Youve definitely captured both the challenge and the beauty of running in the Shropshire Hills here. This race was hard! It was lovely to meet you both in person having enjoyed many of your adventures on RU-vid, and a pleasure to share a little of the Conquest route with you. Look forward to seeing what you get up to next :)

Aww, this was fantastic, Shropshire hills are fantastic and that looked like a really good event,I love the idea of the loops and the choice of direction you can run I went up to Shropshire hills for my birthday last August with my friend who'd never visited before ( the one who insisted Yorkshire tea is smuggled by donkeys with panniers out of Yorkshire to keep tea Field locations secret ) he keeps asking when were going to go back, a lot of people don't realise how beautiful the area is and have never visited . Church stretton is a good base if people want to stay for a few days as you can do endless hill adventures from there as your base Well done for another great video 👍

It was a first for us in the area and now have many reasons to return. We stayed in a lovely self contained flat in Church Stretton on Friday evening, just a mile from the start which really helped considering the early start of the race (6am). On reflection it was a great idea to get a few miles out of the way before it really warmed up. Your tea story really is funny 😂

Thank you so much. Not sure on the actual temperatures but it was certainly uncomfortably warm. Lots of hydration needed but it was still a struggle. Such a lovely place to be though 😊

One of my favourite vids that. Well done to both again and nice silver plate for 3rd place. I laughed at the girl at the biggining trying to get signal on her watch. I watched that 5 times as i do something similar 🤣. The views are epic especially on Leg 4. I just had no idea and it made me a bit numb as many years ago i spent 6 years traveling to and from Shrewsbury. However i wasn't a runner back then else i would have discovered those hills for myself. Good to see Richard at the end also. Done lots of Beyond races in the past. Will need to add this race to the bucket list now as i want to cut down next year on the expensive 100's.

Hi Andy, probably right up your street this one. Whilst the hills aren’t exactly mountains they’re tough and testing enough for a route of that distance. Really enjoyed it, especially the free format. Great day out if not a little warm at times 🥵

Well done! Congratulations on another impressive run. Beautiful scenery, well filmed on a lovely day. Thank you :) Do either of you use an electrolyte drink, either during or after the run? Such as Tailwind or Skratch? Cheers.
@TrailRunningCouple
@TrailRunningCouple 5 месяцев назад
Hi, thank you. Tough with the heat but really enjoyable. As for electrolytes we use Voom bars and Clif Shot Blocs which have them along with Salt Stick tablets if it’s really warm which it was and we did on Saturday!

That really was beautiful. Great running guys. Was there any benefit in choosing clockwise or anti for any of the loops?
@TrailRunningCouple
@TrailRunningCouple 5 месяцев назад
Hi and thank you! We lacked knowledge of the area so just went with the GPX files that were provided in the direction they came. Others did opt for the alternatives but couldn’t say for sure if either would have been preferred. Probably both as tough as each other!

great race you guys and congratulations Cheryl, It was great to see you both as you approached the campsite at the end of loop 3. It certainly sounded like you enjoyed the Shropshire Hills, they make a great training ground for us runners who can't make it up to the Lakes regularly. Can I ask did the race team provide a GPX for the route, you did so well not to go off track. Keep up the great channel, see you in Coniston
