-Running is instinctive. | 0:00:18 | 0:00:20 | |
-It's natural -and an integral part of my life... | 0:00:20 | 0:00:24 | |
-..that pulls me back -over and over again. | 0:00:24 | 0:00:27 | |
-It's something -that makes me feel like me. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:31 | |
-A lot of people don't understand -why I do what I do. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:41 | |
-Why do I put myself through -this physical and mental torture? | 0:00:41 | 0:00:46 | |
-But running makes me happy. | 0:00:46 | 0:00:49 | |
-My name is Lowri Morgan. | 0:00:52 | 0:00:54 | |
-I've been incredibly lucky to have -travelled the world on adventures. | 0:01:00 | 0:01:05 | |
-I'm like a lot of people... | 0:01:06 | 0:01:08 | |
-..of not appreciating -what we have on our own doorstep. | 0:01:08 | 0:01:12 | |
-Ever since I was a child, I've -enjoyed some sort of adventure. | 0:01:13 | 0:01:18 | |
-I've spent hours in -the adventure playground of Wales. | 0:01:18 | 0:01:22 | |
-I've learnt that you get -a special type of euphoria... | 0:01:23 | 0:01:26 | |
-..after completing something -that truly challenged you. | 0:01:27 | 0:01:30 | |
-This time, -I wanted a home-grown adventure. | 0:01:31 | 0:01:34 | |
-This isn't a competitive race -but a personal challenge. | 0:01:34 | 0:01:38 | |
-Many have completed -the Welsh Three Peaks Challenge... | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
-..so I wanted to try and run -from one to the other. | 0:01:43 | 0:01:46 | |
-I'd run from Llanberis, at the foot -of Snowdon, to Cader Idris... | 0:01:46 | 0:01:51 | |
-..a total of 50 miles -or an ultra marathon... | 0:01:51 | 0:01:54 | |
-..and 100 miles in two days to reach -the end at the summit of Pen y Fan. | 0:01:54 | 0:01:59 | |
-That's 150 miles in three days. | 0:01:59 | 0:02:02 | |
-The 3/3/3 is three peaks, -three ultra marathons in three days! | 0:02:02 | 0:02:06 | |
-I didn't want to break records -so took the opportunity... | 0:02:09 | 0:02:14 | |
-..to run alongside some of our -inspirational endurance athletes. | 0:02:14 | 0:02:20 | |
-I've never met anyone -as determined as Lowri. | 0:02:20 | 0:02:25 | |
-She gets into the zone and there's -no stopping her once she's in it. | 0:02:25 | 0:02:30 | |
-There's something about her -and she has this inner strength. | 0:02:30 | 0:02:35 | |
-I'm told that I could run -before I could walk... | 0:02:35 | 0:02:39 | |
-..and sought adventure -at every turn. | 0:02:39 | 0:02:42 | |
-That desire has never gone. | 0:02:43 | 0:02:45 | |
-But these challenges -are never easy... | 0:02:46 | 0:02:49 | |
-..and every day life -often gets in the way. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
-Hello and welcome to Ralio! | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
-I've been working with Lowri -for 15 years... | 0:02:56 | 0:03:00 | |
-..on Ralio and her challenges -around the world. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
-She works full-time -but still finds the time to train. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:09 | |
-She isn't a professional runner -and just like one of us. | 0:03:09 | 0:03:14 | |
-One of the biggest challenges -in life is being a parent. | 0:03:16 | 0:03:20 | |
-In 2015, our lives totally changed! | 0:03:20 | 0:03:24 | |
-There's three weeks before -I give birth to my first child. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
-I'm walking into the unknown. | 0:03:29 | 0:03:31 | |
-I don't know how I'll cope -with the birth... | 0:03:32 | 0:03:35 | |
-..or how my body will react -and recover. | 0:03:35 | 0:03:38 | |
-As soon as Gwilym arrived... | 0:03:40 | 0:03:42 | |
-..it was a shock to the system -to return to my original fitness. | 0:03:42 | 0:03:46 | |
-I'm now the mother of Gwilym Seth. | 0:03:49 | 0:03:53 | |
-He's now six weeks old. | 0:03:54 | 0:03:57 | |
-I started back running -a fortnight after the birth. | 0:03:57 | 0:04:01 | |
-It was a very tough -training session... | 0:04:01 | 0:04:04 | |
-..but I've almost rediscovered -my running legs. | 0:04:04 | 0:04:10 | |
-I'm back up to speed but -my endurance has gone completely. | 0:04:10 | 0:04:14 | |
-It frightens me -as I've got to start all over again. | 0:04:15 | 0:04:18 | |
-And I started to question -if I was pushing myself too much. | 0:04:19 | 0:04:24 | |
-At one time, -I could run 350 miles non-stop... | 0:04:24 | 0:04:28 | |
-..but was now struggling -to complete three miles! | 0:04:28 | 0:04:32 | |
-How on earth was I going to run -150 miles in three days? | 0:04:33 | 0:04:37 | |
-This was going to be -a massive challenge. | 0:04:37 | 0:04:40 | |
-I had new responsibilities now... | 0:04:46 | 0:04:48 | |
-..and I couldn't spend -ten hours a day on the mountains... | 0:04:49 | 0:04:52 | |
-..as I did in the past. | 0:04:53 | 0:04:55 | |
-I had no choice but to squeeze -in my training during the day. | 0:04:55 | 0:05:00 | |
-The training sessions -were shorter... | 0:05:00 | 0:05:03 | |
-..but they were more intense -and a race against time. | 0:05:03 | 0:05:07 | |
-If you fall, you get back up. | 0:05:07 | 0:05:09 | |
-I had to do those miles quicker... | 0:05:09 | 0:05:12 | |
-..because I had to get home -to feed Gwilym. | 0:05:12 | 0:05:16 | |
-Who's going to win this race? | 0:05:16 | 0:05:19 | |
-When Gwilym was one... | 0:05:20 | 0:05:22 | |
-..the desire to push the boundaries -was stronger than ever. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:26 | |
-I chose to race every month -in the build up to the 3/3/3. | 0:05:26 | 0:05:30 | |
-I decided that my first race -would be the Vale Ultra. | 0:05:30 | 0:05:34 | |
-It's 32 miles along the coast -of the Vale of Glamorgan. | 0:05:34 | 0:05:38 | |
-This is the ideal way -to prepare for a race. | 0:05:48 | 0:05:52 | |
-I'm changing a nappy! | 0:05:52 | 0:05:54 | |
-The preparations were unlike -anything I'd done before... | 0:05:54 | 0:05:59 | |
-..but my motive was just the same. | 0:05:59 | 0:06:01 | |
-I'm really nervous but excited too. | 0:06:04 | 0:06:06 | |
-I can't wait to start so I can see -where I stand with my fitness. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:12 | |
-In ultra marathons, you want to -get to the start and reach the end. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:16 | |
-I've got myself to the start. | 0:06:17 | 0:06:19 | |
-Today's challenge -is to cross the finish line... | 0:06:20 | 0:06:23 | |
-..so fingers crossed! | 0:06:23 | 0:06:25 | |
-I expected that competitive streak -to surface... | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
-..but I was also worried -about my fitness levels... | 0:06:39 | 0:06:45 | |
-..and how I would cope if -I wasn't able to complete the race. | 0:06:45 | 0:06:50 | |
-What would I do if I had to pull out -of the race? | 0:06:50 | 0:06:54 | |
-I felt totally driven -because I had Gwilym now. | 0:07:03 | 0:07:09 | |
-I'm alright at the moment. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:11 | |
-I wanted to show him -that I was taking part. | 0:07:11 | 0:07:14 | |
-I might not win and I might not even -finish the race... | 0:07:14 | 0:07:19 | |
-..because I had no idea where -I stood in terms of my fitness. | 0:07:19 | 0:07:23 | |
-I was totally adamant -that I wanted my son to grow up... | 0:07:24 | 0:07:29 | |
-..knowing that the race position -isn't important... | 0:07:29 | 0:07:33 | |
-..but it's about doing your best. | 0:07:33 | 0:07:35 | |
-I might be taking a risk by going -too quickly but I feel alright. | 0:07:35 | 0:07:40 | |
-Go on, Lowri! | 0:07:40 | 0:07:41 | |
-This is when the race starts. | 0:07:54 | 0:07:56 | |
-The runner in third place -is just ahead of me... | 0:08:01 | 0:08:04 | |
-..but there's another climb to go. | 0:08:04 | 0:08:06 | |
-I finished in fourth. | 0:08:07 | 0:08:09 | |
-It was a massive shock. | 0:08:09 | 0:08:11 | |
-I didn't think I was going -to finish the race at all. | 0:08:11 | 0:08:16 | |
-I'm really, really happy with that. | 0:08:17 | 0:08:21 | |
-Yes, that's it. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:23 | |
-It's the start of the challenge. | 0:08:23 | 0:08:25 | |
-There's very little time left -for me to train. | 0:08:28 | 0:08:31 | |
-Most of my training is spent pushing -the pram so I'm feeling stronger. | 0:08:32 | 0:08:37 | |
-I wasn't sure about my endurance -until today. | 0:08:37 | 0:08:40 | |
-I'm really happy... | 0:08:40 | 0:08:42 | |
-..to have been able to run 32 miles -relatively comfortably. | 0:08:42 | 0:08:47 | |
-One thing that stood out -is that I felt mentally strong. | 0:08:47 | 0:08:52 | |
-I had so much more -to give to the race. | 0:08:52 | 0:08:56 | |
-I felt sick. | 0:08:57 | 0:08:58 | |
-My body had gone into a massive -state of shock after finishing it... | 0:08:59 | 0:09:05 | |
-..because I hadn't run as quickly -or as far in two years. | 0:09:05 | 0:09:10 | |
-My next biggest challenge -was something very foreign to me... | 0:09:16 | 0:09:20 | |
-..which was running in a team. | 0:09:21 | 0:09:23 | |
-If I'm honest, I'm the sort of -person who enjoys running on my own. | 0:09:24 | 0:09:28 | |
-It allows the soul to rest. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:31 | |
-But this time, -I joined four other women. | 0:09:31 | 0:09:35 | |
-Two of us were runners... | 0:09:35 | 0:09:39 | |
-..and the other three were sailors. | 0:09:39 | 0:09:42 | |
-The challenge was -to sail from Barmouth to Snowdon. | 0:09:42 | 0:09:47 | |
-Jo and I would run to the summit -of Snowdon and back... | 0:09:47 | 0:09:52 | |
-..which was 25 miles. | 0:09:52 | 0:09:54 | |
-Next, we'd sail to Whitehaven -and cycle and run 40 miles... | 0:09:55 | 0:09:59 | |
-..before finishing the journey -at Fort William... | 0:09:59 | 0:10:03 | |
-..and run 20 miles -to the summit of Ben Nevis. | 0:10:03 | 0:10:06 | |
-We ended up winning the race -and I'm so proud of that fact. | 0:10:10 | 0:10:15 | |
-I enjoyed the experience -more than I expected... | 0:10:15 | 0:10:19 | |
-..because I'd made -an incredible group of friends. | 0:10:20 | 0:10:24 | |
-We all shared the same mentality... | 0:10:24 | 0:10:28 | |
-..and worked so well together. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
-That was the secret to our success. | 0:10:32 | 0:10:34 | |
-I think that I coped well -with the summits... | 0:10:37 | 0:10:42 | |
-..and felt strong -throughout the race. | 0:10:42 | 0:10:45 | |
-I returned to Wales -with a massive smile on my face. | 0:10:45 | 0:10:51 | |
-But why have millions upon millions -of us started running? | 0:10:56 | 0:11:01 | |
-It's a question that gives you -a host of various answers... | 0:11:01 | 0:11:05 | |
-..from different runners. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:08 | |
-Some want to be the fastest. | 0:11:09 | 0:11:11 | |
-Others want to better themselves, -to inspire or help a cause. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:15 | |
-There's people like me -who challenge the elements. | 0:11:15 | 0:11:19 | |
-We take the mind and body to places -they have never been before. | 0:11:19 | 0:11:24 | |
-It's an incredible feeling. | 0:11:29 | 0:11:31 | |
-It was hard work but I've done it. | 0:11:31 | 0:11:34 | |
-I couldn't have given any more. | 0:11:35 | 0:11:37 | |
-There's 175 miles to go... | 0:11:38 | 0:11:42 | |
-..and my feet are in pieces. | 0:11:42 | 0:11:45 | |
-Running, no matter the distance, -is a roller coaster of emotions. | 0:11:45 | 0:11:51 | |
-With every low, there's -always an incredible high! | 0:11:51 | 0:11:56 | |
-. | 0:12:00 | 0:12:01 | |

-One of the reasons -that people take up running... | 0:12:10 | 0:12:15 | |
-..is to raise money for charity. | 0:12:15 | 0:12:17 | |
-I'm very passionate about that. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:20 | |
-It's important that I use -the fact that I can run... | 0:12:20 | 0:12:25 | |
-..to help those -less fortunate than me. | 0:12:25 | 0:12:28 | |
-I was invited to join -Steven, Phil and Alan... | 0:12:28 | 0:12:33 | |
-..to run around Anglesey. | 0:12:33 | 0:12:35 | |
-The challenge was 100 miles -in 24 hours. | 0:12:35 | 0:12:40 | |
-I couldn't turn it down. | 0:12:40 | 0:12:42 | |
-Go on! | 0:12:43 | 0:12:44 | |
-Running 100 miles -is an incredible way to train. | 0:12:53 | 0:12:58 | |
-You go through so many highs -and lows in a long period of time. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:03 | |
-It teaches you to cope -with those mental pains... | 0:13:04 | 0:13:09 | |
-..and the little voices in your head -that are telling you to stop. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:14 | |
-Oh, I'm trying to stay positive. | 0:13:14 | 0:13:17 | |
-I'm feeling fine, I'm feeling fine. | 0:13:18 | 0:13:21 | |
-My body shuts down as soon as -my thoughts become negative. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:26 | |
-When you spend hours -with a group of runners... | 0:13:26 | 0:13:30 | |
-..you develop -a real sense of comradery. | 0:13:30 | 0:13:33 | |
-It's tough when the group splits up -as a result of illness or injury. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:37 | |
-This happened to Alan and Steven. | 0:13:38 | 0:13:40 | |
-Four became two, -leaving Phil and me. | 0:13:40 | 0:13:43 | |
-My legs really feel -as if they're covered 89 miles. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:53 | |
-I crossed that finish line -and felt very strong mentally. | 0:13:55 | 0:13:59 | |
-That 100 miles was very important -for me psychologically... | 0:13:59 | 0:14:03 | |
-..for my training... | 0:14:03 | 0:14:05 | |
-..because it's a similar distance. | 0:14:05 | 0:14:08 | |
-Running 100 miles was training -for my mind as well as my body. | 0:14:09 | 0:14:14 | |
-Staying on my feet for 30 hours -was a real confidence booster. | 0:14:14 | 0:14:19 | |
-The saying goes... | 0:14:21 | 0:14:22 | |
-.."by failing to prepare, -you are preparing to fail." | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
-I sought the advice of my friend, -Matt Ward. | 0:14:27 | 0:14:30 | |
-Matt has great credibility -in this field. | 0:14:30 | 0:14:33 | |
-He's worked with the world's best -runners and running teams... | 0:14:33 | 0:14:38 | |
-..and was ready to help me -to fulfil my dream. | 0:14:38 | 0:14:41 | |
-I don't know how you would describe -the challenge to an ordinary person. | 0:14:41 | 0:14:46 | |
-You're running from Snowdon -to Cader Idris and to Pen y Fan... | 0:14:47 | 0:14:51 | |
-..in a timescale of three days! | 0:14:51 | 0:14:53 | |
-Um... most people would say -that you're bonkers! | 0:14:54 | 0:14:57 | |
-Yes, I agree. | 0:14:57 | 0:14:59 | |
-The Welsh Three Peaks Challenge -is something iconic in itself. | 0:15:01 | 0:15:07 | |
-Most ordinary folk would think -that it's a tough challenge. | 0:15:07 | 0:15:11 | |
-But Lowri is running between -each summit in three days... | 0:15:12 | 0:15:17 | |
-..and it's truly incredible. | 0:15:18 | 0:15:20 | |
-I didn't think she was totally nuts -because I knew Lowri could do it. | 0:15:20 | 0:15:25 | |
-It's possible. | 0:15:25 | 0:15:26 | |
-But it's a really tough challenge. | 0:15:27 | 0:15:29 | |
-A recce is important -with any long-distance challenge. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:36 | |
-Viewing some of the climbs -will settle the nerves... | 0:15:36 | 0:15:40 | |
-..whilst other climbs -could make me more unsettled. | 0:15:40 | 0:15:43 | |
-But knowing about the areas... | 0:15:44 | 0:15:47 | |
-..that are awkward -and challenging... | 0:15:47 | 0:15:50 | |
-..is very important for the mind. | 0:15:50 | 0:15:53 | |
-I need to familiarize myself -with the sections. | 0:15:54 | 0:15:57 | |
-The last thing I want to do -on a 150-mile challenge... | 0:15:58 | 0:16:03 | |
-..is to get lost -and add more mileage. | 0:16:03 | 0:16:05 | |
-I'll follow you. | 0:16:06 | 0:16:07 | |
-We won't get lost. | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
-I'd be amazed if Lowri doesn't have -moments where she wants to quit. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:14 | |
-It's part of the challenge. | 0:16:14 | 0:16:16 | |
-It's easy to start... | 0:16:16 | 0:16:18 | |
-..but difficult to stop. | 0:16:19 | 0:16:20 | |
-That's another section to tick off. | 0:16:21 | 0:16:24 | |
-We're making headway -down to Machynlleth. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:27 | |
-There will be demons -no matter what she does. | 0:16:27 | 0:16:31 | |
-She's going to have dark -and emotional times. | 0:16:31 | 0:16:34 | |
-She'll be thinking about her family -and Gwilym... | 0:16:34 | 0:16:38 | |
-..and yet, -in these sorts of challenges... | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
-..when the body gets tired, you -think about the strangest of things. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:48 | |
-Lowri will complete this challenge. | 0:16:48 | 0:16:50 | |
-I have no doubt about it. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:53 | |
-The challenges -Lowri has faced over the years... | 0:16:53 | 0:16:56 | |
-..inspires people -to do their very best. | 0:16:56 | 0:17:00 | |
-That's the great thing about Lowri. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:02 | |
-There isn't a bar -that everyone has to reach. | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
-There isn't a level -for competitive athletes to reach. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:09 | |
-You set your own level -but try to do better every day... | 0:17:10 | 0:17:14 | |
-..and you might even enjoy it! | 0:17:14 | 0:17:17 | |
-In the other massive challenges... | 0:17:17 | 0:17:21 | |
-..I always stop about five miles -before the end to thank my feet. | 0:17:21 | 0:17:26 | |
-I thank my body for holding together -and carrying me along. | 0:17:26 | 0:17:30 | |
-You'll do it. | 0:17:31 | 0:17:32 | |
-There will be ups and downs. | 0:17:32 | 0:17:34 | |
-I don't just mean the mountains -but psychologically too. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:38 | |
-Good morning. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:47 | |
-Um... | 0:17:47 | 0:17:48 | |
-It's the morning of the -75-mile Pen Llyn Ultra Marathon... | 0:17:49 | 0:17:55 | |
-..and I spent the night -sleeping in the car! | 0:17:55 | 0:17:58 | |
-It isn't the best of preparations... | 0:17:59 | 0:18:01 | |
-..but I'm worried -about the way I feel. | 0:18:01 | 0:18:05 | |
-I've got a cold -and it's in my chest. | 0:18:05 | 0:18:08 | |
-I've been suffering with it -for a fortnight... | 0:18:09 | 0:18:12 | |
-..and there's only three weeks -until the 3/3/3... | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
-..so I'm feeling a bit unsettled. | 0:18:16 | 0:18:19 | |
-I don't know how I'm going -to get through today's race. | 0:18:19 | 0:18:24 | |
-I don't know how I'll cope -with 75 miles. | 0:18:24 | 0:18:27 | |
-I have to think about my health -and the challenge in the long-term. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:33 | |
-I don't want to give -too much to this race... | 0:18:34 | 0:18:37 | |
-..so that I can't complete -the 3/3/3. | 0:18:37 | 0:18:40 | |
-That's important. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:42 | |
-Three, two, one... | 0:18:43 | 0:18:45 | |
-..go! | 0:18:46 | 0:18:47 | |
-I knew straight away -that I wasn't in good health... | 0:18:51 | 0:18:56 | |
-..and I really struggled -with this race... | 0:18:56 | 0:19:00 | |
-..but I kept going. | 0:19:01 | 0:19:03 | |
-I literally just put one foot -in front of the other. | 0:19:03 | 0:19:07 | |
-This is the first checkpoint. | 0:19:16 | 0:19:19 | |
-I've been running for an hour -and a half and I'm losing my voice. | 0:19:19 | 0:19:24 | |
-I feel tight-chested -and get light-headed in the climbs. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:29 | |
-I'm just trying -to look after myself. | 0:19:30 | 0:19:32 | |
-I feel comfortable at the moment. | 0:19:32 | 0:19:35 | |
-I don't feel very strong. | 0:19:36 | 0:19:37 | |
-I'm in good company -so am enjoying the chatting. | 0:19:39 | 0:19:42 | |
-It's ten miles -to the next checkpoint. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:02 | |
-I've done 27 miles to get here. | 0:20:03 | 0:20:05 | |
-I'll try to make it -to the next checkpoint. | 0:20:05 | 0:20:08 | |
-At the moment, I can only focus -on reaching the next checkpoint... | 0:20:08 | 0:20:13 | |
-..and we'll see how far I get! | 0:20:13 | 0:20:15 | |
-A mile into the race, I told -the runners that I couldn't do it... | 0:20:18 | 0:20:23 | |
-..but I managed to reach mile 45. | 0:20:23 | 0:20:27 | |
-It was a hot day. | 0:20:28 | 0:20:30 | |
-I was suffering and starting -to lose patience with myself... | 0:20:30 | 0:20:36 | |
-..so I decided that the wisest move -was to keep my energy for the 3/3/3. | 0:20:36 | 0:20:42 | |
-I've never had a DNF mark -next to my name before... | 0:20:45 | 0:20:50 | |
-..but those three letters -can now be found in my running CV. | 0:20:50 | 0:20:55 | |
-I've run 45 miles -in nine and a half hours... | 0:20:56 | 0:21:00 | |
-..and there's nothing left -in the tank. | 0:21:01 | 0:21:04 | |
-I had a huge battle with myself -before I stepped down... | 0:21:05 | 0:21:09 | |
-..because I've never given up -on anything in my life. | 0:21:10 | 0:21:13 | |
-But I had to think about -the situation in the long-term. | 0:21:14 | 0:21:19 | |
-I also had to think about my family -and my health. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:23 | |
-I have a heart defect. | 0:21:23 | 0:21:25 | |
-When you start -to question things like that... | 0:21:25 | 0:21:29 | |
-..you have to back out. | 0:21:29 | 0:21:31 | |
-There are more important things in -this world than completing a race. | 0:21:32 | 0:21:37 | |
-I'm currently in Ulster working -on the television programme, Ralio. | 0:21:39 | 0:21:45 | |
-I feel awful. | 0:21:45 | 0:21:47 | |
-I haven't shifted the cold -since the 75-mile race. | 0:21:47 | 0:21:51 | |
-The most frightening thing -at the moment... | 0:21:52 | 0:21:55 | |
-..is that my mentality -has changed quite a lot. | 0:21:55 | 0:21:59 | |
-I'm currently wondering if I should -withdraw from this challenge... | 0:21:59 | 0:22:05 | |
-..and I'm starting to question... | 0:22:05 | 0:22:07 | |
-..whether I can complete -all the miles that lie ahead of me. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:12 | |
-And I really don't like -having these thoughts at all. | 0:22:12 | 0:22:16 | |
-Not completing -the Pen Llyn Ultra Marathon... | 0:22:19 | 0:22:22 | |
-..makes me very nervous -as I travel to Snowdon. | 0:22:23 | 0:22:26 | |
-I've started to question myself. | 0:22:27 | 0:22:29 | |
-Am I healthy enough? | 0:22:29 | 0:22:31 | |
-Are my legs strong enough? | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
-Have I done too much running? | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
-I need to believe in myself. | 0:22:37 | 0:22:39 | |
-I know that. | 0:22:39 | 0:22:40 | |
-But I can't ignore that uncertainty -that's in the back of my mind. | 0:22:40 | 0:22:46 | |
-How many times have I looked in the -mirror and thought I can't do it? | 0:22:49 | 0:22:54 | |
-But I have to listen to that -tiny voice in the back of my mind. | 0:22:54 | 0:22:59 | |
-The one that tells me to dig deep... | 0:22:59 | 0:23:01 | |
-..and find those reasons... | 0:23:02 | 0:23:04 | |
-..that will help me to climb out -of this hole of uncertainty... | 0:23:05 | 0:23:10 | |
-..and get me back -to where I want to be. | 0:23:10 | 0:23:13 | |
-That's what I've got to do today. | 0:23:14 | 0:23:16 | |
-I've got to do my very best. | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
-I need to try and be brave. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
-If tomorrow is anything like today, -then I won't finish in three days. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:26 | |
-I'm serious! | 0:23:26 | 0:23:28 | |
