Just ran my first 10k under 40 minutes threw up but definitely worth it. Thanks for all the tips!!

I almost slept the complete day after my first halfmarathon on 3rd of August 2019 :) Thanks for all the great advice... it was perfect.

Rest days are for watching motivational running vids

[tomanderson]

I was cycling half the length of the south downs way and I saw you! Had a double take as I wasn't sure!

[spencerbriggs]

Nothing like a nice easy 40km recovery run ... gulp ... aha

[anielkhaderoe]

i love this man, hahaha a recovery like a beast. He is beyond human endurance and on a level most of us can't reach. But he will guide you if you want.

Ben thankyou for all the great content.This is the only channel of its kind i subscribe to and thanks to it i am more motivated to run than ever and in better shape than ever before.I'll be doing my 2nd half marathon in 2 weeks and look forward to (hopefully) a good pb.Love from Scotland!

AWESOME video yet again Ben!! Rest days are strengthening workouts for me, and depending how I'm feeling a nice jog or cycle. Active recovery is great for me (not looking at the watch).

...defo a breath of fresh air in terms of content and presentation, been following for a while and the tube becomes more and more relevant to my marathon training... coincidence that I'm on a recovery week too 👍 yay! Um...my weeks are 30 miles not 100 though lol

[gielovering]

Ben, you enspire me so much to keep running and putting the best effort in to my runs as I can. So thank you for that💪

[mickwaters]

Looked awesome there Ben..even in the rain. Ive been finding new routes as im trying to up my mileage.. got to keep stimulated.
Im enjoying recovery runs as I was so used to flying round the same couple of routes.. until I found yr channel a few months ago.. really enjoying running now. Thanks and keep up the great content

[stephencox]

Great videos Ben, much appreciated. Have taken up running again. Thanks.

The first time I see you pop out on my YouTube account running the London Half marathon with a camera in your hand and runs fast, I said I wooo " he still can run fast with the camera including talking?" that why I subscribed, liked and bell notification. I always believe you, Ben. You are a real deal! 👍

[explorethemagic]

Love your videos Ben, thank you for always sharing. Still fairly new to running, got my first half marathon coming up. Your determination and honesty is great to see in all your videos. Amazing work 👍🏻💪🏼😊

[heavyt]

Great vid, Ben, looks like a really nice run. I tend to just go for a walk on rest days and take it easy, no running or gym. PS: loved the start, you’ve really nailed the intro 😂.

[iftomatosareafruitwhyisntk]

Love it! Great tips! I'm lucky enough that opposite my work is the South Downs so that's where I do 90% of my runs! Stunning views!

[craighammond]

Just done my first half marathon on the Surrey Downs, we ran by St Marthas church, the views were amazing! Another great vid thanks for all the wonderful uploads!

[davidatchison]

Greetings from Central Coast California, Great channel Ben! Love the content and your cheery demeanor is very uplifting. My rest days include stretching and watching your videos of you not resting. Peg 36 Trail recently purchased and an excellent shoe. Keep up the good work!

[harveyemm]

Great video Ben as always.
I have started foam rolling every day and including a mobility session in the evenings(leg swings etc). I find this has helped enormously and I am not getting so many niggles.
I like to keep moving on rest days by going for walks and I find I feel a lot better.--it might be psychological but it seems to help me run better. Good luck with your training.

Rest day for me sitting watching box sets and having a few ciders 👍
