"There's nowhere else I'd rather be, you felt so alive, all your senses where at full bore, and I've been hooked on ultras since then."
Paul Youd - "It's Possible" which you can all watch on www.Youtube.com/@KelpandFern
Making his way to 100 ultras before he is 100 years old #ultramarathon
Running is slow! Sliding on your bum is a real mountain running skill.
Who here has done it!?
Taken from The Dragons Back film I made which can be watched right now on www.Youtube.com/@KelpandFern

This one is a bit different for Kelp and Fern, it's considerably shorter than most films I put out but hopefully highlights Sannas brilliant adventure in South West Wales last summer
Releasing on Youtube.com/@KelpandFern very soon #trailrunning
Photo taken around 4.30am during the 100km Climb South West Two Moors Way ultra-marathon a couple of years ago.
A nice reminder that no matter how long and dark a moment in time may be, there will be relief, warmth and meaning beyond.

I watch the mesmerising plod of feet, left, right, left right.
I ask the question: "these feet are aiming to move for hours, a full day, potentially multiple days"
It becomes how one expresses themselve's through a landscape. I am in awe of its simplicity and power.

Rain and snow drifts over the oceans, lit up by a setting sun.
Outsides pretty neat isn't it.

A vanishing mountain range that sits between oceans as the first snow of winter falls.
Taken whilst on a mountain run in Lofoton, Norway a couple of years ago.
Some of the best running i've ever done.

MY WAY - Premiering Friday www.Youtube.com/@KelpandFern
I noticed a trend 10+ years ago that trail running media was taking steps away from the natural world, disconnecting us from the trail and forgetting that our sport and hobby is based on nature.
So to get this review means the world!
Final editing shot of MY WAY featuring Sanna Duthie as she takes on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path with the aim of getting a new fastest known time. Premieres at Theatre Gwaun in Fishguard on Friday then www.youtube.com/@kelpandfern in early December #trailrunning #ultrarunning #fastestknowntime
Here are @sportsmassageceredigion supporting @marathonmenna during her Wales Coast Path FKT attempt.
She is being looked after here by two awesome humans who make ultra marathons and the even longer stuff possible.
#trailrunning #ultramarathon #walescoastpath #fastestknowntime #fkt
It's 2am.
This is what support looks like, Sannas partner was the main support throughout the night on the first attempt and her father supported throughout the night on the second attempt.
#support #trailrunning #ultramarathon #fkt
Really looking forward to getting this one out, Sanna Duthies FKT attempt of the Pembrokeshire Coast Path.

THE LAP
Documentary featuring Lee May and Tom Reeves premieres tonight at 8pm on Youtube.com/@KelpandFern
During Sanna Duthie’s 186-mile record attempt, I caught this moment between her and her dad at a checkpoint at around 2am.
It’s the kind of scene that shows exactly how athletes like Sanna make the impossible possible.
Behind every runner is a circle of people who truly believe in their dream.
Today Sanna made history, she put it all out there and the Pembrokeshire Coast Path has a new record.
Now the work begins on a full-length ultra-marathon documentary of Sanna and this record which will be released later in the year. #trailrunning #ultramarathon #fkt

Post race interview with Paul Youd done and everything in place now to work on his short-film about his 50k ultra-marathon around Bath and why he is an ambassador for Running on Plants.
Really looking forward to working on this one and sharing his story with you all in the coming months.
It's hard to beat trail running, a few moments to yourself, time slows down and you get magic nature experiences like this.
It's shot like these I am always trying to pursue to show the real side of trail running, a slow plod through a landscape.
