With the race being my focus this year I thought it would be good to capture some of the build-up in the form of moving pictures on the old YouTuber.

Let me know what you think – this is episode 10, the support crew were arriving in California and the race was only days away. More on my YouTube channel. Please subscribe there if you fancy seeing some more as race day gets closer.

Join me as I meet the locals, discover unmarked trails, run some mountains, rest, recover and train again.
