↓↓ Has this made you want to take on 100 miles? How do you think Allie did? Or maybe you’ve done one before and want to share your own experiences of this epic feat? Let us know in the comments below ↓↓
this was awesome - finally a 100 mile video start to end showing high and lows and no BS - love it! awesome job Allie! I plan to build to my first 100 in April 2023 (yes three) starting with a marathon this fall. Ive heard of the lows and struggles and expect them but this video really puts it into perspective what I will expect to happen.
I think it is truly amazing what Ultra runners like Allie can accomplish. To run a hundred miles over that terrain in the heat of the summer is something to be proud of. Well done to everyone who attempted it snd especially to those who completed👏
Yes I totally agree. The ongoing battle between giving up and pressing on is riveting to me. I'm thinking that as long as you maintain your sense of humor you're still in the game. Or maybe not. Either way super inspiring for me.
Ran a 10k today for the first time. Allie is so inspiring, makes me want to push! Loved the unvarnished commentary, the companions and the incredibly good spirits (considering the circumstances!).
I watched both parts without skipping. That says a lot. Congratulations even if you say you are disappointed. Acutually you are quite a beast of a human being. Must be nice to be so tough!
Well done Allie! That looked brutal. Mile 93 on the final morning, staggeringly beautiful scenery all around with mist gently rising from the valley and low lying sun just beginning to light the hills and grasslands with a soft pink haze and all it gets is a casual "Look how pretty it is". That's ultra-running in a nutshell.
Did the Birmingham running festival recently in Sutton Park near Birmingham and that had four hills and the course was on a loop so it was hill after hill after hill and I was saying exactly the same thing!! 😂
I could watch Allie all day, what an awesome presenter, as well as doing a 100 miler at the same time! Hats off to you. Training for my first HM. Allie is an inspiration.
Allie, you are amazing! I've never run further than a half marathon (and I think a full marathon is probably my limit), but this got me really emotional towards the end. You should be SO proud of yourself. It looks like a really tough race but you are tougher. Hope you had a good long rest after finishing! xx
I'd say if anyone deserved a late check-out from their hotel after that feat of endurance it would be you, Allie 👏🏼 So honest throughout it all! Did yourself proud!
Just in awe and stunned amazement at this kind of achievement and the unbelievable willpower one must have to complete 100 Miles, non stop. I am looking forward to the next video with Allie! I don‘t think I have it in me to tackle something like this…
I'm glad I run my ultra's on my own, don't think I could deal with people moaning or having a meltdown at me on the way round. Done 70, and my feet were absolutely wrecked, cant currently imagine doing a 100... yet :D
Down to earth/how it really is/not glossed over - Allie you really are an inspiration to me to get my lard ass back out running again. Thank You Running Channel sharing this.
Absolutely loved the raw honesty from Allie. The rubbing alcohol is an epic tip that I’d never have thought about for cleaning and drying the feet - massive thanks for that. Looking forward to your next race.
Allie, I absolutely love you!! You're so honest and watchable. You've not made me want to run a 100 miler *cries* but it's given me hope for the Beachy Head half i've signed myself up for in Oct! I'm terrified but I know I can get through it. It's so refreshing to know you walk the hills, this was something I was so worried about. I'll take it all in, phone in hand and enjoy the experience!
Said it before she's mad. Love the way she turns into happy, singing along , story telling and then gets stropy and still I get good vibes from her. Another great video with Allie
In an age of correctness Allie's honesty, in her adventures is so many things ... all good. Insightful, raw, brutal, comical. An epic video of an inspiring person that no doubt, has the highest goals and aims for herself and has the courage to put it all out there on youtube. One foot in front on another, I suspect there's very little Allie can't do. Thanks for letting us tag along for a short spell !
Wonderful filming, open honesty and relate to so much of that stuff …. Love your style Ali. I’ve put myself through a few marathons and ultras in my time and did my first centurion 50 this year NDW. It nearly killed me and God knows how’s you go on and do anymore…….. though you’re inspiring me further down the addiction pathway to heaven and hell 🤪😂xx
OK, Allie, challenge...uh, considered. 😐 I still have to make it through 3 miles today, though. I love what appears like "stream of consciousness" inner-monologue escaping into the real world. There must also be all those quiet times on the run when it's just silence coupled with the crunching of your shoes on the road (and the cartilage scraping in your knees) to keep you company. Thanks for the two-part run-spiration this morning.
Great job Allie (and Lorna for getting her through the night and enduring the moods)! Allie, really something to be proud op, you kept enjoying the scenery, you kept putting one foot in front of the other and you kept on going. Real great accomplishment!
Wow, thank you Louis! Allie is great and shows just how difficult it is to conquer this distance. We're pleased to hear your inspired to tackle the distance too! Thanks for watching 😊
That was a really great description of the reality- really enjoyable watch, I can’t wait to have a go! 😮 the rush on finishing almost defies describing. Loved the ‘I’ve eaten this …it’s 08h20’ line 😂
We got you covered Michael! In fact, there’s a load of videos in this playlist that might help you out th-cam.com/play/PLD1LJvOjHmtel6-PW53w7SLpnrE7W1OxC.html
Just yesterday entered my 1st 50km for Feb 2022 and I say now, "thats long enough." Did my road marathon last weekend and another in October. Hope I'll be prepared enough.
Allie you frikin fabulous! I love watching your ultras. The video documentaries really demystify what they are and show what to expect! And yes- I want to do one and will! Please make more for TRC!
I'm always amazed at just how tough and focused ultra runners are. I really enjoyed watching this journey, and fell in love with lovely Britain all over again. What a beautiful place to suffer so badly.
Well done Allie...feel your pain on those horrible flinty paths of doom on SDW...did the SCC Ultra Challenge 100km continuous as a walker in 2019...the only ultra challenge that I've struggled with my mood on the night sections cause the paths were p***ing me off (normally I'm adhd bouncing tigger on these things 🙃)!!! TRC - great content again...hope we see more Allie soon...she is the perfect complement to an already awesome team 👍
This has only encouraged me more to attempt the SDW100 again!! I fed the bad monster too much and basically mentally buckled on my first low point at 95km and DNF'd at Boltophs but I will be back, fitter and faster for 2022.
Congrats on the finish and the great effort, even if it wasn't her A goal!! Watching her go through pretty much all of the emotions possible for a human to experience, and come out the other side, was so real and definitely makes me think I'll bump up to a 50 miler in 2022... I might never do a 100 miler... but then, that's what I said about 50k's and I'll do 3 within a year. The struggle and achievement really are addicting!
What have learnt all my years of running ultra races is that some point in the race you will hit a low point in the race. Be prepared for it, and know it doesn't for long and you will get your good mode back.
I thought I wanted to run 100 miles but I’m not sure now… looked horrific! Well done Allie you are one hard woman. I hope you and your buddy’s are friends again. 🤛🏼👍🏼👏🏼
Allie Bailey is one of the most honest, capable and respectable ‘influencers’ in the ultra running world. She is such an inspiration to runners on any part of the ability spectrum and her Instagram shows how raw the life of an ultra runner can be. She is epic.
@@runningchannel aye, indeed I do. I actually ran this SDW100 when Allie was filming. She has lots of great advice, one bit that I haven’t been 100% on is the ‘sport cigarettes’ but as all the rest of her words have been so full of wisdom I am sticking with them. Hope it pays off.
I would so love to be able to complete a 30 miler let alone a 100 miler. At present 10 miles is about my limit but 18 months ago that was 100 yards so who knows ... I have total respect for anybody who enters let alone those who finish. And, just as much respect if not more for support crews and pacers who will take the brunt of the emotions and come back next time for more. The unsung heroes of ultra running.
My ultimate goal is 100 miler. Not many in Scotland though. Also what was that big shiny thing in the sky, we don't have that up here. My longest so far is 53 miles in just under 12 hours. So a very similar pace to allie, but I had 10+ hours of rain, loved it.
Absolutely brilliant I luv her emotions coming out telling people too f-off & leave her alone... Im sure I did that at a half.... 🙈Well done Allt your amazing... 👏👏👏Xx
A 100 miler is my goal distance. If anything, watching Allie do it has made me more determined to give it a go. Still got some training to do but the century run will be mine (sinister laugh!). One day but hopefully this year. Only running 50Ks at the moment but I'll get there.
@@runningchannel thank you and I will. Tapering now as I've got a solo charity 50k run and 50k ride (back to back) next Saturday on roads. Feel totally under prepared but I'll still do it. I may swear more than Allie but I'll do it! 🤣🤬🤬🤬🏃🏼♀️🚴🏼♀️ (Can I post a link to my JustGiving page in the Facebook group?)
HELL YEAH I WANNA RUN 100 MILES!!!!!!! Allie is awsome and made me giggle with her ups and downs! Also learned how to eat crisps when running 🏃♂️ Cheers for that mega top tip Allie
@@runningchannel I have signed up to my first ultra (the Snowdonia Trail Ultra). I must be mad, brave or have no idea why i signed up! But the tips Allie gave will be usefull. Keep up the great work and BRING ON THE RACES!!!!!
Epic! 🙌 Wish Allie B had been my history teacher... 😂 Really nice to see a warts n all account of just how tough a 100 miler is... Total Respect to all who lined up to have a go and to Centurion for hosting the event 🤩
Respect for your ambition, but you might want to try a marathon first. It's not just two halfs back to back. I've run eight or nine halfs, but only been able to complete two fulls.
I had to come back and find my original comment. I ran my first ultra on Saturday. 33.5 miles and 5000 feet of elevation. Hard work and training will pay off. And don’t listen to negative people when try to tell you you can’t do something even if they are trying to sugar coat it.
Sounds absolutely painful but fantastic. I am yet to do an Altra but I have done a couple of marathons. I am a severely site impaired runner and I am going to tackle my first ultra next year. It will be the Manchester to Liverpool one which is 50 miles. I am doing London and Manchester in October and can’t wait. Love the channel and your great advice
This woman has convinced me I'm going to find the love of my life on one of these races. Only 74 more miles to conquer before I am worthy of being there.
Wow, one word, awesome. Allie is fantastic and I'm sure she would agree a bit bonkers. 👌😂These distances are crazy. I have watched a few films by people on you tube who have completed the Moab 240 which is mental. Do I fancy it no, got two half marathons coming up this year and would possibly like to do a marathon next year when I'm 50 if I can pluck up the courage🙈😂😂
Looks utterly crazy. Done one 50km on the flat so far. And despite the obvious challenges you went through with this I still want to do a 100 miler. Congratulations for keeping going! Oh and buy your pacer a meal to say thanks 🤪🤣
↓↓ Has this made you want to take on 100 miles? How do you think Allie did? Or maybe you’ve done one before and want to share your own experiences of this epic feat? Let us know in the comments below ↓↓
Yes, I want to. My sister thinks I am crazy, but yes. I want to. I am going to cry, but I want to do it.
Not this year though =)
Simply inspiring!!!
yes, going to attempt it in September at a 24hr lapped event in Worcester.
No
this was awesome - finally a 100 mile video start to end showing high and lows and no BS - love it! awesome job Allie! I plan to build to my first 100 in April 2023 (yes three) starting with a marathon this fall. Ive heard of the lows and struggles and expect them but this video really puts it into perspective what I will expect to happen.
I think this should be turned into a full documentary! I would love to see the prep, the running mates, and the huge meal afterwards!
Totally agree, it’s compelling stuff!
100% agree!
I think it is truly amazing what Ultra runners like Allie can accomplish. To run a hundred miles over that terrain in the heat of the summer is something to be proud of. Well done to everyone who attempted it snd especially to those who completed👏
Yes I totally agree. The ongoing battle between giving up and pressing on is riveting to me. I'm thinking that as long as you maintain your sense of humor you're still in the game. Or maybe not. Either way super inspiring for me.
love this woman, glad shes back on the running channel hope shes back again soon, Allie your amazing :)
Ran a 10k today for the first time. Allie is so inspiring, makes me want to push! Loved the unvarnished commentary, the companions and the incredibly good spirits (considering the circumstances!).
Well done! These two vids had the same effect on me !
I watched both parts without skipping. That says a lot. Congratulations even if you say you are disappointed. Acutually you are quite a beast of a human being. Must be nice to be so tough!
Well done!! Could we have a update in a week or so time about how Allie is now feeling about this great achievement.
Well done Allie! That looked brutal. Mile 93 on the final morning, staggeringly beautiful scenery all around with mist gently rising from the valley and low lying sun just beginning to light the hills and grasslands with a soft pink haze and all it gets is a casual "Look how pretty it is". That's ultra-running in a nutshell.
“Another fucking hill, I’m so sick of hills” literally what every runner thinks lol
We've all been there!
Did the Birmingham running festival recently in Sutton Park near Birmingham and that had four hills and the course was on a loop so it was hill after hill after hill and I was saying exactly the same thing!! 😂
but in all fairness- feels really good getting to the top and then feeling heart rate return to normal on the way down!
@@HS-fm9kv Yes, it feels like flying sometimes.
Looks pretty flat. Come on out to southern California. Real mountains here....
it’s encouraged me to do my half marathon soon! but we’ll done Allie you’re my new idol
Go Andy! Thank you for your support!
I could watch Allie all day, what an awesome presenter, as well as doing a 100 miler at the same time! Hats off to you. Training for my first HM. Allie is an inspiration.
"I can't tell you how I'm feeling because ... I don't know." The truest thing any ultrarunner can say.
Great achievement. I was more impressed with her pacer. She has the patience of a saint!!
Loved the honesty and wit. Thank you. Ran my 1st 100 miler last month & still a little bit broken.
Wow Martin! Well done and not surprised to hear that you're still a bit broken! Thanks for watching 😊
Allie, you are amazing! I've never run further than a half marathon (and I think a full marathon is probably my limit), but this got me really emotional towards the end. You should be SO proud of yourself. It looks like a really tough race but you are tougher. Hope you had a good long rest after finishing! xx
Don't limit yourself, train and smash a marathon then look at 50k, then go beyond. Just never say never.
Interesting to watch Allie's journey and think "yes, I want that." What's wrong with me? :)
I'd say if anyone deserved a late check-out from their hotel after that feat of endurance it would be you, Allie 👏🏼 So honest throughout it all! Did yourself proud!
Just in awe and stunned amazement at this kind of achievement and the unbelievable willpower one must have to complete 100 Miles, non stop. I am looking forward to the next video with Allie! I don‘t think I have it in me to tackle something like this…
Amazing effort Allie!!!! Thanks for sharing with us as well, can't be easy to film and run at the same time - especially 100 miles
Well done AB. Brutal race and honesty
I am obsessed with Allie. Please more of her and her ultras. ❤
Simply brilliant. Raw, funny, entertaining and challenging all bottled up in two epic segments. Thanks for posting and enjoy your rest!
Thanks for watching Shaun!
When all is said and done, in your own words you F****** did it, Well done 👏🏼👏🏼
I'm glad I run my ultra's on my own, don't think I could deal with people moaning or having a meltdown at me on the way round. Done 70, and my feet were absolutely wrecked, cant currently imagine doing a 100... yet :D
Allie is absolutely ace and quite hilarious, well done for battling on, tough conditions, can we have more videos from her👍
1 mini strop in 100miles. You are a hero! That was amazing.
Down to earth/how it really is/not glossed over - Allie you really are an inspiration to me to get my lard ass back out running again. Thank You Running Channel sharing this.
Absolutely loved the raw honesty from
Allie. The rubbing alcohol is an epic tip that I’d never have thought about for cleaning and drying the feet - massive thanks for that. Looking forward to your next race.
Thanks so much John! Glad you found some good tips in there too 😊
I DO still want to run a 100 miler - And I feel like watching this, helped me even more as I continue to prepare!!! Much Love from Missouri, USA~
Allie, I absolutely love you!! You're so honest and watchable. You've not made me want to run a 100 miler *cries* but it's given me hope for the Beachy Head half i've signed myself up for in Oct!

Congratulations on the brilliant account and superb finish . Awesome .

Bloody love her 😄 she's nuts! "Parkrun the gateway drug to ultras" 😄 Great 2 parter! Very inspirational, good job!
You gotta keep an eye on those parkruns!
What have learnt all my years of running ultra races is that some point in the race you will hit a low point in the race. Be prepared for it, and know it doesn't for long and you will get your good mode back.
Inspiring, down to earth, funny and really interesting to watch.
Made me run a mile or two further than normal after watching this 👍🏻
Great to hear!
Send Allie to run the USA 100 mile races and make longer documentaries
Well done Allie, think this may have put me off 100 milers for a while yet. A lot more training needed yet!
Great videos! More stuff like this please.
You're awesome and inspiring! Well done, Allie!
I thought I wanted to run 100 miles but I’m not sure now… looked horrific!
Well done Allie you are one hard woman. I hope you and your buddy’s are friends again. 🤛🏼👍🏼👏🏼

Amazing effort. Thanks for the inspiration.
Amazing Allie well done. Feel really inspired but wondering if mid-forties is too late to consider an ultra?
@Paula C - I did my first marathon and ultra at 44. Still going at 52. You can do it! 👍😁
Awesome loved watching this 👌
Awesome. Looked like fun.
The marathon is the end of the line for me. But I have mad love and respect for all ultra marathoners!
Sounds absolutely painful but fantastic. I am yet to do an Altra but I have done a couple of marathons. I am a severely site impaired runner and I am going to tackle my first ultra next year. It will be the Manchester to Liverpool one which is 50 miles. I am doing London and Manchester in October and can’t wait. Love the channel and your great advice
Thanks for sharing Danny! It is so exciting to hear you have an ultra planned! Let us know how you get on!
This woman has convinced me I'm going to find the love of my life on one of these races. Only 74 more miles to conquer before I am worthy of being there.
Wow, one word, awesome. Allie is fantastic and I'm sure she would agree a bit bonkers. 👌😂These distances are crazy. I have watched a few films by people on you tube who have completed the Moab 240 which is mental. Do I fancy it no, got two half marathons coming up this year and would possibly like to do a marathon next year when I'm 50 if I can pluck up the courage🙈😂😂
More of this please
Allie is superhuman! Amazing!
Looks utterly crazy. Done one 50km on the flat so far. And despite the obvious challenges you went through with this I still want to do a 100 miler. Congratulations for keeping going! Oh and buy your pacer a meal to say thanks 🤪🤣
Wow amazing full respect
Congratulations, that was wonderful.
Glad you enjoyed it!
'Respect the distance' - best advice ever.
Amazing! Well done 🏃🏻♂️❤️
Well done!
Amazing well done great achievement 👏👍
I'm a ways off from 100 miles but I'm working toward it! :)
Where do I sign? Great achievement well done!!
Wow. Just wow!
