    Never Giving Up - Jamies Adventure to honour Bravery and Courage. Another Bonus Episode; Jamie and I are members of the Tullio Cycling Business Community and lead local rides as Ride Captains in the Chilterns and New Forest respectively. After listening to the Mind Over Mountains episode and the discussion on Mental preparation, he reached out to talk about his current cycling challenge and the preparation it entails. We talk about the death of his mother and father to cancer, his father very recently and how that has driven the nature of this challenge. We touch on the topics of grief and loss, and so if this effects you, the cancer research website has some great resources to assist.

    Ep 4 Cat Magill - Active mental preparation for long distance events

    Episode 4: Cat Magill - Learning along the way, one Ultra race at a time. Cat Magill https://www.instagram.com/catrmag/ and I had a shared experience in scratching at CP2 on the 2024 edition of the Atlas Mountain Race. As she lay recovering from sickness that caused her to scratch she was already planning on how to return to ultra riding and what she needed to do next. She then rode the Highlands Trail again and Silk Road Mountain Race twice. Her interview as part of the series of interviews I did for the Mind Over Mountains video and episode was the catalyst for starting this podcast series. She made a concerted effort to seek out techniques to help her mentally prepare for bikepacking and ultra races. I wanted to put out the full interview so here it is in full. Enjoy.

    Episode 1 Mind Over Mountains

    Episode 1: Mind Over Mountains: Conquering the Mental Barriers of Ultracycling events such as Alps Divide, Atlas Mountain Race, Dales Divide, Highland Trail 550, Hellenic Mountain Race or the infamous Silk Road Mountain Race.In preparing, the core challenge isn't just physical endurance but the mental fortitude required to navigate relentless ascents and unpredictable weather. In this video I explore how ultra-endurance athletes cultivate resilience, manage self-doubt, and push through the psychological walls that truly define success on such epic routes.This episode offers a deeper dive into the less-explored mental aspect of these events, providing valuable insights beyond just the physical grind.With special thanks to those who participated and gave their insights and tips.

  7. Welcome to the new Refuel & Reboot Podcast

    JAN 27

    Welcome to the new Refuel & Reboot Podcast

    I’m Mark Gilmour, the new host of this new podcast, Refuel and Reboot, a podcast that tries to cover subjects across technology and bikepacking, two aspects of my life. I’ve spent my working career in technology, principally in telecoms and I am also an avid cyclist, riding road, gravel and mountain bikes. In the last few years I have got involved in long distance bikepacking and ultra cycling events. So this podcast will be a mix of bike related and technology related topics and every so often an episode might include both. So this is a quick introduction to the podcast, the first full episode will be released Thursday 29th January and features a series of interviews on mental preparation for ultracycling events. Please subscribe and join me and my guests for these upcoming episodes. Speak soon. Mark This is a public episode.
