Props to the stunt coordinator-those action scenes were AMAZING

[TommyHackett]

I just checked my Garmin and watching this lowered my resting heart rate. Thank you Serious Runner.

Imagine the day the serious runner appears in a new tracksmith singlet. Then we shall know he has truly made it

[RunningOtaku]

Wow, a documentary of the Serious Runner in the wild! Beautiful scenery, monastic-like dedication to chopping wood and cross training. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[Spring]

Love the inclusion of the narrator and stunt coordinator.

[chadallen]

I loved the unchopped stump being placed back on the pile. Brilliant!!!! 👏 👏 👏 😊😂

Can’t believe you risked a back injury swinging an axe and lifting heavy buckets of water like that so close to race day.
In any case is this art? I think that was art

[Stentordoc]

Every elite runner needs to know how to wield an axe. I’m impressed 👍🏼

[bigdocus]

Looks like a nice place to have a holiday.

In The "Northeast Kingdom" one definitely calls The Fall season "Autumn" 🍁...next up I expect some Ivy League campus tour running and more scholarly ponderings (but not on Columbia's "campus"as we need the full and then maybe Tracksmith will give you a 3-button Merino wool Fells Henley in something like the pomegranate or oatmeal color way....or that elite BQ singlet at least 😂). 

FYI I grew up chopping wood....we can work on your form/technique!! The water spill was 💯🤣🙌

[benjaminkuch]

Will there be a video "Serious runner gets an existential crisis after Kipchoge's record is broken"?

[christiankolstad]

Really well done! I am already looking forward to the sequel, Thanksgiving/Christmas training🎄

[paxtonebright]

The more I watch the more I want this exact outfit. It just makes you look faster. The singlet alone shaves 10 seconds off every mile I bet.

[Kelly_Ben]

"Because they still haven't sponsored him yet. " 😂😂 That's freaking hysterical. I remember sending an email to an equipment company for Sage after they lost everything. I'm going to send an email to Tracksmith just for S & Gs! And way to sacrifice your shoes for the water scene! 😂
Edit: Done, and you'd be proud of my "Serious" wording. 😆

Let’s not forget he also has his Boston Marathon jacket

[Martha-fluterunner]

Dedication to the Tracksmith aesthetic is over the top. They need to heed the craftsmanship of this video for their own marketing. Or short of that, finally sponsor you😂

[laurainthehaute]

Stephanie delivered the reverent tones! Chop wood has never sounded so good.

[DP-shnk]

Your best ever! Was so subtly hilarious, and yet beautiful, chefs kiss !!! Bravo

[mrthnymous]

This is the only kind of documentary work I need in my life. I assume Ken Burns saw this and we will see the Serious Runner PBS special soon. Maybe then Tracksmith will FINALLY wake up and sponsor this man.

this is a nice one. fall is beatiful as a serious runner.
