Well done Harry, that certainly looked steep. Is there a Strava segment for it? If not you should create one and call it, Jog On the Steepest Street in England 👍😀

[@thisisjogon]

Apparently there is, though the quickest time is just so quick one has to question if someone might have been behind a steering wheel.. Who knows Chris.

[@littlejogger95]

Whey! Happy to see my hometown’s Lincoln Steep Hill mentioned! It’s the hill that never ends! 😃

[@thisisjogon]

Hoping to visit one day

[@lachlancooke]

Nice, these consistent uploads will bring those subs in!

[@thisisjogon]

Cheers so much Lachlan, you have to just love making the videos regardless of who watches, which I do. I appreciate the support very much. Harry

[@jensmith3719]

you really cheer me up Harry, i love your up beat style, you should be on stage,

[@thisisjogon]

Cheers Jen, appreciate you watching

[@jimlaidlaw8925]

Good job you’ve had some hill training! Wednesday race as a lump at 9k !

[@keithhannigan8507]

Just found your channel this week, absolutely love your natural and entertaining presentation!!! The content is great, well thought out, varied, filmed so well and your care towards your subscribers is charming!!! Well done!!!

[@thisisjogon]

Keith, comment of the week. Thank you so much and welcome. Harry

[@Alex-uj4zf]

Looking quick, Harry! Next stop, PB town.

[@thisisjogon]

PB town here we come, I'll thank Vale Street in my speech when it happens

[@UDR-Channel]

SUPERB narration dude. you have skills !! great channel. subbed

[@thisisjogon]

Greatly appreciated dude. Thanks for subbing it means a lot. Harry

[@MihaiGoRunning]

Beautiful clip! Fully watched and subscribed, my friend! Nice run, Harry! ✌

[@thisisjogon]

Thank you 🧡

[@simonbamford4045]

Things like this are fun. And that's what it's all about !

[@thisisjogon]

Thank you

[@adventuredogs8773]

What an awesome street for interval sprints! Quirky indeed, love the leopard print house 😄

[@thisisjogon]

The leopard print house was mad

[@northernninjarunner5506]

Try Porlock Hill It climbs approximately 1,300 ft (400 m) in less than 2 miles (3.2 km) up onto Exmoor. This part of the road is very steep hill with gradients of up to 1 in 4 and hairpin bends. The climb is simply terrible. It’s a real leg breaker.

[@thisisjogon]

Looked it up, looks crazy.

[@barnabybeere1557]

Fantastic! Going to have to make a trip into Bristol to have a go at this hill!

[@thisisjogon]

You should Barnaby, if you're in the area it's just quite a unique experience Hope you're doing well Barnaby Harry

[@davidcooke9733]

I was visiting my son who lives in Bristol and we decided to tackle Vale Street together. You're right - it's steep. He managed two runs, I managed three. Thanks for pointing out these challenges. Shaftesbury next target.

[@thisisjogon]

That’s brilliant David. Quite the street, thank you for watching Harry

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

A leopard print house! Worth the trip for that 😂 Good job with conquering Vale street Harry 💪🏃

[@thisisjogon]

The leopard print house was the highlight

[@majorskies7091]

I used to walk down this street sometimes on the way back from school... Never up it lol but I did take some pretty step streets nonetheless to get to school too.

[@thisisjogon]

Amazing Major Skies. What a walk. Thanks for watching Harry

[@kerrypowell38]

I thought the hills in Brighton were steep, but that was something else! Very well done! 👏

[@thisisjogon]

I cycled up a few hills in Brighton a while back - there are some that definitely get your lungs

[@kerrypowell38]

@@thisisjogon there's a particularly steep hill near me that is also lined with multi-coloured houses. I'm definitely going to do a Vale Street-style sprint up it!

[@61js]

Steep Hill Lincoln is near my neck of the woods. That beast is 420m long, apparently, and cobbled to boot.

[@thisisjogon]

Would love to visit it some time

[@ChrisBrown-dy8ts]

That does look steep.got a few where I live in Scarborough, Ling Hill , Prob the steepest , Also Moor lane , Paradise Hill,

[@thisisjogon]

[@aidannewton7621]

I feel as though I can never again complain about the hills in my local Parkrun

[@thisisjogon]

Ha Aidan, I will also try to bear this in mind for the next hilly parkrun, the big difference is that this is just over very quickly, long hills are something else. Cheers for watching Aidan

[@roybarratt5609]

As a heart faliure patient I nearly died just watching Harry 😆 I think they should have a running up Vale St world championship

[@thisisjogon]

That would be quite the event Roy

[@colinsawyer9391]

More great content Harry ... but can't help thinking that you missed a trick here "running DOWN the steepest Street in England" 🤣🤣

[@thisisjogon]

Next week's video.. 'how I ran through someone's living room at full speed'

[@colinsawyer9391]

@@thisisjogon in this hot weather we will set up a drinks station as you pass through 👍Always looking forward to the next one 🎬

[@shaundrew3600]

Another brilliant video Harry! love the editing with two Harry's in one shot and the spiderman pose at the bottom of the street was another highlight. have to ask did you get the crown for the strava segment up vale street?

[@thisisjogon]

The two Harry's marked either an advance in editing ability or a chance to unsubscribe 'we really don't need double of him' Apparently not, this has been looked into after. The fastest time was just so stupidly fast it's difficult to believe it was done by someone on foot. Cheers for watching Shaun 🧡

[@davidjuson5608]

Stirring stuff. That's the sort incline the RSPCA patrol to stop people driving goats up.

[@thisisjogon]

Next video: 'I raced a goat up Vale Street'

[@billyclark5453]

As a bristolian I need to do this but as a gashead I don't venture too far south of the river

[@thisisjogon]

Maybe you could go in disguise Billy. It's a pretty cool street

[@mandkstuart]

That is steeper than the hill on the Frome 5k route!

[@thisisjogon]

It made me think about some of the Cotswold hills Mark - I suspect there are a few worth filming at

[@kylestephens9593]

I can barely run 100m on a flat surface in 17s, you are running up the mother of all hills in the same time! God damn, I am so unfit :D PS House's spots looks like a mix between Jaguar's and Leopard's print. Jaguar's have a spot in the middle and the form is more elaborate.

[@thisisjogon]

I did wonder Kyle about the print and was thinking I wonder if this will be some other big cat.. Thank you for watching Kyle

[@--Taz--]

Did somebody ask you that day while filming what are doing and why are running this street like a madman😄

[@thisisjogon]

Thought that they might, however they're probably used to people coming just to see their street, it's such a mental road

[@toranshaw4029]

GCN did a cycling challenge up that hill, so I was wondering that perhaps you could do a collab with them... cyclist v runner?!

[@thisisjogon]

Toran, it's definitely a possibility, thank you for watching

[@Simon-ph1nf]

Just invented a new local Olympic sport, congratulations :)

[@thisisjogon]

I do wonder if the locals are sick of people coming to their road and going 'wow this is so steep' I'm sure a bearded runner shouting about it wouldn't have helped that

[@DevonPixie1991]

you should give the steepest street in wales ago - apparently steeper than Vale Street

[@thisisjogon]

Yes, it is. The Running Channel did a piece on it if you wish to watch. Couldn’t do it for this one as it’s not in England. Thanks for watching Amy

[@tarekfezai560]

You said the street is about 100 meters? Thanks

[@thisisjogon]

Worth it checking it on a map, made this video a fair while back so I don’t recall exactly

[@DanielRobertspiano]

I thought of taking a drive on that road for fun, till I saw 4:06! Nah.

[@thisisjogon]

⛰️

[@snazzycracker2]

I would suspect the local run clubs go up there a fair bit.

[@thisisjogon]

I imagine so, and they probably barely notice it's even a hill - Bristol has some crazy slopes

[@snazzycracker2]

@@thisisjogon Ooh believe me they will notice it, I wasn't suggesting it would be easy for regular local runners :)

[@garymitchell277]

Good man Harry. Should sing the So Solid Crew number one hit 21 seconds to go as your running up it. 🎶⛷

[@thisisjogon]

If only I'd known beforehand, what a song. Hope you're well

Is there a strava segment for the street? Record probably 5 seconds 😂

[@thisisjogon]

Yes, it’s something so completely absurd that it’s just questionable. Thank you for watching

Yeah GPS errors
