In this video we take on the notorious Montane Cheviot Goat which is a 57 mile, 24 hour race with 4,000 metres of ascent. It takes place in the Northumberland National Park and dips in to Scotland briefly before climbing back up to the summit of the Cheviot, the highest peak in the national park at 815 metres. Also, did I mention the bogs? and the pathless terrain? It all combines to make it a beast of an event that we've been wanting to do for a while. Sunshine, smiles, bogs and blizzards sums up this experience. We didn't quite get all the way around this time but we'll be back, we have a score to settle now.

Great effort Dean - you’ll smash it next time

@DeanRead 4 месяца назад

Thanks for watching Ashley, hoping to volunteer again at the Goat this year, it’s such a great event

@davidcressey Год назад

Well done guys.... You competed and did brilliantly. Just see it as a warm up for next time :)

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Dave. Less time trying to go around the bogs next time, just go through them. They might be frozen next time which would make life easier 😁

@BorderRambler Год назад

Great experience none the less , DNF just means back again next year lol

@DeanRead Год назад

It certainly does 😁 thanks for watching

@andreafluffkitten Год назад

DNFs are fine. You two did good.

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Andrea, I'd rather a DNF than a DNS, we'll be back at the next on to have another crack at it 😁

@DownHillCol Год назад

Nice one Dean, missed this one, but glad to have looked back and caught up with your adventures. I hope to see you easily complete it this year 😬👍

Hello Dean, I hope you are keeping well. I just wanted to thank you for all of your efforts this year with such fantastic video content. You are one of my favourite youtube outdoors channels, and your videos are such a pleasure to watch. Wonderful scenery, fantastic commentary, and an absolutely infectious positive attitude. Congrats too on your achievements in the Edale Skyline Race, and the Montane Spine challenge. Those are no joke! Wishing you a very happy New Year, and all the best for 2023.

@DeanRead Год назад

Thank you for watching Martin and for your kind words. 2022 was a great year, lots of goals ticked off and lots of fun had along the way. Through into that I landed a surprise new job with the Spine Race too, what a year it was. All the best to you for a great 2023 and thanks again for taking the time to watch and leave comments, I really appreciate it. Dean

@martinkingston1498 Год назад

@@DeanRead You are more than welcome Dean, you really deserve it. It's brilliant too that you landed a role with the Spine Race. Sometimes life gives us the opportunity to work at the very things we really love. And it's literally impossible to not love the Peak District, the Pennine's, and all of the beauty that Yorkshire has to offer! Here's to your many future adventures, and continued success. Kind regards, Martin.

All about that consistency!

Very true, I’m struggling with that at the moment

Think of it as a recce for next time! Well done both, that looked brutal

@DeanRead Год назад

Very true, looking forward to doing it again thisbyear

@LundysWildcampBushcraft Год назад

Well done Dean and Steph that looked hard going I've done a few walks and camp's in that area and it can be brutal at time's it's not a fail it's a experience that not many of us would have the guts to do it a so good on ya both next time you will smash it atvb Jimmy 😎😎👍👍

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Jimmy. We had a great time even if it didn't go 100% to plan 😁 hope you're well mate

@edpotter3833 Год назад

You gave it a go, which is more than most would do and you’re up for trying again. Top marks Dean and Steph

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Ed. I'm so glad we had a crack at it even if we didn't get to the finish.

@hannahbazley3626 Год назад

Looked amazing! You've actually sold it to me for a future year! 😬

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Hannah, it was a great event. Boggy as hell but fun.

@gregcoleman7328 Год назад

Some really challenging conditions but some epic views. Fantastic effort and I am sure you will both crack it on the next one. Very well done!

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Greg, lots of lessons learned in this one. We'll definitely be back again to have another crack.

@gregcoleman7328 Год назад

@@DeanRead Looking forward to the adventures you have planned for 2023 and hope that the new job is going well! ATB, Greg

@PaulFreeman1 Год назад

Great run and an epic adventure in those conditions. You both must be very happy with the event - here's to the next one. I love walking in the snow, but I'd not be able to run 24 hours in those conditions

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Paul, we really enjoyed it despite the unplanned ending. We'll be back and might even have a crack at the route in summer as practice😁

@yomo1690 Год назад

5:23 in the morning! ....... I out already. Lol

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching

@JustinDoesTriathlon Год назад

Man that weather took a brutal turn. That + the bogs, that's a wild course! Looks fun though. Get it next time. :) That soup at 1 looked heavenly.

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Justin, the weather did get a bit brutal when it got dark. Had to keep on top of navigation as the snow falling after CP2 made it hard to follow the paths / sheep tracks. The soup at CP1 was excellent, the fire there was very inviting which is lethal😂

@markg99 Год назад

Fantastic effort guys. That sounds like quite an adventure!

Happy new year to you too Philip

@AnthonyJohnson1 Год назад

Well done to you both. A great effort in some very testing conditions. Looked an epic challenge. Reflect on the experience and take the learning into your next attempt. Next time you’ll smash it 💪🏻

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Anthony. We had a great time, need to get entered for 2023 before the early bird price ends 😁

@999shaznay Год назад

That's the practice run done! Just relieved to see the two of you back in one piece. I think it worked out a 50/50 split of finishers to DNF's, such were the conditions. Enjoy your time away coming up guys and look forward to either seeing or speaking to you in January. ❤

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Sharon and for the soup and friendly face on this event. Looking forward to some Winter Spine fun next week now we're back from New Zealand

@bobbyshafto3259 Год назад

Great video Dean,you both did really well,that's a massive challenge and weather looked awful at times....peat bogs looked horrendous. Better luck next time.

Thanks for watching Bobby, looking forward to heading back again

@Dazck9s Год назад

Welcome to my stomping ground lol... Dean and steph great effort, it is a very boggy place even in the summer, so don't beat yourselves up for DNF. Come back up train like a few others did and you'll be fine Atb Daz

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Daz. It's a beautiful part of the world and I'm looking forward to being back there again next week with work for the Winter Spine Race 👍

Thanks for watching Maurice. Looking forward to having another go this year 🤞

@chrisbentleywalkingandrambling Год назад

You gave it your best shot and selflessly stopped to help others. I'd call that a win Dean. Great vlog, one question, how many sets of batteries did you use in the gopro and supplementary to that, what was the finish time for first place? Great vlog, thanks for sharing.

@DeanRead Год назад

Thanks for watching Chris, I used to batteries in the GoPro 👍
