I own over 20 running hats from all sorts of brands. I came across this one at the London Marathon expo while picking up my bib. It felt light and breathable, and it looked good when I tried it on so I bought it.
I tested it the next day on my final tapering run, then wore it on race day. It was a hot one, and I sweat more than the average person believe me. Usually, my running sunglasses fog up, but they didn’t with this hat. That’s what made me choose it over my previous favourite.
I can honestly say this hat kept my head cool, shaded my face from the sun, and stopped me from having to constantly take off my sunglasses to defog them.
The only improvement I’d suggest based on my experience with running hats is to make the bottom of the top pin plastic. From what I’ve seen, every hat I own (except one with a plastic pin) ends up rusting or corroding, which can cause skin irritation. I speak as a bald man if you’ve got hair, your experience might be different, but this has been mine.
Used this plan to train for the Enschede Marathon on April 25.
Great plan with lots of speed variations, and a logic build-up of the KMs. Trained using the 3:15 target time, ended up running a 3:13:54. Will definitely be getting the next level for my quest to break the 3 hour mark.
100% recommend!
Chose to train for Manchester Marathon using this plan targeting a 4:30 min/km pace. Missed 8km off one long run in the build phase and a MP pace section Out of a long run but still completed the marathon with an average pace of 4:26 min/km. The race was 20 DegC and I still held up thanks to this plan. I will be using it again to attempt sub 3. Thanks Ben, you’re a legend.
This beginners plan helped get me to the start (and end!) of my first marathon. Despite it being a lot hotter on the day than any of my training runs, I was chuffed to be able to run it all and finish in 4 hrs 17 mins. I came into the training block having a decent level of fitness and knowing what my 'easy' and 'interval' paces were, however the plan gives you estimated pace times based on the time you are aiming to finish. It was easy to follow and manageable as I wanted to run 3-4 times per week so I could fit in an extra strength session to keep the niggles at bay!
I followed this plan for a sub 4 goal , I loved how simple it was to follow and program the workouts into my garmin. I didn't achieve the goal as I injured myself 2 weeks out and took a complete week off running I re-adjusted my goal and managed to get round in 4h.08. Note to self: I should have followed the strength and conditiong plan
Got my Sub-3 Club Tee at the London Marathon Expo by meeting Ben and Sarah in person.
Great tee from great persons.
Thanks Ben & Sarah
I'm 58 and after last year's Canberra Half Marathon with a finishing time of 1.54 using another training plan, I wanted to do this year's race and see if I could get close to a 1.45 time so I downloaded BP's L3 Half Marathon plan and accompanying strength training guide. Having followed the plan religiously for the first 9 weeks, I then picked up a lower leg injury resulting in almost a week of training and fortunately was then able to get back into running and completed the race in 1.46, or what equated to 4.59/km pace. To be honest, at this point i was just hoping to either beat my previous year's time or get down to 1.50 so my final finishing time really is testiment to a plan that pushes your running the right way without breaking you. Highly recommended and thank you Ben.
Goal was for at least sub 40. Was a bit doubtful at the start as I was on the higher end of the pacing chart for 40mins. I started to achieve better targets as the plan went on as I knew if I could run the paces come the end of the plan I had a good chance. A few missed sessions due to some family illnesses in week 5, a week missed between week 8 and 9 due to a tooth extraction, so was not the smoothest training block. Come race day and every came together! Clocked 39:17 for the 10k and was delighted!!
I absolutely loved the double speed work sessions and feel like they contributed massively to my success. The progression runs also were magic! Although I do tend to love that type of workout.
Have already bought the half marathon program with the goal for September.
2019, the year I fell out of love with running! Fast forward to 2025 and my love for running is BACK! And it's back due to the training plans of Parkes Running, plain and simple... the plans are perfectly structured for you to achieve your goal! I started with the 10k one and this year have just completed my first half marathon using Ben's plan! Now onto the In-Between Races Plan L2 and loving it! All the plans are well put together, easy to follow and THEY WORK! Plain and simple... Give them a try, highly recommended!
Very well packaged and delivery was fast. More than happy with the fit and feel of this singlet. Extremely comfy to wear and let's not forget the eye catching colours.
