animal activity that we need to be aware of oh here we go just look at that just look at it can't wait to get all up in there tomorrow oh it's climbing [Music] hey ivan and his cup of coffee just making it look like all i could go higher but i don't have the right shoes on for this today look at that [Music] just waiting for the word to get going 20 minutes to start good luck here it comes let's go deer go deer go foxy go [Music] off they go [Music] [Applause] hello how are you doing the breeze is nice when you move a bit down yes and it's not that muddy yet the restrictions that yeah this is all all my eggs are in this one basket that's a good basket i think it's enough how about you jeffree's marathon some waterfall at the top of four lots of climbing already fell once ah oh well kilometers to go [Applause] i'm good so here's the end of leg four and i'm heading up there next [Music] here comes foxy woof go mom [Music] [Music] one hour it's very hot it's too very easy [Applause] wow right climbing climbing i don't know probably halfway through lake five 25 km of 80. feeling okay feeling the effects of the heat we'll be in the forest found some mud being a little princess and staying on the edge for now so these are the ditches i dread every single year because usually it is so muddy you can't get up or down and then you hit the bottom and it's like a river as you can see dry so i should be going through here twice like five and like six oh my god that smells so good and then straight up almost at the end of this stage close then i hit the stage with this straight up straight down and nightfall stay alive how is that for crazy right at the end of a leg race directors are hilarious hilarious that thing is hard to climb this is the ditch i'm probably gonna go sit in the water like that guy anyway carry on i'm three kilometers from the end of this stage well here we are heading up leg six this is the leg with the crazy climb on it up to 2 400 meters and then straight back down i am hoping i'm gonna be able to get all the way up there and at least off that sketchy part before it's dark i'm doing good i think it's about i don't know five or six pm lost track of time i just know i've been at this for just over seven hours just stopped in the transition area met up with ivan and robin chomped down a sandwich and filled up my pack redid my feet taping because a bunch had come off from the water crossings feeling good my legs are tired but that's okay just passed halfway in this 80k 50 mile run using the the term run quite loosely there's some running but it's a lot of hiking so i'll bring you back here when we get up to the top be sunset so it is going to be beautiful you can see what is to come i won't be able to run the video for long because i'll fall and kill myself but some of the drainages i was talking about still climbing i'm in the pretty much straight up part of lake fix so okay i gotta shimmy up the side there so bring it back in a bit almost there we're gonna go up and around to the back side of that and then down so i've got about 20k left of like six the decline is almost almost done one big push to the top almost at the top see that person way up there top of the trees that's where i'm going and up and over the ridge almost we are at the top just about to drop back down my legs are tired so here i am the back part of leg six pretty sure this is where lake five and six join up so i'm gonna be redoing part of lake five i have one checkpoint left to go it's about i don't know six kilometers away and then eight kilometers to the final transition on to my very last leg the hardest part is now over i've got about 60 kilometers on my legs at this point go grandma so i'll catch you here again in a bit well it is almost dark so i'm not too sure how much more video i'm going to add on to this tonight closing in on the end of leg six as i mentioned and then once i hit like seven it will be dark dark dark but it's ten kilometers with one really ugly climb of course right at the beginning and then down some prairie trails gravel gravel roads through some pastures and then onto the streets in blairmore and into the finish or coleman i don't know what little town it is coleman probably my god i'm tired i have been moving now for just about 12 hours i have a few more to go yet probably three well we are off to go and get mom through the leg six checkpoint and then she'll be on to leg seven and only have ten kilometers left to go until the finish we will update you when we get there
