Hi Billy, thanks buddy I’m doing just fine and feel very relaxed about things. I’ll do my best to make some relevant content. Cheers mate

Hey! Thank you so much for your lovely comment! Running is not an easy sport to navigate through and injuries is just part of the process. All the best to you in your journey too 👍🏼

Hey that’s good to hear they’ve helped you out! Fills me with confidence. Hopefully you can navigate through your injury too and come back stronger. All the best mate

That’s good Henry, maybe it’s just mine that are ugly as i would have chose the ones with the best discount on them 😂. Very comfy though

Hi, I’m sorry to hear it’s creeping back in, it’s such an annoying injury. I was suggested by a physio to work into Altras but that was when it was just a niggle pain. The reason I’m going to them is I do have weak feet, my toes aren’t very mobile and I think my calves are weak too so these should benefit me eventually. My arches are flat though where yours are high so I can’t say whether they will be good for you or not. They may not be for me yet but it’s worth a shot. I’ve been told to work on my form over this time as something will be off but I’ve got scans booked in and will get more advice then. It’s slow on the NHS though

@@StevoRuns I hope it works for you. Being injured sucks.

@SharaRuns it sure does. I hope yours comes good too. All the best

Mate, you will get there, good idea keep fit build your core. As you say you have a plan so all good. Got to maintain mental heath as well as can be a downer when you get a knock back but it will turn out good mate.

Cheers Sean. All positive here buddy! I’ll be with you for an ultra next year mate 👍🏼

Sorry for the delay. Thank you James, I do seem to have more issues than most but will always show the good times and the bad. I’ve still got a lot of learning to do clearly as I’m laid off now still with the ankle problem. Back to the drawing board!

@@StevoRuns you’ve gotta take the time off you need. Don’t stress about getting back too soon. Health is most important.

😂 okay. And I lived to tell the tale, thankfully.

@@StevoRuns why would you do that mate?

@@karmella5606 I wasn’t exactly thinking just recording and talking. Someone mentioned it straight away and they were cleaned. No biggie. Hope you found something positive from the vid. Thanks

@@StevoRuns Sure mate, all I do is running, one of the most positive habit in my life 👍 Just keep up and best of luck.

Yes that’s true mate, was really looking forward to challenging myself but there’s plenty of time to get them done once I’m fixed up!

Wise words as always, Henry. I’ll be sure to build up slowly after strengthening even though that’s what I feel i did this time but I obviously need to be stronger still whilst not running and aggravating any niggles further. Time for the bike for a while for cardio I think. Thanks

Was kidding myself hoping it was going away mate, wasn’t to be. Please think about next years one mate I would love to run round that with you if you fancied it or just to see you at the start if you prefer to run alone. See how things go 👍🏼

Hey, good luck to you too. Unfortunately, my tendonitis has played up massively after this run and am touch and go for Saturday. All the best to you though and hopefully I will be there too 🤞🏼

Cheers Kurt. I’m still paying the price for this run though my ankle tendinitis went to new levels after this one haha. I use the insta360 X2 camera and InShot for editing vids and thumbnails

I’m sorry you feel so rough! It’s horrible for most but maybe even more so for you with other health issues alongside it. After tomorrow, hopefully it will all start to ease. When the headaches and pressure goes away it all becomes a lot easier! Keep going if you can! All the best

@@StevoRunsThanks for the encouragement! Day 3 has been much better. My mood is stabilizing, but the body aches remain. Caffeine withdrawal is no joke!!

Sorry to hear that mate. It hurts a lot doesn’t it! I hope this could be helpful to you

Cheers man. It was tough run so next weeks race is gonna be brutal.

Thank you Helen! I hope your training has gone to plan. Come and say hello if you see my camera sticking up in the air 😂 all the best, see you next week!

Thanks a lot mate. To be honest this run has really hurt my ankle, not whilst running but the day after my tendonitis that I’m always managing has flared up badly. I’m so hoping it goes away in the next couple of days but i haven’t been able to run since. It’s so hard for me to get training right with my flat feet it’s a nightmare and stresses me out a lot. Let’s hope it fades out like it usually does! Hope your running is all going to plan 👍🏼

@@StevoRuns sorry to hear that mate, hopefully the tendinitis calms down 🙂 I assume your trainers help support your feet? When my old injuries flare up it stresses me out as well because I do S+C everyday and do everything to help my body to keep going so I feel your pain! Your do everything you can mate! All 👍 at the moment, will be just ticking over until I start training for the great north run 🙂

@michaeltownsend5981 glad to hear it’s going well mate, i didn’t get in the ballot for great north run, probably for the best actually 😂. Yes I’ve been wearing orthotics and took good advice about footwear and exercises etc but when reach higher milage it starts to play up. I’ll sort it somehow. Cheers buddy 👍🏼

@@StevoRuns thank you mate! And I got a charity spot as probably wouldn’t get a ballot spot 🙂

Cheers mate. Yes I personally think it’s fine to go for 24 when the time is right before your marathon. As long as you’ve built up it well and it’s not randomly thrown in, which I’m sure you know already. Just be careful it doesn’t do more harm than good and think about how long it takes to recover from them! This 30 miler, even though it was in my plan, is taking some getting over! My ankles really painful and muscles hurt for days after, I haven’t run since Monday and it’s stressing me out. so go with what feels right at the right time. All the best

thank you Stevo!

Ah man, that’s some severe reaction to quitting! At least it’s an eye opener to what caffeine is maybe causing and you will feel so much better once this all passes. I hope that’s soon for you! Good luck

Cheers Kev it was a tough one, I’ve needed some recovery days after that one.

Thank you Nigel. Yes a 50k race would have been ideal to be honest, I didn’t think of that at the time and it’s come round a bit quick. As you say, next time! All the best with yours too mate I hope it goes well for you 👍🏼

That’s 100% gonna happen 🤣

Hi James, cheers for that mate. I hope you’re enjoying running? People seem to really get into it when you find a good rhythm and do it for long enough that it becomes part of your weekly routine. All the best

Thanks Ashley. That’s a good shout focussing on the next aid station rather than counting down the miles. Do you have a water bladder on for the race or will 2x 500ml bottles be ok to keep refilling? Would be good to be the weight down. Cheers

​@@StevoRunsI use both cos I've run out of water in almost all of my ultras. You can always dump the water if you don't need it

All good mate thank you. Still off the caffeine except I have decaf now and do not have any old symptoms at all. Game changer! Been a few years now

@@StevoRuns cheers! Did not check if you uploaded an update video about your caffeine-free life! Inspiring to hear that you have been off caffeine for years. I relapsed last 2 days go( a friend bought me a coffee from mcdonald’s) I felt so high that day, but the day afer I was depressed and what not. Will find my way back to caffeine free life! Thanks for the update mate!

@@AhmedPuno it happens sometimes buddy, I took my daughter to Starbucks for a treat last week and couldn’t remember if I said decaf for my Americano, turns out I didn’t and I was buzzing for hours 😂, I just jump straight back to no caffeine but I know it’s easier said than done. I will do a life without caffeine video soon, good shout. Keep going mate you can do it!

Cheers Sean, body is feeling that one this morning.

Hi! Thank you very much. The plan has me tapering now, doing 40 miles total this week in 5 runs, one being fast, long run 16 miles. Next week, 30 miles with 2 being fast, long run 10-12 miles. The week of the race has 9-12 miles all easy then race. I’ll be resting after this and will play it by ear with some easy runs this week. I want to get to the start line as fresh as possible but will pluck sessions from the plan if I’m feeling good on the day. Cheers

Cheers Mark, the audio isn’t as good as the gopro I’ll look into a mic setup or just shout the whole video if need be, it’s a pain.

That’s a brilliant time sir, very well done!

Gotta be done ain’t it mate 😂

Thanks a lot Michael. Yeah no regrets so far mate, let’s see what happens from here 👊🏼

Glad to hear trainings going well! A heavy night throws you right off temporarily doesn’t it. My HRV and everything is knackered for a 2-3 days. All good fun at the time though ayy

Cheers Chris and good for you for doing it too for these last few years. I’ll probably be like that too as I’m not in fear of going fully back to how I was, so a toast drink etc would be quite nice here and there. I definitely love Sundays more now!
