TDS 2009
I'm not running this race which is part of the UTMB family of races. But the video is superb and gives a real flavour of what running any of the UTMB races is like - superb mountain scenery and such local support you would not believe all the way through.
George Reid and Andy Cole are running this race in 2010 - it'll be great guys!
Great vid! - Is it the George Reid Mountain Guide per chance? Only i worked with him a few years back on Berghaus in Scotland. If it is please say hello!
I've been running for around 9 years with 4 years of ultra running. I prefer trail, fell and mountain events. Other than that I am a balding Glaswegian academic living in England with an Australian wife and a little daughter called Eilidh.
I thoroughly enjoy running, and running for very long distances over trail and fell terrain in particular. I originally created this blog to document my training for the West Highland Way Race, a 95 mile ultra in Scotland. Now that I have completed the race, this blog will be a place for me to share thoughts on running, racing and life in general. Please feel free to comment or to let me know you have a related blog - I'll link it and read whenever I have the time.
