That final climb was insane! 😂 Amazing work to film it and finish at the front.

Wow, a dad of 40...with that many kids how do you find the time to run? 😅 Thanks for the great content. I'm working my way through your back catalogue. 😊

Was good to see you there..manage to see myself in the video 😂😂 Hope the knee is doing better.. funnily enough I became injured of the back of this too 😂 no pain no glory 💕

Incredible effort my friend! Beautiful at the top of the mountain. Hope you recover quickly and well.

Well done on 10!! It was a great event - my first backyard ultra too - I only managed 6 as I pulled a muscle in my leg and I fell over! It was super friendly and I've already registered for next year. Will deffo plan on at least 10 by then! Chantal :-)))

Nice one Francois, this looked like a lovely route and a good atmosphere. The community feel and seeing the whole of the field at the end of every loop is really cool. Well done on getting well past hour initial target with the knee trouble. Hope it continues to mend well

Great video - captures the essence of the event really well!

Fab video, well done on 10 laps :)) thanks for all the ultra running tips :) x

Good effort 👍🏻🏃‍♂️ Hope the knee is behaving itself now.

This was a great video. No idea how you made it in that heat without nutrition or fluid for long sections. And in a brilliant time too. Amazing!

Super helpful, thanks for sharing!

Fantastic video, well put together with a great soundtrack! I completed this in 2022, didn’t get round last year and going again for it this year to make the score 2 - 1! You’ve made me even more determined than ever to make sure I get round this year! Cheers!

could see my house on the drone shot of coniston!

Many congrats to u on your run my friend! 👍🏽

I completed my first marathon on Sunday (London marathon) i did it in 5.33.59 so not fast but im so proud that I didn't walk at all. I have signed up for this in February 2025. I'm hoping to complete it in the time frame of 12 hours. I think I'll be quicker than that.

How much is this race to enter

Been a very wet start to the year. Still great to get out into the fresh air and clean out the soul. Best wishes on the next adventure Francois.

Amazing! Brilliant running and in "less than ideal" 😂 conditions. I have just signed up for this year and just watched your video with a 50/50 split of excitement and terror

Promo-SM 💘

That's great, uve only done a few 50s, but that brough back some memories.

I thought it was about time I watched this - Highlight has to be you quoting Eminem 😆 I definitely need to have a beasting on those hills - some of those climbs looked brutal!

How long have you been running for? Just did my 10k in zone zone in 1h20min lol

Amazing run great video well done.

Nice insights. Those tracking numbers look really useful for pacing plans.

Some really great advice Francois. Really good ideas here mate. Thanks for sharing them with us. 😎🤘

i can only run some of the time to stay in zone 2, so these are always run walks for me. usually 6 min runs 10 min brisk walks keep me in the zone for as many hours as I care to go.

I run a Zone 2 10km in 55min. May I never hit Zone 3. And my Avg HR is 130

Hi mate could you do a vid on navigation ie smart watch ect, was there someone to follow ,particularly in the dark and when in a bad place

Really, really good. I watch a lot of ultra vlogs and this was one of the best I've watched. Documented the ups and downs extremely well. Well done my friend. You have a new subscriber!

Deep respect for this effort! Inspirational! Well done and I can only imagine the pride you must feel at the end.

Great effort. Well done! 👍🍷

Brilliant, well done 👍

Absolutely smashed it Francois !! Amazing achievement… some races don’t have to be repeated😂🏃🏻‍♂️👊 Great crewing from Bro 👊

Very impressive to both film this AND run it!!! Congratulations!

great film guys!

Very useful and helpful to me. I hope you find time to make the detailed mini series you mentioned.

Really well articulated breakdown 👌 the key takeaway here for me is using average pace - I will def put this into practice in training for the next ultra. Glad you’re recovering well & looking forward to the series!

Really enjoyed that thanks. Really interesting and informative. Looking forward to the series.

Amen to those sore shoulders for a couple of days, I used the Adv Skin 12 too and felt the same.

Brilliant video. Congrats on the race!!

A superb analysis Francois! You absolutely nailed it on the day mate. Thanks for sharing your planning and prep with us mate. Look forward to the races and events coming up. 😎🤘

Thanks for the debrief, it was useful. I'm hoping to do the Arc next year. Have you tried downloading topo/landscape maps to your coros watch? I have found that it can help with navigation.

Great run down thanks very much. I’d really appreciate it if you could let me know the brand of energy drink (like strawberry milkshake). Thanks very much and once again well done on a great run.

A great report, superb preparation, I watched and supported the runners from my little camper at North cliffs not far pass Godrevy, sure lucky with the weather this year

A great breakdown of the race thank you, very interesting 😀

A really well organised breakdown. Thanks for putting that together. Did you run 3 or 4 times a week in your training for the race?

Congratulations on your achievement. Thanks for taking the time share your account of the Arc. What a route. You have shared priceless strategies to achieve a finish at the arc. Great watch thank you 😊

See you have a Viszla? Me too. Great running buddies...❤

Fascinating

Huge congratulations! 🥳 And yes please to the deep-dive race review!
