Good race, well done. Chip time is the correct time.

[@FordyRuns]

Thanks I will tell Toby 😂

Great video of a great morning. My first run up North. Most of my running is around Southampton. Did most of it within easy listening distance of a bloke in a Fordy T-shirt who was big hellowing half the people we passed going in the opposite direction and doing a running commentary. Lost him around Trafalgar Square. Or he lost me? Whatever, a big thanks to him and running companion. Thanks again! Happy running!

[@FordyRuns]

Well Done!

[@marklanghorn9220]

Well done lads - I saw you all when I was running around. Managed to get a PB for 10k - 49.51 🏃‍♂️

[@FordyRuns]

Well done mate

[@Aaton]

Appreciated them having bottles of water on the course instead of paper cups. Well done Fordy, good running

[@FordyRuns]

Yeah was good i grabbed one on the way through

[@Rubix78]

Well done, I couldn’t get to London so had to do it Virtually

[@janettrigwell8851]

Going to add this race to my bucket list.

[@FordyRuns]

100% need to do it!

[@gary_runs]

Well done! Great video! I wanted a sub 45 mins, I got it for the 10k distance but race finished up at 10.2km and I ended up slightly over! Still a PB so happy days! Keep up the great work Chris 🙌🏼

[@FordyRuns]

Well done! and thanks mate

[@chriscummings9387]

Congrats on the PB! I feel I owe you a thank you, as based on your reviews I scrapped my Zoom fly 4s (they were rock hard!) and got myself the Saucony Speed 2s - I’ve just done the Gateshead Half Marathon on Sunday in these, in 1:41 which is a 14 minute PB and actually went sub 1:40 for the distance according to strava! Superb advice!

[@FordyRuns]

Wow congrats!

[@pennyrusbridge5725]

Fantastic video Chris. Well done guys brilliant times. Marathon training is paying off. Not long till Edinburgh

[@FordyRuns]

Thanks penny

[@ChloeHamard]

Congrats on your race, great footage! It was my very first race in London and it didn't disappoint

[@FordyRuns]

Thank you! Congrats to you

[@CoolInOlympia]

Great time! Congratulations!!!!

[@FordyRuns]

Thank you I appreciate it

[@twold4this]

Cracking vlog! Exciting filming, editing and music. Well done all you boys! Looked like a well organised event - running along closed London streets is a ready made anecdote. Terrific times. You all sound delighted. Great psychological boost - you are right in the zone for Edinburgh. 10ks are hard - at least for this old bloke! I had one a couple of weeks ago, it went well, but by 8k I'm certainly looking forward to stopping.

[@FordyRuns]

Thank you!!

[@mav3ric100]

Gratz!! You're right, not exactly being picked up off the floor! haha

[@FordyRuns]

Thank you!

[@kingy1204]

What’s a good source for races? I want to sign up for some but can’t find a decent single source

[@johnmiller5630]

Good work fellas. How were the hills🤔

[@FordyRuns]

I wont mention them on the long run show this week 😬

[@HereWeAreRunning]

Great time mate, congrats on the PB 👏👏👏 Watch out Edinburgh 👀👍😀

[@FordyRuns]

Thanks 👍

[@madridiguy1713]

Excellent bro 👍🏼👌🏼

[@FordyRuns]

Thanks dude

[@Daniel-hx4sy]

Great race mate well done, spotted myself at 4.40!

[@FordyRuns]

Awesome!

[@whitters6983]

Great run guys well done! Course was long I had 6.26 miles on my strava. Great event though

[@FordyRuns]

Yeah mate we had the same but would have had to be bang on measured with the elites taking part

[@kierenkd]

Course is measured with a wheel on the smoothest line. It might be long on GPS due to weaving for position in the first mile and poor signal between the buildings around the strand + maybe going wide. :-)

[@Ligerpride]

Well done. Good time that.

[@FordyRuns]

Thank you!

[@leedockerty4531]

Well done lads!great video fordy,i think i read somewhere that the guy who won it works for up and running store?

[@FordyRuns]

yes mate he does ... was he in Brooks? 😂

[@leedockerty4531]

@@FordyRuns i think so,great achievement

[@bh4560]

Great effort lads! Must go for a sub 45 myself now. ☺️🙌

[@FordyRuns]

Thanks mate good luck

[@madridiguy1713]

What was your speed pace and your shoes?

[@FordyRuns]

Check it out on strava bro

[@danielletope1347]

I’m completely new to races or even running for that matter. I’d prefer to go with strava over the chip time too 😂 But what I don’t get being a novice is how the Apps all give different times & distance. Adidas app 6.48 miles and starva 6.7 miles 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ Great time & video btw

[@FordyRuns]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@twesterman]

I'm new to running and I'm looking into the 2024 Vitality 10k in September, but I'm a bit scared I'll be embarrassed. At the moment I can run a 5k in 40 minutes, will it be too embarrassing if I ran a 10k in 1 hour 30 mins? Don't want to look like an idiot.

[@ThomasLaang]

It's like watching some Guy Richie movie this... :-)

[@FordyRuns]

🤣

[@Lamby1010]

It’s a great event and a manageable distance, run with the family then stuffed our faces in McDonald’s in Leicester sq after 🏃🏻🍔💪🏻👍

[@FordyRuns]

Yeah 100%
