Just did my UTMB MCC race in the Xodus Ultra’s today. They were just awesome. Great choice. Just watched all the TDS runners walk to the bus to take them to the start in Courmayeur. Good luck Loyd!
Hey 👋 we spoke near the start finish line for the utmb last Saturday! Quality vt's dude and we have just got home to uk a few days ago....... Great Content
Great video Loyd, the whole UTMB series you've done has been very good and I've appreciated all your work. Great to hear you emphasising the emergency bivi bag over a foil blanket, totally agree. Hope your TDS is going to plan 👍🏻
Cheer Gary 👍 Really glad you've enjoyed all the build up content on the channel, its been great fun making it! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏😊
Loyd, what a true trail running adventurer you are but so dedicated in bringing your viewers and followers along with such incredible content and opinions, so from myself, thank you. Bon chance for the big race and look forward to seeing your arrival in Chamonix, best wishes, Mark
Agree on pulsar trail pro, go to choice in the UK but went for slab ultra 3 on UTMB, just more reliable over the terrain. Also said hi in the first mile of the UTMB race as I saw you at the side of the road but it was all very hectic! Hopefully get chance to say hi properly at another event.
Great content as always…..Good Luck! I’m a complete novice runner that is just starting to get the ultra Buzz. Recently purchased the Salomon 12 race vest & Saucony Peregrine 12 after following this channel. Would love to know more about the Navigation aspect on ultra events & how you started. Again good luck & keep up the great work
Awesome following you live, Loyd. Just heading to bed here in UK as you & Steve head up to Hauteluce. Absolutely brilliant & loving the video clips on UTMB of your CPs. Looking in fine form
Great choice Loyd, I hope your kit serves you well and you smash the race. I just bagged a £52 pair of Reebok floatride energy 4 Adventure trail shoes. A bit more Cush and more lugs than the Road version (r4adventure!)with a discount code. Not in the same league as your mountain beasts but for the money will hopefully be a great light trail shoe for me and my parkrun visit to Trelissick this weekend. Just couldn’t get on with the high arch in the hoka speedgoats and mafate with my flat plates of meat. All the best Loyd with the race and look forward to the video!
And there it is!!! Followed you and Steve all the way and I must say at the CP cameras you made it look easy! 😂 Awesome to see you cross the finish and be greeted by Liga too. Just brilliant! nice one Loyd! 🎉👍
It’s strange to think that, as I watched this on Monday morning in California, you are already on the move amidst the excited crowd, running and climbing through the night. Best of luck on your adventure, and thanks for this great series of videos. I briefly had palpitations during the run-up to the shoe reveal. The drama!
Great series Loyd and good luck with the race. I see views and subscribers are ticking up (and well deserved,) Keep up the good work , that youtube algorithm will soon be doing its stuff 👍
Glad I bought those shoes on yours and several other reviewers recommendation. Felt great on a 25 mile long run right out of the box. Have an amazing TDS!!! Can't wait to see the race footage!
Thanks for the video Lloyd, as promised on your response to my recent Strava comment 👍. Have now purchased some Xodus Ultra for my forthcoming 50km race at Ladybower reservoir in October. Hope it all went well for you in Chamonix 👍
Hope you have a great race Loyd! You'll do great I'm sure from all the training 💪🏻hope it's nice conditions for you! I've got a few videos to catch up on! Can't wait to see the race footage though mate! Have a great time and best of luck!
Great review to watch for someone taking on a mountain ultra or where race conditions could change and you need that confidence in your mandatory kit. Liked the way you gave the reasons why behind each piece and definitely agree with the bivvy over the blanket choice. I’ll be following you and the Pirate this week!
Good luck mate!! finally ordered my SG5's!! i'm excited but but i'm not sure when to arrive coz it's from AUS .. still no stocks on size 11 in PH been months waiting already lol
I'd personally go for the Xodus Ultra because it is a lot lighter but the Trailfly is still a nice shoe to run in. Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏😊
It really depends on how wide your forefoot is? I'd say the width is good in the Xodus Ultra but it's not super wide like an Altra 👍 Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏
Unfortunately they sold out along time ago! We are however working on a new Run4Adventure running cap and they should be available soon 🤞🤞 Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙏😊
The best thing to do is go on the UTMB race website, all the info needed is on there 👍 I have to say it's not the most straight forward race entry system but it's worth all the effort. Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊

Yep. Best choice. I'd have dumped this channel if he chose SG5 lol, I've come to dislike them.
Here is my like. Come on Loyd!!!! The tds race is coming!!!!. SAUCONY ENDORPHIN FOR EVER!!!!!!A nice week for everyone. ☀️🏃♂️☀️

Hi what was the Solomon vest called you are wearing pls?
Great blogs and good luck
I alrready return endorfine shoes because foam start to tear in only 2 runs when i hit rocks.No innov,alto,topo,la sportiva?For me mutant works best.
Smash it!!!
Just loaded you up to follow on the UTMB website!
Me too. Go Loyd!
Thanks Phil 🙏
Thanks Helen 🙏
Xodus vs Trailfly Ultra G 300? Just curious, because I can pickup a pair of the trailfly's on super discount right now.
I'd personally go for the Xodus Ultra because it is a lot lighter but the Trailfly is still a nice shoe to run in. Hope this helps and thanks for watching 🙏😊
@@Run4Adventure Thanks for the info!
loyd which snooker cue did you use, left or right pole ? 🤣 ....well done for completing it under 40
Thanks Steve 👍
It was a tough 39hrs in the mountains but we made it back in one piece! Thanks for the support 🙏
Did you use the Harrier sizing guide to select your fixed length or have you used adjustable poles and know your size from experience?
I've always used a 125cm running pole lenght, it's just right for my height (6ft 1") 👍
Lloyd would you recommend the Exodus Ultra even if you have a wider forefoot?
It really depends on how wide your forefoot is? I'd say the width is good in the Xodus Ultra but it's not super wide like an Altra 👍
Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏
How do I get one of those purple Run4Adventure hats?
Unfortunately they sold out along time ago! We are however working on a new Run4Adventure running cap and they should be available soon 🤞🤞
Thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙏😊
How do u enter this race
The best thing to do is go on the UTMB race website, all the info needed is on there 👍
I have to say it's not the most straight forward race entry system but it's worth all the effort. Hope this helps and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Hi, should a man wear a jockstrap whilst running?
I've never used one for running 🤔
