Another great video and I was very happy to see the return of “Is that the winning number?”. It looked a very tough and boggy course, don’t forget your camera for the next one!
Just discovered your channel on Sunday morning when I was looking for inspiration for this very run! I did the 1/2 marathon and wasn't feeling too confident due to a recent bad cold hindering my training. Took it easy and really enjoyed it, even the mud! Nice to relive sections of the course through your video. Cheers!
Thank you for watching! The mud was unavoidable so it was best to just jump in and enjoy it, wasn’t it! Are you back at 100% now or still taking it easy?
@@AlPepperRuns Absolutely! No point trying to stay clean. It's all part of the fun. I've had a few days off after Sunday and planning to get back out there tomorrow. Think I might sign up for the Christmas run at Chopwell so I've got something to aim for.
Nice one Al. Love the watch ⌚️Looking to upgrade my watch soon, hopefully to a garmin Fenix 7. Been a few runs this year where having the route gpx on my wrist would’ve been handy, particularly the Isaac tea trail
Thanks Ian! Yeah, I got lost a couple of times during Isaac’s! I’ve barely scratched the surface so far but can’t wait to load up a map and use it properly!
@@neilcottiss4030 thanks Neil! I can’t be completely sure but I’m pretty confident I’ll have had Brooks Cascadias on! I have the Calderas as well but the Cascadias are maybe the better all rounder!
Cheers @AlPepperRuns . I'll give them a look. Usually run in Brooks Adrenaline and looking for an all round trail shoe so would be good to stick with Brooks
I enjoy the‘every week’ reality of your vlogs. Thanks for bringing us along.
My pleasure! Thank you for watching, I really appreciate it.
Rally enjoyed that Al. Great energy mate. Couldn’t stop watching. 🍿
Thanks Stephen! Appreciate it!
As always Al very enjoyable , looking forward to the next one ,
Cheers John! Had a lot of fun with this one… my shoes still need cleaning mind you.
Another great video great scenery but it looked tough well done sir
Thanks Paul! It was rock hard but really fun!
Like the content ❤
Appreciate it mate, thank you!

Thanks Andy, I had to get my catchphrase in! Note to self… be more organised!
I was just thinking this morning that I could use a Pepper Run.
Ha, good timing Reilly! Hope you enjoyed it.

@@mbrabs9204 nice! See you there if you do!
Awesome job mate
Cheers Jono! Where are you at next? I see you’re putting the miles in which is awesome!
@@AlPepperRunswill be at the chopwell Xmas run, but putting the miles in for the Tyne Bridges ultra

The fir trees that have shed their needles will be larch - the only deciduous variety about.
John, I’m chuffed that you watched the video and doubly so that you’ve answered my question! Absolutely class.
I’m sure Loftus Poultry Run in December is in your calendar for a cheeky road/xc run?
I just checked it out! It’s the same day as the Chopwell Christmas Run. Thanks for the heads up though!
Great vid. What trail shoes did you use for this one?

“There’s so many skid marks…” not a comment you hear every day on You Tube. 😂
Haha, I guess not! Apologies for the late reply as well!

Brilliant! John answered my query about fir trees and you got the song! I’m chuffed as.
I'll slipstream you lmao
Haha, it’s not as if he needs it anyway! He finished 17th!
