Can you imagine being a 1:10 half marathoner and someone passes you up vlogging?

@Rincerr 4 года назад

3:16 pace and you can still casually chat while running. That's like my flat out sprint 1K time, lol.

@julien7705 4 года назад

Rincerr yes me too 3:16 ! Insane pace when you talk 😂

@CrackaT33 4 года назад

Can we take a moment to appreciate some of the sacrifices Ben makes to give us some good running content?

@dho 4 года назад

lol literally the most effortless sub 70 half i've ever seen

@cicirunner 4 года назад

This has got to be some kind of world record. Fastest half marathon while vlogging. I don't know how you can talk and smile at that pace. You're a bad dude!

@JAHinHK 4 года назад

Don't be so humble, you pace your living room at a pretty fast clip in your vlogs.

@estout324 4 года назад

Getting dusted by Ben while he's talking to a camera all casual has to be the worst lol.

No way! I was literally right in front of you in the start blocks (definitely not at the end). I'm the tool with both hand in the air just before we go - still sporting my Belrin marathon 2018 wrist tag. haha. Gonna get this shared and tagged as you run with/pass so many of our club runners. Great time too 😁

Your time was good considering you dropped your camera and lost 2 mins so you should have enough in your locker for the 2nd half in Berlin 👍 to get the time you need.. so all good. Just keep to the training plan and you will do the biz. Good luck!
