    / runseanierun (win a coros watch soon)
    I was bored one Friday night and instead of going to the pub I decided to run the height of Everest … and beyond just … for the craic :)
    A little while back (July 12th 2019) I decided to have a little fun on the epic mountains of the Reeks District, in the south west of Ireland…
    I did it for an Alzheimers/Dementia charity close to my own heart…
    FYI :the majestic Macgillycuddy's Reeks and namely Carrauntoohil (irelands highest peak) lies just outside my home town Killarney in a region they call the Kingdom (after watching this, you will understand why)
    Big thanks to Joe O’Leary, Damien Courtney, Neil Kelders, Harry Clifton, Eileen and Valerie O’Sullivan for assisting on the weekend.
    We also feature the local & international legends @Brian Byrne, John Lenihan, and Pat Falvey
    =============
    Video was produced by the adventure videographer Niall Foley with the help of James Maher and Marco Conte …and was brought to you with the help of these amazing partners :
    Air Relax …. You guys know them… as they have the best recovery solutions on the market (both in price and quality) and have supported my beloved Kerry Way Ultra. I love their compression boots !! And the massage gun is so effective its beautiful :) www.air-relax.eu & www.boosterspor...
    Port West…. Long time supporters of the Kerry Way ultra. They are the adventure shop to visit in Killarney! www.portwest.com (They sell the La Sportiva's that I wore when my Hoka's exploded during the challenge... and I soon learnt that La Sportiva is one tough brand ! )
    Coros Global … I have been outspoken about the quality of these gps watches and their next level customer service from well before they were a known brand. I was wearing the Coro Apex for this challenge. www.coros.com (use code COROS-Clifford for discount/accessory)

    Wow. Congratulations man!! That was a stunning trip. Loved it. Always brings a huge sense of pride to have grown up in those great hills. I always joke that Carrauntoohil is the same height as Everest but it fell over. I think you just stood it up again. Great film.

    My dearest brother. Well done. Fair play and all that but when you get down the hill you might cut your half of the hedge back at mom and dads house. Also its your turn to wash the dishes. Enough of the easy life now baby bro.

    I've just watched this Sean, that was an amazing achievement and a very professionally shot film. I needed some motivation , just DNF'd a race and need a re-set ahead of Arc100 in Jan. I hear you on the eating healthier, I just need to actually do it. 😁

    I know its the tallest mountain in Ireland but its really disrespectful to compare it to Everest, this is a little baby mountain. Nice production though!
