50 Miles in a Monster Storm: Battling UK’s Fiercest Winds for 12 Hours

When relentless gale-force winds and sideways rain meet the UK Ultra Winter 55 (shortened to 50 miles due to the storm), every step becomes a fight for survival. In the wake of Storm Darragh—the wildest weather since Storm Eunice—this race pushed me and every participant to our absolute limits. Follow me across the iconic Seven Sisters Cliffs, through muddy fields, and up onto the brutal ridgelines of the South Downs Way as we endure punishing headwinds, lashing rain, and unforgiving terrain. Along the way, I’ll share the strategies, gear, and mental resilience it took to keep moving forward when quitting seemed like the easier option.

If you’re drawn to the raw, unfiltered reality of ultra running—where finish lines aren’t guaranteed and comfort zones vanish—this is the video you’ve been waiting for. Join me for an unforgettable adventure that proves sometimes the toughest conditions yield the greatest rewards.
