Barbells To Bergs

Welcome to Barbells to Bergs 💪🏔️

From deadlifts to downhills, follow one gym bro’s wildly unqualified attempt to conquer the Comrades Marathon.

🎯 Mission: Survive 90km of suffering in 2026.
🥇 Current target: Two Oceans Ultra — FIRST ULTRA.
🏃‍♂️ Fitness level: Sore calves, mid-tier cardio, turning 30 — send help.

Here you’ll find:
– Weekly-ish progress videos (let’s be real, life happens and uploads might not)
– Honest running recaps
– Trail adventures, hybrid training chaos, and GoPro footage shakier than my RDL form in 2013
– More memes than medals (for now)

🎥 First upload: “How NOT to Pace a Parkrun (But Still PB Somehow) 🫠”

Because if I can do this… literally anyone can.
