The Ultrarunning Thread

5 mins left lads

The guy Eric talking is one of his training partners and one of his best friends

How would you keep form like that and your legs gone to jelly? :man_shrugging:

This guy has twice broke the record at the Western States 100 miler trail ultra. Heā€™s fast.

800 metres to go.

Jaysus be to fuck itā€™s hard watch that. The man is a straight out animal.

SCENES

Oh jaysus

Thatā€™s heartbreaking

Iā€™m very disappointed in you

Poor cunt ,10 secs off after 100k

Fuckā€¦ I thought he had it.

Worst commentary ever, no indication of what he needed to do pace wise for last mile or so. They were talking like he just had to finish to get the record.

They were brutal.

Xavier next door texted me there

ā€œThink he lost it while checking his watch so oftenā€ :sweat_smile:

Your man with the record must be at home laughing his hole off

ā€œ5 minutes to the world recordā€. Only tuned in with 8 minutes on the clock and they hadnā€™t a clue. Iā€™d a fair idea when they said heā€™d 800m to go with less than 3 minutes on the clock that he wasnā€™t going to do it,.The main guy seemed to think he just had to keep going for 5 mins and the pace didnā€™t matter.
