You are a beast Goran and not only are you an amazing runner, you're also filming as you go and for that, I give you serious applause! Running is hard enough but filming as you go is another level. Hit me up, let's go on a run together somewhere beautiful.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks Zach 😊 yeah that would be awesome!

[@draslonaxxno.9985]

Love

[@jenniferwerezak4165]

Love the sense of community 👏 😍

They don't talk to us. 😔

please try Tor des Geants next year! By far the toughest and beautiful at the same time

[@stephenbickerstaffe1062]

Jesus... I started running two years ago to lose weight and couldn't manage 500m without needing to slow down and walk a bit. I'm running my first half marathon on Saturday, and in training I'm doing 8k at 46 minutes, which is bad by everyone here's standards though I'm crazy proud of it and excited to keep going. Stuff like this is super inspiring, makes my challenges feel so much more possible!

[@slodoco]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing your story! How are you doing these days?

[@TheUnlazyWay]

Congrats Göran, what an insane achievement!! 7390m of vertical gain, that's mad!!🤯 Oh and I'm moving to Sweden in September, we could collab!

[@ReubenStrickett]

This is the Collab we knew we needed, and are gonna get 👌

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks Jonne!! Ok cool were in Sweden are you moving to? I'm from Sweden but I live in Moss, Norway now. Anyway would be super cool to collab in some way in the future, I love your videos! 😊

[@jcoterhals]

I for one would like to see that.

[@jkoperski9925]

Whuat! I am surprised to see you here, Jonne, but also not surprised. x) This is great. We're all community, I guess the silent audience as well. We are watching and cheering for you. Kudos and greetings from Germany.

[@TheUnlazyWay]

@@goranwinblad I'm moving to Stockholm, not too far from Moss! Let's be in touch in the near future😎

[@marlenecornelis4482]

I was there too! I ran the 25k with 1800 vert in 5:58 hours. It was my second trail race ever and it was BRUTAL. Congrats on finishing the 100k!! I will be there next year for sure.

[@goranwinblad]

Ok cool, yeah that looked like a great race as well congrats on finishing such a brutal race as your second trail race! Thanks 😊

[@brendan5675]

Even though this was recorded a year ago, I found myself fist pumping when you crossed that finish line. What a truly phenomenal achievement! Well done, Goran. You're an inspiration.

[@Loukie69]

This is incredibly inspirational. I love the emotional honesty in which this this run (climb more like it) has been recorded. The mind is an amazing thing, both a tool for conquest and self destruction. I'm really glad that you pulled through Göran. I like to think that when you pointed out a mountain top and said 'that is what we have to climb' (or something like that), you were referring to us, your viewers, and not just the other runners, as I think you know by now, you are never running alone, we are all with you, even if it is after the fact (cheesy, I know, but true nonetheless).

[@olivialiebl8910]

It made me so happy to see you make it to that finish line. Congrats :)

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks Olivia 😊

[@MMerbird13]

Thank you for taking us on the run with you, this is such an amazing feat and it's so inspirational! Congratulations on the finish, you deserve it! Hope you'll get well rested to tackle the next challenge :)

Thanks May very glad to hear you found it inspirational 😊

[@jmax9782]

When the going gets really tough it's the love we have inside us, for the one's we love, that gets us through. Great job, mate!

So true! Thanks 😊

Hey Göran, congratulations on finishing this impressive ultramarathon! I really enjoy watching your videos, work and motivation.

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks Ben, really glad to hear you like my videos 😊

[@Donnie__Darko]

First: Göran, congrats for finishing the race, this is just impressive! WOW!! Second: I probably won‘t ever run closely the distances or toughness of your runs since I‘m just not so passionate about running but I have to say thank you for being an inspiring, motivating and positive person who sets himself new challenges. And honestly, this is what me and the world needs…

[@goranwinblad]

Thanks for your super nice comment, makes me very happy to hear! 😊

Well done!! What an achievement and I am always so inspired to watch videos like this.
