The Year Of The Bob - Training and Running The Bob Graham Round
Вставка
- Опубліковано 7 лип 2019
- Can you go from a non runner to a runner and then complete a Bob Graham Round in just a year?
The Bob Graham Round is a classic fell running challenge set in the English Lake District. Only 2000 runners have managed to complete the round since its creation in 1932. It consists of 104km distance, 8,000 metres of ascent and running a loop of 42 peaks in less than 24 hours. Only a third of people who start the Bob Graham Round finish in under the 24hrs.
This film follows Ian Palmer as he attempts the Bob Graham Round only 12 months after he started running.
I wonder if everyone watching this realises what a legend Rob is!
No, they probably don’t.
Inspirational film, thank you. I hope you stay well!
I did similar in 2008/2009. I had a long history of cycling but mainly only commuting and touring rather than racing. I trained up to do a long challenge cycle ride (225km/4500m) in 2008. I then decided on the BGR after reading Feet in the Clouds on holiday in the Lakes. I starting running for first time since school in October 2008 aged 42. Ran a half marathon in January and did the Fellsman in April. I completed the BGR in July 2009 in 22 hours 20 mins (a remarkably similar time!) with the help of Steve Birkinshaw and others. I've been running ever since except for short periods off with a broken leg and sciatica / back pain. Strangely I stopped running when I was at school because of knee pain.
enjoyed that Ian - good to meet you and chat this morning. Well done.
Hi Bill, thanks for making me run faster than my one speed plod this morning!
Well done to Ian. There are things in life that can easily create apathy and or defeat but he showed us here that it's all a state of mind. Good going. Mark
Amazing achievement and excellent film!
Great achievement. Well done mate! Inspirational. Video tells a great story, captures achievement and shows off the best part of the UK. Hope that I bump into you along the way.
Legend, bloody great music as well!
well done Ian, welcome to the club. Be proud.
Rinaldo's Speciality Coffee & Tea cheers for watching
Great run, and excellent film. Planning that coverage can't have been easy so kudos there too.
Go on Ian Palmer, you teach the best lessons
Well done! Brilliant film.
Brilliant Ian. I only managed 3 sections. Kudos!
What a fantastic film, Ian is something else...just incredible👏
Fabulous...and a great story too.
Thanks for watching, please share it around.
Great meeting you! Thanks for the advice, have a great night! Al and Birch 🤙🏼
Any time! hope you come to the lakes more often @ipalmer71
This is great loved it!
Solid! Nice going!
I.P. = LEGEND!!
Great piece if inspiration and well filmed.
Thank you! Cheers!
Palmer my man. You have truly inspired.....others, not me!! It makes XC racing look like a gentle stroll in the woods. Now, stop that running nonsense and come back to two wheels.
Amazing achievement
Thank you, making the film was the hardest bit😂
@@streemer1 its very inspiring, i am training to walk 35 miles in a Day, but thinking of taking up running after many many years, my training for the last week was, Sunday walking 26.5 miles, monday cycling 8 miles, Tuesday walking 6 miles with a backpack weighing 15 pound, wednesday walking 6 miles with a backpack weighing 15 pounds, thursday cycling 13 miles, friday cycling 14 miles, and Saturday walking 18.5 miles, going walking today sunday not sure how far yet, i am 60years old, is this a reasonable level of fitness as i am unsure, i have a pair of trail shoes salomon, which i have had for the past 2 years, i got them from the PDSA where i did voluntary work, your feedback would be really useful. Kind regards!
@@barryhossin2000 sounds like its going well, what feedback are you after?
Great video Ian, one for the mountain festival me thinks. O and good effort on the BG as well ;-)
