Beautiful running footage dear friends! Lovely! Thanks for taking us with you in those amazing places! Best wishes!

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you very much, that’s lovely of you to say 😊

@tworunningbrooms 2 года назад

Stunning countryside. You conquered the heat and the undergrowth.

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you, only just though. The heat became very draining by the 40 mile mark. I opted for paracetamol and a caffeine gel which seemed to help a little, well enough to limp over the line!!

@christopherhillam7286 Год назад

Hi. Thanks for the film. I am currently umming and arring about entering having DNFed an 80 mile route last weekend. Looks a spectacular course and through my favourite of the Dales in Swaledale. Well done. 💪🏼👏🏼👏🏼

@TrailRunningCouple Год назад

Thank you, we loved this low key event. Cheap as chips and aid stations too. What’s not to like!!

@Climbeta 2 года назад

Great video, thanks for pointing me in the direction once or twice. Great to spot myself on your video twice

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you! Great day wasn’t it, albeit a little on the warm side!!

Can't believe what a small world it is. I've been watching you guys since lockdown. Thought I may bump into you on your travels. I met your mum and dad instead. I service their boiler. I love your dogs, got loads of kisses. Lol

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Haha, small world indeed! My mum was telling me about you earlier! Thanks for watching, appreciate it. She said you love the Lakes like we do, how can you not?!

@timward3539 2 года назад

Well done for taking on the run and the heat. Lovely to see God's own in all its summer glory! Have your boys shown any interest in running? Not that distance of course!! Keep getting those miles in.

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you Tim, much appreciated. The route was very scenic indeed though hard with the heat. As for the boys running, not yet!! 😂

@martinpenrice 2 года назад

Grand video as always. Really hot out there great work getting out there

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thanks Martin, appreciate your comments as always 👍

@northender2006 2 года назад

Well done both, amazing in the hot weather.

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you, very tough day and so glad to make it to the end!

@CotswoldTrailRunner 2 года назад

Well done both! That looked both lovely and brutal. I don't fair well in those unprotected hot conditions. I hate flies as much as you! The further you go and sweatier you get the more they come at you! Well done.

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you, appreciate it! I’m surprised I got to the end to be fair as the heat started to play it’s part around the 40 mile mark. A couple of paracetamol and lots of fluids helped. Just not built for running in the heat but hate to give it and as for those pesky flies 😡 😂

@painterman235 2 года назад

You made it look easy even in that heat!

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Definitely not easy, we both had our moments! Thank you 😊

@runtothetrails 2 года назад

Great work. Arm sleeves seemed to work well. Must have been punishing for you both all the way🌞🌞. Camera fottage is excellent. Thanks for sharing.

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thanks Stephen, surprisingly they do work! It’s crazy how adding a layer can make you feel cooler but must be something along perspiration being soaked up and dried quicker - or something like that 😂

@KC_Cort 2 года назад

Well done on completing that in the current heat we are having, that was probably much harder than it should of been! Amazing views and scenery! Hope you did breathe in too many flies 😊

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thanks Karen, ~50 miles is no joke no matter the temperature but on Saturday it was definitely a different kind of struggle. Still, glad to come through it though took its toll by the end. Those pesky flies were horrendous!! 😂

@KC_Cort 2 года назад

@@TrailRunningCouple 50 miles should not be taken lightly at all, and it’s an immense amount of miles to cover, but you both should be so proud and elated at what you have achieved 😊

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

@@KC_Cort We are, thank you so much 😊

@TheHikingHermit 2 года назад

Not the best weather for running but I know from doing running events myself you have to roll with what you're given on the day for any event. Very well done for doing it tho. I had to laugh at the bloke on one of the summits giving you a funny look as if to say "What, running, are they nuts?" ha ha.

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thanks Paul, getting used to the looks we sometimes get now. I think I’d have given the same look if I were him! Tough tough day out 🥵

@tworunningbrooms 2 года назад

Runners going to do what runners are going to do..m

@classicalruns1245 2 года назад

Those open skies with those wispy clouds were absolutely beautiful! Congrats on another run even with the heat!

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you, I don’t think the camera captured the full story. It really was a stunning day with breathtaking views albeit a little too warm! 😊

@NorthernFellRunning 2 года назад

That must have been tough! Bring back the cold miserable English weather eh guys? 🤣🤣🤣 Well done 😎👍

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Very tough! Love the cold dark days on the fells and in the mountains, it’s what makes us! If I was meant for warm weather I wouldn’t have been born in this country!!! 😂 Cheers lads 🍻

@NorthernFellRunning 2 года назад

I agree 100% 🤣🤣🤣🤣👍

@morrislouiseeagle7161 2 года назад

lol that looked toasty- not for me im ginger i would have fryed - mind you i couldn't have walked that - so thank you for sharing this with us xx

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Toasty was definitely the word!! Thank you and so glad you enjoy watching our videos 😊

@OlgasBritishFells 2 года назад

Hi guys. What are your names again, please? I think it was mentioned in my run when you were talking to each other. I can't believe how effortless you make it look running 51 mile in this relentless heat. I would've baked alive, you hardly had any shade anywhere. Was it on Saturday or on Sunday. Sunday was even hotter. Did you know that route or were you allowed to use GPS devices, or was it paper maps only? Weldone you two!!!!

@TrailRunningCouple 2 года назад

Thank you very much Olga, we both appreciate your comments. My wife is Cheryl and I’m Gary. It certainly wasn’t effortless but I’m sure we all try and put our best faces on for the camera! It was Saturday and whilst not as hot as Sunday it was still very hot and uncomfortable. So glad to make it to the finish!! No didn’t know the route and GPS devices are fine. They hand out the route as a GPX file so no messing around with paper maps but many still chose to use them. It’s a fine art and we’re not masters of it!!

@OlgasBritishFells 2 года назад

@@TrailRunningCouple nice to meet you (vertically for now) Cheryl and Gary. Yes Saturday was still hot too. Oh so they actually give out GPX files?! That's cool. You seemed so confident, like you knew where you were going. I can't even imagine in my head doing such a long distance. Respect!
