↓↓ Would you give this challenge a go? Or have you got any challenge ideas you’d like The Running Channel team to take on? Let us know in the comments↓↓
Felt so sorry for you Anna. I guess it's hit you harder because you're so sociable! I just keep running every day, a minimum of 5km a day. I want to get up at sunrise next year on the longest day and go to bed at sunset! Not sure I could do this one though.
I saw the Beau Miles video a while ago and have wanted to give it a go since, maybe i should give it a go one weekend. I do have a lot of tasks that need doing.
When I first saw Beau's video a few months ago I thought, "I'm going to do that!" I haven't yet and I'm glad to have been reminded of it. My circumstances have changed in the last few weeks, I'm spending much more time alone and sometimes finding it harder to "see the potential of a day." I also really identify with what you said about "choice paralysis," this will be a great idea to try out when I have one of those full days on my own. I've already picked a day and put it in my calendar. Really timely, thank you Anna, and well done!
I tried it a few days ago, didn't even know about the challenge. Completed 10am til 9pm which is 12 runs doing between 1km-1m. Wasn't too hard but kinda inconvenient as once you get back home you can relax for about 40-45 mins and back out :D Also did it on the hour every hour too.
1. You're awesome; Awesome Anna. 2. To be a Harry, your scarecrow needs glasses (round ones). 3. I am sure your bagels tasted better than they looked. 4. What song were the birds singing? 5. Maths?! That is more difficult than running the 24 miles. 6. You're awesome.
All of Beau's videos are brilliant. He's got an infectious optimism and outlook on life. He's got a few other interesting running videos on his channel as well which I would recommend everyone checks out.
Beau's "Mile with May" video, walking that same block with his new daughter May a couple years later is very sweet, and funny if you've seen his 24 Hour challenge video all the way through.
Well done!! Crazy!!! I would find that hell. Funnily enough, I just finished reading, "Pedestrianism" by Matthew Algeo this week. It was a huge sport for a few decades in the 1800s. Ada Anderson did 2,700 quarter miles in 2,700 quarter hours at the end of 1878. I think she didn't take Sunday off, but other walkers did. Around the same time, Peter Van Ness tried to do 2,000 half miles in 2,000 half hours. 1,718 half miles in, he got a gun and shot his trainer (hit his arm) when he tried to make him carry on. The Police let him carry on instead of arresting him. In 1907, at 61, Dan O'Leary did 1,000 miles in 1,000 consecutive hours. The health risks to people doing such truly insane things were fully apparent in how they looked and acted, and it seems to have been a pretty grim spectacle at a lot of events. Personally, I would have needed 24 hours just to put the tent up!!
I don’t know why but this is by far my favorite video on The Running Channel! The voiceover , and seeing more of Anna’s personal life makes it a pleasure to watch 😃👏🏻 Please keep making more of those types of videos.
Incredible camerawork and music to go with your video. I was reminded of the game 'stardew valley' throughout given the beautiful outdoors, shift in day-night, constant busy-ness and the wonderful pup.
So inspiring, love the fact that you guys are keeping up the positivity even in the hardest conditions, you reminded me how much I do complain about being busy while I can just reorganize myself better to do more , couldn't thank you enough for this favour. I'm a bit struggling at the moment to start running again after the lockdown my performance dropped significantly and i'am bit disaponted, any ideas how to overcome that mental and physical wall
Sorry to hear you are struggling. The best advice we can give is that you are not alone, we all battle physically and mentally when running. Please check out our video all about self doubt and how best to cope with it: ruclips.net/video/uMf8NWUSFjA/видео.html Hope this helps!
Brilliant. Well done, Anna. What a great idea. I did a virtual event called P24 - The longest day. Participants had to run the minimum distance of 1 mile, on the stoke of each hour, for 24 hours. Running just before, and after the hour to gain more recovery time was strictly forbidden. Each run had to be logged on their facebook page to make sure there was no cheating. I ran 5k for 17 of the 24 hours and managed 65.9 miles in total. Thought it wouldn't be easy but it was actually much tougher than expected. I'd finish a run knowing there wasn't much recovery time before the next run had to be started. I vowed 'never to do this event again' but time is a great healer so I might enter again. Well done once again and keep up the awesome work.
This was brilliant, Anna! I knew you'd do it and I knew you'd be up for the challenge. I felt like I was out there running with you, and even though it was hard, it still looked like you were having fun. You must have felt so proud of yourself for completing this challenge!
I really enjoyed this just as I did the Beau Miles video a while back. Oddly, I was thinking "why not go for a marathon" when you mentioned it. I love this concept and feel like I need to do something similar. Perhaps a shortest day marathon is on the cards ...
Hey, The Running Channel! I discovered your channel by researching on how to do a half marathon. I started my training at the start of quarantine (I'm in Australia, Melbourne) and today was the big day. I did the half-marathon today with a time of 1:37:27 (4:38km/pace) and I'm 18 years old! Honestly, if it wasn't for these amazing videos and constant inspiration from you I don't think I can do it. This was the longest I've ever run and hoping next for a full marathon but today just a little rest :) thank you again.
That is so great to hear, so glad our videos have helped you out with your running journey. This is only the beginner, can't wait to hear more about your running progress. Well done, enjoy that rest!
As a mom of 4 (ages 8, 5, 4, and 13 months) I LOVE the quote at the end. There is certainly enough hours in the day to get everything done, so long as you make the time for them. I once said to someone how I buy chicken on the bone because I then use the bones to make stock for soup etc. They replied back with 'how on earth do you find the time to do all of that, I barely have the time to open a box of chicken fingers for dinner!'. My response was 'I don't find the time to do those things, I MAKE the time to do them!' My husband and I recently started a running group in our area of town that had no running group (there are lots, just all on the other end of the city and we were getting tired of driving 20km+ to go running with a group). The amount of feedback and turn out (20+ people every night) we've had has been amazing! SO many people telling us that they had been looking for a run group in our area - but my question is this, why did it take a busy couple with 4 kids to start a run group, when everyone who has come out has wanted this so badly as well? If you make the time to do the things you want to do -- it will always happen. Thank you for this video. I'm really inspired to try this!
Great stuff! Beau Miles is a legend. I was lucky enough to interview him on my podcast (The Trail Runners Experience) a few months ago. Very smart guy.
Well done Anna I enjoyed the video. Impressive DIY skills 🤔 Even though you say you were exhausted you still look quite lively. And is that very scary scarecrow working
Congratulation Anna I’m actually thinking of trying the challenge in a few weeks ( just have to get it planned ), and thanks for reminding me about a tent I actually haven’t thought of that. And true the challenge is tough even that it’s just a mile every hour, but people forget that it’s tough specially because you get all those breaks so it’s harder to keep you warmed up all the time and keeping the rhythm/flow and ofc also tough on the energy front
I would hate this challenge. I have had several jobs with military that kept me up all day and night. This challenge would have me crashing hard. Good job Anna.
Loved this video Well Done Anna - your challenges always inspire me to do something new and you cracked me up with the math. After seeing this I’ve decided to run the virtual Lands End to John O’Groats Challenge over a number of week’s obviously as I’ve been running for 10 weeks now but I love it. thanks for the great work you do - quite simply you rock!
So glad this has inspired you to sign up to such an epic race. Wish you the best of luck with it, and please keep us updated on your progress would love to hear all about it!
Congratulations Anna! For me, getting organized, getting things done and staying fit and motivated have been difficult tasks for the last few months. Watching your videos sure helped and I am thinking about some kind of challenge to do in the Fall. You are awesome!
Great video. I've not tried the mile an hour challenge as yet but I do enjoy solo 24hr races/challenges, I did the Virtual Solstice 24 challenge last weekend managing 112.8 miles. That time early morning when all the birds start singing is a lovely time to be out 🙂
I love watching your running vlogs, Anna, they’re always so funny and inspiring at the same time! I would think the lack of sleep would be worst than running 24 miles in a day. But then again, I have never ran more than 14 miles in a single day before. 🤔
Challenge idea: Try and complete as many of the different strava activities you can in one day (There are so many!) Who ever does the most different ones, wins? :)
#1 massive challenge, massive Kudos earned too. They say running twice in a day is hard!! I can't imagine how shattered you must have been. #2 what a great video. Your warmth, curiosity and playfulness shines through, creating a welcome antidote to the glum news and general craziness of the world today. Just the thing to help get through the challenges of this weird situation we're all in. Thank you! 😎👍🌟The sentiment at the end totally nailed it.
Thanks for sharing this grueling exercise with the world. I know that I watched it with rapt attention and rejoiced with your every win, every checked box, every running session completed! You showed us the possible & completed the improbable! Jolly good! (as I imagine your country mates might say)! A wonderful experiment: thanks so much!!!
Wow Anna!!! Well done ..👏 It's so inspiring to see this video..It shows how much time we waste and we could do lot of things,if we put our mind to it..A very productive video indeed...Thank you so much!😊💕🙏
There’s a new challenge to have a crack at before the year is out! Really enjoyed it, and I love the idea of a maths test to finish it off. Thanks for creating such a great and inspiring watch 😃
Brilliant, I loved this, I'm new to your running channel, I'm an old and just getting back into running, you guys explain every thing really well, thank you.
Great Video, Thank you :-) for your hard work. Don't worry about the maths lol... Im a homeschool mother and have managed to teacher my math up until now, age 13... but I was shocked how hard its been lol.. Ive had to learn along the way and I thought i was good at maths lol
Lovely stuff! How long did it take you to recover? I was excited to see you have a video reviewing books, which I've missed. Read a couple of Adharanand Finn books, which are ace.
Thanks for the inspiration! I did this with my neighbour here in Leipzig, Germany last weekend. We started at 4am. I found the time between zipped by too quickly and jobs stretched out over several between times. Still, I now have clean windows and no weeds in front of my house. The last hours were tough with regard to sleepiness and stiffness.
Y'all inspired me. So I gave it a go. I live on the side of a mountain so to avoid loads of hills I ran as many miles on a track. Couple thoughts. The Day's high temp was 36. This killed me! Add the fact that the track is black, man that was draining. I love running early morning. I felt like it was always half past! Got loads done in between the runs but I asked wife, mom, and kids so have loads more not yet done. Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Here in pei Canada on a Sunday morning watching this video and thankful we have people like you to remind us of how great life can be during difficult times.
Thanks for this and well done for completing the challenge. I watched the Beau Miles video a few years back and was immediately inspired to try the same. Sadly (or perhaps luckily) minor setbacks on several occasions meant I had to bale out before even starting, so I never got around to it. I'd always thought a mile every hour would be easy, but your experience suggests I was significantly under estimating the challenge. Perhaps I'll try a 12 hour stint first!
Running at night is the best part of working graveyard. And now, thanks to the pandemic, it's pretty much the only good thing about working graveyard, since now grocery stores are no longer open past 11pm.
Anna - Fabulous, Awesome and what a lovely little guy Hugo is - I always look forward to my running channel video, I just finished my 12 hour shift and this was a great way to wind down with a smile. Thanks 🙏👟👟🐶💕
Great video Anna and The Running Channel! I think the challenge in itself is by no means easy especially with the sleep deprivation( I would struggle 😂) Your videos are amazing especially during these difficult times, content is spot on. Whilst there is the lack of social interaction for runners at the moment your videos provide great motivation. 👏👏
Well done Anna 🙂 this has gave me a brilliant fundraising challenge, Im taking part in the great North run and need to raise money for a charity and I've been looking for challenges to help my fundraising, will do this, on the longest day 👍
Did a modified version when I first started running earlier this year. 3 mi an hour in under 12 hours. Never ran 26.2 mi in a week at that time, much less in a day. Boy, I learned the "increase your mileage gradually" advice the hard way, my foot hurts for a while and I couldn't run for two weeks😂 yeah, big dummy mistake but still a fun thing to accomplish
Hey Anna! You inspired me to give this a shot during quarantine! Twice around my block ended up being about 1.25 miles, so I ran that every hour until I did a marathon. I'd never run like this before and I definitely came back to your video for motivation. 21 hours later (and 43 laps around the neighborhood), I'd run my first ever marathon! Might make myself a tinfoil medal to commemorate the occasion lol
@@runningchannel I think I'd have fun doing a half (never run one of those either until yesterday)! Maybe work my way up to a full... I'm moving to England so maybe I'll see you out there once races start up again!
Reminds me of running the Endure24 (cancelled this year - Boo Hoo!). Love trail running at night and especially just before and during dawn when the atmosphere is magical!
👍👍good stuff Ana. Sunrises are the best but I'm a early riser. Maybe try a progressive week run. Day 1 one mile / Day 2 four miles, keep doubling the day number so by day 7 you have a 14 mile run. Gives you a 55 mile week, just an idea
This is so awesome! Congratulations on your 24 miles in 24 hours! So cool & fun! 🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️🏃♀️

Do the david goggins 4x4x48! 4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours
Anna, this is the vid I mentioned on Twitter ruclips.net/video/ENGXgcLqD4U/видео.html
I saw the Beau Miles video a while ago and have wanted to give it a go since, maybe i should give it a go one weekend. I do have a lot of tasks that need doing.
I might give it a go.
this is starting to become one of my favorite running channels, fairly new runner and I love these videos :)
Ah thank you so much, means a lot!
When I first saw Beau's video a few months ago I thought, "I'm going to do that!" I haven't yet and I'm glad to have been reminded of it.
My circumstances have changed in the last few weeks, I'm spending much more time alone and sometimes finding it harder to "see the potential of a day." I also really identify with what you said about "choice paralysis," this will be a great idea to try out when I have one of those full days on my own. I've already picked a day and put it in my calendar.
Really timely, thank you Anna, and well done!
Wish you the best of luck trying out this challenge and hope you can get some of those tasks done! Thanks for watching
I might try this but a 12hr version. Don't fancy night running in a city 😂
Go for it!
I tried it a few days ago, didn't even know about the challenge. Completed 10am til 9pm which is 12 runs doing between 1km-1m. Wasn't too hard but kinda inconvenient as once you get back home you can relax for about 40-45 mins and back out :D Also did it on the hour every hour too.
Suppose you could treadmill? I like the reading during part of it.
or adapt it to however many daylight hours you have where you live
Best part of a 24 hour event for me is the hour or so from when it first starts to get light to the sun appearing on the horizon. It's magical.
So cool watching the world wake up!
I enjoyed seeing two deer 🦌 yesterday morning as the sun climbed up!
Civil Twilight is a wonderful thing. www.timeanddate.com/astronomy/civil-twilight.html
1. You're awesome; Awesome Anna.
2. To be a Harry, your scarecrow needs glasses (round ones).
3. I am sure your bagels tasted better than they looked.
4. What song were the birds singing?
5. Maths?! That is more difficult than running the 24 miles.
6. You're awesome.
Haha thank you! I wish that was the case for the bagels!
I watched the Beau miles mile an hour video and it was very epic
We loved it!
Me too it really inspired me
Bravo! I have to believe at this point you have no right to doubt what you can achieve under any circumstance if you put your mind to it. Well done.
Thank you so much!
All of Beau's videos are brilliant. He's got an infectious optimism and outlook on life. He's got a few other interesting running videos on his channel as well which I would recommend everyone checks out.
His video about running the Australian Alps is a classic. Look for 'Trials of Miles'.
Beau's "Mile with May" video, walking that same block with his new daughter May a couple years later is very sweet, and funny if you've seen his 24 Hour challenge video all the way through.
Well done!! Crazy!!! I would find that hell. Funnily enough, I just finished reading, "Pedestrianism" by Matthew Algeo this week. It was a huge sport for a few decades in the 1800s. Ada Anderson did 2,700 quarter miles in 2,700 quarter hours at the end of 1878. I think she didn't take Sunday off, but other walkers did. Around the same time, Peter Van Ness tried to do 2,000 half miles in 2,000 half hours. 1,718 half miles in, he got a gun and shot his trainer (hit his arm) when he tried to make him carry on. The Police let him carry on instead of arresting him. In 1907, at 61, Dan O'Leary did 1,000 miles in 1,000 consecutive hours. The health risks to people doing such truly insane things were fully apparent in how they looked and acted, and it seems to have been a pretty grim spectacle at a lot of events. Personally, I would have needed 24 hours just to put the tent up!!
2 in the morning, the worst time.... the best time! 😀🤘💗
🙌
I don’t know why but this is by far my favorite video on The Running Channel! The voiceover , and seeing more of Anna’s personal life makes it a pleasure to watch 😃👏🏻 Please keep making more of those types of videos.
Thanks so much. That’s really kind of you to say. I thoroughly enjoyed making it (Anna)
I know this is an older video but that was super cozy overall. The challenge sounds easy at first but getting up and out every hour... kudos to you 👏🏽
This sounds even more challenging than the 5 miles every 4 hours for a day that I did recently (adds up to 30 miles). Nice work!
That sounds tough, well done!
Incredible camerawork and music to go with your video. I was reminded of the game 'stardew valley' throughout given the beautiful outdoors, shift in day-night, constant busy-ness and the wonderful pup.
So inspiring, love the fact that you guys are keeping up the positivity even in the hardest conditions, you reminded me how much I do complain about being busy while I can just reorganize myself better to do more , couldn't thank you enough for this favour.
I'm a bit struggling at the moment to start running again after the lockdown my performance dropped significantly and i'am bit disaponted, any ideas how to overcome that mental and physical wall
Sorry to hear you are struggling. The best advice we can give is that you are not alone, we all battle physically and mentally when running. Please check out our video all about self doubt and how best to cope with it: ruclips.net/video/uMf8NWUSFjA/видео.html Hope this helps!
Brilliant. Well done, Anna. What a great idea.
I did a virtual event called P24 - The longest day.
Participants had to run the minimum distance of 1 mile, on the stoke of each hour, for 24 hours. Running just before, and after the hour to gain more recovery time was strictly forbidden. Each run had to be logged on their facebook page to make sure there was no cheating.
I ran 5k for 17 of the 24 hours and managed 65.9 miles in total. Thought it wouldn't be easy but it was actually much tougher than expected. I'd finish a run knowing there wasn't much recovery time before the next run had to be started.

Well done on a difficult challenge. I love the bagel trick (and the puppy :-))
i really love how sincere you are in your vids Anna! loving the content. keep up the good work and stay safe!

Who else felt tired watching her run during the night 😴
🙋♀️
Great stuff! Beau Miles is a legend. I was lucky enough to interview him on my podcast (The Trail Runners Experience) a few months ago. Very smart guy.
Ahh nice one! Will check it out 😊
Well done Anna I enjoyed the video. Impressive DIY skills 🤔
Even though you say you were exhausted you still look quite lively.
And is that very scary scarecrow working
Thanks so much! Haha glad the scarecrow is doing his job 😂
Anna:" lets do a math test"
Me: Nooooooo, I drop my head on the table. lol
Great job Anna! I don't think I could have done this challenge .
Thanks so much for watching!

You are amazing! From the runner to the carpenter until to the baker! 👍😁❤️
All rounder 😉
Great video!!!
Well done for completing that
Quote at the end is so true
Aw this is so perfect and lovely, thank you! I was expecting tears but Anna was so happy throughout... So inspiring... Will have to try this one day!
Thanks so much, you should it was so much fun and felt so productive!
Great video. I've not tried the mile an hour challenge as yet but I do enjoy solo 24hr races/challenges, I did the Virtual Solstice 24 challenge last weekend managing 112.8 miles. That time early morning when all the birds start singing is a lovely time to be out 🙂
Best time of day that! Congrats on your solstice distance, well done!
Really enjoyed this, thanks Anna! And well done for completing it!
Thanks so much, glad you enjoyed!
Was waiting for this one after seeing your Strava data! Yes!
Hope you enjoyed!
I love watching your running vlogs, Anna, they’re always so funny and inspiring at the same time! I would think the lack of sleep would be worst than running 24 miles in a day. But then again, I have never ran more than 14 miles in a single day before. 🤔
I think it may have been a combination of the two that made this challenging, defo worth trying if you fancy it tho!
Yeah it one of those challenges that sounds easy but in reality harder than you think. The lack of sleep would be my undoing.
The lack of sleep was tough!
Challenge idea: Try and complete as many of the different strava activities you can in one day (There are so many!) Who ever does the most different ones, wins? :)
Challenge accepted 😉
Great idea !
#1 massive challenge, massive Kudos earned too. They say running twice in a day is hard!! I can't imagine how shattered you must have been. #2 what a great video.

Just the thing to help get through the challenges of this weird situation we're all in. Thank you! 😎👍🌟The sentiment at the end totally nailed it.
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, so pleased you enjoyed the challenge and you were able to forget about everything else whilst watching!
Anna is so positive and smiley it honestly makes me so happy. So proud of you, your mindset is incredible!
This comment has made our day!
Way to go, sleep deprived running sounds especially difficult. Great ideas making your day productive still too.💪
Thanks so much for watching!
Watching Anna do this challenge makes me want to not run anymore! Maybe i just did a long run thats why. Great job on the challenge
Thanks so much!
The scare crow should be called Rick...
Brilliant 😂
Give it short shorts
Very well done, Anna!
My regards from Rio de Janeiro, the land of Paulo Coelho!
Well done!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing this grueling exercise with the world. I know that I watched it with rapt attention and rejoiced with your every win, every checked box, every running session completed! You showed us the possible & completed the improbable! Jolly good! (as I imagine your country mates might say)! A wonderful experiment: thanks so much!!!
I love yoga with Adrienne! I finished her 30 day routine and now I’ve stopped
Such good yoga sessions!
Wow Anna!!! Well done ..👏 It's so inspiring to see this video..It shows how much time we waste and we could do lot of things,if we put our mind to it..A very productive video indeed...Thank you so much!😊💕🙏
Thank you so much 🙂
There’s a new challenge to have a crack at before the year is out! Really enjoyed it, and I love the idea of a maths test to finish it off. Thanks for creating such a great and inspiring watch 😃
Do let us know if you give it a try! Thanks so much 😊
Brilliant, I loved this, I'm new to your running channel, I'm an old and just getting back into running, you guys explain every thing really well, thank you.
Ah welcome back Kevin! So pleased to hear you're finding our videos helpful! Have you got any running goals for 2021?
This was such a unique running video. You were awesome! Great job powering through.
Thanks so much for watching!
I’d love to see Anna do David Goggins 4x4x48 challenge!
YES!!!!
Great Video, Thank you :-) for your hard work. Don't worry about the maths lol... Im a homeschool mother and have managed to teacher my math up until now, age 13... but I was shocked how hard its been lol.. Ive had to learn along the way and I thought i was good at maths lol
Thanks for watching! That’s amazing, maths can be such a struggle especially with no sleep!
I did the same Yoga for Runners session last week! What a challenge you took on! 😊👏
How did you like it?! It was a great challenge!
Lovely stuff! How long did it take you to recover? I was excited to see you have a video reviewing books, which I've missed. Read a couple of Adharanand Finn books, which are ace.
Thanks so much. I was very tired afterwards. I had a bit of a nap but then was fine the next day.
Beau Miles is one of my favorite youtubers! Loved that video!
Thanks for the inspiration! I did this with my neighbour here in Leipzig, Germany last weekend. We started at 4am. I found the time between zipped by too quickly and jobs stretched out over several between times. Still, I now have clean windows and no weeds in front of my house. The last hours were tough with regard to sleepiness and stiffness.
Well done Anna. I really couldn't imagine myself doing a challenge like this haha.
Thanks so much, it was tough but a lot of fun!
@@runningchannel You're very welcome. That must have been really tough but you dug in and completed it :) Brilliant effort.
Y'all inspired me. So I gave it a go. I live on the side of a mountain so to avoid loads of hills I ran as many miles on a track. Couple thoughts.
The Day's high temp was 36. This killed me! Add the fact that the track is black, man that was draining.
I love running early morning.
I felt like it was always half past!
Got loads done in between the runs but I asked wife, mom, and kids so have loads more not yet done.
Thank you for the inspiration!!!
Amazing, well done!!
Here in pei Canada on a Sunday morning watching this video and thankful we have people like you to remind us of how great life can be during difficult times.
So lovely of you to say, thanks so much for watching!
Thanks for this and well done for completing the challenge. I watched the Beau Miles video a few years back and was immediately inspired to try the same. Sadly (or perhaps luckily) minor setbacks on several occasions meant I had to bale out before even starting, so I never got around to it. I'd always thought a mile every hour would be easy, but your experience suggests I was significantly under estimating the challenge. Perhaps I'll try a 12 hour stint first!
I have done this several times with my HS XC team and it was lots of fun. Much more of mental challenge than physical challenge.
Anna, you inspire me more than any other youtuber. Keep it up.
Thank you so much!
Running at night is the best part of working graveyard. And now, thanks to the pandemic, it's pretty much the only good thing about working graveyard, since now grocery stores are no longer open past 11pm.
Anna I appreciate your work! Keep up the good videos! Great job!
Thanks so much, will do!
I just love how crazy Anna is 😆😍🥰😜
😂
Anna - Fabulous, Awesome and what a lovely little guy Hugo is - I always look forward to my running channel video, I just finished my 12 hour shift and this was a great way to wind down with a smile.
Thanks 🙏👟👟🐶💕
Aw why thank you! Glad you enjoyed this!
Great video Anna and The Running Channel! I think the challenge in itself is by no means easy especially with the sleep deprivation( I would struggle 😂) Your videos are amazing especially during these difficult times, content is spot on. Whilst there is the lack of social interaction for runners at the moment your videos provide great motivation. 👏👏
So glad you are enjoying our content, so happy to be part of this amazing running community, especially during these times 😊
This was great - thanks for sharing. It was very interesting - and I think I will think about doing this!
You should, let us know how you get on with the challenge!
Well done Anna 🙂 this has gave me a brilliant fundraising challenge, Im taking part in the great North run and need to raise money for a charity and I've been looking for challenges to help my fundraising, will do this, on the longest day 👍
Thanks for the video! I'm doing a 26 hour marathon in a few weeks and its nice to see what I'm in for!
Great! Let us know how it goes and good luck 😊
Awesome job! I need sleep so I'm out! Haha. I'll stick to climbing runs! Thanks
Thanks for watching!
Love this video. Planning a 24 hour race in May and this was inspiring. Helped me think about my plan.
Glad you found it helpful. Good luck with your race in May!
Dying! I was sawing just like that today, except I was barefoot. 😂
😂😂😂 don’t take health and safety tips from Anna!!
Never saw the spoon+spin to form bagels! Love it!
Awesome!! Well done Anna and again a very inspirational challenge!
Thank you so much!
That Beau Miles video a mile and hour is excellent!
Glad you think so!
Credit for doing it with a smile 👏
Always! 😊
Love the takeaways! I'm going to try to do the David Goggins 4 x 4 x 48 next month and can't wait! (4 miles every 4 hours for 48 hours).
Best of luck with this challenge!
@@distancerunner6211 It was brutal but a lot of fun! Posted a video covering the ordeal as well. ruclips.net/video/bLcCBKUH1Qw/видео.html
no way!!!
@@kevinaalberts9251 It was a wild run haha but a lot of fun!
Read about the challenge in Runners World. Great work Anna. Can't wait to see Hugo get old enough to go with you. Cute puppy. Cheers
Ah that's awesome, thanks so much! He is the best puppy, great company for the challenge! Thanks for watching 😊
@@runningchannel I have a border collie puppy is there any guidance on running with puppies and dogs?
Haha David Goggins 4x4x48 😊 you’ll thank me or curse me out on mile 46
You’re on! 😉
Did a modified version when I first started running earlier this year. 3 mi an hour in under 12 hours. Never ran 26.2 mi in a week at that time, much less in a day. Boy, I learned the "increase your mileage gradually" advice the hard way, my foot hurts for a while and I couldn't run for two weeks😂 yeah, big dummy mistake but still a fun thing to accomplish
Since you named the scarecrow Harry you should have put a lightning bolt on its forehead and some glasses Anna! ⚡👓
Haha great idea 🌩
Hey Anna! You inspired me to give this a shot during quarantine!
Twice around my block ended up being about 1.25 miles, so I ran that every hour until I did a marathon. I'd never run like this before and I definitely came back to your video for motivation. 21 hours later (and 43 laps around the neighborhood), I'd run my first ever marathon! Might make myself a tinfoil medal to commemorate the occasion lol
Wow amazing job Katharine! Well done! Love the tinfoil medal! Are you going to sign up to a marathon when races return?
@@runningchannel I think I'd have fun doing a half (never run one of those either until yesterday)! Maybe work my way up to a full... I'm moving to England so maybe I'll see you out there once races start up again!
Reminds me of running the Endure24 (cancelled this year - Boo Hoo!). Love trail running at night and especially just before and during dawn when the atmosphere is magical!
Yes! That’s the race I was meant to be doing this year! I made a video from the Leeds one last year ruclips.net/video/0QYCpPEYzBY/видео.html (Anna)
Great great video ! !
Thank you for the running channel
Thanks for watching!
Fantastic! I watched Beaus video when it first came out, but didn't seriously consider it. After this i think I might do it! Great job!
Glad you liked it, would definitely recommend giving it a go and please keep us updated if you do!
👍👍good stuff Ana. Sunrises are the best but I'm a early riser. Maybe try a progressive week run. Day 1 one mile / Day 2 four miles, keep doubling the day number so by day 7 you have a 14 mile run. Gives you a 55 mile week, just an idea
That’s a cool idea! Always looking got new challenges!
Well done Anna! Congrats and thanks for rising to this challenge.
Thanks! 😊
Great video, lovely quote at the end.
Thanks for watching!
Great challenge....and that statement at the end is more than 100% right well done 👍
Thanks for watching!
I would have had a hard time with that math test on full rest, I can’t imagine with no sleep!😂😂😂
Haha give it a try and let us know you’re score!
Great vid - well done Anna on completing the challenge!
Thanks for watching!
Well done Anna. I completed the Phoenix P24
Thank you! Well done to you too!
