on last video. I thought it was the training. ...big hugs and wishes it will all come right. You have so much training in your body, a rest will be OK. But you know that!

[@paulj6637]

Yaaaaasss

[@itsianwood]

Brill!!!

[@Bwebber99]

Nice that you are now in the US I hope Bens cold goes away soon.

[@Thegreat772]

Omg I've heard if this but I've been unsubscribed from you so I've just re subbed.

[@Shevock]

At first i thought you said you were going to see the Pops. Lol! Not the Boss.

[@stevenlowry1833]

When are you guys going to run Chicago - this year or next year?

[@IamArloFischer]

Treating yourself to Business Class is essential. Use credit card points instead of cash though! Next time.

[@joannahuetteman9191]

Strange breed are runners,always base a holiday around a run or visa versa😊

[@ep2653]

Enjoy your trip 👍🏼👍🏼 That being said, be careful out there. L A. can be a not so friendly place.
