Amazing man!

AWESOME!!!

Thanks for the bird's-eye view on your journey, James. Always relatable, inspiring and interesting. Cool stuff 👍🙂

Beautiful. You could get sentimental for less 🥲 Perfect choice of music!

Very informative especially for those new to the sport. Thank you.

This video brought tears to my eyes James. You've been such an inspiration to me in my own running journey. Watching your tips videos, and the races you do - I absolutely love your charisma and love for the sport. Your videos and editing are so well done and expertly crafted. May your journey be one filled with adventure and good health. Keep going James!

Super Inspiring Journey, James. 😊

Love your content James! I am hoping to run my first ultra (probably 60k) in 2025. Partly because of your videos and the motivation I get from them. I hope to run a sub 3.30 Copenhagen Marathon firstly though. Are you running that again? If yes let me know so I can come and say hello ;) I need to cut off 10 minutes of my PB from last year though. Not sure whether it is possible or not but with a lot of MAF leading up to the 16 weeks of specific training, I hope I will ;) Do you upload your training programs anywhere? Cheers and happy new year

elite level plodding sir

Thank you for making videos, James! Your videos have always been among my favourite on this platform. Nowadays RUclips is overrun with people trying to make running into a full-time job and their videos reflect that; many people just stick a camera in their face and record themselves rambling. Your videos however, which this video also highlights perfectly, are much more focused on the joy of running in beautiful places, the philosophy behind running, and the connection by sharing the journey with other runners. It gives your videos a feeling of authenticity and inspires to go out and explore rather than merely focusing on pace and time. Best wishes in the coming year(s), and I am looking forward to many more race videos!

Very cool james 🎉

Thanks for sharing your journey!

Congrats on the achievements, James !

happy days✌🏼

You are inspiring in your fight for the 100 miler here in Great Britain I think you are doing so well. Inga dk

Well done JAMES, it was awesome to watch you run this race so hard and challenging too. I think you did it the right way, and completing is nearly not to understand, congrates from me. Inga dk.

Maybe really protecting your eyes and maybe ski glasses. inga dk

I will highly sugest that you wear glasses for your next race if you race in Sweden again its a very windy route, Inga dk.

Yes the consequensy of such a brutal race is often this by the imune system and thats just a fact but really nailed it at last and having the two swedish guys to chat with was great for you too. I think you did it great out there in the cold James.... congrates with the ring and the result....Inga dk.

Thanks never thought to use the Garmin pacepro feature will be trying that next time out

Well done on completing a very tough race! I did my first 100k in May this year. First 58 km very lonely - couldn’t get chatting with anyone. At the aid station I wanted to go home but decided to keep going. As I left the aid station I got chatting to a guy called Andy. We walked (he was injured, I was knackered) and chatted for the next 13km and it saved my race

Great recap, already thought that I had already seen the Kullamannen one, but still nice to hear the story after contemplation. I would recommend you to to come to Finland and run NUTS Ylläs Pallas organised in July. The 200 miler is a bit extreme, but the 160km one you'll see the best parts!

Come to Bornholm. Hammeren Ultra will give you challenge and beauty.

Well done for finishing that beast, James. I love running but I'm a fan of being able to see and eat too 😂😅. This one is not on my bucket list...

Absolutely smashed it James. Great reflections. One to avoid I think 😂 Too dark for too long but hats off to you 🏃🏻‍♂️🏁

Yes, you missed beautiful views. It’s so beautiful on that coastline. Good work 💫

Welcome to our home race kullamannen. It's a different kind of race :) and yes the trails are very nice during the day to

Mental! Maybe try a 5km now 😅

Always interesting to hear your post race reflections!

Really interesting and relatable - thank you. There seemed to be a load of road running (or at least hard-packed trail). What type of shoes work for this? I didn't get the impression you were crewed, and you didn't mention foot issues, or drop bags (with shoe change options). I am generally fine with the mental side, but (for example) the first half of the SDW100 hurt my feet, and I could see this going the same way!

Very inspiring

The eye thing is crazy, Courtney Dauwalter had the problem where like 90% of her eye sight went

Got something big in mind? Like a UTMB or Bayswater?

That eye problem must have scared the 💩 out of you. Glad to hear it recovered OK. Can safely say I won't be signing up for this race but I enjoyed your videos about it 👍

Keep it up! Big inspiration for me!

Bit of a silly question, but where is your red/orange hat from? Looks really cosy and I'm looking for just that for a winter race 🙏

Pretty insane to have no food on offer for 7 hours of race (longer for the slower runners), especially given it's a loop section aaaand they had food later on.

fair comments that reflect my experience too. what it lacks in vert it makes up for in other ways. being happy running trails at night with a head torch is a big advantage. it is clearly stated in the race guide that most aid stations are liquid only. come over to Sörmlands 100 next year for a more Centurion experience.

Enjoyed your videos alot, cheers. Trying your luck for utmb?

Great breakdown. Sounded like absolute hell 😂

Hey mate, what hilll that are big enough did you train on?

What an incredibly well put together video. You’ve condensed the equivalent of a thorough book on the topic into a half an hour! Well done 👏🏻

I have never been so proud of some one i have never met! Inspiring stuff, thank you for documenting!!

Love your content man, ive been a casual runner for the last couple of years. But decided I want to get into ultra. Got my first Marathon in Brighton next year, then hope to do a 50/75k in-between that and taking part in this 100km in 2026! Your content is really motivational & .inspiring! Thanks.

Congrats!! Also, red carpet finish -- fancy! 😄

This was excellent. Signed up to my first marathon in May and want to progress to an ultra in the years to come.

It’s amazing you still have the energy for making content during this gruelling race. Well done

Hi James...GREAT video..👍👍 I ran the race as well and barely managed to finish the race in 31 hours struggeling with just reaching the cut-off times...🙃 First +50K was very tuff due to weather condtions so really great that we did not have to struggle with strong wind durning second half of the race. Turning 60 next week it's a hard fact of live that you loose power each year once passing your prime but if the joy of running remains it's definately a race to consider..🥳 Regarding fuelling at the aid stations Kullamannen/UTMB Organizers must be able to improve. Simply not good enough that they state Näak products are available and when you turn up it's not the case. Because of similar experience @Kullamannen last year I brought plenty of extra gels this time around but talked to several other runners struggeling due to lack of fuelling. Should be obvious that it's equally important for 'cutt-off runners' to be able to obtain proper fuelling. Merry x-mas to all runners and hopefully we can look forward to some great running in 2025..😎

Very good advice, especially for beginners

as a beginner, i wish i did do research and spend money on some good shoes. i recommend maybe $100 to $150. you don't have to go buy alphaflys as a beginner, but you should learn your feet. do not just go out there without researching, and in cheap shoes, that will result in a bunch of shin splints and other injuries. get a gps watch, not an apple watch. compression shorts, vaseline, headphones, phone, heart rate monitor, shades.
