    I'd be very happy with 27 hours, Paul. Well done fella and thanks for sharing another run!

      It was a tough day out. My feet were so sore after getting trench foot at TP100. But we try our best

    Awesome achievement 👏 well done, especially in that heat. I would like to have a crack at this one day, but 100 miles, its just next level. 👌👍👏💪kudos to you

      They do become “do-able” after building up the miles. It’s a change of mind set. Set off slow and slog it out

    I didn't personally make it, got to saddlescombe farm and DNF'd, massive kudos for finishing, it was pretty bleak in the heat so I doth my cap to you Paul

      I knew it was going to be a long day as my times were slower than last two times. I think everyone was close to the edge of their limits during the day. You will come back stronger

    Well done for finishing. I ran passed you quite early on and you said you werent enjoying it 🤣🤣at that moment, but glad to see you pass later at southease still pushing on. Was a tough day at the office

      My legs were empty from recent races and it was a real challenge at the start. Glad we made it to the end. So warm

    Huge kudos Mr Coates!!!! Great stuff mate! So much grit and determination! You are a huge inspiration mate. Good to see Ron and Mr P making and
    appearance 😎🤘

    • @PaulCoatesTrailRunning
      @PaulCoatesTrailRunning  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mr P was a real star. Only meant to drive me there and then popped up at some of the aid stations. He is a true gentleman. I think Ron struggled with the heat a bit as well

    Great video Paul! And huge congrats to getting it all done on such a hot day!!! 43% DNF rate I gather (to which I contributed). Good to share a few miles with you early on and to witness first hand your legendary trouble-making at the first aid station! 😆

    • @PaulCoatesTrailRunning
      @PaulCoatesTrailRunning  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Sorry to hear the heat got to you. But next time, you will have more experience. Always lots of banter at aid stations. The second half was a real struggle. Mr p gave me a lift and then popped up at 3 aid stations. Bless him. It’s so hard without crew or pacers, but we still carry on regardless. See you at another race no doubt

    Great job Paul, sorry not to bump into you there! Good to see Kev there at Jevington aid station 👍 Hopefully they'll put in some more flat hills next year

    • @PaulCoatesTrailRunning

      Yeah, they always promise flatter hills….don’t know if I believe them

      Different to the mud fest at Thames path. I wonder why we do these daft things

    Great stamina. Love the way it transitions from the hottest day to you waist deep in muddy water. Nice one.

      That end clip was a couple of years ago in February. Chest deep and only a few degrees C. Massive difference

    Incredible, saw a huge dropout rate this year with the heat. Congrats

  • @ihdjs
    @ihdjs ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Bloody bravo!
    This was my first attempt at 100 and a combination of the heat, and a number of nutrition and kit mistakes meant I dropped out at mile 67.
    Learnt a lot and will be back stronger next year, motivated by the 54% of you that got to the end this year.
    Well done mate.

    • @PaulCoatesTrailRunning
      @PaulCoatesTrailRunning  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh bugger, that’s a long way before dropping. But back next time, wiser and stronger

    Great running Paul! Your race schedule is mental though 😅If I'd know you were running, I would have come and said hi at the start! That heat was brutal. It was a real struggle running through the afternoon!

      It was relentless _ but the Marshall’s were the stars. Nothing was too much for them

      I am not actually a fan of 100’s for that reason. Think I need to focus on shorter distances and get home same day
