Mark G : The Test Run

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.
