​@flobergruns The whole time when race started, went straight to the app and track you the whole race. Every mile pace was on point, planned perfectly and smooth. There were hills obviously but you didn't let it take you, 6:30 on them was amazing. Last 3-4, I bet it was tough, heartbreak hill and more. Still after all that, managed to get 2:38 and PR at Boston is something that would've been a dream. It was reality. I was crying when I saw the time, all that when I was dealing with COVID. If you can read this, CONGRATULATIONS Eric. Cheers to many more PRs and racing 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

You looked cool man💪💪💪 like from Sydney

I will never be a professional athlete that plays in a super bowl or game 7 of the NBA finals, but the atmosphere from marathoning is a sensation like no other and videos like this make me wanna push even harder to have the opportunity to race Boston with the best of the best

Thank you so much!!

Was watching you during the race on the app and wore out my voice going "COME ON GO GO!" when your little dot got withing 200 meters of the finish. Saw your results pop up and you were sub 400th and just lost my mind cheering again! Dude you are so motivating and inspirational. This may sound odd, but during this training block series it felt like you fell in love with the monotony of consistency and reaped the rewards. This internet stranger is so proud of your hard work.

You’re gonna make me cry. You hit the nail on the head. I grew to love the monotony, knowing it would pay off, and wow. It PAID off. Thank you so much for your support and kind words. Got me all emotional in a little Chicago restaurant rn.

Honestly could not be happier and prouder of someone who I have never met. Have enjoyed this entire series and your journey since I found your channel last year. Bang on!

Love you, homie. Thanks for all the hype this past weekend. You’re the man!!

You should know something, Eric. The marathon is a very selfish and lonely sport: you run alone, racing the clock/your set goal, hours of being inside your head with nothing to do but listen to your thoughts, battling yourself, the inner struggle of mind over matter. BUT you INSPIRE so many other people, the people around you, your followers who you’ve never met, you show people that it’s a fight and the struggle is not unique to them. Sometimes we don’t achieve a set goal and that could be considered a “failure,” but some, like yourself, show that it’s nothing more than a learning experience and something to build on for next time. Keep going man. And thank you for inspiring me to reach for higher goals.

A 2:38 at Boston this year is like a 2:35 on any other course. The fitness is obviously there. Excited to see more!

Dude!!! You killed it! I enjoy your vids and your humble nature. You deserve to be proud of this accomplishment!! What a support crew you had! Thanks for making fantastic content!

AWESOME job! Been so awesome watching this journey! Thanks for inspiring and can’t wait to see all that is in store for you!

Great video man. Recently stumbled upon your videos while getting back into running after injury. Stoked to follow along as you keep chipping time off your marathon best. Keep after it 🤘

This video gave me goosebumps 😢 experiencing that great day once again through your lens. It was a tough one! Thanks so much for inspiring and huge congrats to your accomplishment 🎉

extremely well done. was tracking you the whole time and was getting so excited for you. time goals don’t tell the whole story. you did good and should be extremely proud of yourself just as we all are of you. you inspire me and countless other people. i’ve simultaneously been working on my own marathon build and your boston 235 videos meant everything to me. i’m going to run the race next week. this race video gets me so excited. great job cyrus and matt fox for the video.

Incredible accomplishment!!! Thank you for taking us along on your journey and look forward to seeing what’s next!

YOU. ARE. THE. MAN. Congrats dude. have loved following this effort.

Congrats on the accomplishment. Really enjoyed watching the training leading up to Boston. Helped push me in my own training as I just completed my first Half Marathon this past Sunday in Jersey City. Cheers! Keep killing it.

Massive congratulations on a great run and great time! The video is inspiring, you should be proud of what you have achieved. 👍

This was so inspiring! I found your channel when I was training for my first half last year, and being a student here in Boston watching you run one of the biggest marathons in the world was such a motivating thing. Keep up all your hard work, bro!

Congratulaions for that time, man! Yor progress is just insane and such an inspiration!

Congratulations!🎉 Truly inspiring! Awesome video!

Floberg & Marquis, what a duo! Congrats, epic series & run in Boston.

This is the video I needed before my marathon this Saturday. I’m sitting here choked up and fired up at the same time. Thank you for the amazing, inspiring journey, Eric! Ready to see you do it again!

Best race blog I've seen this year. Looking forward to the recap and the deep dive. I can picture Floberg lining up at the Olympic trials in 4 years. Let's go!!

came back to watch this for a second time ahead of london this weekend - so inspiring and get chills everytime!! ⚡️

Excellent grit and dedication! That was definitely a faster performance on a flatter and cool course. You showed up and showed out in spite of the circumstances, great job! Plenty more greatness to come.

My first marathon is two weeks away, your videos are so inspirational and the entire training block has been great for my own. This one will be on repeat until race day! Congratulations!

Epic build man! Congrats on an amazing Boston finish! Thanks for the awesome coverage !!!!💯💚 💪🏅💪💚💯

Congrats!!! Great race and super inspiring to see your work.

Bro I’ve been following you for probably a year and a half now, trying to explore my own running journey in that time as well. I teared up multiple times in this, feeling the emotion from the crowd and seeing you react to it reminded me of everything that I love about running. I’m running my debut marathon in a month and will definitely be thinking of this video on the start line

Congrats!!! That was an amazing effort and an amazing video! Thank you for sharing with us...I run the race with you virtual just now! I really felt it and enjoying it!!!

man you are an inspiration. your energy and vibe are off the charts. great effort!

This is the first video of yours I've watched and the last few minutes made me tear up big time. Running my first marathon next week, this moved and motivated me so much 🙏

Thank you for beeing an inspiration. Fantastic race! April 28 I'll try my sub3 for boston next year and you are a part of it!

This video is so inspiring and has made me want to push myself further with running, you should be so proud

What a fantastic race Eric! You looked so strong. Great video 🥳 Excited to see what you do next. Lovely to meet you in Boston too ☺️

Fantastic time in those conditions and on that course Eric! Congrats on your new pb 👏. I can't wait to follow the next chapter of your journey 👍

Hell of a race brother! Loved following along with your journey leading up to this one. Hyped for what is to come in the next marathon training block!

Super proud man. I appreciate the videos and content, which really has helped me drive to be better and be about it.

This series has been phenomenal Eric and congratulations on an incredible time, I’m genuinely gutted it’s over but can’t wait to follow along for sub 2:30 👏🏻

Congrats on a perfectly executed race on a less than perfect day. It was warm out there and the hills are always waiting, but you nailed it. Enjoy some rest!

I could watch this over and over, it had me feeling all the emotions. Well done dude!

Amazing job out there! That heat was brutal to everyone. Still got a new PR. Watching this, I can't wait to go one day - hoping in Chicago I can get that PR AND a BQ. Loved seeing this!

Hey man great video and congrats. This felt super relatable as someone there too. I was aiming for a sub-2:40 time and the heat got to me too. I finished 2:48 with a fair amount of walking. But watching you go through the same with a positive attitude is super encouraging. Faster days ahead!

Let’s freaking go!!! What an effort you put in. Congrats

Damn, been watching every episode of this series while training for my own marathon pb, was able to smash a 3.14 2 weeks ago, your videos got me through man. Next year gonna aim for that sub3! Thanks for the inspiration, keep up the amazing work! Can't wait for the next series, but enjoy the post marathon-high and some well deserved time off!

Eric, I've been following your entire running journey from the start and wow - what a race. This is one you can be so, so damn proud of! Beyond excited for the next season, but for now, I hope you soak in all the good energy and realize what you've accomplished - because Eric, that is HUGE!

Congrats, man! Super inspiring stuff. Keep up the good work!

I love you men. Was tracking your whole race, my heart was racing! You made this so real, congrats on the channel. At the end of the day, racing is the most magical way of telling stories. Thank you for sharing yours and inspiring so many people.

As always, an incredible clip. Thank you for sharing this journey through your authentic story telling and production. Enjoy some rest!

Im so happy I followed along on this journey and found your page when I did. Wish I was able to be in Boston and HOLLER at you. Congrats on the journey and the process Floberg thats all that matters. 3 more mins on your goal doesn't mean shit VS the athlete this block formed you and is forming you into! all the love man

Congratulations!! That was epic racing and super consistent given the heat of the day. You should be so proud!

By far the best running content and series i've head the pleasure of following along with. Kudos to you and Cyrus on making passionate content great again, Floberg! Can't wait until the next one.

Awesome video of the race brought back so many memories. I ran my first ever Boston this week and really struggled from around 15 miles. But to see this video and to see that even someone running much faster than I did had issues with the heat makes me feel so much better. Well done on 2.38. Great time. I was nearly an hour behind. I had goals too and was aiming for a top 25 in my age category but end up at 197th! Next year….

Inspirational doesn't do enough justice to describe you man! You motivate me to grab my camera, get out there, and run. Rain, shine, cold, hot, windy, doesn't matter. Proud of you and stoked for what's to come. You're gonna crush Boston next year! Go One More baby!!

You are a king among men at this moment Eric. Hats off for an amazing effort and also the generosity you have in documenting it all for us to be able to enjoy. 👏👏👏

Hats off to you! - This is inspiring.

killer run in those conditions, your an inspiration to me that just returned to training last July.

Can‘t wait to stand at the start of a race in July for the first time. Your race gave me goosebumps. Thank you

Isn't it just incredible that people like Matty offer to help pace and also help create content for videos like this. I've done it a few times for friends at Melbourne Marathon ( here in Australia ) and although you were close this year ) it's an amazing feeling documenting these journeys so that people like yourself can have these moments for us and more importantly for you.. What I hear ( and I'll most likely never be able to run Boston ) is that it is a fairly brutal course and over the years how much the weather can change.. I had a 2hr 30 dream that was looking quite close to becoming reality for next weekend ( Ballarat Marathon ) but due to a bad case of the flu and really hitting me hard, I lost all the focus and determination to even try. I'll just go for the atmosphere and joy and chase that dream another day. Absolutely inspiring video Eric and I love seeing this sort of video coming together.. Thank you.. Best of luck for the future and running.. Look forward to following along..
