  • Trail running with GB athletes at Wasdale Head in the Lake District. A great spot for hiking, we chose to run a 19km route that took us from Wastwater up the shoulder of Great Gable, over to Kirk Fell, followed by Pillar, Scoat Fell, Red Pike and finally, Yewbarrow. With views over to Scafell Pike, this was an incredible experience, though also absolutely shattering. Great to finally do a touch of van life in Wrynose Pass in the JOG ON van.

    Graham Rush actually features on one of the JOG ON podcast guest episodes (Ep 47): podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/jog-on/id1413486978
    He has a fascinating life story, from hopes of being a professional footballer to running for his country. It's well worth a listen on your next drive/run.

    Ohhh wow you really managed to.capture exactly how tough this sort of running is. I.recently ran a 50k in the Lakes with 2.7k of vertical and it was very similar to what you experienced here. 7 hours it took me to complete and its just soooo different to anything id done before.
    Superb video !!

    Another entertaining jog Harry. With enhanced scenery.
    You are a great example, but if I ever take that particular route it will be wearing hiking boots. The 26 metre elevation from the Flats to the third kilometre marker on Southampton parkrun is enough for my tired old running legs.
    Keep up the good work.

I started working the harvest season 2 days after writing that, working 66 hour weeks and walking up to 12 marathons a month on my step counter so little time and energy for adventures. The season is just finishing now and I can hear the mountains calling me. Time to dust off the running shoes 🏃🏻💨

    • @thisisjogon
      @thisisjogon  3 года назад

      I’ve enjoyed the odd down in my time, but these were mildly absurd. Just the steepness, required a constant tense of the quad which lead to real leg fatigue.
      Hell of an adventure.

  • @jamstaa69
    @jamstaa69 3 года назад +1

    Tiring but soo good isn’t it.. Just did my first “run” to summit of Snowdon via Rangers path, and down the Llanberis path.. Lot to be said for a good power hike and walking poles 😬.. legs felt so much better on the way down when you finally get to flatter sections and you can let the brakes off a bit.. didn’t stop me tripping due to tired quads and taking a dive though, probably my first “this is gonna hurt” fall whilst running.. now nursing a bruised rib and an offending stubbed purple toe.. I’d do it all again tomorrow… if I could 😂 without the dive hopefully.

    • @thisisjogon
      @thisisjogon  3 года назад

      Great comment - and a great anecdote. I’ve fallen on Snowdon the last 3 times I climbed it. Likewise, the quads just not functioning quite the same after a few hours.

  • @snazzycracker2
    @snazzycracker2 3 года назад

    To be fair to you, you were running with far more weight in your back pack than they were. It's a lot easier to run light in the mountains. You need a high lactic acid threshold too, and they will have developed this over time, you won't have even with lots of mountain hiking etc, it requires speed over terrain to do it, or a big up climb as you discovered.

    • @thisisjogon
      @thisisjogon  3 года назад
