I’m a long distance race walker from New Zealand, living in London, UK.
My focus when it comes to racing is events of 100 miles or more - I'm the current NZ record holder for 100 miles through to 6 days (711km/442miles) which is also the Commonwealth 6 day race-walking record and 4th best recorded in modern race-walking history. I also have a few FKT's (Fastest Known Times) for walks such as circumnavigating London's M25 motorway and visiting all of London's tube stations on foot.
On this You Tube channel I share the occasional video related to my training, racing, or other adventures.

Good job. You sound absolutely knackered. I hope you slept well, but knowing you, probably not... Mind you it must be hard to sleep when your whole body hurts.
Well done Richard. When you're back in the office I need to talk to you about sleep training!
Awesome Richard McChesney. Keep strong..
Your killing it!!! Keeping moving and smiling Richard...you're looking good and strong
sleep well Richard !!!!
Fun
Weather is still holding....
No wonder you're tired wow
Vloging is a great exercise to keep you thinking straight eh....
Amazing how familiar that all sounds. Strange that the mind seems to have the same response to such stress and sleep deprivation in different people.
Nice clip my friend! Glad to be in the first line of subscribers! Fully watched and subscribed with great appreciation! 👍
Thanks
I'm considering signing up this year. Have you discovered any coping mechanisms for bottom of foot pain? That's what I suffer from mostly too.
You should do it. It is an awesome race. I did it again last year but had to be rescued from the course after badly injuring my shin at 230 miles. Have a look at my 2017 and 2019 race reports on www.richardwalkslondon.com if you are interested. Regarding sore feet, your feet will always hurt in extremely long events. As they say, if it was easy, everyone would do it :)
@@richardmcchesney216 Thank you for your reply! Gosh, what a shame to have to pull out so far into it! I'll check out your reports. Thanks :)
How much planning did you have to do?
Hi. I planned the route in advance and used MapMyRun to keep me on track. My full report about the walk is here: richardwalkslondon.com/m25-motorway-circumnavigation/
Looks a bit moist, eh? Stay dry and I hope you get some rest in your down time.
