We're now on Stage 2 of the Namib Desert Race, part of the Racing the Planet 4 Desert Series. We're running 250 km over 7 days across the desert in Namibia, while carrying all of our own food, sleeping equipment, and supplies for the week on our backs.

I don't know why I teared up watching them dance around the fire... Jeff, you've captured the essence of the run, the location, the people so beautifully. Thank you for putting in this amount of effort. I love your videos. More power to you!

@simopata1456 2 года назад

I’m watching this and daydreaming at the same time. I started to run recently during the lockdown, I love it but my body is in shock. Everything hurts still … Will I ever be able to build up such distances?! I don’t know yet, but the emotions I feel when I see these inspiring people and the sceneries are very strong and I couldn’t be more grateful for the videos !

@JeffPelletier 2 года назад

It will take time, but gradually you’ll continue to build your fitness and confidence. As Mabasa said in Episode 3, we build by laying a brick each day. The key is to take your time to avoid injury and enjoy the journey!

@XEinstein 2 года назад

@@JeffPelletier I second that. Really take your time building up distance. Even for sportive people that aren't runners it will take weeks for muscles, bones and tendons to get used enough to running before doing a half hour / 5 km run. Your first 10km should take about 16 to 20 weeks before you endeavour on that distance. So take it slow and the distance will come.

@vitornoleto3699 2 года назад

Of course you can, but make sure your tendons, muscles, ligaments and joints are ok and strong (I highly recomended you do strength training too)... Because you will progress with the time, but if you try rush the things, you will get fatigue and do some injuries, wich forces you to regress or even stop running for a while, and this is worst than progress slowly.. Therefore, listen always your body, the pain and the fatigue, the "no pain, no gain" mindset can be destructive in the most of times...

Thanks so much Jeff, as someone who lost my father to cancer i can understand the fight Dr. Rob is giving to this disease , my best wishes and prayers for him to continue doing what he loves for many many more years. Great stuff as always on these documentaries, the standard you set is really very high

everyone in this race is inspirational. to be honest everyone in life have some problem but what matters is how u overcome those. 👍🙏. AWESOME. SUBSCRIBED.

@cpruns4501 Год назад

Very cool episode and that landscape is so amazing. I paused it at 5:24 and I could hang that on my wall. The Dr's story was incredible also. To come through all that and then be racing a stage race in the dessert.....WOW Great episode as always.

@1519Spring 2 года назад

Great series and episode. I was a bit troubled to see such a large pile of wood being burned for simple visual effect, but then you included footage of Francois Snyders, the local organizer, explaining the significance and use of fire.

@JeffPelletier 2 года назад

Thanks! Yea, it seemed to be something that was done fairly regularly. He talked about how they’d spent the day collecting fire wood as they would have done had they been at home. It’s just a normal part of their life.

@1519Spring 2 года назад

In a desert, wood is rare and precious.

@alesiabock9305 2 года назад

I’m SO impressed and moved by this episode- not only the story of the doctor who came back from a health issue to run desert races at 60, but also the incredible topography of Namibia, and the spirit and culture of the local people there. Truly one planet 💝🌍

@PZJBimha 9 месяцев назад

This episode had me tearing up. Dr Rob's story is so touching. I hope he is still alive and strong.

@JeffPelletier 9 месяцев назад

He sure is! You’ll meet him again late in my other series, Racing Georgia, filmed the following year.

@oliverdeubel7488 2 года назад

It doesn’t hurt to wait a few days. Even with all the subscription channels (Netflix, Hulu, …) you have to wait a week for the next episode. So waiting only a few days makes it even more exciting. Well done Jeff!

@JeffPelletier 2 года назад

Thanks Oliver! I also was hoping to give the viewer the same experience I had when racing, that there's a break in between each stage of the race, a bit of a reset. That anticipation is part of the fun in a race like this :)

@NewSkiwi 2 года назад

I love this series, it reminds me that it isn't supernatural people who do these races. But (pretty) normal people. Enjoyed your interview with Mabass from Zim. He is truly inspirational. I get the feeling he surprised himself. Such a legend. I love how you encouraged him and asked if he was ok when you passed him. Such comaraderie. And how do you run with a camera like that? Cannot wait for Part 4.

your videos are amongst the very best out there! you race, you film, even drone-footage, top notch! but the way you show people and present their awesome stories really makes your videos stand out. hats off.

@seanfrench1029 2 года назад

I've done two adventure races in Namibia and this footage is so reminiscent of the many miles plodding through the desert and eventually trying to ignore the sand in my shoes & socks despite gators. Pea gravel in some parts feels as if you have no traction. Ironically, the solitude experienced in some of those desolate places is quite moving. Apart from your own breathing and footsteps, the silence there is deafening. Production quality is top notch. Looking forward to the rest of the episodes.

@vitornoleto3699 2 года назад

JUST AMAZING !! It's awesome you seek for great stories from great people, not just recorded the race, but also show there is no limits to do this, or get out and just do something, even though a 5k trail run. Regards from Brazil

Jeff, may I ask how you got those drone shots? Did you carry all your camera gear along with you during the race or did the racing crew assist?

The race organizers carried my larger camera equipment (including drone) from camp to camp, so all I carried were my action cameras. Most of the on course drone shots are from the race photographers, with the exception of some course footage I shot once I finished running each day.
