I felt your raw emotions! I was training for a 26.3 mile hike (14wk training turned into 2yrs because of covid). Anyway I ended up getting bronchitis after a 16 mile hike. I was so devastated that I could only do 4 miles during the hike day! Since then, I've been diagnosed with acute bronchitis. I've been feeling just like you mentioned in this video. You've given me hope! TY!
I'm glad you feel the 'hope'.. hope was what I needed after my brain injury... have you seen my free foundations of breathing course? There are some basics breathing exercises that might help? www.probreathwork.com/course/foundations-of-breathing
Thank you for your vulnerability in this my brother. It’s the greatest strength we have when we allow ourselves to just be as we are. No ego. No pretence. Just our whole messy selves. We can do great things together. And we will ❤🙏🏻
I did a charity run during lock down. the idea was to run around your garden, if you had a garden, or some other ridiculous space for 12 hours. All moneies raised for the NHS. I did 27 miles. Caz, my wife, who had run maybe six miles before did 22 miles! you areso right. LOVE
A wonderful testament to the power of connection and human endurance...one step, one day at a time. Congratulations and thanks for sharing not only your incredible journey.over three days but about yourself.
What a great inspirational video. You have great mental strength. Respect to you for getting to the start line that third day. I have never run this event. But competed in others. This looks tough and you did it. Absolutely well done to you and your team.
Just watched this for the first time... Absolutely amazing Jacko, it is amazing what the human body can do and how strong the mind is. Much Love Brother
Great film this.. has all the ingredients of a great ultra event challenge.. the ups and downs..overwhelming running moments.. and finally the joy of getting to the end.. great support from your wife.. love the emotional/ spiritual approach to doing them.. it’s why I did and do them.. puts us on the path to our soul.. great achievement..👏👏👏
David, I have run the ROF twice. All I can say is thank you for your honesty. As you have said, it's not about the race but bout the people and community who support you and the love you feel from them that make you go to places you never would of thought you could go to. By the way, I met you on the first day running then on the second and Third Days supporting the race in the T5 campervan
So much heart, honesty and gratitude expressed from such a deep place of suffering, thank you for letting us be a part of your journey, it was outstanding.
WOW David-Jacko! this is an extraordinary and vulnerably enlightening documentary. The tears run from my eyes of joy and love I have for you sharing this story of deep connection we all want between each breath. Thank you very very much. May many discover this story and the adventure and challenges ahead in their lives to open up and receive the support others want to give for our success, and that we can ask for help when we need it, even between the breaths where to ones who love us see the question before it's asked. Thank you, I love you (as we say in our connected group of open loving humans serving each other and others in our lives.)
Hey, thanks so much for hearing the message... I cried a few times watching it too! Raw emotion is good and I appreciate you taking the time to feedback whole heartedly!
Men need avventure, challenges, defeats and victoires to feel a men! Thanks for sharing and inspiring us! I also feel like doing this sort of challenge : breath, movement and will 🙏
Hey Helen, thank you so much for watching and sharing how you connected with it and us. 🙏🏻

I was riding a bike today and listening to the "Take a Break podcast" with you... I have felt so calm and just forget that I have breath only thru my nose during a 1:10h ride. Your story was truly inspiring! Just to live, to breathe, and to search for a small thing that makes us happy! 🙂🧘🏻
How powerful! Wow! Thank you for making me feel such powerful emotions. This is heartwarming and the type of story that should be shared. I feel the Love.
I ran the Firelighter event and marshalled the RoF 2022. Congratulations on your finish 👍 Amazing coverage of the event and your story. It's a tough cookie to crack and humbles all on its path 🔥
This was an amazing watch! I love the honesty and real raw emotion, the share of that alone creates connection (even beyond your amazing family and support team). I could feel it and felt connected, and Im sure others do to! A few things of many standing out; 'We are way more capable than we think' and 'its about connection!' Awesome work Jacko!
Awesome video mate, inspirational and emotional. True tale of facing life head on and tackling whatever it throws at you, even when you think you can't, just know, this too shall pass! good for you! Thanks for sharing
WOW!!!! This has brought me to tears man, so amazing. Thank you for sharing this incredible story and being so vunerable, it's such an inspiring film. Your face says it all in some of the scenes and its incredible how you went on. Your wife is such an inspiration, and shows how stronger and incredible the female species are. Massive respect matey. You're awesome.
Thanks for much for watching mate and yes I cried pretty all the way through!!! And yes Catherine aka Mrs Jacko is the star of the show! Couldn’t do it or life without her… full UK costal path in 2026 is the plan now!!
Look forward to watching that @@Jacko-Breathwork your headline 'between breaths' reminds me of the poem 'The Dash' Poem by Linda Ellis. Enjoy your 'dash' matey, im just on the search for some bandanas 😎
Jacko… this was phenomenal! You had the hairs on the back of my neck standing up and left me with tears in my eyes! Absolute legend ❤❤❤❤ Chris Saunders (SoC student and Jacko fan!)
I entered a challenge a couple of years ago called the cockbain accumulator where you run the days of the month of July..( one Mile on day 1.. 2 on day 2 etc.. up to the 31st.. around day 24 I got up at 4am and walked sideways down the stairs .. made some porridge and sat in the front room to put my stuff on.. rain was hammering against the window and I was shot at.. couldn't see me going out to try and do day 25.. I flicked through my messages on strava from the night before as I'd gone to bed and didn't read them.. ..and saw one from a lad called Sam braithwaite.. all it said was " can't wait to see tomorrows run".. I cried and knew I had to go out.. and did.. and finished all the days.. we're capable of much more than we think.. and this taught me a lot..💙
This was a class production mate. What a story. You are a strong bugger, but your Mrs is an absolute champion. Sticking next to you throughout and completing an ultra herself was incredible. I think it’s your turn to crew her next time. Making me want to have a bash at the race! How far did your wife (sorry I can’t remember her name) go in the end?
Wow ~ what a beautiful documentary.. and an incredible insight into the immense mental & emotional challenge of completing an event such as RoF! You mentioned not feeling worthy of being there with the runners on Day 3.. seriously, we were all in the same boat by that point and just praying everything held together for those final 33.5 miles!! Lessons in becoming comfortable with the uncomfortable ~ so empowering! 🙏 P.S... Expect to see your wife on the start line this year....?!! She looks ready!! 😉
Yes 😃 somehow managed to blank out the hideously blistered feet and incredible fatigue to drag myself to the finish line! Like you experienced ~ I found that ability to power towards the finish as if my body was absolutely fine.. then as soon as I stopped I could barely find the energy to hobble back to the car! 😆 We did it though!!… what an experience!
@@Jacko-Breathwork when you described on the last day just getting into the car, which was the first step to running and overtaking walkers 🤗🫶 what a challenge 🙏
