Hey John, great video. See you at Ennerdale tomorrow, weather has improved but still flucking cold! I've not trained either to rest for the race. Sure I'll see you mate but if not, enjoy it & have a great race! You won't be last tomoz 💪 Hoping to do all classics this year & I won't pull a calf before Langdale this time 😂
Awesome video John. That is a bloody solid workout, inspiring & impressive stuff. You were working a lot harder than the gadge on the exercise bike on his phone 😆 Will they ever finish the roadworks on Aynam Road? I am sure PBS has a magnetic pull to it, I can never resist either...
First time I’ve seen that mace exercise. That’s out there, very primal looking. Duddon Valley was indeed a beauty of a day. I only done the short, wasn’t far of DFL myself, but i was losing my fell race V. Proceeded to piss down for pretty much all subsequent days so it was the best part of my trip 😂 Any advice for strength exercises that might give me hill legs? I was useless going up compared to everyone else.
Yup the mace gets your inner Viking fired up 😉 squats mate. Lots and lots of squats in which ever variation you like. I’d start with Bulgarian split squats and maybe a barbell back squat. Focus on form first, get the movement right and address any mobility issues then start adding weight and increasing reps. Additionally, get out on the hills more. However, that’s easier said than done ☺️
@@lakelandtrailrunner thank you. Having done some powerlifting I am both delighted to hear this (as form won’t be an issue), and disappointed, as all previous gains are long gone 😂
Fell runners doing squats is the mother of all knee problems, esp. ITBS. I heard you say you had knee issues in your videos for as long as I remember. I also saw you do squats in the previous gym video. Mate, just try removing squats from your gym workouts. Try more stretching and resistance band conditioning every other day instead, esp. 1-2 hours before a longie, and dynamic stretching/warmup just before you start running. Thank me later✌️

Enjoy Ennerdale. I always buy my hill running gear from Pete Bland, a great supporter of fell-running
Thanks man, yeah It’s a great shop :) 👌🏻

DFL ( dead fucking last) is a great honor. I’ve been there myself. 😂
Haha I’m adopting that term too! Hopefully I won’t be DFL tomorrow 🤘🏻
