Due to this years lockdown situation I decided to start keep fit. So I started with speedwalking then jogging. Last month I decided to start running for a 5k. I completed my first 5k in 27 mins and last week ran 24 min 45 secs. Today is my 55th birthday!!!! Cannot believe what I have achieved when I never even considered running before. Just goes to prove what can be done when you want to. Great video Flora.

I got a little teary-eyed when you crossed the finish line! Congratulations Flora!! Prior to COVID lockdown, I was training for a 10k race, but when it hit here I became very depressed and stopped running. I'm finally feeling better after months of being sedentary and I'm starting to run again. I feel like I'm starting from scratch, but your vlogs (especially your race-day ones, thank you for the time and effort you put into making them!) are very inspirational to me. I hope to get into distance running and trail running someday. You've really sparked my curiosity!
@FloraBeverley4 жыл бұрын
This is a really lovely message, thank you so much. I too was welling up randomly after crossing the finish line, but i get more teary watching others finish than myself! So sorry to hear you were struggling through lockdown, I really hope the running helps cheer you up ❤ i know it does for me. I hope to continue to do plenty more videos, especially race day ones 🤗

Well done on your first. The trick now is to not get addicted to going longer....... too late? hehehe Love your enthusiasm even in the later stages of the race. That's what will get you through when the weather turns bad and you're all alone, and your blisters hurt, and..... One small trick I've learned after blackening and loosing toenails - a week before the race trim them right back and file them right down so they can't catch on your socks, and make sure there are no seams pressing down on them. For a 10k or a half marathon it won't matter too much, but over the longer distances small things like that really make a big difference. And I'm so envious that you can eat a load right after the race. I can't eat much for at least a day afterwards, so I'm left to cope with living on beer for a day or so ;-) Looking forward to the next one :-)

Having followed your videos for a while, I found this one to help me face my first 50 km this weekend. A colleague of mine had to pull out three weeks ago, and I volunteered to take his transfer, literally 18 days before Ultra X Wales 50 km. I'm obviously a bit mad, my longest run this year to that point was one 10 km. I have done two 28 km runs in the last two weeks, the longest I have run for 42 years, I'm 61. I think this will be a massive mental challenge, but this video has calmed my nerves (a little). Thank you

Congratulations!! I'm amazed you were able to film as much as you did, I appreciate the effort and energy that must have taken! What a gorgeous place to torture yourself! My first 50k is in 6 weeks. Luckily it's relatively flat, because I'll only have been running 6 months since taking 5 months off over the winter. Watching you push through the doubts and niggles will motivate me. I hope you do another!! Was there anything you wish you'd done differently with food, gear, strategy?
@FloraBeverley4 жыл бұрын
This is such a wonderful comment, thank you! Although filming is strangely tiring (the only part of my body that still hurts is my right shoulder from lifting the camera!) it serves to distract me from the run, provide some entertainment and also I love looking back at old footage when I want to relive the experience. So the pleasure is all mine! :) I'm sure you'll ace your race. I will absolutely be doing another! I'm really happy with my strategy actually. I think I could have started without trackies, but I am very glad I didn't get cold, so maybe it was worth it. ;) Huge good luck with yours!! Vlog with ultra tips coming out next week xx

I ran my first 50K on my 50th Birthday (50/50) this year during Lockdown (and ran no further than 3 miles from my house) was 5 laps of the town... lots of elevation...honest Oh I ran each lap progressively (its on Strava) lol 04:47:04 ran another Ultra again two weeks ago with a better time ha ha.... and less fuel again...
