Sion's account of his successful UTMB adventure really is "what they don't tell you," and now I don't feel so bad that I may never get the chance to run UTMB. But, I am very impressed by Sion's accomplishment. Congratulations, and thank you for this video.
Thank you for such a nice comment. I hope you do get the opportunity to run it one day if that is what you want 😁
Love the pure honesty, I was about 30 mins behind you and walked with you for a little time just outside of Champex Lac. As such I can back up your claims, crazy race :) Congrats on the finish, you showed courage !
Thank you mate, congratulations to you also.
Crazy race for sure 😲 haha
This is great! These are the stories we don't hear from Kilian or Jim as frontrunners. I so much appreciate you guys. Keep pushing, keep going! Excellent recap video 🥰
Thank you so much!
Appreciate you watching and commenting 😁
I’ve known @sion for only 6 months and one thing I found immediately is he puts 100% into everything! What an amazing review. People spend 10k+, sacrifice time with family, significant leave from work every year to do this race, so it’s actually extremely helpful having an honest review. Tash, the edit and music was superb you should be just as proud as Sion for this series. Please do more insane things Sion, and Tash, please make videos about them! Haha
Thank you mate. We appreciate such a nice comment ♥️
Trust me. We have some adventures coming up 😳🙌
Some great insights into the race that I’ve not heard before. That double pole overtake manoeuvre is classic 😂
Yes it is wild and NOT a thing people do lol
I will be retiring that move from my arsounel 🤣
Huge congratulations!!!! I hiked/ran it in six days and at the end couldn’t imagine doing it nonstop! What an accomplishment! Thank you for the debrief ❤️👊
That must have been beautiful!!! What was your favourite part ?
And thank you 😁
What an adventure you had! Thanks for giving us an idea of what UTMB is really like.
I'm glad you enjoyed it 😁😁😁 thank you so much.
I have absolutely and utterly loved watching this Sion. It’s 245am here in England and the third night since I finished my second ever 100k. I think I’m experiencing that downward turn you spoke of, as I’ve had to get out of bed and come downstairs to eat and also walk around - my legs are restless!
What I loved most about this video is how real and normal you made it - there are hardly any TH-camrs who tell you what these things are actually like. I kind of wish there were more.
A huge congrats from a 48 year old Pom who has been running for 2 1/2 years. Don’t think I’d ever want to do UTMB even if I thought I could.
But I’ve honestly loved this video. It was absolutely brilliant.
❤️
Congratulations on your second 100km mate. That's huge 🙌💪
Really appreciate you commenting and for such a nice comment.
You are a legend and I hope you have some more events to look forward to 😁😁😁
@@sondervail thanks so much for the reply. Yup, I’ve got loads more coming up. Running has changed my life for the better
Love hearing that 💪 goodluck with the events mate 🙌
@@sondervail you too
Cheers 😁
Congratulations on finishing and your amazing account of the experience. I ran the OCC this year and that was hard enough. Never ran a 100 mile race but you have inspired me to go for it and I have signed up for the Arc of Attrition 100 in Jan 2025. Good luck with your future events and I look forward to hearing all about them on your Chanel 👍👍
Thank you so much.
I am absolutely pumped for you that you have signed up for the 100 💪
Goodluck and I hope you enjoy the entire process.
Great video mate, well done completing UTMB! Interesting to hear your experience with the French on the trail. My brother did CCC and suffered extreme dehydration, basically collapsed on the track. Dozens and dozens of people went past and not a single person stopped to ask if he was okay. Eventually the first person to stop was a fellow Aussie who sorted him out with some salt tablets - I think that says a lot. I'm glad you were able to persevere, that's a bucket list achievement 🙂
Mate that is horrible to hear about your brother, glad to hear he got sorted out though.
The camaraderie on the trail was night and day different to the races I've done in Australia.
Big thanks! This is one of the best and most candid review of the UTMB experience. Its so real as though we were in it ourselves. Congratulations!
Really appreciate the comment mate. Thank you.
You’re a one of a kind human that’s for sure! Candid and inspirational, amazing work.
Appreciate that mate. I look forward to hearing about your Back Yard Ultra 😁
I really enjoyed this. You have an engaging style and it’s great to see the race being dissected like this. More please. I did the MdS 10 years ago so going back to watch your experience.
Thank you so much. I really appreciate the comment.
Congratulations on finishing the MDS... What an absolutely WILD race that is 😳 my experience there was one I'll never forget.
really enjoyed hearing about your experience. And massive respect for finishing
Appreciate the nice words mate. Thanks for the comment.
Good on ya, Mate! Thank you for sharing and may the wind be at your back in your adventures ahead
Appreciate the nice words mate. Thank you 🙌💪
Marvellous work Tash, really good watch.
What an incredible achievement Sion! All the emotions. ❤
Thank you from both of us ♥️♥️😁
Congratulations Sion- amazing achievement. And Tashie your talents are endless!
Thanks Jules and you are 100% right about Tashi 😁
Huge huge huge CONGRATULATIONS Sion!!!!🎊💪🏃♂🏅💪🎉 PHENOMENAL, just PHENOMENAL!!!! And THANK YOU so much for sharing your incredible journey with us!! I'm an Aussie living in France (20years now) so you can imagine I laughed out loud at your "rude Frenchies" stories, especially them getting stroppy with you for walking around the queue!!🤣 I'm only just breaking into ultras myself with a few 50kms under my belt now, and the last 3 years I was absolutely glued to my computer for 2 days and nights following along the UTMB... It often reduces me to tears just watching!! It's extremely motivating, though not at ALL to do it myself, just to want to be able to run more and run further... 'cause as you say anyway, just way tooooo many people!!! I even used to live at Chamonix , but long before running! I spent a wonderful week at Courmeyeur last summer doing my first ever real training with poles, so I felt for you when you talked about that climb ... after almost 24hrs on the trail quand même!! We had one of our wettest summers ever, it rained almost every day of my 2 weeks training in the Alps, so you really WERE lucky with the weather!!! Colleen Browne (a mountain guide from George, South Africa) did her first UTMB also this year, she managed to finish just under the 44hour mark!🎊💪🏃♀She spent a few weeks before the race living in a tent at the campgrounds just outside Courmeyeur and she got totally flooded out!!! So happy to subscribe and follow along with yours and Tash's future achievements!!! Bloody BRAVO!!!!!!!👏👏👏👏
Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊 It’s amazing to hear that you’ve started breaking into ultras-50km is no small feat, so massive congrats on that! 🙌 I love that you're so connected to UTMB!
It’s crazy how unpredictable the weather can be out there, so big respect for sticking with it through the wet summers in the Alps.
Wow, Colleen Browne finishing just under 44 hours-what a legend! The dedication and resilience it takes to even finish a race like UTMB, especially after living in a tent and enduring flooding, is just phenomenal.
Really appreciate you following along on our journey, and Tash and I are so grateful for your support.
@@sondervail THANKS so much!!!🙋♀
No. Thank you 😁😁♥️
The bench nap / phone on the face story is so rad
Great job and great video
Appreciate it. Thank you so much.
I could listen to your stories for hours loved the honesty ❤ i couldn’t imagine running through the night let alone having illusinations I am so proud of every thing that you do 😍not sure if you should include your Dad and Deian in your adventures I will worry way to much 😂 Tash you are his back bone and you are doing one hell of a great job love you both ❤
I love watching UTMB weekend on YT, BUT its my idea of hell for the reasons you say EG too crowded. Ill find a empty 50k forest trail if you don't mind 😂
What an amazing perspective of the race and summary! Thanks for sharing! And congrats from Germany!
Thank you so much for watching and also commenting, I really appreciate it.
What an honest and interesting account! Well done on your very impressive achievement 👏
Thank you, appreciate you watching and also commenting.
Just WOW! To go through all that and allowing us on the unseen journey with you. Amazing 🎉🎉 well done
Thank you Nina ♥️♥️♥️ I wish filmed more now
11:43
Love your take on it boy after training so hard for it you were never going to DNF your mental strength is just so admirable and sets you apart from most……. you and everyone who finished it are in an elite group of humans I’m am so proud of you boy and can’t wait to see what the three of us are going to do ……..the expectation is intense 😃🏴🇦🇺
Thank you Dad ♥️
I can't wait to see what you and Deian come up with for us to do together 😁
I would have loved to see the look on your face when the French guys put their poles across you lol 😂
Amazing series Tashi! Great to see the UTMB experience from so many different perspectives so people have an understanding of what they are about to embark on.
The hallucinations sound WILD but so proud of you for getting to the finish line!
It’s so hard to keep putting one foot in front of the other when you are so sleep deprived on a course as brutal and humbling as UTMB! INCREDIBLE achievement ❤
Thank you ♥️
UTMB is a wild race and a lot of WILD things happen lol I think each of the 2761 runners who started would have their own crazy experience.
Really amazing video brother. And massive congrats on the finish. I’ve done 50 miles on the flat, and remember crying like a baby as well. What an achievement.
Thank you so much. It's an emotional roller coaster this ultra stuff 😢
Man, maybe I value personal space and sleep too much for UTMB! Great and honest recount, thanks for sharing your stories.
Absolute pleasure. Thanks for the comment.
Awesome insight into a wild 43 hours. Congrats Sion on getting through it considering your ankle and the hallucinations. You put in the hours, the kms, the climbs, the hikes - you deserved to get over the finish line. Loved the series. We need words however regarding your form at 5:39, 14:46 and 21:00. You can't cheat, push people out of the way, then fart in their face 😂 He's gone native.
Hahahaha this made me laugh
That was wild! Congrats on the race. And I agree. It’s way to crowded but it’s good to live it at least once.
I am VERY grateful for the opportunity and I hope that comes across in the video also 😁
It's A LOT of people! A lot 😳
I really enjoyed watching this! Thanks for your up close and personal take on UTMB!
It seemed so different than the livestream! But I'm sure it felt incredible to finish! Congratulations! 🥳
Yes, I was many many hours behind any Livestream lol
Thanks for the nice words 😁
@sondervail Yeah! The media coverage is a bit misleading to those who may aspire to running UTMB one day! Lol! But the support of the crowds must have felt amazing! Thanks for sharing your experience! 🤗
My pleasure.
I will never forget the way the crowds made me feel 😁
Good video recap. Well done. I will link this video to anyone who asks me again why I don't do ultra trail running.
🤣🤣
Wow, I had no idea the traffic got that bad. I got to the start 2 hours before the race last year and didn't experience any of this. This year I got there an hour before and definitely noticed a lot more traffic up until Les Houches at least. Great video! Well done on your finish!
Appreciate it. Thank you 😁
Being at the start line 2 hours early would make a big difference, I was there an hour before and it was too late in my opinion.
@@sondervail I think I probably squeezed my way a little bit more forward than you. But yeah, getting there early makes a big difference.
If I was to go again I would get there two hours early with some food and a chair 🤣😁
This video is the best! Loved every minute of it. Well done.
Thank you mate 💪
This is why I dont do ultra running anymore lot more fun watching it. Its a lot better to look after your body rather then to keep pushing it to the max.
It's definitely type 2 fun (fun that is enjoyable to look back at and relive from the comfort of my lounge) 🤣
Body always comes first 🙌
@sondervail yes but, It's never really helpful for the body to go through two nights of not sleeping. It's a lot better for your body to be doing half's marathon and less!
@@alexdyter8237 appreciate the advice mate. Thank you
The body is ultra capable, we block it from healing by limiting thoughts. We have no ideea what we can do with our bodies. Since he is not running utmb everyweek having should not be a problem for the body. Volume matters. It is like going to gym. If you only do massive exersice 1 day \ month it does not matter.
Appreciate your input.
Absolutely epic mate! That's a superb account, congratulations
Appreciate it. Thank you for the comment 😁
@sondervail You earned it! I ran the TDS a few days before you and whereby I didn't have anything nasty happen hallucination-wise the tricks my eyes played on me particularly the 2nd night, were pretty funky 😃
I have had that in previous races but for whatever reason, this time was bad!
Congratulations on TDS, that's huge 💪
That was a great watch Sion (the whole series)- loved the honesty and has confirmed for me my running days are well and truly over 😂
Tops effort- look forward to what’s next 💪
Hahaha thanks mate. Are you sure? Maybe one more?
I also ran the UTMB this year. Totally recognize your description of the randoms in the starting area. I was baffled being surrounded by spectators in this immensly crowded area holding signs and what not. Brain was also fried at Les Contamines due to all the crowds continuesly raping my eardrums ;)
Randoms at the start line was weird, I kept thinking I was in the wrong spot.
Hope you enjoyed your race mate.
Thanks for the video! Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 i only did a race like CCC and it felt very hard. I am training to be able to do 100 miles utmb course. Big congratulations!🎉
Goodluck with your training, I hope you get in and get to experience everything UTMB offers 😁
Was really not expecting the fart part 😂 Great review, congrats on finishing the thing!
Neither was I !!! Hahaha thanks for the comment 😁
That start is fascinating. I just finished listening to a podcast where a girl described her experience running the CCC and they were actually divided into groups and released with 15 minute difference. Yet still, she had the same experience with being stuck in the crowd on the first climb. I've experienced a 24 minute bottleneck at the Prague Half Marathon and that was quite frustrating. So I felt your frustration when you talked about that experience, haha! Man, that must have been tough.
Congratulations on finishing the race! Sounds like a hell of a journey! Respect!
Yup CCC did go every 15mins and I don't think there is a solution to stop the crowding with that many people. Just apart of the experience 😁
24min in a Marathon is an eternity 😲
Hi Lenka, too bad to hear about your bottleck experience at Prague Half Marathon. At what KM was this congestion? Any tips like "stay on the left or right-handed side there? Prague is certainly on my shortlist of to-do races. Děkuji!
Stay at the front 🤷
(I'm just kidding, hopefully Lenka gets back to you 😁)
@@dresden_slowjog It was at the corridor at the very start of the race. There was no way to go around anywhere as there are roadblocks on both sides. You were given a group based on your estimated time and if it’s your first time, you are going to be all the way back. I was in the second to last group. That’s why the 24 minute wait. 😅
Besides that it was an amazing race and Prague is definitely bucket list worthy! :)
Ok. I'll add it to 😁
Loved your video. I enjoy watching ultra runners talk about their heroics. How can you go so long without your body cramping up or your muscles giving out. Congratulations on your race.
Thank you so much ♥️
I'm definitely not the best person to answer those questions haha
Good job with the video mate! (And the run of course)
Appreciate it mate 😁 proud of both 🙌
congrats !! amazing effort and hope i would finish UTMB miler one day !!
Goodluck with the lottery and I hope you get the feeling of running down the UTMB finish line one day as well ♥️
Wow, that's actually really great. Jeez, the hallucinations ... anyways, great details. Lots of value.
Thank you mate. Appreciate the message
It's like reliving it all over again
That a good thing 🤷
I was always afraid of most of the things that you mention, therefore I never applied for UTMB. Thank you for confirming this, I'll probably never run UTMB/TDS/CCC. There are enough races in Europe.
Although it had flaws, there are still many upsides.
Maybe just park the idea for a bit rather than committing to never running it 😁🤷
What a great Story thanks for sharing congratulations on your epic achievement!
Appreciate it. Thannk you for watching and commenting 😁
Awesome video mate. Congrats
Thank you mate, really appreciate the comment 😁
I notice a lot of parallels between this and a lot of other UTMB races. I ran Mozart 100 this year and the race organization was a total poo show. Lots of congestion at the start, dangerous conditions on course, and aid stations where plain water was almost impossible to access sometimes.
Interesting.
I've done two other races by Ironman UTA & UTK which are both in Australia and they were the most incredible events.
I couldn't pick a single flaw in them.
Amazing insight! I was also on the start line but didn’t make the finish. I’d watched all the TH-cam content on UTMB beforehand but a lot of stuff about the start etc was not covered like you did so nice work…it was a circus ha!!
Sorry to hear mate but congratulations getting in to begin with 💪
I had watched EVERY video out there as well and still things surprised me.
@@sondervail also wanted to say congratulations, amazing resilience making it to the finish line going through two nights with the challenges you faced!
I hiked up the final section to La Flagere on Sunday and probably crossed paths. I was very inspired by everyone that pushed through the full lap.
Appreciate that a lot mate.
Coming down from Le Flegre you would have seen some carnage 😳
It was definitely clear those that were out for their Sunday run and those that were finishing UTMB!
Hahaha
Brings back so much of our time over there. Alan said the same re the farting 😂😂😂
It needs to be spoken about more! It was a real shock 🤢
Definitely an honest perspective!
As honest as I possibly could be 🙌
Great recount mate. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed. Thank you for watching and commenting 😁
That double-pole sounds like a pretty rude way to pass somebody. Don't do what the French do is usually a good way to go.
In hind sight it was a terrible idea to adopt that manoeuver 🤦 I have retired it now but let me know if you ever give it a go 🤣
Any rude behaviour on course I found was always a French runner.
You said it, not me 😁😉
@@jimmcgourty3780even in motocross. French riders are usually a bit dirty
🤣🤣
Congrats! Great to hear your point of view
Appreciate it. Thank you 😁
Congratulations and thanks for the amazing video, now that I know that farting propulsion is allowed I'll definitely gonna train for this race one day 😂
Hahaha thanks mate.
Great to hear a downunder accent. Thanks for this, it was so interesting.
Thank you for watching and the comment. We appreciate it more than you know 😁♥️
Congrats!! Bonus points for random Slipknot reference!
Hahaha I was not loving Slipknot during the race, that's for sure lol
My brother did UTMB in 2017 and told us about his hallucinations 😮. He just did the Tour de Geants and had the same
What a legend doing TOR! That is a wild event 😲
Great video. Subscribed!
We appreciate that more than you know.
Thank you mate.
Yeah, this race used to be "The one" I'd always wanted to do. Not taking anything away from how tough it is or those who have done it but seeing that apparently everyone who did it this year also blogged / vlogged / had an entire film crew with them, it's totally lost it's appeal. Personally, I run in the mountains to escape, to challenge myself. Not stand in a queue with 1000 other people, I could just hop on the Northern line for that kind of experience.
I don't know, something feels very very wrong when I see over 2000 humans each wearing and carrying easily over £1000 worth of kit and gear. It's turned into a very effective marketing tool that all of us have fallen for. I was going to apply for the Lakeland 100 this year, then a friend was like, let's just go any other day of the year and run the same route, then give what would have been our entry fees to one of the local charities.
I get that organised races are a thing, and they are great for getting someone into the sport, or for someone looking to challenge themselves in a "safer" environment. It's just starting to feel like in order to do that we end up making a lot of other people really rather rich.
Yeah, but the vibes were VERY high at times 😁 and I really like good vibes.
Great insight into an amazing race. Can’t wait to throw my hat in the lottery for 2025.
More importantly, love that Tashi is giving the 100k a crack! What one are you going to do Tashi?
We will be there to watch you in 2025 FOR SURE!
There is a 100km in Poland that I have my eye on 🧐
All I’ve gleaned from this is never to do European races because all of the people will be rude and offensive even though they are nowhere near the fastest or best runners.
This wasn't the message I was trying to get across but kinda is the message that came a cross 🤦
Thank you for the video! Started trail running this year, hoping to do a 100 miler soon enough, I hate crowded places though so I would probably not be even considering chamonix in the future, looks cool but not my thing.
Welcome to trail running and that's amazing you are looking at a Miler! Goodluck and I hope you find the perfect race 💪
Thanks for sharing the experience.
Thanks for the honest thoughts, but I guess the majority of runners, some even in the top 5%, don't have a crew, so I would not make a lot out of infrequent crew contact being much of a challenge.
I just really really like seeing my wife during a race 😁
What an incredible achievement! How are you feeling now weeks after the race?
Feeling incredible 😁
Went immediately to Slovenia and summited Mount Triglav ⛰️
We have a video coming out next week about it 😁
Good to hear what’s it’s really like, I’ve ran OCC twice which is a fantastic event and because it starts in 3 waves it’s not to crowded. CCC is hopefully next for me, not sure UTMB would be for me sounds too crowded
That's awesome. I would love to run OCC 😁
That is so crazy about the startline! Never knew that. Seems so stupid and such a quick fix?
It's super cool for the spectators but not ideal for all the runners.
Next time you see footage take a close look, you will see the general public in there 😁
TDS sounds a lot more appealing now!
Good friend of mine ran TDS this year. Bloody hard race 💪
@@sondervail 😀Supposed to be tougher than UTMB! even though its shorter, but a fewer people
Hahaha so interesting to hearing/seeing the other pov; I was one of those stuck in the stairs, there were many running going on the side by the grassy hill, we were all booing y'all 😂😂
Haha sorry 🤦 here is a clip of it which I found.
th-cam.com/users/clipUgkxnKAbeWpHth0o-aIkH0g2_J_nQfjf3apc?si=9iY2su6RFPl7ZGLZ
BTW Congrats on your run and well done on a beaut clip. A fellow Aussie
Appreciate it. Thank you 💪💪💪
Great recap.
Thank you mate. Appreciate the comment.
Came for the running. Staid for the farts :D
Hahahaha very good
#1 thing they don’t tell you… runners poop on the trail. Maybe this should be #2 😮
Yup. I did see this 😳 glasses you added it 🙌
Unless your elite and can run from the front race sounds like a giant waste of time and money. Appreciate the honest review.
Ohh I hope it didn't come across like that.
I don't regret it in any way, shape or form. There were just things I was very unaware of (and I wouldn't do it again) but having experienced it once was great.
Amazing truth....thks so much AND congratulations
Thank you for watching and really appreciate the comment.
Cheating by going across private property without permission of the owner is bad form. Grow up.
All of us were very naughty naughty boys (and girls)
th-cam.com/users/clipUgkxnKAbeWpHth0o-aIkH0g2_J_nQfjf3apc?si=PJOWqHgGuvuJausH
So nice and honest relation. Am I crazy if I want to do it?
Not at all!!!
Do it. Its worth it... Kinda. Sorta. lol
Amazing what you have achieved! ❤
Thank you so much!
This was so interesting
Aww thanks Amie! How'd Tashi'd editing 😲😍
Spectators at the start was very weird.
Couldn't agree more.
dam.. sounds like yor hallucinations were bad! Luckily I just saw a bunch of animals or people sitting which turned out to be rocks or logs. You forgot to mention the record number of people pissing at the beginning half 😂 everywhere I looked someone was taking a wee!
Yup, ive had hallucinations which were pleasant before, unfortunately not this time.
Ohhh so many people going to the toilet! And at night if you accidentally looked over you illuminated them with your head torch lol
Hopw you enjoyed your race.
Lol, forget continents - come to some small islands! New Zealand has some awesome events.
We will 100% be doing a run in New Zealand 😁
when you run, farthing is part of the sport, all anotomic
🏃💨
I think the guy blowing kisses to his wife is Jeff Pelletier. A running TH-camr. Look him and Audrey up. Some good clips. We were in Chamonix to assist my son run. At Condamines they would not let me into assistance as they said he was more than 10 min out. My son rang me saying where was I, he had already been in for 8 minutes!
I know Jeff and this isn't him but thank you. Jeff & Audree do the best videos on TH-cam in my opinion 😁
Frustrating about the checkpoints but hope you and your son enjoyed UTMB 🙌
It was nasty and immoral, you share the troubles with others, and you don't walk over others.
Ohh I did walk AROUND them... Didn't physically walk over them. Hope that makes it a little bit better?
UTMB have gotten greedy.
It's big business now. BIG.
Was this the recent , 2024 event?
Sure was mate 😁
Too big, too crowded, too commercial. Not interested.
Lots of options out there thankfully 👍
Epically R A W
Did it bring back some memories for you Alan? :)
Contamines.
Grand Col Ferret descent.
Hallucinations.
Farts.
'Blackout' sections.
Sleep deprivation.
Scaffolding bridge.
That finish line chute.
But oh boy, that feeling you're now going to carry the belief that you can push yourself to the absolute limits.
Would I do it again? Fuck No.
TMB? Absolutely.
@@sondervail
Sounds like we are on the exact same page 😁🙌
i have done UTMB just with my mates, 2 weeks before this ridiculous display of show business.., no crowds just nature and true soul searching...
Assume you mean TMB and that must have been beautiful 😍
Race was so hard it made him homeless for 15 mins
Hahaha this race took EVERYTHING from me.
White Margaret Thomas Carol Garcia William
I read this as one really long name for some reason 🤷
Not enough teeth at the start of the video unsubbed
Hahahha
Sorry man. I was super stoked to watch your account of your race, but stopping to kiss your partner when you’re supposed to be running is far more dangerous than walking around joyful spectators before the race even begins… also, fair play on the trails dictates that you should fall into line at a bottleneck, and wait like everyone else. You laughing about how you saved yourself 3 minutes while everyone else was being courteous made me had to write this… I do hope you had a good race and can be a positive light in the sport going forward. What a shame 😊
Id risk it all for a kiss from my wife 😁
Here is some footage from the bottleneck 👍

I just want to say that a lot of this story makes you seem like a bad person. Mostly due to the hypocrisy of complaining over multiple behaviours which you then took part in. Also cutting through peoples yard to cut lines, which you dont even acknowledge as wrong, just that others in the race called it out as such.
Yeah, I wasn't proud of the double pole and farting 🤦 I wasn't the best version of myself out there.
Appreciate you pointing out my flaws though 😁 lots to work on.
@@sondervail understandable I suppose, most of us arent our best self in high stress tiring situations
Agreed 😁
"Bad person" is a bit harsh
@@st.peterunner8758 Very possible yes. It's harshly worded by me and he may be a very nice guy, I could be wrong in my judgement. It's how it came off to me in this specific and very limited video.
You are unbelievably incredible!!!!!!! 🫶🏼⭐️
Thank you Nic ♥️♥️♥️
I could listen to your stories for hours loved the honesty ❤ i couldn’t imagine running through the night let alone having illusinations I am so proud of every thing that you do 😍not sure if you should include your Dad and Deian in your adventures I will worry way to much 😂 Tash you are his back bone and you are doing one hell of a great job love you both ❤
