That date going beyond the mountain in the opening scene is delightful 🙌

[@StephenJReid]

That flying date was a nightmare to arrange took the planes all day to get the giant balloons into position 😛

[@patriciareid8826]

I remember a lot more snow on the summit over 40 years ago in 85'F at base. Thank you for taking me with you today.

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks for coming along 😁

[@_shane_7272]

Love all your videos - thanks for taking us along. Just back from Croagh Patrick this weekend. Didn’t quite run it tho 🙈

[@davidpoots8362]

Love the way you remember to have fun while you run, good one

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks David! The fun is the whole point 😁😁😁

[@frozenmist-w4k]

The grade is spot on as usual after previewing the flat profile clips. Entertaining as usual. Colin

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks Colin! I’ve got a fairly quick workflow now for getting the colour done. Glad you enjoyed it 🙂

[@James-ov5xr]

[@StephenJReid]

Thank you Virat 🙂

[@phillcardiac]

The BNMR is one of the best races in the UK. Done it a few times - defo enter it and do it

[@TravelRunner]

Suffering succotash! Rolling an ankle on a decent sucks! I've been dealing with coming back from a rolled ankle from 5 weeks ago. Ugh. Great video, Stephen. Super fun to watch. I loved all the drone footage. Looks like a super fun trail to ascend. Have fun at the dentist!

[@StephenJReid]

Ouch! Heal well. I’m still feeling this one a similar amount of time later. And it’s always my left ankle too! I’ve torn ligaments in my left ankle several times so it’s permanently weak now 🙈 Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@ScotlandsMountains]

Fantastic stuff - really enjoyed this 👌👍 hope your ankle was ok ATB Murray

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks very much Murray! I’m going to be back in September doing the Ring of Steall race which I’m planning to vlog. Gotta explore more of Scotland! 🙂

[@Elstan24]

Great stuff! So Ive missed what is the little house on a top? Ive just came back from there and there were flowers, treats and a photo of a lady. Please advise

[@StephenJReid]

It’s an emergency shelter, used to be part of the old observatory

[@JB_FLYA69669]

Great video you have inspired me to go here thanks

[@StephenJReid]

Enjoy!

[@allye5949]

Tooth, ankle … hope the wasn’t a third catastrophe. Thanks for the video.

[@incognitoaudio6424]

Enjoyed this. Just wondering if you have done Benvenagh yet?

[@globemaster67]

Great video! Hope the ankle is not too bad

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks! Ankle was sore for a few weeks if I moved it the wrong way, although was able to carefully run on it ok

[@martharunstheworld]

Great video as always!! Just tell people you're a hockey player now, Steve! :)

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks Martha! haha I know a guy who is a physio for an ice hockey team and he says they are "just held together with tape" because of all the injuries 🤣

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Great summit views as normal 😂Nightmare rolling the ankle on the descent, can't believe it's your 1st Munro, 1 down 281 to go 🥴

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks! I’ve a lot of catching up to do! Think I’ve only actually been in Scotland about 5/6 times ever

How do you rate the Hook's over Salomon? Definitely like how light they feel and the cushioned sole on mine.

[@StephenJReid]

I really like them for long distance runs, did 19miles in them on Tuesday past and no issues.

[@shinertom142]

Epic Steo’ … how you getting on with those headphones?

[@MATIvmr]

@@StephenJReid amazing how great it looks

[@StephenJReid]

Thanks! I do a colour grade pass over it all as well and fine tune every shot. Adds at least an hour to the edit, but it’s worth it.
