Thanks so much. I think my legs won’t feel fresh again till sometime in Nov 🤣

Brilliant! Well done 😁

Thanks Tony 🙏 I’ve been lucky in that I’ve been able to use the channel to my advantage. I’m not going to let this one person change how I go about my running 🏃🏼‍♀️

@@racheld1844 That's the spirit Rachel, never give in! 😁💪👍

Thanks. All I remember is how hot it was that day. Well done on your visit too! Especially on the win Ryan 🎉 Amazing running. We still watch all your videos but have stopped leaving comments on most channels now as ‘he’ often comments too and it’s just easier to stay away and out of sharing that space. Keep up the great content though, we still love sitting down on an evening and catching up with everyone’s uploads 😁

Thank you 🙏 How did The Wild One go? I was listening to Brett and Andy’s Running the Red Line podcast and they mentioned it on there.

Hi Stevie. Thanks for your comments. Shame you found my channel through this specific video but it’s one I had to make as I felt it was the next step to not staying quiet. The amount of supportive comments on this (and the previous video) have been incredible and really helped. Things still being sorted behind the scenes but the best thing is getting caught up in some massive training sessions to get me ready for autumn 🍂 🏃🏼‍♀️

@racheld1844 You're welcome. And the support you have received is a testament to how many are against your tormentor and his behaviour. I will subscribe to your channel, and watch more of your videos now. x

@@stevieroger7478 thank you 🙏

Thanks Marc 😁 definitely looking forward to seeing if I can get this one ticked off 😬

Your point is?

@@racheld1844 Where's the video evidence of her harassment?

Thank you 🙏

Hi Debbie. Thanks for coming over last week. Hope you had a good run? I guess I’ll never be completely invincible but having spoken out makes it much easier to speak out in the future. Great to hear you picked up one of the proviz tops. I keep looking for the white short sleeved version to be back in stock in my size, but it’s been unavailable for months 🙄

​@@racheld1844I did have a very good run! I got the highest age grading I've ever had, so very chuffed! Xx

It’s not what I’d directly thought about but I did wonder if there were alternatives. I wouldn’t rule out any (legal) solution to make sure this stops. Thanks for the suggestion though. I will keep it in mind.

Thanks Marc. Never thought I’d be in this position when I started the channel but I’ll see it through 🙂

Thanks for your thoughts. They were all very valuable points. Yes, hopefully it’ll put closure to this once and for all. I know it’s raised a few points for myself with regards to privacy, entrants lists and not speaking out at the time when these things were happening. I know, all in hindsight it’s easy for me to say but I didn’t think it would have gone on so long. That would be great if you were out helping on the 100. Volunteering is something, in the near future I’d like to get more involved in. Do you think you’d like to have a crack at the 100 at some point?

​@@racheld1844 If you volunteer at a Centurion 100 mile race, you can get free entry to a 100 mile race the following year. I volunteered at the TP100 (Thames Path 100) earlier this year so I can get free entry next year (3rd May 2025). I'm still unsure if I want to do 100 miles - I'll probably give it a go for TP100! Not sure I'll want to do *two* 100-mile races next year, so deliberating on volunteering, and thus entering, the A100. As you can tell, I'm not a natural volunteer lol. Just don't like paying to run and am very content running by myself for the most part.Thing is, for a 100-mile race the aid stations and support becomes mega-important. Sorry - didn't mean to go on a ramble lol. Thanks for your videos and looking forward to the future ones. Once again, all the best for your training.

Thanks Jason. I’m hoping to keep running for many years to come 😁

Hi Rob, thank you. I was testing the water a bit with the first video, to see what kind of reaction I’d get. It was all so overwhelmingly positive that I felt comfortable with releasing a bit more info. There’s still a lot of information that I’ve not said but I don’t want that to alter any outcome from what the police can do. It’s also come to light other things I’d not been aware of. Everything I’ve seen so far from making the last 2 videos has been nothing but positive 🙂

Thanks Enoch. Malvern was just one of a long list of things that have been happening. I’ve reported every single one and together they all paint a picture of someone who is quite clearly not intent on leaving me alone. Ignoring didn’t work so this was my next step to stamp it out. As for fitness for longer miles. I feel a bit the same. I’m covering more miles but feel less fit. Marathon training gets the best of both for me but having reduced the faster stuff (still doing one or two speedier sessions a week) I do find that it’s getting harder to run at my old easy pace. If your training is still going ok, I wouldn’t rule out giving the 100k a go 🙂

I like that comment. They are not runners. I agree 🙂

Thank you both 😊 I’ve seen nothing but positivity and encouragement with running and RUclips…. apart from this. Unfortunately it’s been something I didn’t ever think I’d have to go through but I don’t think this person will have the nerve to say or do anything again.

Thanks Donato. Unfortunately I noticed he’d left an untrue comment on one of your videos a while back.

Thanks for your comments Matt. I can’t say I’ve heard of anyone having to deal with anything negative through running. It goes on I’m sure, in the background but never first hand from my point of view. It’s felt like I’ve gone from zero to everything in a flash. Prior to this, I’ve not felt the need to avoid evening training alone or go anywhere I didn’t want to. I just think this is my sport and I’m doing it my way. Although I have the channel which I talk of races and training, I’ve avoided using things like starva or other media, to give me that privacy to keep my usual training routines safe. Regardless of what’s happened, I’d still like to keep myself safe on that score.

Thanks so much Cinthia. Out of all the people I’ve ever met through running, not one person has ever made me feel uncomfortable. Even all the years of training alone I’ve never been in a position where I’ve felt threatened. I know it’s out there, I just hadn’t had any experiences or witnessed anything for myself. I completely agree Stalking is a scary thing.

Thanks Steve. I’ve watched all the A100 videos out there (several times 😁) Can’t wait for me to be the one running and filming it.

Thank you 🙂

Thank you 🙏 Hopefully I can pick up the best prize in October 🙂

Thanks Roy. Hope you’re keeping well. My parents love to watch your videos. My dad was the one who asked about filming over on the new mappleborough green houses off Far Moor Lane 😊

Thank you. It’ll be my hardest block of endurance but hoping it’ll be enough to get the 100 mile in a day buckle 🤞

I’m not sure where my original reply went Geoff? It seems 4 or 5 replies were wiped off. If you didn’t see my original reply, I did write you one 😁 I’m actually feeling much better about heading off to races now. One thing these last couple of videos have done is give me the confidence to speak out.

Thanks for your support Eddie. It’s not been much fun wondering if I was going to see this person at an event. All my regular races, he’s been there and I’ve avoided some for that very reason. Although I felt worried at Malvern, I now feel the complete opposite. That’s why I’m not hiding my races anymore and happily share the events I’m planning on doing.

I think I feel safer now than I ever have. Not only with all the wonderful support and comments from the videos but equally I wouldn’t stay quiet if anything was to happen again.

Meant to write action

Thanks for your support 😊

Thank you for your support. Unfortunately this person has been at all but 1 of my races this year. Plus entered all my usual events. I decided to miss some of them because of the off chance he’d be there (and he was)

I’ve had to re-write some replies as RUclips seems to have erased some of them. Not sure if you saw it before it went but just that I had replied 😊 Training’s going to plan but all the hard stuff is yet to come 😱

@@racheld1844 Glad to hear! Plus, my opinion, but training through summer is sometimes almost twice as successful for races in cooler weather. I struggle in the heat though 😂

@@divinist - one reason I never run an autumn marathon. Far too hot to train fast in the summer 🥵

Thanks James. Yep, really looking forward to getting stuck into some longer miles in the next few weeks. A couple of events planned to help get the volume up too 😁

Thanks Chris. I’ve got so much I can share with the training. My biggest problem is finding the time to film it 🤣

It’s been a journey for sure.

Hi Debra, I’m glad I’ve spoken out and kept the police updated with all the details. In hindsight, I wish I’d said something at Malvern but I froze and then I was just too cross to call him out. I just wanted to run and not think about it. I carry a camera at races to film so if anything was to happen, I’d just point it in his direction. I actually wore my camera on my pack that day but he was so sly in what he did, I didn’t catch it.

Thanks Mark. Definitely looking forward to doing the 100. I booked it up at the end of last year so it’s something that I’m really excited about…. although I probably won’t be saying that at mile 70 😁

Thanks so much Christina. I’d seen his name was on the Malvern entry list so I was already on my guard. Being wary of every event hasn’t been easy this year.

Thanks Stu. As well as other channels getting comments using my name, I had noticed some indirect comments relating to my channel on some of your videos. Anyway to try and get me to see he was lurking.

Thanks Nick. Still working through getting this all sorted but t’s been such a boost to read everyone’s supportive comments.

100 isn’t as bad as it sounds (well it might be) … 26+ miles on the Malvern Hills is a different story 🤣

Not sure where my original reply went Tim. RUclips seems to have chucked some of my responses off this feed. But incase you thought I hadn’t replied, I had 😁 I saw you at AV yesterday, by the time I was free to come over, you’d already gone. I should have know you’d have bolted minutes after finishing 🤣… I’ll be quicker next time.

Police are classing it as malicious harassment and stalking. I’ve had messages and threats from unknown numbers and from fake Facebook accounts. Messages to me and messages to my partner and threats to send messages to my family and friends. I’m so glad people know as it puts the onus for this person to just stay away.

Very sorry to hear about your experience. Everyone has the right to feel safe running. It is a joy just to get out and enjoy a run. Hope this nightmare is soon sorted for you 🙏🤞

Thanks Paul. I’m determined as ever to get as fit as I can for Autumn. Probably need to tweak my diet a bit, but everything else is on track. I had wondered if I should stop making videos too but I decided that I’m not ready to do that yet and that this shouldn’t be the reason I should stop.

Thank you for your support 😊

It was a worry making the first video but making it public has made it much easier. I wouldn’t be afraid to say at any event,if I saw this person there. Thanks for your support and kind words 😊

Hi Richard, I’ve had to re-type out some replies as some seem to have disappeared. You might have seen the original reply, but if not, thanks for your comments. I mentioned all was going well but Rory needs to fix his knee sharpish or training might be in jeopardy to get enough miles in 😬

@@racheld1844 ahh no, I didn't see it - but thanks for taking the time to reply again! Glad all is going well for you now - and yes, fingers cross Rory's knee sorts itself out. I did wonder why I'd not seen him around for a while!

Thanks Gary. Don’t fancy giving it try then 😉

​@@racheld1844 ha, I get bored doing 10k races!
