South Downs Way 100 | Will I finish this year? |Centurion Running

Having suffered a DNF at the 2017 South Downs Way 100, I was determined to complete the 2018 SDW100. See how I did running between Winchester and Eastbourne along one of Britain's great trails. Using my new GoPro Fusion camera for the first time to create some new angles.

Amazing video. The go pro fusion footage and your editing is excellent Stephen. All very inspiring. Keep them coming!! :)

[@EMLRecordings]

Always find myself coming back to this video, the music really compliments the video Steve it's a brilliant video from your collection is this one !!

[@Decadent36]

You're always a hell of an inspiration to me, Stephen. I could only run a fraction of the ground you covered but I would love to traverse that beautiful countryside. The peaceful morning in the village must have been quite the experience too. Here's to many, many more miles!

[@ianrunsonplants8850]

Well done mate. Interesting video using the fusion.

[@mättwainwright999]

I was “working” at the Cocking CP, good to meet you, great run! See you at the start line nx year :-) welcome to the world of 360!

[@FilmMyRun]

Yea, loving the Fusion, but I messed up the image quality on this one. Missed a setting before stitching. I'll get it right next time.

[@stevengreenwood5057]

Great effort, always look forward to your videos. You deserve a much bigger following than you have!

[@FilmMyRun]

Thanks Steve. I'm trying to get those sub numbers up!!

[@jamesmartin9571]

Film My Run couldn’t agree with Steve more. This channel is going to breakthrough soon. Highly underrated. Great content. Keep up the great work!

[@chrisburt7374]

Well done Steve , another tremendous epic piece of filming capturing the whole event . Your a braver man than I , gotta be an accomplishment crossing the finish line . Superb !

[@GarethBradley]

Smashed it out of the park Stephen.

[@FilmMyRun]

Not sure I smashed it but at least I got it done. back next year again probably to give it another shot!

[@sambutton]

Thanks for another great video! I love your channel - I'm running The Wall Ultra this weekend (69 miles) which I enjoyed last year too! I'd LOVE for you to come up and film The Wall - it needs a truly great video from yourself! (Carlisle Castle to Newcastle via Hadrian's Wall country)?! I think you've sold me on the SDW100 tho - may have to try this beast out next year!

[@davegibb3175]

Good effort

[@marlinweekley51]

👍 from USA . Good job on run and video. Always wonder what SW100 was like - thanks 🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

[@sambutton]

Morning FMR Any tips for running your first 100 miler? A video would be great to hear how you transitioned from marathons and maybe 50milers to the big one? I've done The Wall (69 miles) twice now and I'm just wondering if I could survive another 31 miles?! A video on how to train not just physically but mentally would be appreciated by the many followers, I think?! I loved The Wall this year and didn't have any real problems - but last year I struggled with fatigue etc. Advice for night running when physically drained and want to sleep? Advice for keeping going in various weather's? Love your channel 👍🏻

[@FilmMyRun]

I think if you have done 69 miles then 100 is the natural next step up. It is a learning curve that only you can experience. The main thing to master is nutrition. I can't help other than tell you that people who rely on burning fat and eating savoury real foods, rather than eating sugary foods, tend to suffer fewer gastric issues. Pacing is important. You won't manage a negative split but you need to try and get as close as you can, which means going off a lot slower than you think. It's important not to panic about this. People think you need to bank miles/time. But more often than not that is a false economy. I've never had a problem staying awake on a 100. The adrenaline should carry you through. Keeping warm or cool and dry is vital. Just monitor the weather in the days up to the run and be prepared. Put things on in advance rather than waiting until you are soaked or freezing. 100 miles demands your concentration for the entire run and it's much more about your mental strength than physical. Good luck!!

[@sambutton]

Wow! Thanks a lot for all that! Lots to think about - that's great! During my Ultra I definitely favoured the real savoury food over gels etc so that makes sense!

[@thomasbunce5995]

Awesome running and digging the new camera angles. The bridge at 7:36, was that the bridge you flipped me off whilst running beachy head? 😉😂

[@FilmMyRun]

Thomas Bunce ha yes!!

[@thomasbunce5995]

Film My Run When we next race Im so going to try to recreate a photo but in the reverse! 😅

[@daz_on_earth]

excellent work mate, got my first 60 miler in 3 weeks over the peak district, canny nervous!

[@daz_on_earth]

How naive was I 😆 done a lot more since, never gets easier

[@danielcreed9078]

Well done, great running and inspirational as always.

[@amygreen1015]

Second South Downs Way 100 video I've watched today. Love seeing your determination.

[@DanBrazil-brazilianx]

Really good to see what's in store for those tackling this epic route. Fortunately it won't be as hot this year! Great video.

[@juliocesarmorais3176]

Show!!!🏃🏻‍♂️💨💨💨

[@dmitryrusakov2027]

Hi Steve! Great Result and nice video! Do you use gimbal with GoPro Fusion or just extender? And if you use, could you share with on?

[@russellking7749]

Great effort Steve true grit and determination shown there to get that done well done.

[@ianmoore7771]

Well done mate, brutal conditions.

[@lisafrancis9605]

Very inspiring thank you.

[@jakejames6994]

Awesome mate well done 👏 ❤

[@FilmMyRun]

Thanks Jake. Are you running it this year?

[@jakejames6994]

@@FilmMyRun no but you have inspired me for the Lakeland 50 then the 100 if I survive 😂

[@emlyngriffith5846]

Well done. Good effort 👍🍷

[@FilmMyRun]

Thank you. Have you done it? I’m signed up again for next year.

[@emlyngriffith5846]

@@FilmMyRun Lol. I wish! I’m in my 70s and my running days are over (my furthest was only 40k)….but I watch these videos because they inspire me to walk 8-10km a day up a Spanish mountain. Do it while you can 👍🍷
