BILSDALE Fell Race 2023 [DNF]

[@runfreeultra]

This race doesn't pull any punches! Great course and great weather for this years race. Are you tempted to give this one a go?

[@DM_RUNNING]

That was a quick turnaround! Tough luck on the ankle fingers crossed it's a speedy recovery. Good to speak to you during the race, for the limited time I could keep up with you 😂 I clearly need to get some more hill training in.

Thanks mate was good to run with you, well done on a great race - hope to see you back there next year!

Sorry about the ankle. Horrible feeling when it turns over. Great course. Lovely clear skies for it. Best wishes on the next.

Cheers, luckily wasn't recording at the point the ankle went 'snap' 🤢 Great race though

[@dalefoster4561]

Excellent footage. Good to put on a DNF "warts and all". The quality of the camera is amazing ! What did you use to film it mate???

[@runfreeultra]

Thanks Dale, there's no hiding behind a DNF! This was all filmed on a GoPro Hero 10 in 4k 👍 Thanks for watching!

Looks a really nice race that, is it north york moors? Sorry about the ankle, hope its a quick recovery

[@runfreeultra]

Thanks mate, yep it's in the North York Moors starting from Chop Gate, well worth a go!

I am so sorry about your ankle. I like the part which you did film. Looks like a tough and interesting race. What club do you run for? (P.S. how did you know where to run, did you recce it or did you do it before, because there weren't people in front all the time.)

[@runfreeultra]

Thanks Olga. It’s a great race. This is the fourth year I’ve ran it, with a few recce’s over the years. There’s a few nav options on the course that can save you a few minutes, and I certainly haven’t perfected it yet! I run with Esk Valley Fell Club (who organise this race) 👍
