Well done for sticking with it Adam, really frustrating that but great you still used it for training and enjoyed the beautiful day up there on the Downs 👍
It was stunning - imagine if it was raining - a whole different game!
The highs and lows of ultra running! Really enjoyed this race re-cap. I think you did well to turn around your mindset there Adam. Looking forward to seeing your other adventures.
Thanks for watching. Off to snowdon this weekend but race v technical with some grade 1 scrambling so not sure how ill hold the go pro. We shall see...
Great video! I was there and really enjoyed the day- so good to revisit the route via RUclips. Didn't realise anyone had got lost!
Thanks! How did you day go? Better than mine.
What a great win! You mentioned that you ran this before and recalled how you felt then and now so much stronger! Awesome. So you missed 3 km. Hffp…. great mental training to push on!
Yes def felt stronger - it was one of my first ultras so Ive learnt loads and getting much better confidence - 50 is a tough one to pace as you get to the marathon milestone and the mental demons start playing a few tricks!
Amazing video. Seeing your content keeps giving me motivation to make video for my channel.
I'm really looking forward to the next video. Keep the content coming!!!
Go for it!
Nice race vlog, Adam! Beautiful places where you took us with this race! too bad you lost that 3 miles... nice music along the clip!
Shame but yes a stunning day - lucky we got the ☀️ thanks for watching 🤩
Thanks for posting the video and well done for sticking with it. That takes some doing to have a complete mind reset after the setback, to refocus and carry on when it would have been easy to think “sod it, I’m going home” . Nice one.
We came close - but always need a good training session 😃 thanks steve
Gutted for you Adam! I feel your pain, something like a wrong turn (which isn't always your fault) really hits the confidence and is hard to shake. Well done for pressing on and making the most of it. Bet your next race will be super smooth!
Next race is the Snowdon Sky Race this weekend so far from smooth 😂 I was gutted - even left my keys in the taxi on the way home - thanks for watching!
Looks like a beautiful day to be passing the miles on a picturesque course! Glad you didn't let the detour get you! Ultra runners are a tough bunch! Keep pushing!
Yes a stunning course. Lucky with the weather. Friends are running the 100 early June so will be good to see how they do!
Well done Adam for grinding it out despite the route mishap at the start. I heard some of the 9 dropped out because of it. Great to meet you at Alfriston…that was me on the door!
Cheers Ben - a classic race to say the least - thanks for your support and volunteering! Never give up!
Absolutely inspiring stuff boss! It really is great to see a ultra runner of your caliber getting the job done! Just awesome to see the determination and how you push through the tough times. Such a shame about the mistake and the time penalty and like you say slightly harsh for a 1 hour for 3 miles that near the start probably should have gone with 40 or 45 minutes. Despite that you absolutely nailed it boss! 😎🤘🏻
Thanks Ben - shame my legs were so trashed. harsh but fair!
Well done to you all for sticking it out Adam! I remember getting very confused when I passed you for a 2nd time, thought it must have been your twin or something, it was only near the end I heard talk of the ‘naughty nine’ at an aid station and realised what had happened 😅 You’ll have to return next year and put it right!
We were hoping they were telling runners as they went thru 🤦 we felt a lot better once the race started to catch up with us. A very strange day!
Credit to you for marching on despite ending up off course. It looked like a sunny day out on the trails as well
Thanks Dan - got proper sunburnt - lovely day out 🤗🤗🤗
Amazing job my friend! So cool!
Thanks 🙏
Well done Adam this is what happens occasionally. It happened to me in a trail marathon at Seaford. Very foggy day and about 30 runners all went the wrong way and ended up arriving at the start again after only 3 miles 😂 . What can you do, nothing you’re powerless - it’s a bit like that horrible feeling when you’ve just been flashed by a speed camera - that happened to me last week- shit happens! 😱😂
Yup shit happens - its was also trying to work out that it really didnt matter in the scheme of things but still fell bad - took some time to get over it.
Nice work Adam, It's good too see the perspective when things go right to shit but there is still a finish and good times. A lot of high level runners seem to either have amazing days or just completely ditch and DNF. It's good to see the balance.
It's also bloody nice to live vicariously through parasocial RUclips running buddies. I'm injured right now so I just sit back and watch the "RUclips running club" run instead 😂
Yes the real pros drop to save themselves for the next race...yes the race certainly went to shit - took me a while to get this vid out too
I really appreciate it Very nice video
It's my pleasure Thanks
I was one of the naughty 9, really gutting but lessons learnt. Great Video mate.
Ha ha - I was asked about my race performances this year the other day - got to say not great except the arc. Sdw50 will linger on 😂😂😂🥹
@@ultrarunneradam lol, yeah I still get slightly annoyed thinking about it! NDW100 next. What have you got next?
Well done Adam....shame about the time penalty...but hey-ho these things happen...👌👍👏👊
Thanks 🙏 they sure do - I’ll pay better attention next time
Instead of a time penalty I'd just run around the track to make up the mileage
You'd think someone would have noticed. My Garmin bleeps 'Off Course' at me when I run on the wrong side of the road, never mind 3 miles away 🙂
We heard a shout out but ignored it as runners were still behind us. Mine doesnt bleep but pops up on screen so I must have been another planet - once we pickuped the trail I guess I started looking at my watch - who knows.
The lady in the naughty nine was Sarah Hill, used to run for the forces with Kelly Holmes, runs a lot with Suzie Chan from Peloton and lives near Frencham pond nearish to you
Randomly I met her at the Shere 42k In august. She runs for la sportiva 👍👍 thanks for letting me know mark as tbh I’d forgotten her name again 🙄
What a disaster! that must have really messed with your head for the rest of the race. Beautiful day for it though at least! I am racing this weekend at night in the jungle and already worried about getting lost - watching this hasn't helped!!!
😂😂😂 How was the jungle?
@@ultrarunneradam The jungle was a suitably epic and a really brutal race! I did get lost, but managed a 2nd place overall. Next challenge is trying to capture the madness of that race in my film - going to be a challenge to edit but should be a good one!
I enjoy watching ultra but could you please provide a map for those of us who don't live where all of you do? Geographic illiteracy is easily solved with a continental map and a small regional one. Thank you.
I will try and it’s a great idea. My skills are limited but i will bring this into process. Where do you live?
badly signed then
Yup all their fault 😂😂😂😂
