Those records are ten and 7 years old, Aidanās best is one k less which after 24 hours running isnāt al that much,
Iām sticking with my man
Keith is the GOAT. Cork man too.
Capell wins. 20 hours and 19 minutes. Pretty much ran 20 hours out in front on his own. Devastating performance.
Probably mentioned already in the thread but the Barkley Marathon doc on Netflix is a great watch. Nutters. Most years nobody finishes
Theyāre programmed differently. Itās unreal.
+1 to this, very good story well told, interesting characters, thereās some great footage of Killian Jornet descending mountains like a goat in fast forward,
That man has no fear. The only one of them still standing strong in the sport a decade later. He is an absolute machine going down a mountain
Cheers pal. I was up at a screening in Tollymore of it in December. Am working on another project that Paddy is part of so was having a chat with him. Can confirm that heās a decent sort
Yep. Lot of brainy mathematicians and scientists tend to be attracted to ultrarunning
He was the laziest fucker out of his whole family. Would be dragged to underage stuff and would sit in the car not wanting to watch running as it was too boring. Had some kind of Eureka moment in his late teens or early 20s. Itās mad when you think of it.
Tread/trail run carefully here mate
He did a few runs before he moved to the States but not much. His main sport was lacrosse (Irish international)
Thatās been sped up
Interesting to see what happened to Geoff Roes, who featured in the Unbreakable doc I posted a few weeks back
What are these lads running away from?
