To watch the full JOG ON Podcast episode with Richard and hear more about his incredible story: kzread.info/dash/bejne/m3pms7J9gt2yfpc.htmlsi=NYOYfKRkacGbaqZF Thank you 🧡

If I could choose between breaking a record now or running at 8 minutes per kilometer when I'm 82 years old, I would choose the latter.

Damn good point

My first run ever I was an overweight and inactive 23-year-old. I lost a 2-mile race to an 81-year-old. I was looking at his back the entire time, hit the gas at the last 400 and I could not catch the man, he walked away from me. Inspired me for the rest of my life. Now at 37, I'm running a 20min 5k at 95kg.

Now, that was inspiring! 🎉🎉 Golly, I was just pleased to run 3.19 km in my neighbourhood the other day. Took me 30 minutes! 😂😂 but, I didn't stop, and I haven't run/jogged for a while. I'm a frumpy 53-year-old mum with flab to shift!😂

My mum is the same age as Richard, she’s in good shape for her age walks everywhere, line-dancing, palates and a bit of badminton. It’s never dawned on me to see if she would like a crack at Parkrun, I’m definitely going to mention it to her.

Fantastic story and storytelling. Never to old to be running. Great video Harry ❤

I recently re-completed 2c5k after surgery. I'm 44. I can't run that fast. Richard is inspirational.

What a legend Richard is! Thank you for highlighting his awesome running. It's been a delight to run with him on several occasions over the last year. Also hooray for Judy's PB on the same day!

I like my steak with salt and pepper and my running videos with smile and tears…watching this after a steak dinner…well done to Richard…my man!!!!

That was me (Cheryl) who said “Love the videos”, and I loved this one too! Well done, Richard! Fantastic achievement! I was surprised to see you down in Dover, Harry, as I’m Hampshire based and have spotted you at races around here but that morning I was going to Belgium and just had to get my parkrun fix in first!

Harry; you mentioned that this video was coming and what an inspiration it is! I have on Sunday 21 Apr '24 a 5km "volkslauf" and after 4 months of training @ 80 to 90km a month, am hoping for a good time ,commensurate with my 73 years.

@@thisisjogon After a drive through freshly fallen snow to get there, clocked a respectable 27:06 for the 5K in Gießen. Armed with the advice to start slowly, where I was overtaken left right and centre, got my own back after km 2 passing one after another until I reached an older looking bloke in front. ca. 300m before the finish, managed to sprint past him and one other . Turned out that he was my only competitor in the M70 group so I won! Overall position 42. pleased with that . Thanks for the inspiration.

Fantastic what stars Richard and Edwin are!

Once again a very emotional video, The Jog on family proves us once again that no matter the age, there is always a goal we can attain with the help of friends, and find joy in running. Congratulations to Richard. Thanks again Harry.

Wow! Absolute legend and inspiration, well done Richard (and Edwin) 🎉 👏

What an inspiration Richard is! At 72 myself this is what I need to keep putting in the training as it can be a bit daunting watching all the other videos on KZread that show the whizzy youngsters. Great video, thanks!

He is indeed. Thank you for taking the time to watch Trevor

Harry, this was so fantastic. I started crying when you passed Richard’s family for the first time and I thought I was a goner until that kid fell (complete with sound effects) I laughed so hard! You have such an aptitude for great storytelling. What an achievement for Richard, I’m glad you captured it, and that he was able to share the moment with you and his family (and then with us!).

Well done Richard and Harry. I’m 70, runner for 4 years, and my best 5k is just sub 42 minutes. My goal is to break 40 minutes. I live in Houston so I’ll have to wait for next winter with a temperature under 45 degF. Any higher and I sweat too much and slow down. I love running and getting in the groove. Feels great when that happens.

Awesome video Harry. My wife and I love watching your videos and we always think it's a shame you don't post more regularly as you are putting out such great stories and messages (although we also appreciate the time it takes). What you must do for people's fitness and mental health, it would be cool if the NHS partnered with you and recommended your videos as a starting point for people's first steps towards being healthy, both physically and mentally. Again, great work mate.

Ha ha - I have just started running at 68 and did my first 5K since my twenties yesterday, taking 34 mins 30 seconds, which would apparently be slower than 98% of male runners, though slower than 77% of runners my age; well, we have to start somewhere! Good on Richard! - hope I can do it at 82 if I reach that age!

Richard and Judy are such lovely people and fantastic JogOnites. Cracking video. Well done. Iain Callaghan's alright too, I suppose

Awesome running and great video, it's a shame these new parkrun rules mean people like this can't strive for route records now
