Anyone else get absolutely emotional watching Mary!? Incredible! Congrats to you both 🎉

[@christinaclementson]

Incredible Mary! I think sometimes the videos don’t show just how tough these courses are. Huge respect and congratulations on 2nd place 🎉

[@matthewcreelman1347]

Sprint finish after a 50k ultra!

[@kbkb3358]

Excellent work! Thanks for bringing us along! I am 40 and attempting my first 25km trail run in a few months. The last time I did any sort of a race was 16 yrs ago. Your films are motivating and helpful! Cheers from Australia! 🇦🇺

[@ThisMessyHappy]

That’s awesome!! Good luck for your race. Hope you love it

[@kellym3367]

Way to go Mary! That is incredible. So happy for you

[@jobanski]

Ben, I think you’ll have to get another ice bath and then you two can have, “IIICCE BAATH CHAAAAAAT!”

[@ThisMessyHappy]

😂

[@jimfrazier1073]

Amazing Job Mary, always inspiring, always pushing us to be better. "Thank God I found running" One of my favorite Mary quotes, so loved seeing your joy of running shine! Thank you💪❤️

[@christystergar4361]

That part made me tear up the first time I, so rewatched. Same thing - even more so the second time around!

[@ThisMessyHappy]

Thank you so much! It was a moment on the road - feeling very grateful!

[@norma1604]

My thoughts were exactly the same. "I thought I've done the last climb." 😂😂😂 Well done. Congratulations again on 2nd place.

[@ThisMessyHappy]

Thanks Norma - the end was brutal wasn’t it!! Well done to you too!

Very well done 😅😅😅 Congrats

[@Midlifesports]

Awesome stuff! Interested in what the elevation profile was for that race compared to the first. I suffered in my first 50, had a much better 2nd one too

[@ThisMessyHappy]

This was 1500m so significantly less than the first - which suited me :)

[@nottstrees]

must be hard to pace yourself for 50k nice watch well done

[@vinhle9525]

Congrats! May I know your head light model?

[@ThisMessyHappy]

Thanks! It was just a cheap one that I bought off Lazada in Thailand :)

[@Benfipost]

Love your channel - but the under/overlaying music is so loud it blocks Mary while shes talking - just to let you know :-)

[@Mentholox]

Hey guys. Congrats with the amazing results. But do take care when you are doing your ice baths. There is evidence it supresses the natural inflamation after a workout and that inflamation is a trigger for your body to repair and recover. So while the bath is amazing for the brain, its not always as good for the body!
