Congrats, Jeff. That was such a triumph especially with the conditions. Best of luck to Audrée in her race!
Great achievement! Hopefully say hello at eigar this weekend. I am running the 17k on the Saturday!
Have a great run! Definitely do say hello if you see us.
Massive congrats on completing the Bob Jeff!
Interesting bit of trivia for you, all Park Runs in the UK are 5k, and I think there are almost 800 park runs across the country. It's a great fun community for those of us who take running a bit less serious!
Happy to see you're enjoying Europe so much, enjoy the rest of your adventures this year.
Congratulations on completing the Bob - really enjoyed the footage especially as it showed how you went up Scafell via Lords Rake and West Wall traverse by the looks of it. Typical Cumbrian weather 😉 Look forward to the longer film.
Brilliant Jeff and congrats, You`ve done our little part of the world proud....the Lakes are a beautiful place.
Good old blighty …cold wet & miserable, in summer autumn winter
Ah you came down to the Southwest! I live in Bristol which is only 12 miles from Bath, would have been great to bump into the two of you!
Well done - solid effort!
You know Ben and Sarah! My youtube worlds combine.
what’s their channel? trying to find them but can’t seem to!
@@enchantedmindmeditation Ben Parkes. Sarah has a channel too but rarely posts, its Sarah Place. They also have a second channel i think its called Ben Parkes - The Extra Mile.
Congratulations! And happy belated birthday. What an amazing summer you are having! I'm so glad you are sharing this footage with us
Another great vid got my bg this friday
Lovely video. Congratulations on your Bob Graham achievement, I'm really looking forward to the full film, I grew up hiking in the Lake District
Have an amazing time in Switzerland! Grindelwald is beautiful, some of those trails are insanely steep!
Awesome achievement! Congratutions
i bet that cat at the end on your window ledge, surveyed your room of trekking poles and hydration packs and said "ah, hell no."
Wonderful recap of the Bob. Huge congrats Jeff. Glad you enjoyed the UK and I'm gutted that I didn't get to see you Guys at Hamstead. Next time. You will have to come back! 😊
Awesome effort Jeff! Amazing to hit your target with such tough weather, which can make or break an attempt. Rest well.
Oh good luck for the Eiger race, that is only a couple hours from here it seems. So best of luck this weekend for the race
Love you got a parkrun in Jeff! Parkrun is what got me into running - went once and just couldn't stop going back it's such a friendly environment where nobody cares how fast or slow you're going!
parkrun does not vary in distance, it is always 5k. And it is always free - worldwide.
Just hiked Scafell today while here on holiday. While I am road runner I can not imagine doing 23 hours of these hikes. Congratulations on an amazing accomplishment.
That is quite the accomplishment!! Super congrats!!
Congrats Jeff! Such a great race! Good luck to Audree. I have my first trail half marathon next weekend after a long period of injury. Excited to get back out there and watching your videos gets me even more excited!
Also, Happy Birthday!
Great work Jeff! And cheers for the trip summary. Enjoyable as ever.
Nice one Jeff! Myself and my lady are in the Lakes now and its raining 🌧 very very much and windy arghhh. All the best for Aurdree's race too.
haha that was funny about the "pants", don't worry they are tough cookies, they run in shorts even in the snow
Massive congratulations Jeff! (Ohh our Bowland Chris is in the video too!)
Trust me, they were both wishing they had pants then!
Fantastic and inspiring! Thanks for sharing
Well done for the BG round.
Lol, you picked the most hilly parkrun in London:)
Congrats Jeff!! You absolutely killed it!
Congratulations again! Amazing result and awesome video! Now, fingers crossed for Audrée!!
Many congratulations on the Bob, great achievement - and welcome to the Parkrun family too!
Congrats Jeff, that’s some achievement! It’s been great watching you over this side of the world after watching all your other adventures, and it seems so strange seeing you do a Parkrun! Enjoy your continued travels and best of luck to Audree in her race.
Absolute respect Jeff🤙🏽
Just saying i'm not from running community yet))) but i love sports + nature = 🫶
Wanna tell something.
As for me it's not just about running for exercise to burn some calories wich is also great.
That's contains a lot more and the main thing is to growing up as a human being.
Through running on different levels there are such lessons like: consistency, discipline, mental & physical hard work, the friendship as it is and difference between to be in "your community" - (same goals same passion same views ...) and your life out of that, how traveling is important they give you more than you could expected in various ways, supporting is a real thing you can't be alone to break your own walls on the way to the top, the power of nature her beauty and the dark side too her lessons are deep as well.
Filming such experience full of all spectrum of emotions, '' life lessons '' and so much more that people can learn from them and get motivated and watch how things can be done with right people around you.
Your way to share the story through videos with your own unique edits: picking the frames, music, voiceovers and so. It's damn haaard but this so much worth it in the end. Keep doing. Keep pushing. Keep growing. Keep doing what you love.
...
Took me a while to get back to watch this one, congrats on the round, Park runs are great. If a 5k doesn’t fit your schedule, run there and back, make it any distance you need.
Absolutely loved watching this one. Congrats on the Bob. I live in London but I’m French so it’s funny to see you in my neck of the woods!
Congratulations Jeff & Good Luck Audrey 🎉
Congratulations Jeff! I really hope to run into you and Audrée in Grindelwald. It would be nice to meet you in person after watching countless hours of your adventures online. I‘ll keep an eye out for Audrée on the E101 trails! It looks like we are in for a great (hot) race!
I love your positivity! I think that lousy wind would have cracked me! What an awesome achievement. 🎉
Congrats, Jeff and a delayed happy birthday! 🥳 The fact that you continue to push yourself and attempt these amazing feats of physical endurance while being in your early 40s is truly inspiring. Maybe that's not a big deal in more progressive countries like Canada, US or the UK, but for us living in other parts of the world where the general mentality is more on the gloomy side and where the consensus is that after you get in your 30s you're pretty much toast this is a good reminder that progress stops happening when you stop trying.
Also, you don't look a day over 32 so do share with the rest of your skin-care routine 😂
I loved this video. Congratulations on your achievement. Love the mix of running (trail and training and fun) and travel. Thank you.
Great video & well done on the BGR in very challenging conditions. You mention that parkruns vary in distance - nope, all 5km (other than the version for children) + they are always free regardless of where you are in the world.
Ah, thanks for clarifying that!
Congrats Jeff, great effort! I now keep my fingers crossed for Audree and her adventure in CH
What a great recap. Looking forward to more epic footage from Eiger mountains. Enjoy!
Huge congrats Jeff! What an amazing achievement. You must be over the moon. I lived in the Lake District for a couple of years in my 20’s. Such a beautiful part of the world. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Well done Jeff awesome achievement. Been a dream of mine ever since i learnt about Billy Bland breaking the record back in the day and all the great fell races. You are part of a great club. If you haven't already read it I recommend a feet in the clouds. Great read concerning the history of fell running and the Bob Graham.
Amazing Jeff! Congratulations on your incredible Bob effort. By the way, that shot of Audree looking over the valley - WOW
Well done Jeff. Adventure races and routes come and go but the BGR has been there for 90 years and will be there for many more than 90 to come. It's like a badge of achievement for the ages which makes it special. By the way Parkruns are always 5k.
Congrats Jeff! That was quite a challenge. As for that wind???? Good on you and your crew.
Awesome video Jeff, it has been great following your time in the UK! Looks like you experienced the full spectrum of British summer weather 😄
Congratulations ❤
To you and all the Team You have some
Awesome people Around you ❤
Congratulations Jeff. I will be saving this to watch later today. Something to look forward too!
Brilliant stuff Jeff, congratulations!! Glad you had a top time over here.
Fantastic achievement Jeff. And looking like you enjoyed it too.
Again congratulations Jeff on a dream realized! From an outsiders perspective you looked to be just clicking along the entire round like clockwork. Just a wonderful demo of how well your training and fitness has shaped up to be! You both still have so many adventures still to go this season! It is such a privilege and a wonderful experience to be able to travel and participate away from home for such a duration.
There's something cozy about being able to watch these vlog type videos and have a cup of coffee to enjoy them with :) Can't wait for the next one and thank you for keeping us all dreaming and engaged with our own goals as well, these certainly are a great motivation and inspiration for myself.
Congrats, Jeff! And wow, that weather sure did change from the time you prepped to race day. Awesome effort! 👍
Well done on the Bob. What a machine, as well as a wonderful film maker and all round good guy.
Sub 22 on the Bob Graham. Absolutely amazing, well done.
Wow you really did have to tough it out Jeff 💪🏻 Thx for sharing and wonderful to to you running with Ben. 🎉❤
Nice video. Well done on the Bob but parkruns are ALWAYS 5K (unless they're junior ones)
well done Jeff and a Happy Belated Birthday to you ! Can't wait for your take on Eiger Ultra Trail .. keep the videos coming !
Congrats, Jeff! 👏👏 You make it look easy but I know it’s not. I always look forward to seeing your adventures. Great work! 😊❤ Good luck to Audree with her Swiss race!

Superb Jeff, congratulations on the Bob and top Canadian to boot!! You make it look easy - a credit to your meticulous preparation !
Congrats Jeff! Great result given those insane weather conditions. Thanks for documenting! 🙌
Congratulations on your BGR, Jeff. I completed mine two weeks earlier, 16-17 June (in much better conditions!) and enjoyed reliving the experience through your video.
Great stuff, Jeff, congratulations on making it round in a pretty decent time even if conditions weren't the best! I've got the BGR on my plan for next year, having recced a few of the sections over the past few years.
Inspiring movie, thanks for this!
