In 2021, in his first 100-mile race, Adrian Macdonald won the Leadville 100. Known as one of America's most gruelling races, "The Race Across The Sky" takes athletes through the heart of the Rocky Mountains. Runners climb and descend 15,600 feet (4,800 m), with elevations ranging between 9,200-12,620 feet.
In 2021, Adrian clocked a time of 16:18:19 - the sixth-fastest in the race's 40-year history. In 2022 he was back to chase more glory and take a shot at the course record.

Imagine winning the Leadville 100 and thinking “I wonder if I belong” goes to show that no matter where we are on our own journey, our peers have the same self doubt and we can all overcome and continue to become better athletes and people. ❤️

@On-Running Год назад

👏 absolutely!

@fabianthinks Год назад

love to see ON getting into these pieces of content, centered around races/stories. I don't think I'm alone in the constant search for compelling stories around these ultra/endurance races!

@On-Running Год назад

We're glad that you're enjoying it, Fabian. Stay tuned for more! 🙌

@@On-Running Yeah, they don't make the documentary explicitly about the shoe, but of course it's still there. This is a tasteful and rich way to do it. Perhaps it shows what kind of company it is.

You 100% belong in this space! Your humility and confidence are inspiring. I look forward to following your 2023 race season.

@jamesvance89 Год назад

This is such a good story. I have run with Adrian and Nick many times back when I lived in Fort Collins. So great to see Adrian succeed at this level. So happy for you dude!!!

@jakejose2442 Год назад

This is such insanely good camera work!! So fun to watch!!!

@SeeChadRun Год назад

What a great story! I met Adrian briefly while on a local trail run the week before LV100. Great guy! Happy to see that he did so well at the race this year (again).

Fantastic!! Truly love this race. Congratulations.

@brendanarmesy9865 Год назад

Awesome video! Wild to see how fast you are. Your float pace is faster than I can hope to run

@cameronmathews1965 Год назад

Amazing! Can't wait to watch Adrian continue to push limits. Great film.

@pathalderman7051 Год назад

Wow! This was amazing! Love it.

@VirtualTrailRunning Год назад

I just enjoyed watching him running in shorts and under green trees… already ready for winter to say adios!

@On-Running Год назад

Winter is fun and all, but we can't wait either for those Spring runs right around the corner! 🌤️

We are excited as you are, Adam! 👀

@afewmominutes Год назад

Wow, great film, well done! I remember when there was no lottery for Leadville, just sign up and you're in. Not so easy to get into anymore... Awesome film

@On-Running Год назад

Times are changing for sure, but hopefully this means the amazing ultra community is continuing to grow each year! Cheers to the miles ahead. 💪

Let's Go Adrian!

@Lalo_Runs Год назад

Just bought the CloudMonsters and now this comes up in my feed 😅 Did 20 miles in them straight out the box and they worked wonderfully ♥️

@runningwithsimon Год назад

What an amazing movie and amazing performance! It was impressive crossing Adrian going full blast down from Hope Pass!

@On-Running Год назад

We're super stoked you're as amazed about it as we are! 🔥

@dweyhrauch09 Год назад

Loved the video. Didn't realize the elites had pacers carry their pack though...

Awesome effort wow

Godspeed Adrian. I was not drawn in the lottery this year but maybe sometime soon my number will be called.

Awesome performance and video! I hope to see you on course blowing by me 😂

@teunlauwerier 11 месяцев назад

wonderfully shot video, he's so calm and dte. a new example for me personally. what is the watch he runs with?

@etapepartners Год назад

is Leadville the only major Ultra in the USA that allows pacers to act as burrows ?

@ElonMuff 2 месяца назад

The dude. 3peat time baby.

@lucaswiman8945 Год назад

Can pacers carry equipment for the runners? I didn’t realize that was a thing

@alextprice Год назад

At leadville pacers are allowed to mule or “burro” for their runners.

@lucaswiman8945 Год назад

@@alextprice thanks for the info! That makes sense.

@WLV93 Год назад

3:22 kinda mad disrespectful lol

@over1498 Год назад

What On Shoes did he race in? Sheesh I’m looking all over the internet for the Leadville winning shoes, there’s a whole dang documentary on it, and I still can’t find it.

@ThePwhite96 Год назад

But can he do it on a rainy night in Stoke?

@Drew-lu4vn Год назад

anyone know the shoe style/name @ 5:02?

@On-Running Год назад

This is the Cloudboom Echo! 😊

@Zach-ls1if Год назад

That’s pretty douchey and pretentious to say 100 miles is the only relevant distance in the sport. There’s different strokes for different folks, there are shorter races with more extreme terrain that he wouldn’t be able to compete against the the top people in that style, his chicken legs wouldn’t hold up. Cheers

@amblincork Год назад

yes - well said - I am surprised at Kupricka's arrogance

@amblincork Год назад

P.s Kupricka's time at UTMB was 45th in 2014....47th or 42nd of males - not exactly a stellar performance

@Zach-ls1if Год назад

@@amblincork It’s fine, to each their own. A performance is a performance, It’s just so off putting when people act exclusive, and define things as relevant or not. A 5k trail run us very relevant to many people.

@amblincork Год назад

@@Zach-ls1if Yes = I have had to go back to doing short road races such as 5 kms because I had lost so much by focussing on long distance - and my ' longest distance' is only 60 km so hardaly ranks at all as an ' ultra' now ! Though my ecuse for not doing 100 milers is I am 66 in two weeks ! LOL ! Trying to run 5 kms as fast as one can is really hard !
