27:13 "If I can see it, it can't be that bloody far!" That cracked me up, haha.

I am amazed with the weather being so good that far north in Scotland!! Beautiful

Or anywhere in Scotland. For that many days in a row. They were very lucky.

@edwardchester1 3 года назад

Yeah, really sells the the place and makes you want to go there. Soda law it would be miserable the whole time if you visited.

@bongamdingi4205 2 года назад

Absolutely amazing to watch, I wanted to cry when one of the runners said "all the hurting is healing, it clears your mind of all of the bad thoughts"

Great Doc, well filmed of some of the finest places in Scotland. Recognised all these lovely spots having backpacked and cyclepacked Scotland over many years. Can't imagine running it though ! However, good to be self contained, camping wild over multi day treks. That shot up Loch Hourn from near Barrisdale is lovely, Kinloch Hourn to Barrisdale is a classic walk. Nicely organised race and friendly participants with everyone looking after each other. Thanx, enjoyed watching this. MS, Scotland.

@2112Tix 4 года назад

Inspirational for sure, think when you’ve run an ultra it gives you just a small insight into the world of these multi-day maniacs. I salute you all.

@bearcingetorix6326 6 лет назад

in case anyone is wondering, that song at the end is called "Will ye go lassie go/Purple Heather/Wild Mountain Thyme/Blooming Heather." Never seen a song go by so many titles.

@Just_Call_Me_Tim 4 года назад

Bearcingetorix Too true, and it’s great under all of them! I knew it as “will ye go lassie go”.

When is the next one please? I suffer with really bad anxiety and depression and that's all my body wants to do but never gets a chance. I'm sure if I can stress out for 4/5days with no sleep no food on a regular basis I'd be able to do this I would like to put all the negative energy I have into a positive one like this event

@voicezful 3 года назад

I'm sorry, but this route is not designed for racing, especially when most of the runners walk anyway. I find it totally disrespectful to the native land and harsh environment of Cape Wrath to turn it into a circus for someone's self-centred ego on the global stage.

@AstrumG2V 2 года назад

I'm sorry you feel that way, and I'm sorry you don't understand the mindset of these athletes
