Run With Woody

Run With Woody

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!

    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.

    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. 👍

    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.

    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 🔥
