22 x 400m repeats at altitude in Flagstaff and a very full day; what better time to answer all of your questions with absolutely no filter?
This one covers the sub three debate, how I got into running, cross training for time-poor runners, marathon fuelling as an elite, how I picks races in a four year Olympic cycle, brand deals I’ve said no to, the London Marathon double header, periods in marathon training, hill training for New York, how I met coach Jon, the London Marathon double header, and yes, the baby question…

Почему 22*400??? Нужно 12*800, это даст больше профита. А ещё лучше 8*1000.
Come run the Two Oceans Ultra marathon, and/or the Comrades ultra marathon in South Africa, where the Secretary Bird is quite common!
Great video and yes endure the CRINGE….AT ALL COST!
I do want to know what you’re eating around minute 12, because it looks delicious!
22 x 400? I had to read that multiple times… what the f. 5 x 1k nearly killed me this morning 😂 machine 💪
09:10 I'm definitely in the creator-cringe phase 😂 But I hoped that I would get out in less than six months. Thanks for destroying my illusions 😂
As someone who struggled to get pregnant, I always recommend anyone who cares about timing get a fertility evaluation sooner rather than later. That way if there are any potential barriers you can take that into account.
Lovely video. Thanks for all the sharing. Perhaps we could get 20-30 seconds with each of your team mates/training partners over the training block? Might give us other athletes to follow and cheer for in their races.
What’s wrong with “Chinese company like Amazon” other than it is Chinese?
as someone from birmingham, i feel like a lot of us didnt even know the championships were happening until they were and wouldve gone to see it otherwise 🙁
152k views and only 2.4k in LIKES .. thats a bit shocking , .. didnt you 2 do a Q&A before when daniel was on the bike and you were running .. if it was you 2 and im not thinking of someone else , how did that compare with views and likes .. im curious .. are you ?
Would love to see a bird watching video! When I'm visiting my parents, I pretend the pied wagtail I tend to see is the same one each time, clearly coming along to see how I'm doing and lift my spirits!
As someone who was obsessed with running sub 3 and have done it, I can say it feels amazing when you finally do it but all the failed attempts makes you dismiss the "race" and the achievment of running a marathon in general. You may run a 3:05 and be mad at the end.
Are you famous enough that you could sign your old trainers and give them to a charity auction or something? Or just straight-up sell them in a merch store? I have no idea if there'd be demand for something like that or not but I've heard of weirder things being sold. People collect used baseballs, hockey pucks, and whatnot and certain ones that are involved in winning games or records or whatnot can be worth quite a bit.
I’d be down for making some art from a pair of your shoes! Would be fun.
I’m having so much fun watching these I can’t wait to watch you race New York ❤
Cough…ucan .. cough cough ..
I love the comment about running giving you a social life so you don’t need alcohol…this is so true
If Neil Buchanan is watching a big art attack from Phily's shoes would be amazing
Who do you see as your biggest "rivals" for LA28 GB marathon vests?
Ohhh my gosh, I've seen a Secretary Bird up close at the zoo! They are magnificent! Truly a beautiful experience!
Some of the obsession with sub 3 might come with males under 44 trying to get a BQ or NYC spot but it is a benchmark too most people running sub 3 go from the 7's to 6's for pace
aw, Phily, i just love your videos!! i had to cancel my Patreon (temporarily) because of a financial situation but i'm planning on rejoining soon! currently training for the Des Moines marathon in October on my way to 52 marathons in all 50 states plus DC and Puerto Rico! Iowa will be state #7 🙂 i always learn something from you and just feel generally inspired and comforted by your content. I follow Rory as well and love seeing you in the background of his videos from Flagstaff. I'd love to see a shoe review from you but i know brand commitments may make it difficult? trying to find a shoe to run my long runs and marathon in to hit my time goal of 3:40 for Des Moines then 3:30 for my spring marathon. Love the Grind!!!
This will be my 6th straight NYC – it's my favorite weekend each year. Cheers
Where can I get an invisible unicorn? Or do I already have one?
I didn’t think the running community was toxic…until I herniated 4 discs and 7 years later still am not better, and gained 70 lbs over it. I actually can run without it affecting my back, and I started a small running account that is actually gaining traction and views now. I have had so many runners show up to say awful things to me because I’m REALLY slow, even though I work really hard.
I really like your new hairstyle. You look great!
No, I didn't immediately google the Secretarybird and watch a full video before coming back to finish this video… 😏
Who tf wants a donated marathon training shoe with 400+ miles lol
Must of us track food to ensure we're getting enough I feel.
Hi, I was watching the recent Euro Athletic events, and seriously wondering why Philly is not in the 10K race.
The secretary bird is my favourite bird!! We’re lucky to see it every so often, living in SA but it really is a treat seeing it every time 😍
You have to watch and cringe to know then to fix it, that’s why things improve!!!
I’ve got one of your first t shirts, must be a collectors piece now ? 😂
Love the cringe? lol, I do enjoy these Q&A bits, keep up the great work and content!
When running is toxic, wtf then is this "hybrid" stuff 😅. A real man must insert random PB 😂
Hoped this video was going to be about the microplastics running gear sheds into the laundry, but that's a whole other issue the industry isn't talking about enough (and no – recycled clothing isn't the answer…)
Here is a crazy idea that could help supporting you. Sign your retiring shoes and sell them. People would definitely buy an "originally worn by Phily" signed pair of shoes. You wouldn't make MILLIONS, but it would probably offset the cost of buying new shoes. 🙂
Didn’t realise you are xenophobic 😳. Love to hear what’s wrong with “Chinese company like Amazon” other than it is Chinese.
Very good point if they can cover the women's race better in London next year, let's hope it's more than just the leader cam for once! 🤞🤞🤞
