- Running your first 100 miler can be extremely daunting, I know I was pretty terrified the first time I took on the distance. So when good friend John James decided to enter the Autumn 100, I offered my services when it comes to pacing him over the last 25 miles. Having taken on the race myself 6 years ago, I realised that having a pacer with you out on the last loop can be really beneficial. We grabbed the cameras and headed off up to Goring-on-Thames for a 9am start time on Saturday the 15th October to follow John on his epic adventure.
Thanks for watching, we'll see you in the next video and as always - stay safe and keep on running!

Massive thanks again to Loyd and Liga, long may your videos continue to inspire others on their running journeys and challenges. My face coming down those stairs at the last checkpoint made me laugh, I was so sore by that point I think I was beyond caring !! Great event by centurion running in such beautiful surroundings!
I love how loyd was trying to entice you down them like there was ice cream at the bottom or something 😄
@@robspence4283 haha , i'll pace you next year mate!
I'll hold you to that mate! You'd better have a cornetto at thw bottom of the stairs though... 🍦
No problem mate, it was great to be involved in your epic journey! I hope I wasn't to annoying on that last 25 miles 😉
On to the next challenge mate 🏃♂️
That halfway point, I felt John's sadness and fatigue, come on John you can do it! Loved this video. Proud finish for John, I'm so glad he did it!! My friends said they would never do one again and within the month signed up for the Thames 100 the following year because they wanted a sub 24.
Step counting is a great way to keep going, for the last segment my friend would run for 5 minutes, walk for 5 minutes. They just managed to go sub 24 the second time rounf so signed up to the next big thing..
I hope I can do one of these one day, farthest I've gone is a half marathon and I've just signed up to The PIGUM 2023 because my friends running partner dropped out. Plenty of training to go.
"Why aren't you running?" Absolutely killed me 😂
Congrats to John on an incredible achievement. Great job as always, Loyd 👍
You've got to live kids Gavin! 😂
Really glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙏😊
Fair play John, it looked like you had to dig deep 👏 💪
He definitely dug deep to get back to that finish line! 🏃♂️💪
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏
John has the heart of a lion and your motivation and support was awesome!!!
Well done John, that was an awesome achievement and very inspiring. I’ve been looking at a 100 miler for 2024 and this is the one I’m going to do. To come into my home town Reading in the last leg will be great. Well done again and to Lloyd for making the video. Great channel.
Thanks Steve, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. The Autumn 100 is a perfect first 100 miler. Obviously Reading is the turning point on the last leg so you'd have to leave your home town again to get to the finish 😉
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏
Great job John!! Some things you earn can never be taken away, surely this is one! Nice job filming Lloyd. Some of the commentary was quite funny.
The boy did good Jeff! He definitely dug in deep and earnt his finishers buckle. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated mate 🙏😊
Poor John. 😂 Lloyd full of pep and enthusiasm and he looked like he hated every second of it😂 got it done though 💪
Brilliant film and well done John!....felt every step and loved the `tough love` and chuckles lol. Hope to do my first 100 next year.....keep up the good work 👍👍
Thanks Ian, I'm glad you enjoyed the video. A bit of tough love goes a long way when you're running these kinds of distances 😊
Best of luck with your first 100 miler and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Was great to meet you, Liga and John at the Start Lloyd. My day didn't go as planned due to injury but when you see yourself in a R4A video you know you've made it ha ha ha
Great to meet you to at the start. Really sorry to hear your race didn't go to plan and I hope the injury isn't to bad! Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏😊
Recover well!
Very humbling to watch the effort needed to complete these awesome events ....well done John
Thanks for your words of encouragement at mile 98, it was my first 100 miler as well :)
Well done Iain 🎉🎉
The first one is always very special. Hope you're recovering well and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Well done John!!!!!!!!!!!!!
amazing well done John, found myself cheering him on out loud to the laptop even though by the time I watched this he`d probably already be back in Kernow.
Thanks for the support Alan, it's really appreciated 🙏😊
Thanks for the brilliant running Chanel :) :)
Great film Lloyd, I was pacing my mate Neil on the last leg too 👌
Well done to John on his 💯
Cheers Kieran, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 🙏😊
Well done John, amazing performance. Another inspiring video from Run4adventure, thank you guys. Loyd you should be a professional pacer!!
Thanks Kim, that's very kind and I'm glad you enjoyed the video 👍
I'm available for hire if the price is right 😉
Thanks for watching 🙏
Brutal, hope he's proud , well done
Thanks very much and thanks for watching the channel 🙏😊
Great video, and well done John - It brought back great memories. It was my first 100 mile event too, and I was aiming to keep at least an hour ahead of cut off. I managed to finish in 26.09, despite spending the last 25-30 miles with blisters on the balls of both feet - I had to dig in to finish. I agree about the 3rd leg - That was the toughest section for me. An amazing event, and definitely not my last 100 miler. Lakeland 100 is my eventual goal, and maybe the Arc in future.
Thanks Mark, really glad you enjoyed the video and well done on your first 100 🏃♂️💪
The 3rd section is definitely the toughest, it's always hard at that point in a 100 miler! Hope the blisters have settled down and best of luck with your future races 🙏
Absolute legends. I’ve learnt a lot watching this and will put it to good use on my up and coming 45miler. 👍
That's great Karl, best of luck with your race! Let us know how you get on, run strong 🏃♂️💪
Thanks for watching 🙏
Haha! Surprise appearance from dad! 🤣 brilliant vid as always 👌🏽👌🏽
He had to make the video Katie! Glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching and supporting the channel 🙏😊
Love the video mate, describes the A100 and the highs and lows of running it perfectly. Congrats to John on getting that done. Nice chatting to you on the trail (when I was still looking fresh - can’t say it was quite the same on leg 4!). Hope to see you at a future event soon 👍
Really glad you enjoyed the video Jamie and it was nice to meet you out on the course 👍
Looks like you had a good run and you smashed 24hrs! Well done and thanks for watching 🙏😊
Well done John and Loyd for pacing. Have to say, if I had a mate come up all the way from Cornwall to help me race, I might actually crack a smile now and then. 😂
I was smiling on the inside 😆
@@johnjames9602 yeah just joking John, I know the feeling well. I'm in for Arc but I'm not convinced I'm ready really, so likely to defer. I'm deciding on the weekend.
@@ianl4518 I was thinking the same about the arc, but if you wait for the stars to align you might miss your best opportunity, so i'm just going to go and do my best on the day!
Cheers Ian 👍
I totally agree mate, he was a miserable bugger wasn't he 😂
Only joking John, he definitely had to dig deep to get to that finish line and it was great to see 🏃♂️💪
Thanks for watching!
@@johnjames9602 Good plan mate. I am yet to crack 100 miles and DNF'd the recent 110km North Coast race. I've done a 35km run today on The Mendips and have pretty well decided I'm deferring. Just have to be honest and I'm just not fast enough over that type of path. I'll be ready for 2024👍
congrats to John! always great to have someone waiting for you at the aid stations and also pacing part of the race with you, well done Loyd (:
Cheers Naim 👍
The boy did good and got it done! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel, as always its appreciated mate 🙏😊
Awesome Video Loyd. It was great to meet you at the event and I really enjoyed watching the film mate. Thanks for the content, keep putting it out for us.
Fantastic effort John! 👏 Hope the recovery is going well and that you’re now looking forward to your next big challenge! Great video Lloyd, loved your positivity and support for John. ⭐️
It is most inspirational, bros ^^ GREAT WORK!!! and what a wonderful video. keep it up n keep running, love from Singapore.
Thanks Patrick, that's really appreciated 😊

Thanks very much! Really glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 🙏😊
Great video and congrats John. The Loyd Tough Love was pretty funny , you should hire yourself out as a professional pacer Loyd
Great tip about counting the steps. I do this when going up the hills
"Why aren't you running?" 🤣🤣🤣
You've got to live kids! 😂
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 😊

What a great video mate, many congratualtions to John. Now I know how I will feel in May next year when I take on my first 100 miler. 😂
Thanks Rob, really glad you enjoyed the video 👍
The video definitely gives you an insight into what it takes to finish your first 100 miler! 💪
I have every confidence in you mate, best of luck with your training and thanks for watching 🙏😊
Really enjoyed this. I've got my first 100 next year (and with a new baby due in Feb) nervous and excited already. Congrats to John, a great effort.
Great video Loyd, all those emotions and huge congratulations to John, "Bimble for the camera" classic inspirational pacing lol!!!
it's amazing to relive that experience through your lens Loyd, thank you very much 💯
well done John, awesome running! 💪🏼
hope to see you guys at the Arc next year🏃
Bit late to watching this but well done John! Awesome and inspirational!
"You don't wanna disapoint Angelina Jolie", best motivation ever :-) Well done John!
Amazing achievement
Cheers Peter 🙏
Another great viewing pleasure, thanks Loyd and well done John! You must be the most fashionable runner out there, Loyd. Do you ever sell or auction surplus kit or gear after you have tested them?
Awesome effort John… I’m hoping to run my first 100k through Goring… Run to the stones in April 2023
Good luck with your 100k Nic and thanks for watching the channel, its really appreciated 🙏😊
100miles finish is always emotional 👏
I experienced to be proud like a god or to be really angry after all the suffering
You are so right Tomas, they're always very emotional! 😊
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏😊
I had to rewind a few times to hear you say what the loop was, you're all incredible but the people running that 3 hour split are something else!!
The guys at the front are pretty speedy Adam! 🔥
Thanks for watching 🙏
Great video Loyd! You’ve captured the emotion so well. 🤟
loved having you guys there!! :)
Thanks Tony, glad you enjoyed the video. Lovely to meet you and your family over the weekend and thanks so much for your amazing hospitality 🙏😊
Well done! I was volunteering at the Pangbourne aid station when you came in. Sorry about the steps haha. Assuming he didnt fancy them?
Congratulations John, amazing effort, rather you than me👍😂😂
Well done John! 👏
Brilliant!
Cheers Paul, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 🙏😊
Vidéo idea - love to have a video on how to prep and what to take and how to pace well
You should get a buckle soon for your pacing duties up there!
Shame they changed the pacer from last 50 to only 25.
Not fancy going off on a bonus loop too this time?
Nice one John and quote of the vid has to be "I've got nothing" 👍
I think that was my favourite bit of the video as well Sean 😂
Thanks for watching and supporting the channel mate 🙏
Amazing effort John. 100 miles is a mighty achievement 🏅
Great support Loyd☝️what was John and your choice of trainer for that terrain?👍
altra olympus 5 for my pasty-shaped feet!! lol
Cheers Tony, glad you enjoyed the video and thanks for watching 🙏
Great video thanks
Glad you enjoyed the video Emanuele 👍
Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment it's appreciated 🙏
Wow a wonderful watch, not sure my idea for a video ( Can Loyd get 65 y end of April …Alan to stay under 30 min for Heartlands Parkrun in pair of super duper running shoes 9. 5 size will be fine
Lap 3 is what you sign up for 🫡
Too right Danny 👍
