My First 'Elite' Marathon Doesn't Go To Plan- Copenhagen Race Vlog 2024 

Ellie's running has really improved. She gets past Ben so easily... She even has to stop and wait for him to catch her... Amazing!

Ellie is so sweet ❤ good job getting to all your spectator spots Ellie!!

I watched the live stream of the race, saw you just behind lady number 1, what a run mate, top 30 finish!

10:00 THE WOMEN CROSSING THE ROAD GOT ME ANGRY XD bravo ben thank you ellie , amazing vlog 🔥

Well done Ellie, great job. Oh and you too Ben 🤣🫡

I want to share how thrilled I was to spot you running the Copenhagen Marathon last Sunday. Seeing you out there on the course not just once, but multiple times, was was genuinely motivating. It's clear you've put a lot of training and dedication into your marathon preparation. I really hope this isn't the last time we'll see you at the Copenhagen Marathon. It would be fantastic to have you back next year, adding that extra spark to the race atmosphere. Your presence definitely makes the event even more exciting for fans and fellow runners alike.

Cute sister is a brilliant addition to these things. More Ellie. All seriousness, upbeat mood at the end despite it not going exactly as planned is inspiring and impressive. Thanks for these.

Amazing work and effort! It was so sweet to see the support from your sister. Congratulations!

Managed to catch a glimpse of you during it mate , my first marathon 3:28 super happy with it 💪🏼

I have a 2.5 and 1 yr old. I really hope they have a relationship like you and Ellie when they are older. Well done on the marathon Ben.

Fantastic, loved the whole run and video. Massive respect for sis cam. That's not easy either and really enjoyed that. I suspect she had the harder job 😊

Finally! Nothing better than sitting down with my dinner to realise there's a new Benisrunning vid - smashed it. Ellie did a great job and made me emotional seeing how proud of you she is. Looking forward to the next vid!!

Ellie did such a fantastic job - yours was okayish too. Just kidding, as usual you absolutely smashed it! Fantastic video, really enjoyed seeing what you guys were up to after the race. Hopefully Ellie will be back!

Sister Cam Ellie really did a great job and nice run Ben!

90k subs now! Superb Ben!

Ben you did so well! be proud! Thanks for coming to Copenhagen to run again. I was cheering for you at the sharp turn, just after the halfway mark. Funny to see you later in Darcy´s café! My hands were numb from clapping and cheering you guys on..I hope to join the fun and run along maybe next year, but let´s see... best Jakob

Ellie was a superstar with that camera! Exellent job mate, another marathon ticked off :)

Awesome run! And great job by Ellie. Btw at 9:44 the camera just caught a glimpse of Team Tvilling. That's also a dedicated bunch of people.

Very inspiring! Thanks for sharing the process.

That was a great result for a comeback, even more so the fact that you held it together when detached from the pack and got the best out of yourself on the day. Great job by Ellie on the filming too - you should reciprocate on her first marathon!

been waiting a week and a half for this vid 😀☺

Awesome race Ben!! I love watching your videos. They are so inspiring!!! Thank you.

Great job Ben. Proud of you. Been excited to see the race video. Even avoided the results so I could see it first here. I’ve got my first marathon this weekend!!

Great one Ben!!

2.27 is a time I can only dream of. Congratulations, I’m sure you will hit your target time in a marathon to me. Bravo🎉

Congratulations Ben! Great time, love watching your videos

Congratulations Ben. You did extremely well. And Ellie, you are a fabulous blogger and added a great deal to this vid. Well done to you too!

Great race Ben. Well done!

Bloody marvellous Ben, so hard when you seemed to be by yourself for a lot of it too. Great atmosphere, saw you on the live stream too 🎉🎉

Good run Ben👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 and kudos to Ellie for getting those nice run videos 👍🏻

Top effort mate. Very very impressive!

Well done bud,great video,smashing job from little sis big time. Can't wait for the next one dude,let's go 👊💪

Another solid effort Ben. Consistency is key. The times will take care of themselves.

Hoped to see you there, big fan of your channel. In the end didn't manage to, but ran my first Marathon :) The people at the course were really putting in an effort to cheer everyone along. Was kind a lucky that I finished before the rain started. You also made to the official race stream, when the female winner overtakes towards the end of the race, still looking strong!

Outstanding athelete....well done bro! Only recently discovered your channel and have learnt alot with running. Asics meta speed sky paris looking 🔥

Congrats, mate!

Well done Ben. Fantastic race. Brilliant comeback run and a great base post injury to kick on. Be proud be very proud 👏🏻👏🏻🎉🍾

Incredible running out there - very inspirational, especially after recovering from a stress fracture!!!

fantastic attitude in every single moment during the last months and the race. Fantastic race Ben, well done boy!

When done on the vlogging Ellie 😊 (and of course great running Ben!)

Absolutely brilliant man, beautiful running.

Much love from Kenya Ben. What an outstanding effort. Come back soon❤

Amazing race, Ben! From fracture to this awesome finish was a great journey to watch. So cool to see you running in the Elite group =D

Awesome video. Elle smashed it

Love your relationship with Ellie - truly sibling goals! Congrats on a wonderful time Ben, another clutch performance coming off a long injury. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you! Keep inspiring others mate 👏🏽👏🏽

Huge Congratulations Ben, you're an inspiration to all. Thank you so much for taking the time to put this together while in the midst of trying to prepare and run a PB.- Respect to you.

Congratulations Ben you did brilliantly. Especially coming back from a nasty injury. Loved watching your sister Ellie too. She was so proud of you and was so heartwarming to see 🥺🥰 and she did great following you around the course recording you. Double kudos to you both 💪❤

Nice comeback. Good job on camera, Ellie!

Amazing effort, Ben! Huge running inspiration, keep it up!

Great job ben! That is still incredible.

Good effort Ben! It was nice meeting you at Reffen, I appreciated how down to earth you were, it's not always the case with RU-vidrs. Ellie's great too ofc :)

Congrats on your comeback dude! Many more (races and PBs) to come 14:14 🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷

3:22 pr. kilometer is insane! Well done. Hope to see you back i CPH next year.

Well done Ben. You are legend and a really nice guy. Keep on pressing on

I remember watching your UEA videos years ago and now you got nearly 100k subs. Well done mate

I watched you on the live stream. Well done.

What an experience Ben. I know how you finish when you get a respectable time yet didn't quite get your A-goal. Fantastic job filming and your sister deserves a gold medal. Been watching you for several years now and I love seeing your progression and abilities continue to improve. Thanks for inspiring me to further my own running as best as I can. Can't wait to see the race breakdown.

Great job! Coming off an injury that was great. I didn’t hit my sub 30 5k pb until my 4th race this year. 3 fails before I got it. Love the Ellie cam. Great job as well!

Well done Ellie for your top vlogging skills!

it's interesting that several runners I follow on YT all set marathon goals this year and all seemed to fall short of the goal, it doesn't diminish their efforts because we know the journey is more important than the destination..looking forward to new journey's and goals🦾

Fair play Ben that's a cracking time!! I had a stress fracture in my foot after a mountain ultra race they are no run so glad you have fully recovered from that!

The Sister cam was awesome! Love the support she gives you!

I watched the race live on RU-vid, and saw you in the elite field before the race. You also got a lot of on-screen time after it started, because you were sticking close to the battle between the top ladies contenders (while you were following the pacer). I also saw you running to the finish line. The camera crew were focusing on the ladies but there you were on the frame, finishing. I laughed at the bit where you said the 4 and 5 hour finishers would have been rained on, because I'm a 3h55 runner and felt for my fellow 4 hour finishers. Your elite experience looked amazing! Something as simple as the space to warm up before a marathon is such a big deal! It's not possible for us regular runners because we try to get good spots in the crowds. So I've learned to train with very little to no warming up. I've said enough! Waiting for your race recap!

Caught in the emotions of it. Well run!

nice video and im pretty amazed at how your sister was able to travel around the course by public transport and seeing you at so many places, pretty cool to have those skills in a city they dont live in. usually i get so confused by public transport when im abroad.

Nice video! Enjoyed it. Proud of your sister ❤️. Greetings from the Netherlands! 🇳🇱🇳🇱🇳🇱

Congratulation!

Well done Ben ! Amazing job and wow 😀

well done Ben. Proud of everything you have accomplished.

Well done Ben🥳. Such a great video! I’m not sure I could even sprint for 20 seconds at your marathon pace🤣, but so inspirational. Great vlogging by Ellie too!

Great work, super impressive. Your post race feast was a joy to watch!

Great effort. You're an inspiration to follow. Looking forward to many great runs in the future!

Congratulations, Ben. Hopefully, you will come to the Maldives for a race, Thanks to Ellie for the videos

You are an inspiration, keep the hard work. Your sister is lovely and very supportive.

I was running last weekend for 3k at Ben's pace (around 3:45). Can't imagine running that for 42k. Well done mate, and next time a PB.

very inspiring ,Ben:))

Absolutely smashed it Ben! I don’t live far from you over in Danbury, always hoping to see the flash when I’m out training 🏃💨

Oh my! Fantastic time!

I like the back story to your marathon training and racing goodvluck ben smash it 💪

Amazing running Ben, well done. You must be delighted to have come back from injury so well 👍

Well done Ben and well done Ellie, great team !

You ran past me about 4k into my run and looked so strong! I'm sorry you didn't hit your goal, but still a very very impressive performance and speeds my mind can't grasp. I actually saw you at the expo too, but got way too shy to come and say hi 😆Maybe next time!

Congratulations Ben

Great video, Ben. Really good editing. Good work by your sis too. 👊🏼

Well done Ben !
