  • TDS UTMB 2022 - RACE DAY. The training miles have been run and the mountains have been hiked so there's only one more thing to do to complete the series - to go racing! Having not raced in the mountains over this kind of distance for a long time, there were definitely some butterflies in my stomach as I lined up on the start line in Courmayeur, Italy. All that stood between us and that iconic finish line in Chamonix was 145km and 9100m of elevation, so how hard can it be...
    Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always - stay safe and keep on running!

    I’m not crying, there’s something in my eye!! Your endless positivity and enthusiasm is infectious and there was never any doubt you’d finish your incredible journey. I may never do anything quite that immense, but I am hoping to run my first ultra next year and your videos have been a massive inspiration. Thanks Loyd!

    Brilliant! So nice to put images where the dots were when I was following live online. What an achievement for you and Steve & so nice you finished UTMB and TDS with him. btw, surely that lack of CP/water on that 14er climb was a huge mistake by UTMB? Complete lack of safety for runners, especially in the heat and if the weather had been bad too. Shocking! Glad you both got through it & under 40hrs, smashed it! 👍🙂

  • @patcarroll280
    @patcarroll280 2 года назад +1

    Bud that finish nearly, very nearly, had me shed a tear. Absolute massive and total respect. Great effort and even more so what a wonderful display of friendship, love and support. You and The Pirate showed how far those precious things can take us. Chapeau to you all. An inspiration many many thanks Loyd

    • @Run4Adventure

    @rogerrichards8048 2 года назад +2

    Well done to Steve & you Loyd for toughing it out - I can’t imagine how it must feel with that combination of distance, elevation and lack of sleep. Hats off to everyone who even attempt to do any of the UTMB races.
    Hope Luke did OK & looked like the Xodus Ultra’s stood up well.

    • @Run4Adventure
      @Run4Adventure  2 года назад

      Thanks Roger 🙏
      Unfortunately it was Lukes first experience of the big mountains and maybe the TDS isn't the best race for that. The big climb in the middle of the race, in the heat was a massive undertaking. He made it up the climb but chose to call it a day. The good news is he's ok and determined to go back next year and finish it off! 🏃‍♂️⛰️

    Great watching your 2022 TDS video again. I did it again this year after my DNF at Beaufort last year. Despite being very sick in the woods before Beaufort this time I carried on after an hour at the check point. Made it to the finish line this time and loved the Chamonix finish. I'm glad we had -5 degrees in the hills this year, much better than how hot it was last year. Looking forward to more race videos from you. Bravo!

    • @Run4Adventure
      @Run4Adventure  10 месяцев назад +1

      Well done Mark for getting it done this year! It sure is a tough race and that decent down to Beaufort is ridiculous. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 🙏😊

  • @stevesalinda5270
    @stevesalinda5270 2 года назад

    Loyd, no exaggeration here, but definitely one of the best running POV videos I've ever watched. I've watched it several times now and the emotion still hits me when you exit the woods and Liga is there telling you to get some sleep now! You've captured what every regular average runner suffers through when they tackle an absolutely shattering ultra the highs, the lows the ultimate victory. One of the most courageous bit of editing when you showed the raw emotion in that aid station at night---absolutely fit runners so spent that they're all asleep--tears every time I watch this. Well done, Loyd, well done on your TDS victory and well done on this beautiful video.

    • @Run4Adventure
      @Run4Adventure  2 года назад

Thanks Liga for being motivation and voice of reason at the aid station.. I was like noooo don’t give up, have a rest. Phew… we’ll done guys!!

    Congrats again Loyd, you can really be proud of your journey and huge respect to you, Steve and all the runners on this epic race! Great job with that video which, i think, reflects very well all the differents states and emotions you've been through to reach your dream. I'm also glad to have done my little part of support at the cormet de Roselend (not sure you'll see the cornish flag super often, moreover raised in frenchman's hands ^^) and later at night too, a little bit after Beaufort and at the very beginning of the climb to Hauteluce. Please keep on making such an amazing job on the tracks and behind the screen, it's super inspiring for many people ! 🙏

    That looked absolutely brutal Loyd, respect for completing. When you're entering the "red zone" both physically & mentally and still have the strength to film & commentate, whilst at the same time nailing a positive narrative.
    Obviously the views are out of the ball park, but when you're running on fumes in that heat, on 20 min cat naps, appreciation of the views gonna be the last thing on the mind, even the mind of a seasoned warrior ! Well done

    Does it count as doing the race if I was tracking you & also napping & eating cheese...? :P
    Joking aside that was epic man! Best running channel out there & couldn't be more proud of you guys for crossing the line, had tears in my eyes & the hairs on the back of my neck stood up. Got a sense of just how hard these races are & no matter how well training has gone it tests you to the limit. So impressive to see you push through the rough patch after so much climbing & being awake for so long.... beyond epic!! Loved the whole series in Chamonix really awesome content & it's inspired me to get out there.
    Enjoyed a well-earned rest & stay safe!!

    That was EPIC, what an adventure and great video. Love the bit when you were moaning to Liga about distance between checkpoints or did you see what we've just had to run through...makes the finish even more sweet. Would be so boring for you if it was easy.

    I already said it on the other social media channels my friend, but that really was awsome. Massive respect to you and Steve for completing that race and not forgetting Liga on support, you all did a sterling job. UTMB looks like a magical, but also soul breaking place, and you can't help but be inspired to want to race there. Congratulations on the race and the video, hopefully catch up with you in January at the ARC.

    Congrats to you and the team. Really enjoyed the video as it reminded me of some of the amazing views on the route. You weren't the only one going to sack it off at Beaufort, I nearly did too and would've done without my Wife's support. I was just leaving that ski lift after having a kip when you guys got there. It was a life saving little sleep that one as I'd been falling asleep whilst walking.
    So glad you all finished. 👍

      The short sleeps made a big difference, I was the same as you, I fell asleep a couple of times walking! It was a crazy race but I'm glad I ticked it off 😊

    A perfect moment in time is how I described this year's UTMB week to my partner Michelle. Awesome memories. Completed the OCC, meeting so many great people, tracking people I have followed on insta, youtube etc including yourself and Steve. Gutted for Ben Parkes and Sage Canaday, but ultra trail is a journey. I encourage anyone who has not yet undertaken trail running to start the journey. The community I have experienced in the Trail running scene is off the chart, from 5km right through to ultra distances. Awesome.

    Congratulations Lloyd! Massive achievement. It was great to see the journey including the mental battle. I think negative thinking can destroy you, and it takes a lot to flip the script once you entertain it. I could see it with your comments about it being too hot, too steep, not enough water etc and it snowballs under extreme fatigue and lack of sleep. You should be proud that you pulled yourself out of it, and got it done. I am sure Steve and Liga must have been so valuable to get you through it. Incredible grit and heart....The battle is always against ourself.
