We Won A Marathon!

Honestly I don't know why we put ourselves through this but we do (and secretly love it)
We decided that to end the 2nd year of living in Thailand we were going to try to win a marathon. Obviously we stood a reasonable chance as there were 4 of us running 10.5km each against those poor suckers running the full thing! But it was much closer than expected and in more ways than one!

Running my first marathon in five years on August 19th in Reykjavik. Beautiful course that I’d really recommend. Thanks for your extremely helpful videos, I have only discovered you guys about a week ago and have binged so much

Loved this video, so joyful and what a lovely team you had for it! Congrats to the marathon winner, hard to believe he roughly at the same speed as the 4 of you! Well done

Can't believe Mary's doing so well after having covid! That's great to see! I had to go look up the results of that marathon runner and he came in 31 secons after you guys! And you all sub-3-hour'd! It gets warm where I run but I can't imagine running a marathon in that heat. Place looks beautiful

Best play by play of a marathon I've have seen. The pro's who cover marathons should take notes.

Congrats on the win. As painful as I'm sure it was, it looked like loads of fun. I love racing with close friends, makes the experience so much better. Lasting memories.

Mary running on Covid recovery??? Absolute Legend. Love this relay concept.

Superb. Happy for you all. My first half marathon coming up in Belfast in a few months. Enjoying the videos

Nope not having it can't believe you been in Thailand that long. Where the hell has it gone. Well done team ❤

[LagunaPhuket]

Wonderful result! We hope you guys will come to join and visit us again next year! 🩷🩵

This was delightful to watch. Solid editing, just enough comments from everyone so that we felt part of the experience. Another quality effort in running and filming by This Messy Happy. Thanks!

This was awesome to watch. Been a follower for a while and funnily enough we were in Phuket late last year. We stayed just off Nai Yang Beach and i was doing my (very sweaty) run sessions down the road and all through Sirinat National Park - which you guys ran through!

[nextsteps]

Go team go.

Congratulations!

🙏🙏🙏

Ben, awesome video! I felt I was right there with you guys. I get so much inspiration from your videos. Just got home from my first ever 10K run (80 mins on the treadmill). I am 57 and new to running, so no where close to what you guys put out. The upside was that I stayed in zone 2 and my hear rate didn't spike. Heck, I like running and my speed will improve overtime.

Congrats and thank you for another awesome video! I wish they offered more relay races like this in the UK. I think it would be a good way to get more people involved in running and enjoying the social side of it! :)

You guys are the best ….well done the four of you. Here’s to more
