Man, Kipchoge is such a great genuine person. if he represents humanity, the world would be a far better place.

in my opinion, your channel has become one of the most versatile and entertaining youtube channels for the running community in the last year. in the end, it's the content and events that we runners want to be a part of, even from afar. like your kenya trip. huge compliments to you ben! also makes one rethink the reservations many have about sponsorship - it allows the viewer to experience things alongside you that we might not otherwise be able to see! thank you!

Hi bernd, really appreciate your kind words. I’m here to share the experience with you all so nice to hear it comes across that way as always have reservations about the influx of branded opportunities that come my way. Really appreciate the feedback and support

That Kipchoge moment gave me goosebumps!! The manner he reciprocated speaks for his humility!! G.O.A.T

The “maur-ten” gave me second hand embarrassment 🤣

Funning thing about people wanting to Start Eating clean is.. You can't do that over night. You build up to it gradually. That's why alot of people fail when they something and they're like "ooooh... I wanna Do That!" Eating clean and Losing Weight is a dicipline NOT some quick fix that everyone is 'entilted' to.

Ben should have said you came 71st at a major marathon. Finishing in the top 100 is just as impressive as the time you ran.

First time I've said anything on your page, Ben, but after watching that I simply had to. Of all the places to smash your PB - Boston!? Breathing the same air as Kipchoge (plus Kenyan hills and ugali) clearly paid off. Inspirational stuff! Well done. 👍🏿

Congratulations Ben!!! Brilliant effort, great video and really inspiring to us "everyday runners"! I'm part way through my 6 star journey so can't wait until the day I do Boston too! Thank you for your channel and keep up the good work!

Incredible running! Had you on the tracker whilst I was watching the elites, awesome to see you run it so well, especially those hills didn't stop you at all!

Congratulations Ben, watching this got me really excited to run Boston next year!! Would love to know more about how you cleaned up your diet as I think that's definitely an area I struggle with. Fist bump with Kipchoge - nailed it!! What an awesome memory!!

Awsome vid Ben loved it, and amazing time. Your content has definitely inspired over the last 6 months to step my training up back to a consistent level after a few years of just parkrun and Sunday runs

Ben, First time watching your channel. Initially came here for Marathon news But you gave us a closer look on your journey leading up to the marathon I watched it all and caught that you are wearing a Kenyan arm band... So cute, so Kenyan. I'm big fan of Eluid Kipchoge I attended university near Kapsabet where he trains. My background is also UK but I'm Kenyan! Anyway great job on 2:24 Congratulations 🎉 With ❤ from Mt Kenya🇬🇧🇰🇪

Inspiring! Love the insight into your Boston experience - it has made me want to do it so much more. Fingers crossed for 2024. Congrats on the PB - so well deserved 👊🏼

Well done on your PB. You're a great runner but also an amazing content creator, and genuinely a nice guy. Thank you also for showing up among the spectators at the London Marathon, seeing you around that last mile motivated me to push a little more.

Brilliant, Ben! Congratulations on your PB, what a run! Your content is awesome, keep it up.

Epic video Ben! Really loved the longer video, and you looked so SMOOTH in those clips of you racing! Between spectating London at the weekend and then watching this I'm feeling a good dose of inspiration for my training at the moment, can't wait to smash a session tomorrow.

Nice to meet you in person at the DGR group run!! Keep up the great work. It is very nice to follow you along your journey. Big congrats on the PB 🎉!!! Cheers

I moved my PB on from 3:07 Vienna to 2:54 in Brighton the other day, definitely assisted by some of your tips. With that time you would have won Brighton this year (but it is hilly). (Glad to see you're not eating bagels before racing these days!).

Wow. You nailed it well done Ben. Bummer I didn't see you . I also had a blast. What a fun few days and race support and fans were insane. Keep it up Ben

Well done Ben. I was there as well and the race surpassed my expectations. What a phenomenal race, the organisation, the historic course the scream tunnel, Newton Hills and the iconic “right on Hereford, left on Boylston”, and then going past the bombing memorial metres from the finish line. I was actually quite emotional when I finished it. A fantastic race, and congrats on your huge PB. And also congrats on building a great KZread channel here. Good luck.

This was a great video Ben and I smiled all the way through at your enjoyment of it. The support seems to have been top class! I think I want that shouting man to follow me around when I run for motivation!
