Many congrats to u on your run my friend! 👍🏽
Speedy. Great achievement.
Amazing run great video well done.
Thank you! 👍 Glad you enjoyed it. Wished the weather was better though!
Incredible achievement, well done bro!
Fantastic achievement.
Thanks so much! This was a tough one!
Wow Francois - just amazing - thanks for the blister warning, i have to admit to looking away!
Great result well done !
Well done! Great video too 👍🏻🏃♂️
Well done, really enjoyed the video. Thanks.
Great footage, always nice to have a memento of the event. Quality run too. I'm a massive fan of Injinji toe socks, I never run in anything else, zero blisters on Saturday. Toenails on the other hand....
I also love Injinji socks 👍🏻
I have a pair of Injinji's in the drawer as well! Forgot about them! Will be using in the run up to SDW100 this time! Thanks for the reminder!
Utterly incredible. Wow! X
Thank you so much! x
That's just brought back some amazing memories and emotions from an incredible day. Got my full money's worth by being the final finisher, so seeing alot of those places in the light is fantastic. Thanks for sharing your story 😊
Well done for finishing and completing the race!
Absolutely incredible!!!!! That has blown my mind mate! What a top result!!!! Kudos to you! 😎🤘🏻
Many thanks Ben!
@@CotswoldTrailRunner you are a absolute legend mate! 😎🤘🏻
A great video thanks so much for documenting the run! I’ve been wanting to do this for a few years but had to withdraw in 2018 - it’s still very much on my ‘wish list’! Awesome result - 19 hours WOW!!
Thanks so much! Glad you enjoyed! We had terrible weather but it was still a beautiful route and the Centurion team were amazing! Go for it!
Congrats on the run, I’m doing the 100k in September that seems a long way, 100 miles though great achievement 👍🏻
Thanks, the step up from 100k to 100 miles is only in the mind. The fitness you'll have. Good luck, it's a great route!
I have huge respect for anybody who travels 100 miles on foot. The flat 100 mile courses are faster than rugged courses, but in many cases the flat courses are harder on the legs because here is very little stride variation. I also see a lot of pavement on that course - that adds some difficulty and pain as well. Great job!
Many thanks for watching! You’re totally right, it was tough on the legs and feet (excuse the blisters but that’s the reality)! Enjoyed this one but also enjoy the variety of the hills 👍
Huge respect! How much did the weather effect your feet? Or would they have been just as bad without the rain? Thank you for filming it, phenomenal !
My feet were wet from the start until I changed socks at 70miles. It did have an impact but not as bad as other races I've done. I sensed the blisters before 'seeing' them so it wasn't too much of a shock! I think drier conditions would have thrown up other issues instead!
I did the same race, I am glad my feet weren't the only ones full of blisters! I should have stopped more often to sort them out, but I had a feeling of can't be bothered later on in the race. It might have improved my time :). What was the tape you were using on the blisters? Amazing result, well done!
It was just plain sports tape (no stretch). Just what I happened to have in my med bag. It was the right choice to drain them! Fine after that.
Thanks for sharing and well done. Such videos really help. I think this would be my first 100 miler so be interested to know what your training volume looked like for such a race? Thanks
Thanks Neil, my Strava link should be in the description, however I have had about 2 years of endurance running to build up (mainly on hills). This seems to have helped hugely. My longest training run was 40miles (see other video). Let me know if you have any other questions.
@@CotswoldTrailRunner Hi. Thanks for that feedback, really helpful. Will do. Cheers
@@neilsyard I'd definitely recommend building up to it; but also remember that just because it's 'flat' doesn't mean it's easier - you get to walk the hill...
@@timdarke1092 I live in rolling hills countryside but have a canal too, so i hear you! Thanks Tim.
Amazing , go on enjoy the life in full breath of the nature with your best ability . I would like to know when and how and what makes you do long run. I have been walking as I like to walk all the time and one point thinking to follow through walking path. All the long walk like London Loop(152 miles)/ capital ring ( 78 miles) / The Jubilee Greenway Walk ( 37 miles) / The lea Valley Walk (18 miles)/ The Jubilee Walkway ( 15 miles)/The Green Chain Walk ( 50 miles)/ 2x Thames Path Way ( 80 miles) now on 82 miles The Essex Way finishing soon. But with all of those walking I can't find courage to run though I would like to run. It seems to me my knee will betray with me and I may be unable to walk as I am walking now. Should I start running and build confident slowly ? What is best shoes for long walk and run . I have got Brasher boots but heavy for long walk and did not find comfortable. I have been using Salomon for last 2/3 (20 miles) walk don't think it is going to be lasting more. Can you recommend me please. Thank you very much.
Congratulations on a great run. I am doing 100k ending in Henley in September and am trying to work out the best shoes to wear. Looks like you were wearing a pair of Hoka Speedgoat. Did you feel you could have comfortably run it in road shoes given the amount of paved sections?
Hey, thanks for watching! Yes I think a lot of people ran it in road shoes, however there were two things that made me go with the Speedgoats.
1. The cushioning. - I prefer the support especially on road.
2. The later stages of the course (in the dark) were really muddy and road shoes would have been useless. This depends on the forecast in the lead up and on the day of course!
Best of luck, it's a great run!
@@CotswoldTrailRunner Thanks a lot, appreciate the insight. I think weather may well inform my final shoe choice and I'll probably end up in trail shoes given the time of year. I know the first half of the course relatively well, but the second half is a bit of a mystery so it's really useful to have your view on it
@@rob_ferguson No problem, the first half was nice canal path, tarmac and well kept. After Henley, it was open fields and forest paths so check the weather and maybe have a shoe change (if you want) at halfway.
I want to do this 100 miler how can I sigh up please help me
