   50miles in the Woods - A Wendover Woods Special

   This week we review the Centurion Running Wendover Woods 50 mile race. A looped course of just over 10miles and 2,000ft per loop. The big question was whether Mark could roll back the clock and beat his time from 2017 and whether he could get anywhere near Kev's FKS (Fastest Known Shannon) from his race back in 2018.

   The best trailrunning (and other!) films to keep the motivation high

   With both of us in between races, with a bit of time on our hands we decided to review some of our favourite running films and documentaries. As is very much par for the course, we veered off and ended up covering non-running films that inspire us too as well as discussing which one of our races would have been the best story for the silver screen

   The Wicklow Round - Irelands great unsung mountain round

   This week we look at back to our first ever mountain round - the Wicklow Round in Ireland, a route of 26 peaks, just over 100km and all inside 24 hours. It is a round that is definitely harder than the sum of its parts and one that tested us to our limits in the early days of our ultra running journey
