Wow....this was great guys. Victoria, that was mental. So inspiring! You're courageous allowing yourself to be recorded suffering like you were. (I think I would have thrown a few cameras in the Thames!) So happy you both achieved such a great goal with the Slam. No doubt that last race taught you a lot about yourselves in a really good way that very few will ever understand. Overcoming that brutal experience through grit and determination is life changing. My favourite part was Victoria holding those buckles up at the end. It seems so ridiculous doesn't it....but they represent blood sweat and tears....and vomit! Respect to both of you!

Incredible effort and a really great documentary video series. The absolute resilience and determination to get through that challenge is truly inspirational. Stark honesty and suffering doesn’t make easy viewing; but with all the adversity it’s the amazing will power and spirit to overcome the adversity that’s the lesson for us all. This channel has inspired most of my ‘back of the pack’ adventures over the last year and I promise to adopt the 'just go for it' mantra in 2024! - Chapeau Victoria!

@@FilmMyRunI don’t fancy the mud bath of the Thames 100, so which of the other three would you suggest I should do as my first?

@FilmMyRun 7 ай бұрын

@@trailrunningphil it’s not always a mud bath. It just depends on the weather in the preceding weeks. The South Downs Way is my favourite and I think it’s an amazing first 100. But if you want a flat run then the A100 is probably your best bet. Flat doesn’t always mean easy though!
