Well done Sam! fantastic vid. I agree with some of the comments, you did make it look a lot easier than most would imagine. Your 2 year journey to this has inspired me to start running, just for basic health and fitness though.. not planning any of that ultra marathon malarkey 😂. But seriously it's a good way to show people the journey and what others can achieve through chipping away little by little. Hope you smash that 100 subscribers soon. Well done again!! 🤘🙌💪

Well done LEGEND for completing the Lakeland 50! It was a great day and night. Congrats on completing it in under 13 hours. Think that means you can do the Lakeland 100 next year. Good luck with that! Also, well done on reaching a 100 subs. I can see you have 101 now!

I'm gutted to say I'm not going to be in the UK next year otherwise I'd definitely be mad enough to sign up for it! Yes, just dipped over the 100 subs mark so now I've got to pay the consequences somehow 😂. Enjoying a nice break in Malta right now so I'll be getting on that as soon as I'm back!

Great video mate & great run! Training for my first 50K, so I have been watching a lot of ultra videos (doing some running too😁). I really appreciate the “just your average guy” vids. Definitely make it feel more achievable. Keep it up.

Awesome Michael! Have you been to an ultra event before? I can tell you this, almost everyone there is your average guy or gal. It is comforting to be honest when you look around and see seemingly ordinary people doing extraordinary things. If you put yourself out there, you can make some friends for life ultra running. Even though it can be lonely at times, it's an amazing bonding experience. Thanks for the sub!

Congratulations, what a fantastic achievement! Looked like a tough ultra to pick for your first one but some great scenery. Must have been an amazing feeling to finish, epecially after all those tough moments that you had to overcome. I want to do an Ultra one day, not sure when but it's going to happen.

Thanks. Only 50% of the 100mile runners finished. The 50mile had quite a high finish number, I think around 92% from memory. You have 24hours to complete it though so it is open for those who might just want to walk it. Next is Athens Marathon in November and then hopefully another ultra in the first quarter of next year. I'm sure I'll fit stuff in between but I'm enjoying the rest at the moment!

Hi paul, thanks for stopping by. I lived the event, I endeavour to do the 100 in a couple of years when theres no more covid haha. I think my lomhestvtraining run was either 32 or 36 miles 🤔 I did a video on the too i think haha. I have let all my training slip away but I am determined when i get back to the uk to put all my efforts into reaching the 100 mile someday.
