The First Step | 100 Mile Ultra Documentary

[@noahbrink8654]

Fantastic to see a 100 mile ultra filmed in Australia's gorgeous landscape.

[@marlinweekley51]

Ill be 70 this year, still running - for now, but as i come nearer the end of my running its great to see courageous young people like yourself coming along. Good luck in all you do. 😀🏃‍♂️🏃‍♂️

[@jacksonholtham3442]

That is amazing, I hope I'm running at 70! What an inspiration, thank you!

[@RuttsGK]

Inspiring Marlin, all the best.

[@ropersix]

My dad's 81, and still runs a few times a week. Not fast, and not too far (5 miles or so), but he's an inspiration to the whole family, as I'm sure you are to your friends and family. It works both ways, so keep it up as long as you can!

[@franzellecarmon3550]

I'm also turning 70 this year and ran 60 miles last week. Shooting for my first ultra...not sure of the distance. Keep up enjoying life.

[@infratuna]

Most interesting and inspiring about this video was the support you got from others.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

It was epic!

[@marcscammell9796]

Another one just stumbling across this, I’ve got my first 100 miler in 2 weeks and just completed my longest training run going through the night for 9 hours. Very inspirational and also useful advice to take from you 👍

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you! Enjoy the miler. Don't seek comfort, enjoy the discomfort! Good luck!

[@hedges200]

Great video, I stumbled on this as I am just now getting started running and this was a true inspiration to what people are capable of.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

You are awesome!

[@cm5537]

Massive respect man, I've came from couch to training for a 50 miler in September. What motivation I get from these videos, all the best for your future Ultras

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thanks so much! Enjoy the run, amazing effort.

Really enjoyed watching this Jackson. What a fantastic example of the struggle athletes go through and the will power it takes to triumph. Well done, keep at it!

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you so much!

[@CotswoldTrailRunner]

'A soul searching journey' is an accurate summary of these beasts of 100miles we take on. Huge congrats and super cool to see your journey from start to finish. You've been stripped down and now know you can get through it. Onto the next ay! Best of luck in the next one! Hit me up for any advice. Peace.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thanks so much. Completely agree. Will do!

What a great story, so glad I found it on KZbin tonight

Thank you for taking the time to watch it!

[@SnowysOutdoors]

What a ripper of a vid... your achievement and how the story was presented was absolutely top-notch. Congratulations mate! Laine

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thanks legends!

[@garethlewis6633]

When I saw you halfway through I thought, "fark, he's not gonna be able to complete this...", and then you made it!! Well done mate, true grit. Keep it up.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thanks for checking it out. Appreciate it!

[@garethlewis6633]

@@jacksonholtham3442 Enjoyed it man. Keep running, never stop.

[@nicholasm.tilley4289]

I have recently took up running, within the last month I lowered my mile time from 10:32 to currently 7:57! I also do my long runs (7 miles) in almost exactly one hour. I plan on doing my first ultra next summer (2024 not 2023 summer).

[@GillibrandPeter]

This is honestly so good. I’ve got an ultra coming up in August and I am SO pumped now. Inspiration.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Epic! Thanks so much and good luck!

[@brianmclane9684]

Great effort and equally great video. From "I was in 3rd" during the 1st checkpoint, to "my body was brutalized" at the last....100% accurate. Thank you for sharing this to us non-elite as it is helpful.... Keep grinding!

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you! Appreciate your time to drop a comment and watching the video! Ultras are hard, but so much is learnt from them.

[@yannd9475]

Incredibly inspiring video!! Super impressed that this is the first video on your channel, can't wait to see more content! Congrats on the run mate

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you so much. I really appreciate it!

[@aarondavis6155]

Fantastic film. One of the better ones I have watched recently. Gets me excited for my first hundred that I'm signed up for!

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thanks so much, really appreciate the words. Enjoy the hundred!

[@10minuteguidedmeditation75]

That's awesome man. I am working on getting into ultra marathon shape and look for inspiration like you.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you so much! Keep getting after it!

[@JustinGLockwood]

I just stumbled across this video. Truly inspirational. I'm doing my first marathon soon and you've inspired me so much to conquer it.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you so much! You will conquer! Keep pushing.

[@matty8hiker]

Great video showing what it's all about. I like to dabble in the occasional ultra but around 50k is enough for me. Flinders ranges such a magnificent place and captured really well in your mini doc.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Thank you so much. Alex did a great job of capturing how beautiful it was out there. Appreciate you watching the video!

[@timedwards1921]

Great job! Enjoyed watching this from Vietnam while I’m preparing for my first ultra.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

[@MADDOGUNIT84]

Thanks for sharing mate, great vid! Got my first 50k this year, I think that’s far until I see this sort of stuff haha. I’ll try and remember that when I’m struggling. Cheers

[@jacksonholtham3442]

50k is a serious effort. Everyone's journey is different for different reasons. Keep hammering, you're awesome!

[@sydneyhammonds6571]

I just moved to Australia form the states and have really been getting into running. It is so inspiring to watch you run and see your journey! It is phenomenal what you've done. I'm currently training for another marathon and would love to get into ultra running. Thank you so much for sharing your run if there is any more advice that you have feel free to share!

[@tommyle628]

Bro, as a ultra runner and specialty running store owner, I suggest you switch from Hoka One One to Altra next time, Altra Trail shoes have wider toe box, and you won't have any issue wearing them with Injinji Socks from the beginning to the end of a Ultra. Let's try the Altra Olympus 4 next time, you will love it.

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Hi mate, i'd love to chat about this more! Where can I contact you? You can find me on instagram at @jacksonholthamcoaching

[@thomasmorison8093]

Good job mate. did you have plantar fasciitis after this or was the arch pain just temporary?

[@jacksonholtham3442]

Arch pain just temporary, lasted around 2-3 weeks.

@@jacksonholtham3442 Good to hear 👍🏼 I have severe arch pain after my first 50 miler a couple of weeks ago. Your quick recovery gives me some hope 😂

[@thecrowfliescrooked]

Hokas. Maybe they’re too soft in the mid foot?

[@jacksonholtham3442]

I think so, it's something i'll be looking into.

[@tiefdruck1]

Ever thought about using shoes with a wider toe box? Your great toe definitely needs more space. There are specialized manufacturers (like "A....") who offer more natural foot shape shoes...

[@jacksonholtham3442]

I am looking into it for sure! I think i'll be making a switch.

[@tiefdruck1]

@@jacksonholtham3442 When also switching to shoes with less support, cushion and heel-elevation start and progress slowly. Your body - especially your lower calf and your achilles tendon needs time to adapt.

[@tiefdruck1]

I personally like Anton Krupickas running style. Does not look fast but seems to have zero negative impact.
