    To prepare for the Centurion North Downs Way 100 in the Summer, I've been running parts of the route and filming them so that I know roughly what I'll need to cope with on the day! In this first video, I run the first 50 miles of the route which is also the North Downs Way 50 (happening in May).
    Enjoy and if you're racing it, good luck with your training!
    NOTE: I'm not affiliated with Centurion at all - I thoroughly recommend following the official route.

    You’re right about the box hill bridge. Hopefully if it isn’t flooded we can use the stepping stones as that’s where a photographer used to sit! Big effort with the route. Well done

    Great video Mike. Well worth the wait and really like the Google Earth visualisations. Both really help to identify with the route. I’m all set now for the 50 in May but will look forward to your next vid to help
    me prepare for the 100 in August. The effort you go into to share these are much appreciated!

    Thank you Mike. I'm also doing the NDW100, but time and location make doing a recce difficult. I'm sure this video will be helpful for people in a similar position for years to come, thank you so much!

    • @30somethingmike
      @30somethingmike  2 года назад

      So glad it’s helpful! I’ve probably made a couple of mistakes but at least it should give a good indication of what’s to come! I hope the training is going well. See you in race day! Ps I’m finishing the second 50 miles this week so should be online at the weekend 👍

      Well done!! I’ve heard that supposed to be a good course 👍 ah don’t worry, I’m starting to get nervous now too. The beauty of ultra is that you can walk up all the hills and eat as much as you want 😂 so there’s that! See you there 💪🏼

    Been using this video, plus the Centurion map + Google maps to help navigate my way around. Been doing the sections as a Recce for next May's 50. Very helpful.
    Am at Ashford Volunteering at the end of the 100, so will be cheering you on for that last 100m sprint finish I know everyone will be doing 😂

    Awesome video Mike! This will be very helpful in my preparations for the Omen Ultra in June. Looking forward to the next part of the route. Not sure I will have time to recce the whole thing myself so your video will be really helpful. Great work buddy! 😎🤘🏻

      @@30somethingmike it is very helpful mate. Really enjoyed it. I ran from Guildford to Merstham yesterday and the section between Boxhill and reigate is tough going. I enjoyed it though. Should have a video for that up tomorrow. Thanks for following my journey mate I really appreciate it. 😎🤘🏻

    @guzgrant 2 года назад

    Great context and reference . The idea of running the full 100 seems almost inconceivable to me. I’m running The Omen in June , which I understand shares a preponderance of the same route but much shorter and even that looms epically .
