Fantastic achievement! I’m doing this next year with my mate (over two days). Really looking forward to it!
@Ijustkeptrunning Жыл бұрын
I spoke to a few people on the first half that we’re doing the 2 days. I would be tempted to do the 2 days one year, and make it a bit of a running holiday weekend. Sounds like a great way to tackle the event! Good luck in your training when it starts 👍

Cheers Ben, recovery is going well and legs feel much better, it’s just the pesky blisters that are causing a bit of discomfort still. Thanks again for watching mate!

YES MATE ..... Incredible to finish 100km that is some achievement!! 50km and 100km races are on my radar for next year. I cant believe you took your shoe off after 80km, I was like how will he ever get that back on? Wouldn't be summer without a bit of rain...hey. Well done again mate beautifully captured.
@Ijustkeptrunning Жыл бұрын
Thanks Stephen, just about recovered now 😂. You should definitely get one booked in, I think 50km is a good distance to start, i found training for 100k is quite punishing, so I’ll stick to 50ks for the time being. Thanks again for watching 🙏🏻

Congrats on a hard won finish! What a gorgeous race. Looking forward to your upcoming races! Have you covered what you do for recovery? I typically run a 50k or trail marathon every 4-6 weeks during the non icy months, and need to up my recovery game.
@Ijustkeptrunning10 ай бұрын
Thank you Kelly, It definitely was a tough one. I need to document a bit more than I do on KZbin (recovery etc), but sometimes life just gets in the way. Yeah I think I’ll stick to a couple of 50k ultras and some marathons next year. Not sure I’m ready for another 100k just yet 😂 I should have another video up in a few weeks when I take on the Gran Canaria marathon next weekend 👍.

100k is awesome. Set goals, work up, and they are doable. It's as much about head as legs. Got to be mentally as well as physically strong.

I must have missed them, looking at other videos, I think they must have got loose just after I left PS 5 😂. Shame as it would have been good to add them into the video. Well done to you for getting it done too 💪!Thanks for watching.

Huge congrats!! Amazing achievement, both mental and physical. I hope your legs are starting to come around! Now that you've done it, is there anything you would have done differently to prepare for this event? PS: make sure you show off that medal to as many people as possible, you've definitely earned the bragging rights lol
@Ijustkeptrunning Жыл бұрын
Thank Chloe, you’re right it definitely was a mental and physical test for sure, and learnt a lot about myself! What would I do differently? 🤔 I found that after my long runs I was too tired to run for a few days, I think next time (if there is a next time that is) I’d spread the miles out over a week in training rather than concentrating on just long runs. Other than that I think training went pretty well but no matter how much you train, running 100k is always going to hurt 😂. Thanks again for watching 🙏🏻
