In preparation for our ultra in 3 weeks, @Chris Jones and I sat off at 2300hrs last night for a long, slow night run. We ended up covering 22km of mountains and roads, and it was good to test some kit and nutrition/hydration throughout the night.

How is everything going for everyone on here??

Running won. let’s keep it simple! 20km by Friday 2359 cut off. ideally a minimum of 3 runs don’t want anyone going out and blasting 20k Friday afternoon if they don’t usually run that far. We know it’s easy to vote on a poll, can you commit to the challenge? For those sickos who voted for the burpees…. I’ve got a challenge in mind I’ll keep it in my back pocket for now✅

So…. Gentlemen. StrongDads ended 2025 with 26k log carry through the night through the Welsh hills. We are now looking at the first big challenge of 2026, are you in? 100km trail ultramarathon in the Gower, south of wales🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️ This will be a great challenge – the spectacular Gower Peninsula with its stunning coastal path and scenery provides the backdrop for an incredible route. With a basecamp at Penrice Castle, it’s a figure of 8 loop for 100km challengers. 18th-19th of July (Saturday to Sunday) not a Thursday to Friday like I said in the video❌ Let’s gauge some interest then we can put a plan together on how we are going to put an entry together. https://www.ultrachallenge.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/1698326102-GP-2026-FactSheet-v1.pdf Who’s in?!?!⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿⛰️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Iv always wanted to do the goruck event. 12 hours of press ups, squats, sand bag exercises and rucking. But they don’t do it in the uk. Who’s up for doing one ourselves. What’s your thoughts?
