Welcome to 'Running An Ultra'.

It's a, uh, multi-discipline sport. |||다학제적인|| これはその......複合種目のスポーツなんだ。 Bu çok disiplinli bir spor.

I've gone for zero drop.

Excuse me.

A pair of inov-8s, which are perfect. They're, Bir çift inov-8, ki mükemmeller. Onlar,

they keep me quite low to the ground,

obviously, because of the drop.

They've got great grip for all the different terrains that we're going over. ||||||||지형|||| |||agarre|||||terrenos|||| Üzerinden geçtiğimiz tüm farklı araziler için harika bir tutuşa sahipler.

And it means that you can really feel the ground. Bu da zemini gerçekten hissedebileceğiniz anlamına geliyor.

I love a shoe with cushioning, but I think for something like this, |||||amortiguación||||||| Yastıklamalı ayakkabılara bayılırım ama böyle bir şey için bence,

you want to feel it.

But you've also got that layer of, that layer of cushioning on the sole of the shoe |||||||||||||바닥||| |||||capa||||||||suela||| Ama aynı zamanda ayakkabının tabanında yastıklama tabakası da var. 但鞋底上也有一層緩衝層

is where I need to be going.

I don't know why I've been reluctant to do this, but I have poles in my bag, and |||||||||||||Polen (1)|||| ||||||reacio|||||||palos||||

people around me have been using polls for the entire race, but I think it's like, you know when you're a teenager and

you think it's really cool

to, like, wear your coat indoors and your parents say take it off or you won't feel the benefit when you go back outside. ||||abrigo|||||||||||||||||||

I think that's kind of what I've been doing.

I've been like, oh, I won't feel the benefit If I have it on- if I have my poles out for the whole race. ||||||||||||||||||Stöcke||||| Ich habe mir gedacht, oh, ich werde den Vorteil nicht spüren, wenn ich ihn anhabe, wenn ich meine Stöcke während des gesamten Rennens draußen habe.

Half marathon to go.

Whoop whoop! Can't believe it.

That doesn't feel that long.

I'm sure it will.

We're just on a little bit of respite from the climb getting into checkpoint four. |||||||respiro|||subida||||

I came into that feeling a little bit deflated. ||||||||entmutigt ||||||||desinflado ||||||||izpraznjen

Not gonna lie.

Been a tough climb.

Been overtaken by a few people. Did overtake them back on the hill. |adelantado|||||||||||

They overtook me on a flat, and then I re-overtook them on the hill.

So petty, but ah, makes you feel good. |insignificante||||||

But then pop into the checkpoint, Got some water, said |||a||||||

Oh, my God.

It was so good.

Music makes a difference.

Starting off with the song that was in Anna's Berlin

Marathon video. Look out, cause here I come.

It was also suggested on Instagram when I asked for song suggestions. Really does get you moving. |||sugerido|||||||||||||

This is me.

Oh, onwards and upwards. |hacia adelante||hacia arriba

Oh, this is relentless. |||implacable

I've done about 400 metres in what feels like four hours.

Just got a good song come on, though.

Don't stop me now. To survive,

like Lady Godiva. I don't know what the words are.

There's no stoppin' me.

Call him Mr Fahrenheit.

Oh. Oh, no, I'm off course.

I thought that was gonna be a,

you've gone through a kilometre.

Oh, don't stop me now.

I'm having such a good time, having a ball.

Taking a break on a log because

it feels like time is standing still.

Guess what?

We're still climbing.

Oh, some of the elites yesterday were saying that when you're in the pain

cave, um it's good to smile and laugh, and that gets you out

of it, So... Oh, there's a big wasp on me. |||||||osa||

Um, without looking like a weirdo. |||||čudak

This is really giving me feels of, Simba,

everything the light touches is yours.

Go, in

the comments, quick,

name that reference.

So, probably got about a k to go until the final

checkpoint. Yeah. Well, the good news is,

is we are over the nine hour mark and we are

over the marathon mark. I forgot to check when we actually hit it.

But we're now on 43k in nine hours and 18 minutes.

So, ladies and gentlemen, I have done an

ultra marathon.

Does this mean I can stop now?

Yeah.

I mean, this is a bit savage that you have to walk over a bridge.

Oh, but pretty.

Very pretty.

Okay, final checkpoint complete.

I had sausages and ketchup. Man,

I love an ultra.
