Best: Ginger Runner, as his guests are often good. Can't stand how his wife/girlfriend/whatever just sits there and pretends she loves running and she looks bored with how he devotes his whole life to running.

Worst: Mocko

thats what you like? grow up kid

The Runner formerly known as Vegan

Once upon a time, Ryan Trahan was one of the best. Now he isn't even a running channel anymore. But he made incredible quality workout videos and training logs.

Bruh you realize she's an ultra marathoner, right?

The Athlete Special probably has the best running content of any channels right now, but wow is that guy a douche Soren was fun when he was in HS but it was sad to watch him get more depressed in college. Hope Oregon works out for him.

I have been following his channel since early 2017 before the whole A&M disaster. Ryan's videos in HS were awesome. Put real effort into the filming, was really easygoing and made it easy to root for him. I have mixed feelings about his more recent endeavors; it's cool to see how much work he put into his channel and how it has paid off for him, but wow his content straight blows now. The "relatable" persona is stale and I don't think he does a good job in the "review" culture on youtube; his videos were much better when he was active with his friends doing stuff.

This is the best video to come out of his clan.

Some that I like:

Seth James Demoor

Strength Running (Jason Fitzgerald)

Ryan Clayton

VO2max

Running Wild

Ginger Runner

Run Steep Get High

The Run Experience

Billy Yang

Fulltiltward (No bells and whistles, very little editing)

Sage Running

Running with the Toad is an amazing YouTube channel that gives a great scheme to interview athletes.

TrackTalk also is another great YouTube channel that uses Andrew Wheating to interview athletes.

jbrunning is the best youtube channel period

By far best-running channel:

"Runners Awesome"

For shoe reviews:

Jami has been doing great job (great production):

Hope Trackster continue:

wow, I still subscribe to KIMbia — they were 1st documenting cool stuff:

There are some videos that I think Hoka put out over the past few years where each one focuses on specific towns and places to run there. I'd look it up right now but YouTube is blocked on the work computer. Each one was around 10 min or so and was worth the watch.

Some of the best channels I watch are the GCN / GTN channels (Global Cycling Network / Global Triathlon Network). If they had a similar channel that focused on just Running (GRN maybe?) it would be excellent. As they are though, they make some really great content and sometimes GTN has running focused episodes.

Damn, I think Mocko's goofiness yet competitive drive is refreshing. He's rather blunt about his let downs and spins it in a pretty hilarious fashion. He has a natural knack for the camera, seriously.

I thought his Nike announcement was a bit much, but most of his content is brilliant with edits, I hope he continues to find his niche in sport.

Only running youtuber anyone needs to know is TheAthleteSpecial. He gives a great view into the life of a real d1 runner

Best: Sage Canaday

Worst: Jami and his stupid shoe reviews

I hate any vlog that has unnecessary video footage that's unrelated to the topic. I don't care about their sht high speed sections, walking around town, talking about their day, and their terrible pop music.

Um. It actually sounds as if you DO care. Way too much.

The Vegan Runner has got to be one of the most delusional runners out there. Also many say he lies about his PRs.

Sage Canaday's is just about the only channel that I'll watch every video of. He's got a good personality, a voice that's easy on the ears, is very anti-doping, knowledgeable and his videos are well produced. Others, like therunexperience, tend to irritate me. Sometimes I find a good video on a particular topic, but the channel is dead or updated infrequently.

However, if you include running history channels uploading famous races, there are a lot of good ones out there. Too many to list, and maybe off topic for this thread.

only channel worth watching that has real running content. anyone that disagrees doesn't know running
