I’ve followed Ben’s sock recommendations for years—my feet are prone to blisters so I’m always on the lookout for decent ones. When he brought out his own, I figured they’d be spot on… and they are. Genuinely excellent socks. 10/10, would happily recommend.

Started out wanting to run and tried aimless runs. As soon as I had a plan it all started making sense. Just did my first official 5k in 31min.

Using this plan is the first time I've trained with any intent, and stuck to a plan for any length of time. I loved having some structure to my training, and it's made me much more aware of my pacing. The strength training has some great exercises and felt like it was making an impact on my running form. Would absolutely recommend!

After running my first 21k in March this year in Dubrovnik/Croatia at Du motion Running hero with the help of Ben's plan and advice for a 21k Level1 beginner. I asked Ben and his team for advice after submitting my 21k run analysis and previous training. They advised me that based on my previous experiences and training as a beginner I could move to 21k Level 2, which I did. I have just started the second week of the 21k level2 improver. So far everything is going according to plan and I am happy with it and I recommend it. My big thanks to Ben and his team for their help, support and above all for their understanding for us older recreationals runners who would like to try to push the limits.

I ordered the bucket hat after other previous purchases which were recommended to me. As expected the hat was exactly as I expect very quality and delivered on a good time.

I have done a few 1/2 marathons using the Garmin Coaches and really like the simplicity of the Parkes Marathon plan, it's really easy to follow and will hopefully help me to achieve my first full marathon in March next year.

Top quality, right size, bright colours! Worth it!

The plan is well written and easy to figure out. Ben made it so beginners and advanced runners know what needs to be done.

Fantastic running hat. Lightweight, doesnt slip or rub.

Reasonable new to running and have been wearing my normal sports socks , couple of running friends have offered advice get good trainers and get good socks , stumbled across Ben’s channel on YouTube which helped massively with trainer choice so have recently purchased socks and shorts both have been quality products and you get the feel of someone who cares with the service.

As a new runner, been following Ben's videos for a while. It's one of my references, so when I learned I could buy "Parkes Running" socks I instantly pulled the trigger! I absolutely love them! They are comfy, stylish and I was able to get them in the length I love the most, sitting just below the calf, something some top brands don't offer.
Being from abroad, "suffered" a bit with shipping costs, but I wanted to give back and thank you guys for all the amazing content in some way, so I just "ignored" it. Any chance we'll get some more colorful versions? I'll be back for more either way!

The personalized card was touching! Thank you for that!

Getting it done!

Fantastic running socks. Really good quality 👍

love the merchandise it’s all worth money and good quality

Ran my first ever marathon in these socks at the weekend and they were so comfortable. No blisters and the compression meant that my feet felt and looked much better than I'd imagined after a tough day on the trail. Have washed really well after previous runs. So impressed with these and such a bargain!

Run the Lyon marathon with it, it was so comfort, light, no issues with sweat, it felt great all the way.
And, the style, loved it.
