    So much stuff I want to say about this video. Gorgeous scenery - It's been about a decade since I was last in the Brecon Beacons and now I want to book another trip. The food at the end - love it when you've been exercising all day and you can get anything you want, 100% guilt free! Was nervous to watch you running though. A few years ago, in the Lakes, a friend of mine took a little tumble out hiking, but landed badly on shale leading to many stitches. As we waited in A&E, another man who'd taken a much worse fall (as he was trail running with speed) got chatting to us and his injuries were x100 worse. It's put me off ever wanting to try and I'm always a bit nervous when I see others running, but you guys were sensible - stress levels were low when watching this! Fab video ❤️

    I was so lucky to visit Brecon Beacon a couple years ago, when visiting Wales. We actually stayed in an airbnb house (old farm house) inside the park. Loved it. And my hikes through the park.

    As a car guy, seeing you stand on Colin’s bonnet like that made a little bit of me die inside 😫

    That looked chilly and a bit challenging. I really like the pub idea at the end...thats where i would have been the whole time!

      Hahaha the pub was SO much more worth it after the big hike!

    You can either cut the straws of your bottle in your pack so they are shorter. Or I actually have this same running vest there are little pockets at the top you can tuck them into

    Trail running looks so much fun, I'd love to try it! I've heard great things about Hokas too, hopefully you're satisfied with your shoe choice 😁 And the scenery is absolutely stunning!

  • @amdelorey
    @amdelorey 2 роки тому

    Great video Christianne. If these shoes don't work for you in the long run there are lots of other trail runners so keep looking. Many folks find Hokas too wobbly and gortex shoes too hot. Great views. Have been wanting to trail run in Wales!

    Hahahha- those Welsh pronunciations.
    A little trick to remember is one 'F' is pronounced 'V' (two 'ff's is a normal 'f') and Y when on it's own means 'the' and is said phonetically like 'ughh' (which also conveniently rhymes with 'the') so Pen y Fan is "Pen-ugh-Van"

    Way to go! Just make sure you don't run downhill, save your knees for the long run 😅🙂

    Have you thought about doing some of the Camino de Santiago? It looks like it would be a good one to do some running on! Awesome video! Loved it!

    The trail looks so nice!! Thank you for taking us along :D
    Also I was wondering whether music stop around 11:05 up to 11:22 was intentional hahah

    • @ettinabeiboer99

      It was not intentional 😭 there was deffo music there haha I’m not sure why YT cut it out. I’ve put some replacement music from the UA-cam audio library in there now just processing 🥲

    The Y in Pen-y-Fan and Pen-y-Big is pronounced more like 'er' not 'e'. Also fan is pronounced van, Welsh uses a different alphabet and thus different has different sounds.

    That was a nice looking trail I still want to invite you to the Adirondacks area of New York State the hiking trails are unlimited. Also Christiana I held right there with most likes for a little bit on your last video. It was fun to see if I would remain top but I eventually lost. ❤️👍🙂

    Longtime trail runner here, Hokas are awful!Try looking into less cushioned shoes.
    I swear by salomons-way better for your foot mechanics long term.
    I tried hokas for a few years. Nothing but foot problems, but everyone’s foot is different. The only thing I will say is less is more and hoka has way too much! If you roll an ankle in them, it’s treacherous.
