The Like Award

An absolute pleasure to have on the race. Barely knew he was there throughout, just quietly and without fuss got the job done.

A very quiet man who hid a steely determination beneath. No bother throughout - just simply did it.

An outstanding performance for such a young man, to come out and take on a serious challenge like the 6633, with very little prior experience and to execute so wonderfully the win that he wanted, its one of the best (if not the best) performance I have seen. I doff my cap in this man's general direction!

Pulling the heaviest sled by quite some margin in the whole history of the 6633, yet never once moaning or complaining in fact quite the contrary, was always smiling and happy whilst suffering immeasurably. Another absolute pleasure to have on the race and a heroic performance.

A cracking team that was forged on trail, each pushing each other throughout. Great to watch their epic down moments and to witness their highlight of crossing the line together, in time to see Wales off in the 6 nations.

If ever there was a person who replicates the outsiders perceived image of the race, then Tony is this man. Having the wrong clothing systems, to being on the Sat Phone to work throughout, to failing to press the Help button, to going from last to 2nd in the last 40 miles - this is our man!!

A ballsy athlete if ever there was one. A type 1 diabetic who defies what limits are achievable. Came back after his DNF in 2016 to "finish unfinished business" and did it with aplomb. Its this type of performance that impresses us so much.

A returning athlete who was an absolute delight to have on the race. Always smiling although was suffering big time underneath. Came in 2nd, but simply the finish was his ambition. Another wonderful performance from a great friend of the 6633.

Like many names before on this list, impressed us by her no fuss, no drama attitude, just simply smashed it, plain and simple.

For sheer determination and breaking the 120 mile record, it's hard to see beyond Kev's performance. He basically went balls out for the finish line from 40+ miles out, and set a record that I think is going to be hard to beat.

If you cut Tony in half, he would have 6633 running right through the middle. A massive massive challenge for this big man from Wales, but he soaked up all he could pre race. He then executed his race to neigh on perfection, and whilst he didn't finish, he did go the 2nd furthest distance.

What an athlete and what a wonderful person through and through. He is the only person to ever compete in the 6633 without any support from the organisers at any point - completely self sufficient. And he is he only athlete who I believe would have challenged Mini's record had he not decided to wait for multiple hours for his mate. Another absolute gent.

Probably the most laid back competitor to ever grace the start line of the 6633, but this hid a very steely determination to win. An absolute gent in every way and even went on to medic the 3550 after his race.

Another example of simply getting on with it. Was in complete control of her race from beginning to end... and for her it finished her Grand Span of 4 winter races that season.

In what was probably the toughest conditions the 6633 has experienced, he very simple got on with the job in hand - no drama.
