Really good work John and great vid as ever. Least conditions were better than forecast too, some of us got hit by hail near Green Gable! Was good to see you. I rolled my ankle pretty bad coming off Crag Fell, so currently not sure about Buttermere which will be a shame. But we'll see, have a good one if I don't see you there :)

A single 'f' in Welsh is pronounced as a 'v' and the 'y' isnt pronounced as 'ee' its pronounced as 'uh'. The 'big' isn't pronounced the same in Welsh, its pronounced 'beeg' because the 'i' is an 'ee' sound. So its actually pronounced phonetically as 'Pen uh Van' and 'Van uh Beeg'.

Fell runners doing squats is the mother of all knee problems, esp. ITBS. I heard you say you had knee issues in your videos for as long as I remember. I also saw you do squats in the previous gym video. Mate, just try removing squats from your gym workouts. Try more stretching and resistance band conditioning every other day instead, esp. 1-2 hours before a longie, and dynamic stretching/warmup just before you start running. Thank me later✌️

First time I’ve seen that mace exercise. That’s out there, very primal looking. Duddon Valley was indeed a beauty of a day. I only done the short, wasn’t far of DFL myself, but i was losing my fell race V. Proceeded to piss down for pretty much all subsequent days so it was the best part of my trip 😂 Any advice for strength exercises that might give me hill legs? I was useless going up compared to everyone else.
@lakelandtrailrunner27 күн бұрын
Yup the mace gets your inner Viking fired up 😉 squats mate. Lots and lots of squats in which ever variation you like. I’d start with Bulgarian split squats and maybe a barbell back squat. Focus on form first, get the movement right and address any mobility issues then start adding weight and increasing reps. Additionally, get out on the hills more. However, that’s easier said than done ☺️

It was cool to get it on camera. Jura has a special place in my heart. I went there before my "filming days" so most of it was in my head. It was amazing to look back it this place on the video.
