So the legends are true! I used to hear mythical tales of "the dudes who ran the WCT in one day", but I never believed it until I saw it for myself. Thank you so much for sharing this, the fact that you accomplished all this and had the wherewithal to film it, and stay cheery the whole time just blows my mind. You are amazing and your passion is infectious.
Thanks for the video! We talked about "the mythical legend of those who have ran the trail" while we hiked it a week ago, so very cool to see it with my own two eyes. Something to strive to do one day as well I think!
You my friend are one of the most inspirational people i've watched on youtube, trail running is very new to me and you make it look so much fun, watched all your vids, im sure you could make one on how to put your shoes on and it would be informative, keep them coming Big love from the UK
Thanks to Kerry and Pat...enjoyed the doc of this run. De hyd is the beginning of the end...too dramatic....but correct in retrospect...the cougar loves to eat runners.
That video was epic. Thanks so much for that, I now know what to expect. Too bad I didn't know about your trip -- I've wanted to do this for awhile. I'm hoping to join a crew for a single-day WCT next year I guess :)
I never once had to treat my water on the Trail.... I grew up on the Trail, so, I guess I'm immune, lol.... cool video, although, you shoulda took more video of Nitinaht, we're I'm from... maybe next time... there's new boardwalk built out there now, I've helped build for my guests to help enjoy the Trail more.... :)
I did it 10yrs ago (before they had as many boardwalks) in 4 days, quite easily. I'd both like to try it with only two sleeps and take maybe 6 days to stretch it out. Neat watching memories of the area fly by.
To be, or not to be? What kind of friend would ask the other to cary a big heavy 10-15lbs bolder in the middle of a marathon? A) He is lazy? B) Testing me? C) To slow me down,(That's when he is going to kill me)?
zizzinpuss because they will see more than you. You will stop and focus on every butterfly, they will stop at the epic stuff only. end result -- Trail run = more awesome sights of epic scenery.... Hiking = more butterflies and snails.
40:10 Hiker chick 1: "Some people did the trail in what, 24 hours?" Hiker chick 2: "Some guy ran it, or did it in 24 hours." Ultrarunner: "That's ridiculous." Hiker chick 2: "I don't know how. It seems impossible to me."
