Welcome to Film My Trail Run. Dave here and my goal is to help promote the sport of trail running. I love running adventures and challenges and by starting this channel I have created yet another excuse to spend more time on the trails.

How does the course profile compare to somewhere like the Dublin Marathon
@filmmytrailrun
@filmmytrailrun 5 дней назад
Hmm, that’s a good question and the short answer is I really don’t remember other than the fact that neither one is all that hilly. What I will say is that Dublin has much more of a BIG city marathon feel with big crowds right along the course.

​@@filmmytrailrun I'm thinking of registering for next year. 80km would definitely be too much for me but do you think the 47km race is a good introduction to an ultra? I've done a handful of road marathons (I usually finish a bit under 3h30mn) but I have no idea how I would cope on trail with incline.
@filmmytrailrun
@filmmytrailrun 12 дней назад
If you have run 3.30 marathons you are definitely able for the 47km. I’m not sure if you have been running trails already but you do need to get out in the hills because different muscles are worked. My advice would be to get out and recce the course if you have the opportunity and just go for it. You never learn as much as you do on your first ultra. All the best with it and enjoy the journey, after all, that is really the reward.

Ha ha, thanks for reaching out. I know, right? Basically, between working a full time on site job and, more importantly, trying to cram in as many adventures as I can before I return to Ireland early in the new year, something had to give. I love making the videos so, like a volcano, consider me dormant but definitely not extinct. Or, as a wise man once said “I’ll be back” (spoken in a heavy Austrian accent).

Great video man and Congrats on the PR! Is there anything you wish you would have had prior to the race starting after you checked in your bag? I'm running chicago this year and just trying to prepare gear. thanks.
@filmmytrailrun
@filmmytrailrun 25 дней назад
Thanks, no, kept it simple. 6-8 gels during the race with water. Then some comfortable clothes in the drop bag at the end. One tip I would give you though is: if you are arranging to meet other runners after the marathon I would recommend meeting while you’re still “inside”, maybe near the fountain somewhere. Once you go outside to the recommended meeting area it is crazy busy. Enjoy yourself, it’s a great, super well organized world major 💪🏃🏻‍♂️❤️

So you say...Dont do it without poles? I did it twice (succeeded once - timed out day 3 1st time around - by 5 mins) and poles wouldnt have helped me. In fact they would have hindered me. You need less weight, and less faff on CWU. But I guess - if you feel like poles would help you then go for it. But you can indeed do it without poles. the one I failed? 2021 - COVID, single tents, and brillliant sunshine in August... The one I succeeded - 2022. 8 days and the worst CWU weather on all the events history. Non stop rain, floods, high winds, high drop out rate, and I was the (one of if not the) oldest to finish at almost 62. As far as navigation - do the routes as recces. learn the key points where you can make mistakes. I recced 4,5,6,7 and I had already run day 1-3. That helped enormously. And as far as food - I loded up on days 1 and 2 with bars and gels, I collapsed with no energy end of day 2. Day 3 I completed with mild hypothermia. But I switched to sugar diet mid way (fizzy drinks, tic tacs), loaded up with soups and chips in the evening. and end of day 4 I bought a lot of sugar loaded food to sustain me through to the end. Shoes - Altra Timp 4 wide toed shoes and soft on the feet but admittedly less grip than some (no blisters - duplicate replacement shoes swapped end of day 5 - take at least 2 pairs). In 2022, with it being so wet, it didnt make a lot of difference in my opinion. Good video. But I say again - you can do the run without poles.
@filmmytrailrun
@filmmytrailrun 3 месяца назад
Apologies for the slow response, I’ve been off RU-vid for a little while. 2022 was the year I did it also. A wet one to be sure. Can you do CWU without poles? Absolutely, but I am so used to them now that they really add very little faff and I wouldn’t be without them in any mountainous race longer than about 50k. Sounds like you had to experiment with what food worked for you. To finish in 2022 is an added badge of honor. 270 started, 104 finished. Still one of my fondest memories. Planning to go back as a volunteer at some stage in the future. I hope your running is going well and you have more great adventures ahead 🏃🏻‍♂️⛰️💪

@@filmmytrailrun I have been here for 5 years, pre co-vid and got married here and have a daughter already. Will be coming back to the UK next year but just for education for the children, after that i will return to live in Vietnam as it is a lot safer in Vietnam than in the UK and we dont have immigration problems like we do in the UK, as im sure you are aware off. I am also an ultra runner, i have completed the Moab 240 in Utah and have done a solo run of the coast to coast and the pennine way prior to me coming the Vietnam and thats why i appreciate your film of the cape wrait run - what do you think about running in one way the entire length rather than broken stages as you did ? thanks a lot mate.
