FOCUS ON THE TRAIL - A Beginners Guide to Trail Running Photography

COMING SOON at www.kelpandfern.com

This is the culmination of 20 years as a photographer and 2.5 years to put the book together and I could not be more thrilled to share this news with everyone.

If you take photos when out trail running and want to improve your skills and take better photos, this book is for you!

I will be putting the pre-order live in the coming weeks, but for now you can subscribe to the newsletter at www.kelpandfern.com to get the release date sent straight to your inbox.

The idea for this book came from my own journey. Bringing a camera with me on most of my runs has not only improved my photography but has also deepened my overall enjoyment of trail running. It’s helped me slow down and truly appreciate the natural world, and that has become the driving force behind writing this book, to focus on the trail.

As you bring your camera onto the trail, you’ll start noticing more, the flowers lining the path, the insects moving beneath your feet, the intricate details of nature that make up the world around you. This awareness makes every run richer and more meaningful.

That’s why I’ve written this book, to inspire you to take a step back, focus on the trail for what it is, and emerge with both improved photography skills and a greater appreciation for the environment. Together, we’ll capture the magic of the trails and the wonders they have to offer.

A good overview if you’re new to ultrarunning (or need a refresher).

❝To create your #ultramarathon training plan, here are the three questions you should ask:
1. What are the demands of the event?
2. What is your current state of fitness?
3. What assets do you have to work with?

Carmichael Training Systems · Create Your Ultramarathon Training Plan With Three Simple Questions  - CTSDesigning your long-range plan for ultramarathon training can start by asking three simple questions. Learn how, from Coach Ryne Anderson.

Massive dinner last night then 11 hours solid sleep. Breakfast, then to a cafe for second breakfast and straight out for a short walk and “early lunch” before imminent main lunch. Planning an ice cream this afternoon and then the pub for early dinner. Had a mooch around Robin Hoods Bay and the beach then nearly fell asleep just stood in a bookshop. Afternoon nap required😆#runger #ultramarathon

More details to follow after a bath, a sleep and catching up with my family but I successfully finished #NorthernTraverse a short time ago with a group of friends. I could have probably shaved a little time if I had run today instead of sticking with the group, but we also only got there by working with each other so a group finish was perfect👌🏻 #ultramarathon #trailrunning

Back on the trail for another freezing night at 01:45 out of Richmond after my first sleep since Friday night. Just hiking it in now for the last 60 miles. Planning food and a couple of hours rest at the last overnight support point before hiking on towards the coast. In good shape and plenty of time to beat the cutoff tomorrow🤞🏻#ultramarathon #NorthernTraverse

Yesterday was brutal. Bitterly cold start before dawn and straight into a big climb with an exposed summit and a sketchy descent with lots of slipping on the frost. Today….starts before dawn with a big climb🤦🏻 Super tired but basically in reasonable shape otherwise. Not too much running happening though. This is a grind. #NorthernTraverse #ultramarathon #trailrunning

Tracking link for the Northern Traverse is now open. Race starts 08:30 Saturday UK time. I’m bib number 73. Watch out for Damian Hall (bib 76) who is aiming to break the course record. Conditions look great but cold at nights. Excited and nervous in equal parts. Nowhere to hide now so I just need to deliver a finish, probably some time next Wednesday. #ultrarunning #ultramarathon #running #NorthernTraverse live.opentracking.co.uk/northe

Easy paced 5 miles last night, and another 3.5 this morning after dropping the car off at the garage. Now just a few very short and easy jogs to go before heading up north on Friday to start the #NorthernTraverse on Saturday morning. Feeling mostly fit and well prepared, as far as you can be for 190 miles #running #trailrunning #ultramarathon I think the race will be live tracked on opentracking.co.uk but that’s tbc.

Sanna Duthie @sannad22run will be attempting to break her own record of 2d 3h and 30mins on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path at the end of April.

Covering 186 miles (300km) and running along the South West coat of Wales on the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and we will have the honour of documenting her journey to release a full-length doc later in the year.

We met up for a trail run on the coast path to get a few pics, learn more about her attempt and we're excited to be a small part of her adventure later next month!

She is raising awareness and funds for the @pembrokeshirecoasttrust who are a conservation charity based here in the National Park.
