Heatwave Hell - The South Downs Way 100 Ultra
My second attempt at 100 miles didn't exactly go to plan...
As always, I'd like to thank Chris Emmerson for making this short film - I couldn't do it without you old bean.
Stay tuned for my next mega race - The Dragon's Back Ultra in September. Fingers crossed I can get it done.
P.S. Well done Tom King - phenomenal.

The Canadian Death Race - 22 hours of carnage - Tom Blackett
มุมมอง 38Kปีที่แล้ว
Since the start of the millennium, racers have come to The Canadian Rockies to cheat death in one of the world's toughest ultramarathons. The 125km course begins and ends on a 4200-foot plateau, passes over three mountain summits, and not only includes over 17,000 feet of elevation change, but a major river crossing at the spectacular Hell's Gate Canyon at the confluence of the Smoky and Sulphu...
Chicamocha Canyon Race - Brutal 80km Ultra Marathon - Tom Blackett (feat: Mike)
มุมมอง 2Kปีที่แล้ว
The Chicamocha Canyon Race is an annual ultra marathon hosted in one of Colombia's most challenging environments. With nearly 4000 metres of incline, a baking hot sun and limited supplies provided at checkpoints, this challenge was WAY harder than anticipated. It was an absolute pleasure to run with Mike - he put in an unbelievable shift for his first ultra marathon. I want to thank Sergio (ins...
Patagonia Run - 110km - Tom Blackett
มุมมอง 1.5K2 ปีที่แล้ว
The 110km Patagonia Run is one of the most challenging 24 hour races I have ever done. With nearly 6000 metres of incline, unpredictable weather conditions, and 10 hours of night running to complete, this tested me to my absolute limits. As always I'd like to thank Chris Emmerson (Instagram: @chris.emmerson) for his amazing support and first class videography. I'd also like to thank Efugio Prod...
World's Hardest Ultra Marathons - 236km Coastal Challenge - Tom Blackett
มุมมอง 9K4 ปีที่แล้ว
With 236km to run, 10,000 metres to climb, and a number of crocodile-infested river crossings to negotiate (all in 35°C and near 100% humidity), it is no wonder that The Coastal Challenge is considered by many to be one of the hardest multistage ultrarunning events in the world……….and here is my attempt! I'd like to thank Chris Emmerson (Instagram: @chris.emmerson) for his amazing support and f...

    I finished the solo of the 2023 CDR and this video really captures what it was like for me. When someone asks me about the race I just share this video. I loved the leg 4 part of the video, the music and time lapse were spot on. Good job man.
