Brilliant video mate. Had forgotten how awesome the Howgills are! Picked a great day for it 👍👍

Great vid John 😀 Keep 'em coming!👍

And, you couldn't share what shorts you are wearing can you? Always struggle to find decent running shorts

Very informative! Purchased the map for my upcoming attempt. I'm a runner but new to fell racing, did Snowdon recently. I would love a "gear" run-through. Fell running gear essentials etc video?

Another cracking vid John 👍 Wish there were more but I'm sure life gets in the way. I've done a fair bit of running over the Howgills myself. Great place to escape the busy parts of the lakes. Always makes me feel tiny running around those giant humps of hills.Look forward to the next one mate . Hopefully not to long to wait. Keep up the great filming. Pete 👍

Have your "fan dance" if you have to but please pronounce Pen Y Fan itself "Pen uh van". Same for the Y in Talybont. "corn dee", van uh beeg, vechan forest

Lovely video, thank you. Wonderful scenery.

Love the Howgills John, a wonderful untouched set of lumps.... have a look at the Harvey Howgills challenge.. the 40 tops above 400m. Great loop..

Nice one,. John. Good to see you briefly at Borrowdale. In two minds about racing this & whether got enough time between now & then to recce it.

Thanks for the showcase John, been looking for an excuse to explore the Howgill,s . Should imagine a good deal quieter than the other side of the M6. Great video, keep up the good work 👌

Spoke about you two twice yesterday mate! Once to the girls in Pete Bland - trying to give you kudos for recommending the store - and afterwards doing the Kentmere horseshoe to another fell runner. That was my first time to Kentmere - based on your recommendation - and you’re right, what a lovely valley. I’ve come off Instagram so you won’t see me on there for the time being. Cheers mate, Si. P.s. the fast lane on dual carriage ways is for overtaking only 😂

Good vid John have done the trail 26 marathon up there a few times. Beautiful on the tops. Thanks.

Thanks John... Great to see you out again with another cracking vid of a race prep. Ta

Never done the Howgills. Looks like good runnable terrain as you mentioned. Thanks for sharing ✌️

nice weather too, tyvm for sharing

Nice one John 👍

Hi John, not into most of these Fan Dance videos tbh with you but as a lakeland dude i m just wondering if you remember or have taken part in The Saunders Lakeland Mountain Marathon, Kletts Classic event? It involved a sole ridge climb around V Diff standard. Unique event..!

I live South Cumbria/North lancs. Tend now to visit the trough which stunning and quiet or Dales. Anyways, i read a biography by lead singer of chumbawumba, a book just about his love for fell running in UK and now the US.

Really useful videos, shame could not continue and take to end back to Coniston. Thanks for producing. Race in 2 weeks. Hope the injuries heal up soon for your future races.

Love it mate. Gable looks absolutely bloody miles away from Pillar. (And Zeetallan is a slog!) Roll on next Saturday. Don't forget your bitty👍👍

Brutal, but I can't wait for a week on Saturday 😅😅😅

well done John👍

Great video of hill running heaven, hope to be there next year

Love this race. I need to do it some year, so thanks for your documentation.

Great video. Well done.

Really good work John and great vid as ever. Least conditions were better than forecast too, some of us got hit by hail near Green Gable! Was good to see you. I rolled my ankle pretty bad coming off Crag Fell, so currently not sure about Buttermere which will be a shame. But we'll see, have a good one if I don't see you there :)

Absolutely AWESOME video mate, don't know you make such cool videos under race conditions. Really enjoyed the video and really enjoyed the race, although I now know that I run like Old Man Steptoe! Bring on the Buttermere Horseshoe 😃👍👍

Brilliant vid John, well done. Cracking effort too, that's a toughie! 👍

Brilliant well done John, it looked like you were suffering a bit towards the back end, great effort and brilliant vlog as always 👍

A single 'f' in Welsh is pronounced as a 'v' and the 'y' isnt pronounced as 'ee' its pronounced as 'uh'. The 'big' isn't pronounced the same in Welsh, its pronounced 'beeg' because the 'i' is an 'ee' sound. So its actually pronounced phonetically as 'Pen uh Van' and 'Van uh Beeg'.

Well done mate great video i was there myself what an adventure ✊

Awesome effort John. tough round any day of the week. Well done bud. 👋👋👋

Well done Chris,sorry,John(iam sure your Chris?).

Brilliant John. When I get fitter, learn to climb, decend and navigate I'm going to run the Lakeland Classics Trophy! Well paced effort. Great video!

Enjoyed the music in this one not usually a fan bit it wasn't overpowering

Stunning, well done John. I was lost in the landscape watching the race video.

Well done on the result John!!

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...

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✌️

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.

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 😂

DFL ( dead fucking last) is a great honor. I’ve been there myself. 😂

Good luck tomorrow...

Enjoy Ennerdale. I always buy my hill running gear from Pete Bland, a great supporter of fell-running

Have a good one this weekend John...

Nice one. Come on then John - top Gym tunes??

Loved it John...Thanks again for these brilliantly filmed, scored and chilled running videos you give us. 👍

Well ran mate, she’s a beast of a run.

Did you get a spot for this year? 2024?

great running John, awesome footage too
