[@markmcveigh7619]

Doing Yorkshire this weekend. Thank for uploading- big help.

[@MattClarry]

Ah awesome, glad you found the video a help! I'll be there again this year, but I'm just going to be running the 10 mile this time!

[@conradburdekin722]

Really enjoyed this thank you. You looked strong coming back down the second out and pack - passed a fair few people. I did York in 2023 to help a friend complete her first ever marathon. I’m am returning this year to give it a good go and try for a pb

[@MattClarry]

Awesome, glad you've enjoyed watching, how it brought back happy memories!! Ay, I did feel good this time, though it always feels tough after that out and back when you head down those lonely country lanes! Ah, cool, hope the conditions are accommodating for the pb attempt!

[@MrCol104]

First of all can I say a massive thank you for taking the time to record this. What a brilliant video. Absolutely loved it. Huge congratulations Matt on an awesome performance. Such a brilliant effort. Didn’t spot myself on the video but did see a few familiar faces, including my twin brother. 🙂 Thanks again and best of luck at your next event.

[@MattClarry]

Thank you, glad you enjoyed it! Shame you didn't manage to spot yourself, but happy you did see your brother ! Cheers again !

Bloody Brilliant! 👍🦾🏃💙🤍 Built into it, great pacing and even split it (what happened @11 miles? Gave me a fright there!) Intelligently run as well.....staying off the cambers....running the apex when needed and seeking the bit of shade when available...👍🦾MASSIVE well done Matt great running!

[@MattClarry]

Cheers Stuart! Mile 11, hmm, that was probably the second quick toilet stop ! Yeah, I like running on the crown of the road as much as possible makes it feel a lot more comfortable for the longer races. And thank you again!

[@conradburdekin722]

It skipped a minute right near the end??

[@MattClarry]

Ah, I think that would've been for a quick battery change @conradburdekin722 !

[@Jeff-yt3qp]

Great Run Matt. Well done another medal for your collection 🥇

[@MattClarry]

Cheers Jeff! I actually came home with two medals. One for competing the Yorkshire marathon, and the other for completing the Yorkshire double (Leeds and York)

[@conradburdekin722]

Really shows the benefits of good pacing. You were overtaking folk for fun near the end!!!

[@MattClarry]

Ha ha, yeah, tried to not go off too quickly at the start and keep it fairly consistent

[@TheCarnivoreRunner.]

Well done Matt, great time. The crowds were great to.

[@MattClarry]

Cheers! Yeah, they crowds are always good in York!

[@runningsuperska]

Well done mate. Bit of a sparse one for support!

[@MattClarry]

Cheers ! Yeah, I guess thats the problem with races that go that far out of the city!

[@lornamc5928]

@mattclarry it was a great video. I also ran this marathon…it was my first one….5hrs 22 but what an achievement for me. I love your videos. Really motivating. It was an awesome day!

[@MrCol104]

Congratulations. Welcome to the club. 🙌🏼

[@MattClarry]

Ah awesome, well done ! Yeah, it was great day ! Glad you enjoy watching the videos and are finding them useful !

[@lornamc5928]

​@@MrCol104 aw thanks!!! I'm inspired!

[@psychedoutlorna]

Thanks for this! I've signed up for the 2024 race and although I know York well, it's interesting to see the whole route including the countryside. Well done!

[@MattClarry]

Cheers. Glad you have found it useful. Yeah, it is a good race, very well supported, I think you'll enjoy it!

[@ricd2821]

Great time Matt and excellent video , saw myself this time running the other way 😅

[@MattClarry]

Cheers! And glad you managed to spot yourself !

[@biobio]

Great video and super informative how you have synced the footage with elevation profile - really helpful for prospective runners. Congrats on a very fast time!

[@MattClarry]

Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it and have found it useful!

[@angeloambrosino4297]

Outstanding effort mate , well done 👍. We’re you happy with your time Matt ? Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

[@MattClarry]

Cheers ! Yeah, I was really happy with that time, wasn't expecting to be able to keep going to well for so long at the end !

[@manavsharma869]

I’m in this one hahahah you were right behind me at the start of the race (I’m in the black vest w the hydration vest on) - well done!! :)

[@MattClarry]

Ah cool, hope you had a great marathon, how did you get on? And thank you!

[@manavsharma869]

@@MattClarry ah thank you!! Was a mixed experience - first marathon so was mega exciting, but cramped up around 16km and they didn’t let up no matter what I tried so was a painful race. That being said, I’m so proud of the fact that I got through it! Ran 3:37 :)

[@MattClarry]

Ah, I know that feeling, I had calf and quad cramps for final third of the Leeds Marathon. A 3:37 is a great time, not least if you were cramping from 16k in !

[@russellscott8280]

Great video Matt, congratulations on the time. Saw myself on the out and back section here and also on your Robin Hood half video, so thanks for the footage! Good luck on your next runs.

[@MattClarry]

Cheers Russell. Ah brilliant, glad you managed to spot yourself here and in the Robin Hood vid, too. Hope you have some good future runs and races!

[@didierbecker766]

[@MattClarry]

Thank you Didier!!

[@nuplissken1600]

[@MattClarry]

Thank you, I tried to keep it as even as I could
