[@katiemiddleton2353]

P.S. Thanks to Katie for only having a Wednesday evening to have her time and sacrificing the rest so I can go out and do all of this training. Thanks to Katie for constantly having the kids, getting them up on the weekends, changing them, feeding them, whilst I'm out enjoying the sun rise on a nice long run, having some peace and quiet. YOU'RE WELCOME!

Good luck hope you have a great run and a great day out. Yours is one of the best UK ultra trail running channels on You Tube. Cant wait for the race vid.

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Daniel! That's very kind of you mate. I am glad you have been enjoying the vids mate. 😊👍 I hope I can produce a decent performance and a video at the SD100. Thanks for all the support mate! 😎🤘

[@MihaiGoRunning]

Wow, you've had an incredible week of training! From the scenic 21K with Adam to the beautiful evening runs with the GTR gang and bumping into your pacer, Danielle - it all sounds epic. Your gear setup sounds spot-on, especially those toe socks for blister prevention! Best of luck smashing that North Downs Way time. Can't wait to see you at the start line for the UK Ultra South Downs 100 Miler. You've got this, Ben! 💪

[@BenNotley]

Thank you so much for another wonderfully encouraging comment Mihai! It's words like those that really help keep me motivated mate. I can't thank you enough! Roll on race day! 😎🤘

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Short shorts, perfect for what could be a long run in hot weather 👌 You've had a great training block & have totally got this Ben, enjoy the taper 😀

[@BenNotley]

I am hoping I don't suffer from chub rub but I will be packing plenty of lube just in case 🤣 Thanks for the support Martin I really appreciate it mate! 😎🤘

[@RunFreeandStrong]

Hi Ben, you've put in an amazing training effort and stayed healthy, and you're ready to smash your sub 22-hour goal. Would not be surprised if you go sub-20 🚀. Beautiful sunsets on your evening runs.

[@BenNotley]

Thanks very much for the motivational comment Reto! I hope I can put in a decent performance and reach the finish with a smile on my face. Roll on race day! 😎🤘

[@essextrails]

Well done Ben. Sure you have done everything you can to prepare for the SDW. Hope it goes well mate and, most of all, I hope you enjoy it.

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Pete! Can't wait to get on the start line now. I hope it's not too warm on the day but I am sure I can deal with it. Thanks for all the support bud. I hope you are well. 😎🤘

[@kierandale4977]

[@runwithfester]

Nice one

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Chris! 😎🤘

[@grahamcook6702]

Go smash it buddy!!

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Graham! Thanks for all the support bud! 😎🤘

[@markg99]

You're looking calm and ready to drop bombs 💪💪 I'm sure you'll have a great race again buddy. Best of luck! Have you tried the Speedgoat 5 in the wide fitting at all? My feet are average width so I got the standard ones but thinking about trying wide next time.

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Mark! Huge kudos to you in your Shires and Spires race mate. Cracking performance! 👏 I haven't tried the wide fit. I have pretty narrow feet so the regular fit suits me just fine. Thanks for watching mate! 😎🤘

[@tomharvey-run]

Great video Ben. Sure you will smash those goals 🙌🏼

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Tom! Looking forward to seeing your briefly at the start before you leave me in the dust 🤣👍

[@tomharvey-run]

@@BenNotley think you are mistaking my surname for Evans 🤣

[@BenNotley]

@@tomharvey-run you've got the same shoes mate 🤣👍

[@tomharvey-run]

@@BenNotley true, been hunting all over ebay for the legs too, no joy 🙂

[@BenNotley]

@@tomharvey-run just get yourself a red bull hat to complete the look 🤣👌

[@leerunsultras]

Don't need to say good luck your going to crush it. Where did you get that caffeine ginger stuff from.

[@BenNotley]

Cheers Lee! Can't wait to get on the start line mate. You can order them directly from caffeine bullet or xmiles and sometimes you can find them in running shops too. 😎🤘

[@timeonfeet]

🤞for the bucket hat return! Solid work on your training Ben, looking strong, you'll do great 💪 Those caffeine bullet ginger chews are really good, been using those too and they give a nice kick when you're feeling a bit groggy. Hope to see you out there on the day at some point. Will look out for the short shorts and bucket hut 😃

[@BenNotley]

Yeah I am highly considering the bucket hat but it will be the race day decision but I will take it in the crew car regardless if I start in it or not. The ginger roars have been a game changer. They do certainly give you a lift. Thanks for all your support Ben and kudos once again for your UTS! 👏😎🤘
