Why I Haven’t Made A Video

[@NERunner]

I totally understand, Chris, I have also been so busy with work that it's a few months since my last video got edited and uploaded. I've got a few in the can, I'll get to them when I get the chance. Look after yourself :)

Thank you for the update, Chris! Very nice to hear you are enjoying your new job!

[@ThatRunningGuy]

I hope all is good with you

[@AndrewSmith-gu3yf]

All the best Chris hope to see you soon..

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thanks Andrew

Enjoy a good break from KZbin. Take your time with your recovery. Persistent injuries suggest that you may have been pushing too hard. I ran a10k race around the Essex countryside in the same murderous heat and was happy with one hour 😊. You always set yourself such high goals. Hope to see you back here, happy and healthy, sooner rather than later. No pressure. Meanwhile take care of yourself, your family and that worthwhile job. All the best 👍

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Cheers 👊 Finally managed to sort out my ongoing Achilles issues by only wearing Hoka’s. Just need to wrap myself up bubble wrap before a races🤣

[@markg99]

Enjoy the break, Chris. Fingers crossed for a long period without unfortunate injuries 🤞👍🏻

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thanks Mark 👊

[@Chris-me3bk]

Hi Chris, enjoy a well deserved break 👍 I still go back through your old videos for tips for sessions etc. All the best !

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Appreciate it

[@mijzzzz]

Always enjoyed your vlogs. Best of luck.

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thank you, appreciate it

[@hanleyfender]

Good to meet you on the LA start line. My brother ran well but I struggled a little. Hamstring hurt the next day. So I do feel your pain.

[@ThatRunningGuy]

👊 The weather on that morning 🥵…and about an hour later was much much cooler. Lots of Dehydrated runners. On to the next race. Maybe see you at LA parkrun. Hope your hamstring is ok now

[@philipklink5406]

Hi Chris, Good thinking mate. You're right to take a break. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Glad everything is working out at the school. You are the right man for that job. See you in the next one...Cheers! Phil

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Cheers Phil. I hope all is well with you. Thanks for your support

[@philipklink5406]

Yes, doing well thanks Chris.@@ThatRunningGuy

[@chris_jonzey]

No down sides to listening to your body and taking it easy. Rest up! I’d also love to get some tips and tricks from you as I start my own channel on KZbin. I love what you do! Keep it going, man!

[@ThatRunningGuy]

👊 Happy to help. Follow me on Instagram and DM me with any questions

[@matthewhorrocks6735]

Hey Chris - sorry to hear about the injuries, hope you can get back to enjoying running sooner rather than later. I'm taking my first tentative steps back into that world after more than a year of achilles tendon issues 😊 All the best 👍

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thanks Matthew👊 Best of luck with your return. Regarding your Achilles, I’ve found that since only wearing Hoka they have worked wonders with my Achilles

[@RunningGeekGirl]

Totally understand! Take a break- KZbin isn’t going anywhere! 🤓

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thanks Heather. Keep on inspiring

[@eriktred]

As a fellow middle aged runner, I can relate to this. Stuff can happen to our bodies we can’t fully control.

[@ThatRunningGuy]

👊 Getting older is fun

[@RobertNaik]

I don’t feel middle aged but I am. I can relate as well. Good luck!

[@andrewforsyth4799]

Good luck with whatever you do mty,,thanks

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thank you

[@no_excuses]

Chris thanks for your update, I'm up for a run if you fancy a chat anytime👍

[@ThatRunningGuy]

I’ll be in contact once I’m running again

[@seamuslynch3483]

Hope you rediscover the balance you are looking for and get back to running for enjoyment without the pressure of times and distance. Life’s too short and good luck with the injuries 👍🏻

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thank you for your comment and I know it’s something I need to work on

[@i.p2088]

Great video, I took my Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro for a long run yesterday. This and Adidas Pro 3 make me fly. I am 60 and slow runner but your review of the Mizuno Wave Rebellion Pro made me want to get them.. 👍🏻

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Glad you like them. Thanks for letting me know

[@joesmith7497]

As someone who has started to experience age related running injuries (back!) I've been frustrated but found strength work and yoga to be crucial. Think you need to be easier on yourself. And don't mean to be rude, but I think your 10k, as least partly, went down the pan because you went out way too fast. 1st mile was something like 2secs per mile slower than your 5k pace, and on a very hot day. I think social media runners make us think results come easy, but it's all smoke and mirrors. Nowt comes quick and easy in running

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Strength work is something i definitely need to do as my back has been on going over the past 3 yrs. Even cutting a hedge means a sore back the next day. Regarding the race, completely agree about the first mile and the weather conditions, not ideal but adjusted the next few miles to compensate. If it wasn’t for my back going numb I would of finished, my 1st ever DNF. In hindsight I shouldn’t of run. I can’t speak for others but I feel that I’ve always been honest on my channel and told it the way it is. Running is definitely not easy!

[@joesmith7497]

@@ThatRunningGuy not suggesting you've ever been untrustworthy on yourube or strava, but there's plenty who are

[@Stevenc1984]

Hope you're able to get back to running consistently without the injuries 👍🏻

[@ThatRunningGuy]

Thanks Steven

[@papadillobillo]

Sound like you need a course of deep tissue sports massage.

[@ThatRunningGuy]

I’ll give my back another couple of days. If it’s still an issue, I’ll look into getting one 👍

[@papadillobillo]

All pain, lots of gain 😂. The chap I’ve used has dug me out of some deep holes in the past.
