How BRILLIANT is the RUNNING COMMUNITY? It's No Club Running Club! - Al Pepper Runs
What was meant to be the No Club Running Club 'takeover' of Newcastle Town Moor parkrun was slightly hampered by the fact that.... the parkrun was cancelled!
Unfortunately, the threat of Storm Darragh meant that parkruns up and down the country were cancelled however NCRC decided to meet up regardless and I'm rather pleased we did!
The rain and wind couldn't dampen our spirits as we jogged round the rather barren Town Moor (even the cows weren't there!) before grabbing a coffee and a cake at Urban Green café afterwards.
In my opinion - and I'm being genuine here - the appeal of NCRC is more than just the clothes, it's the very real sense of community the brand creates. Al and the team are brilliant supporters of the running community and I'm always over the moon to part of it!
ENJOY!

Have I BROKEN MY FOOT?! A bit of a mishap at Brimham Rocks! - Al Pepper Runs
Переглядів 1,6 тис.21 день тому
Well... Apologies but there's not much of a video this week! Originally I had big plans for the weekend, an adventure to Brimham Rocks on Saturday followed by the Wild Deer Events Slayley Hall 10k on Sunday. Unfortunately, I misjudged a drop whilst clambering about with my brother, landed awkwardly and well... I'll let you guys find out what happened! The big question now is... when will I be b...
Running a lapped HALF MARATHON with SATURN RUNNING! - Al Pepper Runs
Переглядів 1,8 тис.Місяць тому
This weekend saw me attend the Saturn Running Remembrance Day Run at Durham, a 4.3 mile lapped event with the goal being to see how many laps you can complete within 6.5 hours. A busy field and lovely route made for a great morning of running however, the event was also an opportunity to reflect and give thanks to the service people who have fought, and in some cases died, to protect our freedo...
A BRILLIANT Sunday morning at the Wild Deer Events TOMMY 10K 2024! - Al Pepper Runs
Переглядів 2,3 тис.Місяць тому
This weekend saw me return to Seaham for the Wild Deer Events Tommy 10K... with a new route (less mud) and a bigger field, could this year match the fun of 2023? In short... yes! I had every confidence that this would be a brilliant morning out and it absolutely delivered. Join Lorna and I (and a whole host of friendly faces of course) as we enjoy a lovely out and back route, complete with seve...
Can I rescue my DRONE from one of the UK's MOST ICONIC rivers?! - Al Pepper Runs
Переглядів 1,6 тис.Місяць тому
A rare weekend without a race gave me the opportunity to try out my new DJI Neo drone that I bought with the intention of filming footage from a new perspective. It needs to be autonomous, robust and importantly, easy to use whilst out running! Unfortunately, what started out as a review soon descended into chaos. Numerous crashes (pilot error I should add) ended in a rather spectacular race to...

This may well be the last ultra I'll run this year... so I guess it needed to be a rather spectacular adventure! Join Russ, Wayne and I as we take on the Wild Deer Events Ultra Marathon, a 53k circular route starting in Shotley Bridge and taking in Waskerley Way, Smiddy Shaw Reservoir and Derwent Walk. This one's a bit wet and windy but hopefully that all adds to the experience! ENJOY! NEW VIDE...

After thoroughly enjoying the marathon earlier in the year, this weekend saw me return to Manchester for the MCR Half Marathon! With 90k in my legs from the Glasgow to Edinburgh, how would I get on?!

The HARDEST ULTRA I've ever ran... and it was FLAT! GB Ultras Glasgow to Edinburgh! - Al Pepper Runs
Переглядів 6 тис.2 місяці тому
An ultra run that's almost totally flat and almost entirely on footpaths... that should be easy, right?! Turns out it wasn't and in a rare turn of events for regular viewers of this channel, Ultra Smid was the one with a smile on his face while I had to dig deep to put it mildly. With a hard deadline - we had a train to catch - and a shopping list of aches and pains as the miles continues, woul...

A LOVELY 10K followed by a BACKYARD ULTRA?! This isn't your normal Sunday! - Al Pepper Runs
Переглядів 2,1 тис.2 місяці тому
After a high mileage weekend at The Lap, Windermere, this weekend saw me taking things a bit easier... but no less fun! A pleasant parkrun on Saturday followed by an afternoon at the Greener Miles Cow Shed gave way to a super Sunday including the Run Nation Matfen 10k and... a return to the Cow Shed to watch the runners hit that magic 100 mile mark! This instalment may be light on the adventure...

Massive ell done!!! Have not ran anywhere near that far but the feeling of unending straight was what I faced walking the great glen way - its really hard on the mind. You stayed incredibly positive. (new follower here)
Love your videos all the way from South Africa! 🇿🇦 You deserve more followers 😊
@@kobusgreeff thank you! Really appreciate it and hello South Africa! The followers will hopefully build but I appreciate every one that I have so far!
Great video as usual 🤘
@@mralex989 thanks Alex! It was a fun morning despite the weather!
Donuts at mile 2 of a half 🤔...brilliant 🤣🤣
@@whereweoffDAD guaranteed PB fuel!
Great turn out love the yellow jacket thanks again
@@paulsummerly8203 thanks Paul! That was North Face, although I should perhaps have had an NCRC one on instead!
I'm tempted to drive up as that looks wild... Blyth may not be the nicest beach but this would be worth the trip. Additionally, plenty of fist bumps but maybe not a record...
@@BillyBobJoeSnr ha, I wonder what the record is?! I’m a ‘more the merrier’ kind of guy!
@AlPepperRuns It could be worth contacting Guinness to is if it's a world record number of fist bumped at a running event....??
"How you feeling mate?" ....<maniacal laughter> 😂
bodyguards!!!!
@@lynseydawson8665 haha, you know it. I must think I’m big time now!
wahey! you made it for the start briefing!!! 😉
@@lynseydawson8665 haha, I actually walked away half way through just to keep up tradition. I’d feel odd knowing what was going on!
have a look at the Winter Wipeout race , coldbrew events , early January
@@andys121. thanks for the heads up! I’ll check it out now!
Well done Al, you have the GREATEST laugh, I can’t help but smile when you are laughing… ❤❤❤
@@leesahscottage663 ha! You’re very kind! Thank you!
Well done road ro recovery. I have done a beach run a few times in Worthing for the West Sussec Fun Run league race tor my running club. In the summer though.When I hurt my foot back in the summer , I got knocked off my bike. I started running a few weeks later, and the swelling went down quicker. Cannot stop us runners.
@@janettrigwell8851 oh dear, sorry to hear about your accident! But yeah, we’re keen to get going again aren’t we. Just got to avoid rushing it and making things worse!
Nope! Noppity nope nope! Looks bloody freezing! Also the last time I ran on a beach I ended up with shinsplints that put me out of action for months until we eventually figured out that they were referred pain from a ricked back. But well done, and great to see you back, Al! Edited to add: Oh and the barnacles..... Screw that for a game of soldiers!
@@neilcam haha, the barnacles are where you draw the line! I scuffed a couple of them as I passed and they’re blooming sharp!
Looks like a great event! And great to see you back in action!
@@anthonyhughes1390 it’s brilliant fun! Thanks mate!
I’m starting to wonder if you can truly call yourself an English runner if you haven’t given Al Pepper a fist pump
Great to see you back sir.great video I love Blyth your races always make me home sick.thanks again
@@paulsummerly8203 thanks Paul and… apologies for making you homesick! To be honest, I haven’t been much and only really know the seafront from running but I always have a lovely time up there!
Damn my memory is shot! I hadn't realised I HAD already watched these, but second time round was even better. And I have to say what a stunning, stunning location for an ultra! Thanks for showing us Al.
Good stuff, Al. I hadn't seen the Bridges to Boundaries or the Ultra X Loch Ness, so I'll have to go and watch those now.
Nice little recap Al 👍🏻 I kicked off the year with the Tyne bridges to boundaries as well, and managed to complete my first 100 miler in September with the Pilgrims Ultra. Just starting to think about what to tackle next year now 🤔
Get well soon Big Man!
I did my first half marathon on Sunday that wind man it made it so hard
Nice Barbour 👍
Wishing you a speedy recovery, Al! Can’t wait for Tyne Bridges to Boundaries in March 2025! Half-way buffet 😋
@@laurenshaw93 it’s worth the trek to get there for sure! Great start to the ultra calendar!
Great compilation i loved it great to look back get well soon thanks again

Get a load of this guy, thinks he’s famous enough to get away with a clip show! 😂 Get well soon Pepper!
@@danabc322 haha, it’s already kicking off in the comments section! Thanks mate, I’ll be back at it soon enough!
Hope you recover well and quickly Al!
@@ba-yx1hq thank you!
I ran this as well, albeit it took me 20 hours due to some head torch issues...but God that mud was a real treat 😂😂😂
Love Brimham Rocks but yeah, some very steep drops all around! Get well soon Al
Oh no! I guess I just take it for granted that you’re always running
Get well soon....😊x
@@lizgreen2936 thanks Liz!
Bizarrely enough I was at the rocks a few weeks ago. Had never heard of them before but passed by accidentally. We were heading to Fountains Abbey Parkrun.
Lovely pics of Brimham Rocks - get well soon!
@@lizziecooke5730 thank you! There’ll be a longer / hopefully even more scenic episode on Brimham soon!
Looks like a great run 👏👍
Ouch! At least you managed to get some good content out of it Al 😜 have yourself a well earned rest mate and get well soon 👊🏻
Ah, get well soon! I feel your pain, I broke my arm last time I was at brimham rocks 😅
Recover well Al! I think we need to see a role reversal video where you volunteer and say to every single runner "here's the winning number" when handing out bibs or "G&T?" at every aid station...
Get well soon Al! Looking forward to Laura taking over the channel for a few weeks - Go the girls whoop whoop!! Take care and rest up.
@@TalesfromtheTideline haha, she’s a better runner than me too! I might actually have the winning number for once!
Ouch
Get well soon Al! Glad to hear that there are no breaks - you’ll be selecting the winning number and ordering G&Ts from water stations again in no time!
Ouch! Get well soon Al!
Apparently you’re unrecognisable to me when you’re the colour of printer paper and without a cap 😂 I saw the short video of you on the ground yesterday and thought poor bloke! That must hurt. Then watched this today and thought, that exact same thing happened to some poor bloke just recently, until I realised it was you! 😂😂😂 Rest up Pepper!! I hope you’re feeling all better soon.
🙈🙈🙈
Pleased your ok Take it easy 😊
@@notjustamumfromcumbria2563 thank you! I’ll try… for a little while at least!
Well that's a bugger, Al. Coming off a two week injury hiatus myself, I wish you all the best for a quick recovery.

Hope to see you back to your mischievous self soon. Plenty of rest!!

Pleased to see you up and about and smiling Al! (Silly Boy!!)

Oh nooo!! What a relief nothing is broken. Rest up, you will soon be good to go again 👍😊
