Thank you Stephen I had a half marathon last week and practiced the nutrition and pace setting as you instructed I was surprised that I was able to run the race without feeling rushed at all even senior age There were so many problems in half and full races before My next run is full, and I am looking forward to itbrThank you so much again

amazing video, im only looking at it now although it was posted in2020 I cant wait to document my journey into running a sub 3hr road marathon I will be sure to come back after I ran my first marathon
Comment from : Cebolenkosi Nxumalo

Fantastic run It took me 4 years to build up the distance, confidence and experience (4 marathons of injury and near misses) when I managed my first sub 3 - 2:57 Now I'm older and slower, but the running fire in my belly is still there My first ultra is at the Serpents Trail 50k in July and I can't wait Love your content and must have watched 20 of your vids in the last week! Thanks for the great and varied content on your running journey! 👍
Comment from : S Ellis

Thank you for the amazing and inspiring video My goal is BQ, which for me is aiming for 3:21
Comment from : cinupina

Oh! Now I see! It can be done using Final Surge (if you don't use their beta site feature) Great stuff!!!
Comment from : HosTek

The revelation of what you ate/drank is a game changer, your body must be very well trained at burning its own fat supplies

Comment from : Toast Bread

Congrats - great achievement and one I'm hoping to emulate at London this year brbrSo I've just starting the training for a sub 3 hrs I first ran a marathon in 2018 and this will be my 4th I've ordered some vaporflies and will see how it goes brbrMay I please ask what was your height and weight on race day ? My BMI has always been over 24 and my quickest marathon so far is 3hrs 18 So I'm hoping that there's scope to lower it with reducing weight and the vaporflies

Comment from : Bob Bob

Great insight thank you
Comment from : Jordan Dermott

Most of my long runs 10 miles a week are in zone 4 or 5 I am 24 year old male my most recent 10 mile was in 1:28:27 and my 5k time was 21:41 do I have a shot at a sub 3 marathon if I do 10 miles a week
Comment from : Ismael

Very good quality video Congrats on your huge achievement! My long term goal is to get a sub 3 eventually as well I started running a couple years ago at age 27, so you definitely give me hope I can get it done too!
Comment from : Chris Klepper

I have been running for a year now and im wondering if a sub 3hr marathon is a realistic goal for me I have a PB in the half marathon of 1:23:09, but from what I know in the marathon the last 8ks are hard Im averaging around 70km/week right now and im not doing any specific workouts aside the longruns on Sunday
Comment from : KODA

Great video Nice footage and realistic message Joy to watch
Comment from : keithkool

I turn 45 in a few days and I have been running most of my life, but I have never trained properly My marathon PR is 4:27 and my goal for 2021 is Sub 4 and maybe I can hit sub 3 before my 50th birthday
Comment from : HodgePodge Journeys

Really informative video Very useful to see the sort of volume required to get that sort of time, as well as the 5k, 10k and HM markers to aim for Many congratulations on the sub-3hr marathon!
Comment from : Gareth Jones

So much love for this video, thanks for the advice!
Comment from : vilhelm999

“Many years of consistent running” - no sorry I wanted “use this weird leg strap to shave 30 minutes off your marathon time”
Comment from : Craig Brown

Ran my first ever marathon in October last year in 356 I'm 49 years old and have been running 3 times a week with typical weekly distance of only 15 to 17 miles I also walk 10,000 steps each day and cycle about 50 miles each week Doing my next marathon in March so going to increase my run distance
Comment from : Joe Truelove

Massive congrats
Comment from : If Tomatos are a fruit why isnt ketchup a jam?

Great advice and as always a top quality video Cheers
Comment from : Trent Hirst

I love this, it's honest and shows how you can't just turn up and hope for the best; hard work and consistency over really long periods of time is what it takes to get there Well done!
Comment from : The Running Apprentice

Great job bro Congrats I wish I could, too :)
Comment from : İbrahim Eravcı

Thank you for the inspiration and insight of your sub 3 effort! Congratulations!! I never thought sub 3 was possible for me but my PB is down to 3:19 and I feel like I have a lot more opportunity to improve Cheers!
Comment from : Chris See

Congratulations and great job of explaining what it takes through you're journey!
Comment from : Göran Winblad

Well done 👍 great achievement 👍👍
Comment from : Ultra Runner Adam

Mind-blowing Inspiring sir! Definitely a great film!
Comment from : Zawir Running Channel

I loved this video! I am a person always stuck in zone 3 I’m hoping someday to possibly break 3 My best to date is 3:07 two years ago but my mileage was not near what you have outlined in this video Would you consider sharing your sub-3 training plan or is there a place to purchase it?
Comment from : Jeff Nearing

Great video and run, I've entered into the London Marathon ballot Fingers crossed, as this would be my first ever marathon Also hoping for a sub 3 hr, I'll be 47
Comment from : That Running Guy

Stephen, did you follow a particular training plan for your sub 3 marathon?
Comment from : Michael Burkard

Hi! Your video is very inspiring May I know what’s your stride length and cadence for 4:16m/km? Thanks
Comment from : Nicholas Ling

Ace video, really enjoyed it 👌
Comment from : Julian

Congratulations on the sub 3, I'd love to get below 330 I'll just have to keep trying
Comment from : John Bridger

Fantastic achievement and really interesting video which was both informative and motivating, many thanks!
Comment from : Karl Lowther

Thanks Stephen for posting this video, it was very helpful I do enjoy your videos as they offer a view into all the great ultras out therebrNot too different from you I returned to races in my mid 40's, running 10k's and half marathons with little or no training My times were respectable, either side of the injuries! But but always knew I could do better Eventually common sense broke through my thick scull (only took 10 years), and I have started reading loads of running books, Matt Fitzgerald 80/20 book is great, following Tommy Rivs training plans and of course watching your YouTube videos 😉brThe details you captured in this post were excellent and really helpful, thank you Maybe I'll see you at an ultra in the not too distant future!🏃‍♂️ Hope you all have a safe Christmas Thanks again 🎅
Comment from : Marco Sciacca

Ok I need some years so I have to wait :) halfmarathon without nutrition works fine though already
Comment from : Leeroy49

This is an awesome vid for any aspiring runner 👏
Comment from : Sam Martin - Peak Performance

Brilliant vid Stephen, out of interest can you remember your first marathon time?
Comment from : Daz Elliott

Not eating or drinking anything for 20 miles of the marathon I'm sorry, but that is not good advice Kudos to your progression and results but I don't think this is recommended for most people
Comment from : cicirunner

One of the most honest videos great job
Comment from : Keith ó Proinsias

Excellent video which gives me hope! I’ve uploaded a couple of videos recently about my journey from 5:45 to 3:15 at age 49 Lots of useful take home info for me thankyou
Comment from : Tom Rides and Runs

That was very enjoyable Clear well put together understated and in k/per mileTanks I subscribed
Comment from : Bo Jjhanga

thank you for this vid! really boosts my motivation to keep at itbr<- 41y old, started running 2y ago, currently at about 70-80k/week
Comment from : ozenfant

Awesome vid Fantastic information and advice given, in fact, i think that's one of the best running vids I've seen and i watch alot! Superb effort and well done That's be my dream my pb is 359 only done 2 marathons and am hoping to reduce this alot, but at 52 question whether time is running out I think there's plenty in the old dog yet though👍🏻
Comment from : Ian Collinge

Fantastic and inspirational It's my goal to go sub 3 hour next year
Comment from : Tony S

Well done Stephen I spoke to you during the marathon I was the idiot that ran 20km the day before, as I didn't know the race was on! Entered with 15hrs notice and managed a 339 You were flying!
Comment from : Ian L

congratulation what a great achievement
Comment from : Tsen Studio

Great video I begun running earlier this year when the lockdown hit but have been on and off due to a couple of injuries More recently, I’ve been trying the maffetone method which a lot of people rave about I can see you primarily stick to Z1/Z2 training, have you ever tried Z3/ maffetone training?
Comment from : Tevin Kittoe

I really enjoyed this video!! Thank you
Comment from : Bowmanvillain

I just stumbled across ur film whilst watching Ben Parks at Goodward! And I’m really plsd I did what a great little film, full of insight with a touch of humour, a v inspiring watch, if I hadn’t already done my run I defo would have put my trainers on! Thankyou :) I have just subscribed :)
Comment from : Clair Hardy wynn

So you followed 80/20 for training but not so much for diet, carbs stayed in the diet?
Comment from : Mark Cameron

Nice video, glad you went into nutrition and will have to talk to you about that carb depletion diet Well done again
Comment from : Nicholas Barter

Great video, great achievement
Comment from : Pooch Pamper Parlour

Awesome video and running, how did you combat shin splints ? been running for 4 years and still have issues
Comment from : Marc Merritt

Braveau - well done!brbrand I thought I was well into figures and numbers, I am certain, you win :P
Comment from : Run Han Run

Amazing run even in those conditions! What time did you get?!
Comment from : Zander Dyter

Congratulations! Do you think you would have been able to achieve sub 3 without the carbon plated shoes?
Comment from : David Forshaw

Brilliant! Delighted for you! What an achievement 💪💪
Comment from : Christina Clementson

excellent vid
Comment from : Andys121

Congratulations Stephen, great achievement
Comment from : Si Effen

Very informative! Congrats on the sub-3 What did you use for the stats of volume per year and percentage heart rate? Is that Trainingpeaks or a different program?
Comment from : LittlecErased

Congratulations Stephen Very Great result I will follow your suggestions on how to construct the race along years I continue to follow you on your treadmill runs and maybe sometimes I will join you in zwift Congratulations again
Comment from : Gianluca Salvatori

A great story, well done again Insightful to see the volume build per year
Comment from : Jim Haysom

Very impressive, and gives me some hope that I can hit those sorts of times (I'm 39 and only started running properly last year), great quality videos, cheers
Comment from : tommosal

awesome video, Congrats Stephen I am 52 and started running in 2016 My road is very similar as yours, 5K, 10K, HM and now running Ultra's But speedwise I am way slower ;-) Love to run, especially in this strange time we live in Keep on the good work Looking forward seeing more video's
Comment from : Hans van Gurp

Congratulations, great effort!
Comment from : Chris Hazell

4:16 per k for 42km !! wow !!! really well done m8, it gives hope and inspiration to us minnows I'd love to get a sub 3 My PB for marathon is 3:25 but that was in Helsinki and there was 400m of elevation gain in total, so probably closer to 3:15 on the flat I think you chose the right race as well, flat as a pancake and easier in some ways mentally (depends on the person I guess) I think i'll give this one a go next year Great video and some fascinating insight lots to take away from this video, thanks for sharing it mate
