Well done Dan, keep at it. My training has gone well😊

[TheRunningMaster]

Great video. Rain, mud, fog, early mornings...the life of a runner! 👍

Hi Dan!!! Another awesome week! Good job

[ThatRunningGuy]

Great week Dan, can’t say I’m looking forward to next week 🥶

[markdavinson]

Another good week Dan. Running in bad weather is part of the toughening up process for your ultra. We already know you won’t quit after seeing those soggy runs. I’ve been out for a snowy run today. Its fun in the snow, not so much when it starts to melt.

Well done!!! great video. My training is on hold due to my knee.

I think we all know that ugh! feeling and that it normally goes after a couple of miles. Glad to see that I am not the only one who talks to the local sheep. Looks like your training plan is working; I did my long run yesterday and just got out this morning before the snow hit. All the best.

That was a solid week of running mate you should be really proud of that! Cracking job matey! Thanks for the double mention in this one mate. Really appreciate it 😊👍🏻 roll on week 6! 😎🤘🏻

Dan - kudos on another excellent week of training. You're doing amazing with the Saturday long runs - keep it up! Hopefully weather next week won't be too bad.

My training must be based on work, time spent with the little one, and other household chores. So I enjoy any run 😁 so I managed 2 runs this week. Beautiful video! Congratulations on your workouts!

Best of luck with the coming week mate. Enjoyed the vid!

Nice running Dan...and the days are getting longer so head torches will be a distant memory soon 🤞
👍👏👏

Just found your channel and enjoying the NDW50 training as I’m training for the same race too! Keep up the good work

Nice week Dan. I’m exactly the same with my pack. It feels like I’m giving someone a piggy back and it’s definitely noticeable. The worst is on race day with all that extra kit on top of the usual. It feels like my body weight has doubled!!

Sheep, an emu and lamas but no cows! Where have all the cows gone?
I didn't see any this week either. Well done on your week of training especially the 30k long run, that's great distance into the legs.

strong week, especially the long run 💪🏻 I also don't enjoy my vest that much anymore. Used to love it when i got it but now it somehow annoys me. Guess I got soft 😅
