I am a long-time runner with experience running track events to ultra distance trail runs. Road running has been my go to in recent times, running three sub-3 hour marathons in my 50s. I'm also a coach, having started almost 40 years ago, and through my love of running I want to help others achieve their running dreams.
I have been documenting my running journey on KZread since 2019. There are hundreds of videos on the Run With Woody channel covering a wide range of topics from reviews to running tips, training series to race day vlogs - really anything to do with running in general.
Join me on my running journey as I head towards my 60s!

Hi! Clifton 9 or bondi 8? Thaks
Love a bargain mate. Still using novablast 3, speed 2, triumph 21 which i stocked up on when the new models were released. Wish I had another pair of RC elite 2. Truely amazing racer.
Similar shoes to what I have, and agree those RC2s were fantastic.👍
So good! I’ve just got a place at Melbourne Marathon 2024. I’m traveling over from Adelaide! Any advice you could give me for the race? Are there hills to worry about? Any tricky parts of the course? Much appreciated! ♥️
Hey mate, Melbourne is a great course, but a couple of things to take note, coming back towards the MCG can get quite hectic when the marathoners meet up with the half marathoners, there's a few little rollers through the Tan around 5-7k from the finish, but the rest is plane sailing. Enjoy. 👍
@@runwithwoody thank you! Really helpful to note and great to get it from someone first hand. Really do appreciate it! I’ve now subscribed so I won’t miss any more gems of yours! 💎♥️
I saw me! Thx Woody❤
Great run, mate. 👍
Thanks for the footage mate
You crushed it, mate. Congrats. 👍
👍
Very kind mate. Thank you so much. 👍
Well done to ALL sub 3hr legends 💪👏🫶 Loved how you compiled the finishers in reverse order, with the fastest runners at the end of the video, Neil 👍
Thanks Bartek. Hope you are doing well.👍
what an achievement! would love to hit that time someday 🤞
Huge number to get under 3 hours. Keep working hard mate and you never know what will happen. 👍
Well done on your run and great to chat with you afterwards Neil
Cheers mate, and thanks for coming to say hi. 👍
Great job Woody!
Thanks you mate. 👍
Great job!
Cheers. 👍
Fantastic Effort !
Thanks a lot. 👍
Great effort Neil. Very inspiring. As a newer runner about to turn 50 It's great to see what maybe possible. I had the goal of 2:13 for the half and managed 2:13:04 which I was supper happy with. Congratulations and thanks for the videos!
Congrats mate, that's a great result. Thanks for your support and good luck with your running. 👍
Run happy. You looked great.
😊 Thank you. 👍
Well done Woody, top effort fella
Cheers mate. 👍

Well done Woody!
Thanks mate. 👍
Cracking effort Neil 🎉 almost got it, thank you for your 100% 😃😃💪💪
So close, but more than happy. Thank you. 👍
Thanks Woody for taking us along with you, really inspiring.
Cool vid mate! Rain at the start then headwind coming back! 😤
Thanks mate. Another cracking run from you - congrats. 👍
Thanks for the video, glad the rain stopped before the start but my feet were already wet, I wish Gold Coast marathon could find a covering for the finish as once it rains it becomes muddy. I ran a personal best but need to start closer to the front or you spend so much time going around people.
Congrats on the PB mate. We got lucky with the weather, but agree that meeting area outside the recovery area got pretty wet. Definitely get closer to the start next time mate. See you at the next event. 👍
Great work woody 🤙🏽
Thanks 👍
Well done mate. It’s often those runs where you have to dig really deep that are the most satisfying.
Thank you. It was a good morning. 👍
It looks a lot of fun, I'll sign up next year.
Definitely one to put in the diary. 👍
Good job!
Cheers mate. 👍
Lucky that the rain stopped 5 minutes before the race started. I really enjoyed the course! Great video Woody!
Thanks mate, hope your run went well. I think we got lucky with the weather. 👍
Great.video. thank you for taking us along with you.
Cheers mate, thanks for following the series. 👍
Killed it. Congratulations
Thanks mate. 👍
Class act woody, ka pai mate.
Cheers mate. 👍
Can't ask for more than 100%, fantastic run still mate. Keep your head & looking forward to your next series 🏃♂️💪🙌
Thanks for following the series, really appreciate it. 👍
Congratulations Woody, excellent time 🎉🥇
Thank you so much 😀👍
All things considered, you'd have to be happy with that result ... well done! 👍
Very happy, thank you. 👍
Well done mate the conditions weren’t the best but we did it. I appreciate your running content keep it up. I was looking for you race day was going to say hi 👋 next time mate 😊
Definitely catch up next time. I was pressed for time so I didn't stick around. Hope your run went well. 👍
Lovely work Woody, I shouted out to you just after you had made the 11km turn & you said something back. My race went terribly, mentioned it before but after the first few km's the back just went. Have had a very sore back the last 3 weeks (I'm only 25) & got really sick a week before, at km 6/7 it was gone & I was certain I was pulling over. I have no idea how but I kept the legs turning & somehow made it home in 1:48 which considering the circumstances, I'm massively happy I finished & got to get my medal. Really proud of myself & looking forward to chasing my sub 1:30 goal in Melbourne. I too didn't stick around with how I felt, was hoping to meet you but one day mate. Have loved this series & really hope you do another one soon. Should be so proud that you got so close in what were absolutely terrible conditions pre & during the race. Looking forward to seeing what you do next 🔥
Thanks for your support mate, and definitely catch you next time. I'm doing the half in Melbourne as well, so maybe there. Cracking run from you considering what you had to endure. Rest up and get well, and have another crack at that time. 👍
@@runwithwoody Looking forward to Melbourne & I shall hopefully see you down there
Excellent run. Very good time. Congratulations mate.
Thanks a lot. 👍
Nice one mate.. 🙌💪
Cheers mate. Have to get you back out there. 👍
Wow, Amazing effort 🎉
Thanks a lot 😊👍
On ya woody......great to see you enjoyed yourself. Gold Coast course and atmosphere was amazing
Thanks mate. It's one of the best events on the Australian running calendar, and looks set to get even bigger. 👍
Well done. Way to finish strong
Thank you. Very happy to get it done. 👍
Loved the 💩 costume hahaha. That weather was crazy at the start!! Then blue skies from around half way?! Great run champion 🎉
Cheers mate. Yeah, I did a double take when I saw the costume. I really thought we were going to get drenched during the run, but somehow we got very lucky. Hope you run went well. 👍
I thoroughly enjoyed this video, having been there the very same weekend. I look forward to returning this year and staying a little longer. Well done mate!
Thanks mate. Hope you enjoy this year's run. Fingers crossed it will be a little cooler for you. 👍
Have a good one legend.
Cheers mate. It was a good day, although a little wet. 👍
Congratulations Neil, huge shift 💪 I'm attempting this next year 😅
It's a great event with stunning scenery. You won't be disappointed. 👍
They take a while to break in. Depends how light you are as well. They're not a running shoe though.
Totally agree. 👍
Have a good run, remember don't go out to quickly, all the best mate💪💪💪
Thanks for the tip, mate. 👍
Great run out there today mate! Bit wet at the start but pretty good conditions overall
Cheers mate. I think we got lucky with the weather, bit breezy in places but overall pretty good. 👍
GO well Neil... and you did indeed. Great run this morning 💪💪💪👏👏👏🫶 Loved this vlog series, thank you 🙏
Thanks mate, it got tough towards the end, but hung in there. 👍
Good luck with the race!
Thank you. 👍
