I ran and walked this too …the weather was brutal, but so glad I finished, first ultra for me and won’t be my last in the lakes …look forward to watching the second film
@@AlPepperRuns everyone who took part and got on that start line was a legend, didn’t expect it to be that tough …well done you and your mate for finishing 👏🏻👏🏻
Nice one Al. Well done for keeping up the enthusiasm. That rain was pretty unforgiving. I was slightly further up the road so made the track even muddier for you 😁. Looking forward to Part 2 .
Well that looked like fun! The worst thing about that statement is that I'm serious. Yes, yes, I've been told that there might be something wrong with me before.
@@neilcam haha, I know what you mean! There’s a strange pleasure in the effort required of ultra events, the harder the better in some cases! Although I would like an easy one now!
I did this one too although much slower than you 2 - was good to see what some of the end looked like as I did it in the dark in sheeting rain - glad to have finished. Well done!
@@emmaconnolly4877 I had about an hour in the rain to finish and that was enough! Massive well done for completing it! Time is irrelevant, we all completed it just the same!
@@Cam-peel92 it was tough! Overall it was actually doable, easier than others in fact, but it was just an absolute slog getting through it with all the mud.

@@derekpugh5457 massive well done Derek! I reckon you’ve got a tough one under your belt now, next one should be a walk in the (national) park!

Great stuff Al. Looking forward to part 2 👊🏻
@@IanMcalpine-ep9fc thanks Ian! Appreciate it!
Good to see Smid enjoying himself 😂
@@AlastairCunningham-g4z haha, he had a great time didn’t he! Reckon he’d have ran it twice if they’d let him!
@@AlPepperRuns tbf to Smid, someone I know did it & said they hated it from the first minute to the last minute 😂
@@AlastairCunningham-g4z ironically felt my best 60km in
@@ultrasmid I’ve only managed 50k twice so doubt I’ll ever do a 60k warm up 🤣
25:36 Finally some proof I was there.. haven’t made it in to any other pics yet.. was definitely a very moist first half 😂
@@jamstaa69 haha, it wasn’t just a dream! Yeah, there weren’t many photographers were there. I didn’t see myself in many either.
Smid needs to cheer up.loved it.thankyou.
Haha, it was a tough shift! I’ll let him off!
Horrendous conditions! Well done for sticking it out!
@@sunderlandhughes thanks David! Got another in a couple of weeks… I deserve some good weather!
A great day - even in the pouring rain.
@@MrsHuntontheTrails it was some adventure wasn’t it! Although if Mother Nature wants to help out next time… I’ll have a dry one please!
@@AlPepperRuns and I'll stick to cheering and filming B-roll...... ☔🙂

@@huntonthetrails haha, so you were to blame! Huge well done though! Did you film it?
I did yes, but not with the same level of enthusiasm 😂. Great event though.

Oof, that looks rock hard. That glorious Lakes weather. Looking forward to part 2. 👍
@@TheHeggahegga no wonder it’s so green and lovely! It rains all the time! Thank you!
Im quite literally (well, in my head) shouting at my laptop saying Don't give up! Keep going!
@@kevinscott4938 haha, that’s brilliant! Stay tuned for part 2 to see how we get on!
That looks solid! Great effort guys. Looking forward to part 2!
