Looks like a fun race with spectacular scenery. I've only watched a few of your videos so far and I have to say this is becoming my favorite running channel. First rainy day we get I'll have to binge watch and get caught up with the rest of your videos :) Keep up the great work!
first off, thank you for being one of the only out-of-provincers to pronounce Saskatchewan correctly! Been watching you for a while now, cool to see you in my home province
The variety of footage really helps you to get a visceral sense of what looks like an incredible course - shots of the long lines of runners strung out across the landscape, of one or two runners in from of you, of the trail right at your feet, of the trail from high above, of the trail a few feet or a few hundred yards in front of you, etc.. Excellent editing and music! Good recap too. Thank you for taking us along on your run.
As someone who lives in Saskatchewan......WOW! I have never been to Sask Landing Provincial Park before, but it has been on our list of camping spots for a couple years now. Saskatchewan has so many hidden wonders where it completely shocks you when you see it. I often hear people say "that's Saskatchewan?" Anyways....enjoyed your video and thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful place. The only thing I knew about Saskatchewan before this was the wheat fields and open plains (I'm from Ireland). With a name like Beaver Flat I wasn't expecting this! A trail runners paradise. If I ever get to Canada I would love to do this. You did a fantastic job showcasing this Jeff, amazing and fourth place to boot. If you'd ditched the camera to get on the podium we would never have seen this so really appreciate it!! Your films are fast becoming my lunch time viewing here ;)
Another winner, Jeff. Love the way you tell the story of the race and the area while also providing little tips along the way. You're really honing your skills. Very proud to be a $ supporter of your work. Kudos.
These just keep getting better and better, Jeff. Whatever you did there at the 3:30 mark of the video looked amazing! Congrats on another great race and another fantastic video!
So epic Jeff. Wonderful doc. Loved the music to this one and that drone footage of you heading to the finish was stunning. Thank you for sharing and taking the time to film during your race. Look forward to the next one!
As always an amazing film of beautiful trails and scenery! Music matched it brilliantly too! Well done on your run and look forward as always to the next adventure!🙌🙌😃
I ran the course this past weekend and it’s every bit as beautiful as Jeff captures here, a must run for anyone within driving distance. Luckily it was 15*C and very mild winds, so it was a fantastic day.
Another great film Jeff! Loved the visuals of such a stunning landscape as well as your calm, composed attitude and friendly nature while running a race (aka training run)! The recap was much appreciated as a new ultra runner myself, it’s always great to hear how an elite athlete breaks down their run! 👍
Great video, as expected! Nice track, different from the tipical mountain/forest combo. I especially liked the music in this one and I really enjoyed seeing Jeff having fun and enjoying the race without having to hit some predefined goal! All the best to all you runners our there!
Those hills looked SO punchy! And by the strava profile it sure was. Such a cool and unique race for that region of Canada for sure. I kind get Lake Sonoma vibes? Rolling, punchy, mostly packed and runnable, probably shaped and formed by similar geological effects. Thanks for taking us along!
That 360 top-down view is such a surreal thing to get to witness Also, it's cool to get a comparison for elevation gains and distances vs the park where I hike/run. Brings a good amount of confidence to see that the overall gain per distance is only maybe ~200-300 more feet per 10k than what I'm used to. Very encouraging!
Interesting race. A slice of Saskatchewan I would never have known about otherwise. I could definitely see why that might be similar to Yakima. Jealous of the Namibia trip: that country looks gorgeous.
This was awesome thank you! I live in AB but I’m from MB so I think I’ll check it out! Definitely looking at this for my first 50K thanks to this video.
Since I wasn't able to run it this year (I was wearing a beaver costume at race HQ instead), it's wonderful to see this to remind me how beautiful it is out there. Those hot and windy conditions though. 😬
Awesome video again Jeff. Thank you for documenting the race. I think that you should get some funding from the Tourism Board of SK for how you showcased the region! Quick question: where do you stash your GoPro and Insta X2 as you swap in between them?
Thanks Greg! I keep my GoPro in my front pockets, either my shorts or pack, and I shove my Insta360 on the pole in the back of my pack where the bladder would normally go.
I really like your videos, always giving me ideas, always pushing me for a next run. So as you're going to Namibia, can I ask if you ever considered the marathon des sables?
Awesome. Exactly the kind of event i’d like to participate ! Seems to be runable…there are so many stone and rocks here into the Pyrenees ! I have been pacer past friday night during a 100 miles…
@@JeffPelletier we all want what we do not have...but anyway, hope i'll get the chance to see you when you'll come back in France...it would be a pleasure to share a run or a walk
As soon as you said “In the hills of Saskatchewan “, and right before you actually said it, asked the very same question out loud…Saskatchewan has hills? I really wasn’t listening in geography class way back in high school!
October in much of the bottom third of SK can be either gorgeous fall weather of the beginning of winter with snow so you need to watch the forecasts and keep your fingers crossed.
