      Thanks for watching Mark, I've very fortunate to have landed a job with a great team. 2023 has been one of the greatest years of my life so far. I've got some even more epic videos to come 😀

    That was a good insight into your new job Dean; looks great and well-suited to you. I’ve had my eye on that BTTF Toyota since I was a lad in the 80s. Haha. Thanks for sharing. Gav

      Thanks for watching Gav, wait till you see the video from my work trip to Kyrgyzstan… That place is next level 😃 I’d love that Hilux from BTTF, if I won the lottery (I don’t play it) I’d have one of those in my garage sat next to a Delorean. Hope you’re doing well mate

    This is great thanks Dean - I did the Cape Wrath trail this May and it brings back wonderful memories. Im also lucky enough to be doing the TGO challenge next year starting from Mallaig/Inverie so its a good look see on what to expect... basically you walked my first day!

      Thanks for watching David. I'm jealous that you're doing the TGOC next year, we started from Dornie when we walked it in 2022. All the best with your route planning for next May.

    What a great area to stage such a race. There’s something magical about it being on the mainland but only accessible via a ferry. Great job with the filming and congratulations on your career change 👍🏻

      Thanks for watching Jon. It really is a beautiful place, I love the fact that it's cut off and not easy to access. Hopefully the government won't go ahead with the diesel powered mobile phone masts on the hill side

    Fantastic video Dean, such a beautiful location for a race, would love to attempt something like this in the future.
    Found myself just smiling to myself a lot in this video, super happy for you, if anyone deserves this from all the hard work over the years its you.
    Im also partial to the Toyota, my fave movie car in those 80/ early 90s was the red (nearly alway red) Toyota pick up trucks, so cool.
    Here was me thinking you walked all around the course picking flags, when in reality you were leaning out the car door 😂😉
    Thanks for sharing this epic adventure

      Thanks for watching Mark, you'd love the Highland Ultra. With all the running and then camping you've been doing this would be a breeze 😂 Black Toyota Hilux from Back to the Future for me, I'd prefer the Delorean though. I wasn't being lazy, I was just conserving energy for the days ahead haha 😂
