Visiting #LeicesterVictoria #parkrun this morning and representing #VeganRunnersUK and #IdiotsInVests. It's a nice 3 (and a bit) lap course on asphalt, with a slight incline near the end of each lap.
Premiering next Friday the 19th September at www.Youtube.com/@KelpandFern

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.

Unlike most in the trail and ultra world, we are not sponsored by brands and It's thanks to the Youtube members, Patreon supporters and those that have donated over the years that films like this are possible and thanks to every comment, thumbs up and subscriber as every little helps as we pursue to tell stories in the trail and ultra-running world that otherwise would go untold.

The turning point on yesterdays 2 hour trail run on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, just a lovely couple of hours with Otter.

Spent 30 minutes filming to add to a video talking about this years releases as well as some non-documentary projects i've been working, in some cases, for over 2 years.

They won't be merch or products that you might think, these are brand new innovative creations made specifically for trail and ultra runners and they ask less of the world and question whether the industry is doing enough #forthetrail

Super excited and nervous at the same time and more updates about these coming out in the next week leading up to the video release were I explain more.

Weekly #REDJanuary update. Snow and ice have gone now, so I'm reducing the number of minimum-distance runs.

I had a long, tiring workday on Wednesday and a short run at the end of it made me feel so much better!

After 3 weeks off following the ultra, was starting to get withdrawal symptoms! Hopped down to #Felixstowe which is a totally flat course (as the hamstrings aren't quite up to even the tiniest hill yet!) for my first #ParkRun in forever!

Was exceptionally hot, jeffed 2:1 from the first mile after my heart rate started hitting 180 and my watch started sounding the sirens! 🚨🚨🚨

43:34 according to the watch, PB is around 37 so not all that bad for me!

That was a tough old race today (and my longest ever run). The Excalibur Half Marathon around and over Moel Famau, representing #VeganRunnersUK

The weather was gorgeous, but it was so hot! 🥵

Did the Monsal Trail Parkrun with Boy 1 on Saturday. Out and back course, but nice scenery #VeganRunnersUK #Parkrun #MonsalTrail #PeakDistrict
Another 10k in the bag. #veganrunnersuk #vegan #veganman
Great #parkrun test at Muncaster Castle this morning. 78 runners turned out to test the course and give the volunteers a practice before the official first run in the 16th. Quite a hilly course with spectacular views of the Eskdale valley and Scarfell Pike, it’ll be a hit with the #parkrun tourists.
