Loved the content thanks again .
Thanks for listening Paul 😊
As usual brilliant. Jay great race, I feel like we are pretty similar, I haven't done Leeds but I do agree with reading a d the hills, they very much are hills and you are walking them! I however don't agree with Freddy saying that the teams is not as good, it's very different but it's very social, on the course yes of course not but at camp it's a vibe! Scott next year let's go 100! Also yup I was in sight of the podium going 21 laps kept me right up there
Yeah - I reckon I was probably thinking out loud at that point and was looking at it all wrong. 😊
I’ve just watched this video as I am attempting this on Sunday but the 10k. Aiming for a time of 70 minutes. I think I’ll be happy to just complete it!
How did you get on Danielle?
@@freddyruns well I finished it 🤣🤣 it was really hard. Didn’t get my pb. But I’m happy that I did it. I actually finished last out of 52 people with 1 hour 20. Which in hindsight is only 10 minutes slower than I was aiming for. Started and finished so it was still a win.
@@patisseriequeen coming last just means you got your monies worth! Well done for smashing it!! 😊
@@freddyruns 😊definitely enjoyed it. Lovely warm day and then had THE nicest coffee and brownie afterwards from the coffee van 😋
@@patisseriequeenthat’s what it’s really about 😊
Really enjoyed that. I have a 12 hour event this weekend, 6pm - 6am and I have a similar tactic. I name the different parts of the course and then when I pass one the only thing in my mind is the next one coming up. This stops you thinking too far ahead and keeps you in the moment. The next landmark is not very far away and that is always achievable. The only target I have is to keep moving as much as I can and minimise stopping between laps. I have only ever done one 12h event before and I am slightly concerned that when I pass last years distance I will lose my head a bit so I am going to try and not think about distance during the run. This podcast has got me exited for the weekend to see what is possible. The answer to that question is anything.
Thanks Dave, good luck with the event this weekend!
Thanks Dave, I really enjoyed this one too - such a nice fella. Good luck mate, I look forward to seeing how you get on 😊
It was great to meet you out on the route Freddy! Top chap! All the best 😁
Thank you! Will you be back in ‘25? 😊
@@freddyruns After much healing - I'm yet to decide.
Thanks for having me 🙌🤝
Brilliant to meet you Jay, we’ll deffo have a catch up and social run sometime down the line.
Anytime Jay! Any time you want to talk to us, you’re welcome on!
Wanna join ✌🏽
Great video and congrats on a brilliant effort to you all - brings back memories (painful ones). Night rain meant it was freezing by 5 am. Did see you on the course but wasn't in a great state to say hello by then. Advice to any one doing this get there very early on Friday to grab a prime track side pitch like Freddy got, I just about managed it at 9.30 am, later than that and you would be struggling .. 16 laps down and binned out about 6.30 am in agony. Good luck next year, would agree with Brice,, don't stop
Well done Pete, 16 laps is tremendous! You back in 2025?
@@freddyruns no trying the Thames Path 100 next year. Look forward to your next video, keep making them 👍
Congratulations! I passed you about 5:15am I think, quite near the start of the lap. Much easier in a team.
You back in 2025? 😊
@@freddyruns hopefully. Will definitely bring better camping equipment next time; makes a big difference being able to get your head down for a few good hours
Good chat. Those 2 Runners are fab
Couldn’t agree more 😊
And within days of completing this, you've got many more races planned into the strava group. You've absolutely turned into an addict....:P
Hahaha back to it tomorrow with the Newcastle Half Marathon 😊
Saw you there and gave you a shout out. Fabulous achievement. I surpassed my expectations, 30 miles non stop ( not ran further than 16 non stop before) then added another 20. Brilliant event
@@user-pf7mv3rh2w that’s amazing! Congratulations- back for more next year? 😊😎
@@freddyruns not planning to. Done it 3 times in a team and once solo. Falls on same day as Sheffield round run ( another fab event) but you never know may do it as a pair as I’ll suffer from fomo
Well done guys ❤
Thank you Aleksandra 😊
Well done Freddy, I was lucky enough to catch up with you on loop. Amazing effort by all runners and a great weekend. Just had a confirmation email for 2025. Hope you see you back out there, keep up the great vlogs
Thanks Andrew! I didn’t get a place in the ballot this year!!……. I did jump in quickly though and scoop up a charity place 😊
Well done Freddy! 👏👏👏. 75 miles next year is gonna need consistency for the next 12 months. No pushing hard on the speed… just go long and slow for 12 months. You will be even more awesome than now! Take care! You can’t afford an injury.
Thanks Alec, that’s the aim. I’ve not really trained specifically for it this year, so pretty happy to get 11 laps. Definitely wanting to focus more on it for 2025 though 😊 Good to see you’re still around 👍
@@freddyruns have had my own injury challenges in the last 8 months. I was too cavalier, and needed to rein in the fast stuff.
@@Alecmcq hope you’re doing better now mate
@@freddyruns certainly am… I am not quite back to where I was 10 months ago, but I am now going in the right direction. Take care!
My advice from someone of around the same running ability as yourself is to not sleep and don't have secondary tragets. We were at Leeds and for us it was 100k or we classed it as failure, we went though the night and finished our 13th lap at 20:45.
Thanks Brice! 😊
What an absolutely phenomenal personal achievement. It was a beautiful, happy and emotional watch. Massive congratulations 👏 🙌 🎯
Thanks Dean, we had a lot of fun! 😊
Well done and an amazing achievement. All of you were fantastic and it was nice to bump into you and share a few miles too! Hope we all get to do it again next year. Lovely video. Keep fit and well!
Thanks Alan, was great to meet you! Always love a bit of shoe chat! 😊
Well done Freddy, you smashed it! xx
Thank you Kate! 😊
well done to you all on a fantastic day great achievements 👍
Thanks Paul 😊
Mega effort mate. Had to give this year a miss but will see you next year, hoping for 100km
Look forward to it mate, ‘25 will be epic! 😊

well done amazing
Thank you 😊
Amazing,well done, mental and physical strength was inspiring to watch x keep going x
Thank you Mandy 😍
Well done Freddy! It was such an absolutely brilliant weekend and everyone did amazing but this is what it's all about, having fun and supporting each other, and the community never disappoints. Can't wait to see what you do next year. More is definitely in you.
Fiona the machine! Absolutely phenomenal result for you Fiona, particularly as it was so close to you also smashing 100k at Reading!
Fiona, I'm curious what your strategy was. Do you mind sharing?
@@Pocket_Rob keep eating, keep drinking, keep moving. I'm not a fast runner but I am quite calculated. I don't go to out too fast and I'm strict with energy conservation. Don't over think it. doing it is the only way to get it done and it's your mind that will keep you going. I know that as long as I keep moving the numbers will stack up. Don't think in miles/km. Only think about starting the next lap. If you start it, you'll probably finish it. I took a nap when it got light. About 40 mins seems to be ideal. It refreshes you but you don't get into a deeper sleep that's harder to get up from and it's easier to get up in the light than if it's still dark. Get ready to start your next lap before you get food/have a nap so you can get up and go. Don't take your shoes off!
@@Pocket_Robit's also worth saying that I absolutely love these events and my main aim is to experience it as fully as possible. Although I had distances in mind that I thought I could do, my main aim is to keep going for the full 24hrs and I think that naturally produces a slightly different approach.
Congratulations to you all on your PBs!!! What a fantastic weekend! Scot is so right, the secret is to EAT! You've got me excited to sign up for my next ultra! What a fun looking event that was!
I swear you need to buy a plane ticket for next year! 😜✈️🏃♀️
Well done Freddy amazing effort and to the team 👏. The video was brilliant loved watching your journey from the start.respect ❤
Thank you😊
As a fan! My favourite vlog yet! 😂 well done all of us! What a team !! 💪

What an incredbile weekend that was. Already making plans for next year when we'll make 75 in '25 happen!
Time to start back with the training 😊
Incredible, sad not to make it, but perhaps next year!
I hope so!! 😊
Great video mate, relly enjoyed that you did awesome!
Thanks Jamie - look forward to seeing you in next years version 😊
Loved the question at the end. In a similar vein, I would love to be a park ranger or maybe a hiking/alpinist guide. Spending time out in nature and getting people excited about being out sounds amazing.
Well done to the Super duper ultra craziness. Listed on Spotify (sorry for not helping the UA-cam algorithm....will probably listen to again on drive to work Sunday). But what an awesome podcast and experience shared, one of those stories where Im laughing and crying along with and feeling the ups and the downs. Again, awesome Podcast, Think Jamie should be a regular guest star, great (true) story teller.
Awe thanks Kevin! That's really good too hear! I have race to the stones soon so il do a report on that 😊

Cheers for having me on again! I genuinely just had such a great time on the podcast and at endure. Thanks so much to freddy and scott for having me on as well! It was also the hottest day of the year i think 😂
Great episode! Interesting and inspiring to hear Jamie’s experience. Scott’s microphone is playing up a bit I think lol, sounds dropping in and out. Good luck at Endure guys! Looking forward to seeing the results and video after. 💪🏻
Disaster this week mate my Virgin Media connection had a major fault in my area with upload speeds. Was livid! 😂
@@scottgraham4172so that was the problem! We were trying all sorts of debugging shenanigans 🤣🤣
@@scottgraham4172 oh that’s annoying but still a great episode regardless.
Well done Jamie :)
Cheers mate, il be watching at the weekend!
Such a great podcast. Loved listening all the way from North Carolina in the US! I found Lucy around the same time I found Freddy last year. Question about shoes for a 210 pound person. I'm on my 2nd pair of Brooks Ghost. Is there a better shoe out there for an overweight wannabe runner. I've been to running stores to be fitted in the past and while they will feel great on in the store after a few days wearing them, my feet hate me. Any recs would be great.
Good luck Fred 👍 your some man 🙂
Thanks Paddy, will do my best mate 😊
Legend 👍
Sounds like you're fit and in decent shape, Freddy. Hope it goes well mate. You mentioned your weight, and at this point I'm starting to be convinced that losing weight is way harder than running! I've been bouncing up and down in the same range of lbs for a while now. Can't get consistent with diet for love nor money.
Thanks Mark! Losing weight is super hard, I’m contemplating a video about this, to help understand why I struggle with it so much. Just need to make sure I’m comfortable enough to do it first
You've got this! I work so much, training always takes a back seat. I've come to the conclusion that if i see to my overall fitness- running, strength, yoga, and time on feet... then i can accomplish just about anything I've set my mind to. My goal is to arrive at the start fit, with no niggles or issues. It sounds like you're there! And this isn't a "nothing" video, it's a taper video! 😂 Good luck to you, Scott, and everyone else headed to Endure 24!
My mindset is different this time, I’m more comfortable being uncomfortable now, my body will just have to keep moving and ignore that dude telling me to stop 😊
I'll be there at the weekend, my first as a solo. I haven't managed to get to 20 miles in my long runs but have been getting high weekly mileage until the last 2 weeks where I've started a new job and hardly run at all, but I have cycled to work every day for 2 weeks so I'm hoping that will be of some benefit and get me to the 10 lap target. Hopefully see you there, good luck.
Thanks Kev! Good luck mate, hope we see you there 😊
I know how frustrated Scott is feeling. I've been building up to two events on 7th and 14th July and last Monday on a recce run I overdid it and my right knee has been sore since - especially up stairs. Have totally avoided running since in the hope of healing it. Can manage cycling, swimming and elliptical okay. Fingers crossed...
Good luck Paul, I hope your body behaves and does as you ask it! Let us know how it goes mate!
the drone footage is so cool :o - Scott you better be there bro!!
Cheers Tom! Look forward to getting more shots this weekend 😊
Good luck with the endure freddy, I'll see you there. Hope you make it to the start line, Scott. I'm apprehensive about it, but it's going to be what it is. My main aim is to enjoy it.
Thank you! Make sure you pop and say hello if you see us! Best of luck, I hope you smash it! 😎
