Fantastic running from my PT & massage client, Katy, last weekend as she completed the speech “Bob Graham round“ 🏃🏻♀️👀
No I must admit, until I met Katy, I had no idea what this event was either… 🤷
This is one of those “unofficial” events that is self supported/navigated/fuelled etc and is done whenever you want to do it (think; 3-peaks challenge, but much much harder!) 🧭
66 continuous miles of fell running in the Lake District, hitting 42 of the peaks, with a total ascent of over 27,000 feet…! ⛰️🏞️
To complete the event through night & day really is an incredible feat 🤯
Even more so when you consider that from a relatively early point, she was struggling to keep food down (not what you want for a huge endurance event!), as well as buggering her knee up which required support-strapping at her next checkpoint.🤮🤕😵💫
A number of support runners joined in for sections of the course to help keep her spirits up, but no one did anywhere near the distance that Katy accomplished 🏆
She may be quiet & unassuming on the outside, but underneath that calm exterior, she really is hard as nails!! ⚒️
Fantastic job Katy! Really well done 🥳👏🏼👏🏼
