Mark G : The Test Run
Description
Welcome to my running vlog!
I’m documenting my journey from beginner to better runner. Tackling training blocks, exploring trails, racing everything from 5Ks to ultras, and learning a lot along the way.
You’ll find weekly vlogs with a light-hearted take on:
🏃♂️ Training sessions
📉 Heart rate and pacing
🏞️ Trail running
🎯 Form and drills
👟 Gear and shoes
💪 Strength and recovery
🌧️ Running in all weathers
🎬 And the ups and downs of chasing big goals!
Since starting the channel, I’ve completed multiple 10Ks, half marathons, and 50K ultras. Right now, I'm chasing a sub-20 minute 5K, followed by a trail ultra challenge later in the year.
The Test Run is about progress, not perfection; trying things out and experimenting with all that running has to offer, and having fun along the way.
Subscribe to join me for the training, the races, the experiments, and the occasional PB!
It’s free, and I’d love to have you along for the run.

Good luck with the recovery Mark. Getting out for a winter walk can be just as invigorating as a run. The important thing is to get out there. Looking forward to following your progress mate.

Sounds like a plan, Mark! All very sensible with the recovery, hopefully you’ve caught it early and it’s a minor break from running 🏼🏼🏼

You know what to do to get back into action Mark. You're living the proper influencer lifestyle with multiple cameras. Rest up bud and get ready for the Spire Ultra.

Good luck with the knee rehab - got to be one of the most annoying niggles that rears it head from time to time.
