    Came for the mountain views, stayed for the 'stache. Fair trade.

    You're stacking some sturdy weeks mate, that vert is insane!! Keep crushing it Luke.

      Honestly hard pressed not to rack up crazy verts here. Thems some burgs!

    New here! Great to see the trails over there in FR/IT/SW, definitely a dream run destination. Look forward to seeing how you go in UTMB. Also well done in the Kosi race, is my local stomping grounds! 👍Keep it up. Good content and well filmed.

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks! Some solid local trails you got down that way. Plenty of summer and winter fun to be had 🤙

      Not as good as Kiera though… 😂

    Another fantastic vid fella. You have become one of my faves. I've got the stones so hope to do CCC next year. Planning to be in Chamonix for 2 weeks in September, cannot wait.

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks man! Gah it’s so good here. Have the best time!

    Love the videos man! Was in Chamonix for the start of UTMB and the vibe was insane! Super inspiring! I noticed you're wearing the Nordas in this video, would love to hear some of your thoughts on the Norda in future videos! Congrats on the race, smashed it!

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks mate! Yeah the vibe was huge. The whole first 40km was nuts! Nordas are sick. I might do a video on them soon. 🤙

  • @runningwithaj
    @runningwithaj ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Those trails look incredible! The variability would do my head in! Good luck with the heat training. Keep those fluids up.

    • @lukewbarrett

      Thanks man. Drinking is my specialty 😂

    Cracking video. As a bloke who enjoys a beer after a long run it's great to see someone else enjoying one or two on TH-cam.
    How are the new shoes treating you?

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Long run, short run, no run, beers are always in order 😂.
      Shoes are getting more comfortable with every run. Bloody love them.

    Need more old man videos, that 'how to be a support person clip' was ❤

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hahaha TH-cam isn’t ready for the 2nd gen crew apron. You just wait 😂

    Nice work mate. Looks amazing! Looking forward to seeing your journey at UTMB.
    What are you doing for water out on your long runs? Is there plenty of places to fill up? Are you using a filter on your bottles?
    Cheers

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks mate! I have a filter but haven’t used it yet. Plenty of water points along the TMB route. Usually take 1.5L with me and fill up when needed.

    Yo Luke, good luck for utmb! Do you have your pre-race travel itinerary in full somewhere? Would you of of done anything differently so far?

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      You could scope my Strava to find out exactly where we’ve been, but basically Chamonix, Les Contamines, Courmayeur, Champex and then back to Chamonix - all for a week each. I’d plan exactly the same holiday in a heartbeat. Exploring the towns and surrounding trails has been so good.

    New here, great footage!!!
    At 129g/h, how many calories in total per hour? Would love to see a in depth video about that! Something like "6h workout fueling", I expect to see a lot Precision but maybe there's something else :D

    • @lukewbarrett
      @lukewbarrett  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It’s all sugar (precision) with an occasional coke 😂 so the carb to cal calculation is a straight x 4. 129carb = 516cal.
      Thanks!
