I’m not going to the 2024 Olympics. Was I ever within a shot? Am I giving up on the Olympic dream? I’m gonna answer it all, talk about what’s next after falling short of running the Olympic qualifying time, and also talk about what our goals are outside of running fast this year! Bit of an update video, with exciting things on the horizon!

In 4 years Phily will be, I believe, in her early 30's, that's a perfect age for a marathon. Couple that with several more years of focused marathon training and it's possible. I can't say it's guaranteed because anything can happen in a marathon. But I, for one, will be cheering for her from the other side of the pond.

@nannysecco1 6 месяцев назад

I'm a competitive swimmer, now I compete on Masters (or Age Group).. I went to world champs (masters) last year, ranked third place and got comments like "are you going to the olympics?" so yeah.. I think swimming is another sport focused on the olympics 😅 Btw you inspired me to run a marathon and now I'm training for it! Besos from Mexico City!

A lot of young kids would love to have a dream of making the Olympics, the selection panel now concentrating on only the athletes who could possibly medal will be a massive negative to future dreams. Britain loves to see our athletes compete, and some could run way better than expected. Taking part at the Olympics encourages the future generation, I feel the Olympic panel has got this very wrong.

@stephena1639 7 месяцев назад

@@debrascott8775 yes that is what the Olympics are all about, we shouldn't have it all about the potential medal winners taking part, it's the underdogs succeeding and taking part which inspires the future athletes, the Olympics is not all about winning.

@TheAkenno 7 месяцев назад

The selection committee can say it's about top 8 finishers but it's clearly just to save money. A smaller team actually gives you less chances at the top 8 result their aiming for. If we followed that process here in the US 3 years ago Molly Seidel never would've been selected because they would've thought she had no chance to medal.

Re washing up cooking and washing. ( I’m leaving the running at the Olympics to you) I am retired but my wife isn’t - so… small dishwasher ( not a child) , prep menus and shopping in advance and wear as few clothes as possible - as an athlete you shower a lot ( hopefully) so the only real washing should be your kit ( I’m a cyclist so I know these things). Also invest in heated drying rack and dehumidifier ( boring myself now) Top vlog…and future as TV presenter or stand up once you’ve been to the Olympics.

Phily, I think you still have chances to go to Olympics (if you still want). Currently, only 2 of 3 women from UK are officially confirmed, you are the fastest of them in 2024, bureaucratically, you deserve the last spot, if you (for bureaucracy) finish another marathon by 1:26:50. You can do it! It does have to be the cool marathon (like in Boston, MS, USA), the shyer "Boston" one like in Boston, Lincolnshire still have the same distance. Just try to run any marathon before April 30, and if you got a decent result, then you can tell you grandkids, "Yes, I was at the Olympian level in 2024" :)

Seeing yourself and the elites in the US who didn’t make the Olympic Marathon team (Emma Bates, Molly Seidel, Sarah Hall, Galen Rupp) and the recent tragedy of Kiptum has motivated me to train harder for the marathon and want to see Olympians in action on the streets of LA.

@seb16x2110 6 месяцев назад

The UK potentially not even filling their 3 men and 3 women spots for the marathon (even tho more than 3 have the qualifying time or points) to "inspire" better performances is completely asinine. I've seen this same approach in other European countries and it's always been a fiasco. Pencil pushers in suits and board rooms at the head of athletics organizations feel entitled to medals at the games, because a lot of European countries (especially the UK) have won a lot before. But these suits have never competed professionally before and know nothing of crushing someones dream of going to the Omlympics. It's disgusting.

@chrissen87 7 месяцев назад

@davidand36 6 месяцев назад

I had essentially the same thought. We're more likely to see each other, though we won't know it. I just ran the Tokyo Marathon and one of the great things about that course is that it has several out-and-backs, so there's one place where I could look across the median and see the elite runners coming back, at about 30k, while I was going out, at about 16k. But the Berlin course doesn't have that, so we will just have to take it on faith that we are following in Phily's footsteps.

My son and I have known two Olympians fairly well. One was one of my gymnastics coaches, and both used to babysit my son when he was a kid. Both are phenomenal people, and being Olympians had nothing to do with their awesomeness. Their uniqueness, perseverance, kindness, and authenticity paved the way for their Olympic journey, not the other way around. The same goes for you, Phily! You have all of those same redeeming qualities, so the sky is the limit for you, with or without the Olympics! The hair clips are awesome too! Love the look!

I mean, the reason running doesn't have some kind of mainstream yearly event like Wimbledon is because it's not really as exciting or interesting to watch as a team sport is, with rules and things. It's just people....running. And as a runner I personally love watching professional runners, I love to watch college running and all that, but most people who are not also runners, don't really care that much. They care enough to watch it as a segment of many of other sports in the olympics.

I feel British athletics need to invest. Fill all the spaces. Each and every athlete that goes to the olympics generates a chain reaction, i.e. inspires others, inspires self. If person X from City Y gets selected, then a whole bunch of kids from city Y will hear about it. But if person X doesn't get selected yet the spaces aren't filled then some of those kids won't be inspired if they come from households that aren't interested in athletics. But when you know a local is taking part, you'll tune in. British athletics seems to be in a good spot. Everything should be done to keep the momentum up
