IT'S POSSIBLE - Paul Youd, Ultra-Marathons at 87

My latest short film and documentary in which features the now infamous Paul Youd, the young whipper snapper is a mere 87 years old and got in to trail running, long distance walking and ultra-marathons just a handful of years ago.

In this film we helped support and documented his journey around the entirety of a 50km ultra-marathon around Bath.

His main support team were some lovely people from Running on Plants and other Vegan Runners.

Paul wants to share his story of being an animal rights activist, fundraising for @vivacharity and how he got healthier moving to a plant-based diet over 20 years ago. You'll find his fundraising link in the description of the film on Youtube.

He is on his way to 100 ultra-marathons before he is 100 years old and today he is also attempting another 50km, the Thames Path Challenge, good luck to Paul today on that and continuuing his aim of 100 ultras over the next 12 years.

Post race interview with Paul Youd done and everything in place now to work on his short-film about his 50k ultra-marathon around Bath and why he is an ambassador for Running on Plants.

Really looking forward to working on this one and sharing his story with you all in the coming months.

This is Paul Youd, an 87 year old vegan ultra-runner that I had the honour of documenting his latest ultra-marathon adventure, 50km around the city of Bath!

You read that right, 87 years old, VEGAN and smashing ultras!

He was supported by @runningonplants and their team and everyone made it to the finish line, inspired by Paul and his story! Make sure to check out their wonderful organisation.

A film will be in the works of this adventure to watch at www.youtube.com/@kelpandfern in the coming weeks and you'll learn more about Paul and why he went vegan and how he got in to running later on in life.

Stories like this are supported by members and small donations from people like you and I am proud that Kelp and Fern is not sponsored or supported by brands which means that I can document stories exactly like this, which otherwise wouldn't happen.
