Nice work. Outstanding job. Good on ya.

Nice work. I love the interviews in motion!

Brilliant video.

I started runni g (that's subjective 😂) at 57. So many obstacles these last 3 years. But i still feel compelled to chase my dream of doing an ultra one day.

I am 60 and just started running. When I do my first 1/2 marathon I will be 60, and 61 when I run my first full road marathon. Once that is behind me, I will be starting to work on a 100K trail race.

Very informative video - thanks for taking the time to interview her.

Very helpful and informative! God bless and good luck! 🙏❤👏

At 60, Started running last November, ran my first 50k within 2 weeks. I will have run 9 ultras the first year with the last 2 being 100k and 100M.

Inspiring. I want to do just a marathon for now but an ultramarathon is definitely in my thoughts.

Hi Erick, thanks for the video! I'm running the 100K next month. Are the trails pretty technical with lot of rocks and tree roots or are they pretty runnable? Thx!

Great video! I had such a blast doing the 120 last year, I may come back this year to do the 100! Great job capturing those stunning views!

Great video!

Oh hey! that's me at 1:06 in the blue shit + vest and grey shorts in front of you! Great job finishing! and great effort. Stumbling across this brought back some good moments of the race. I made it to the finish line 18 minutes past the cut off T.T

Hi Erik! We were chatting near the first summit of the Diez Vista 50k yesterday and you told me about this movie. You did a nice job with this! Concise editing; and your point about how we can all affect each other’s outcome by just sharing what we’re going through definitely hit home for me. Hope to see you on the trails again soon sometime 🏃‍♂️

disagree with training. i did 6 weeks of 20 mile runs, prior long runs were 12-14 miles. 50 mile weeks in total when i spontaneously trained for a marathon. ran 744 pace for 44 miles on a partyl trialed path- mainly road and pavement, but a few pieces of trail, wasnt at race effort. if yu can run 10 you can run 50. highdistance gets too much respect. id rather go for a base/z2 40 miler than do 20 miles at marathon pace, i know which ones tougher.

Love the video Erick. Manning Park is a beautiful place and you've done an amazing job on the video.

Great work on the run and putting this together! It almost makes me want to do one of these ridiculously long runs, but it seems so daunting. Also, there are some beautiful shots and scenery in the film. Do you take moments to appreciate the beauty of your surroundings while you are clearly exhausted and fighting for the finish line?

Great job on both the huge accomplishment and documenting it, Erick! You really would have had to dig deep, especially in the dark! Any animal sightings along the way?

Awesome!

Thank you very much for having me on Erick! It's always great to chat trails :)

feedback: the parts where the video goes into slow motion, it's really hard on the eyes. (not the one when it's at further distance but when it was focused on the legs)

Thanks for the insights, I run this race in 5 weeks!

Mind over matter.. literally 😁🤯😂

Started trail running after I saw an older fellow come running down a hiking trail I was going up with my family with. The dude had a grey beard and was $@$&& ripped… you could feel his energy! I said to my wife, “I want to be THAT!!” That was over a year ago. My legs… I never knew at 47 my legs could look like that! My shins are muscular! My whole body has new muscles, especially around my chest and abdomen. Wow! I feel flipping great! Aaaaand all my knee and hip pain are gone! GONE!!!!!

Good morning from Oregon, sir, I love and treasure your channel and story!Would you kindly provide links or suggestions where we might find Professor Blais’ yoga classes, nutrition and train plans, etc. ? Thanks, Stephen

Really cool. Thx for sharing

This was the first video of yours that I watched. Great. I've been running distance for 49 years. I learned something new today. Thank you.

Nice video

Lovely channel thank you for sharing 2:23

Never give up, go ahead, fight for your dreams, everything will get better for you, I wish you good luck. I truly love your channel. You have my full support.❤❤

Nice film - I do a bit of running, mainly road work just for fitness, but since I have been doing a lot of fell walking over the past year, naturally thoughts turned to fell running. I have never run more than a half marathon distance before but am planning to run our Yorkshire Three Peaks in summer at 26 miles and 5200 ft (1585m) of climbing - I turned 60 last week so we'll see how that pans out! - What was the longest training run you did before doing the 50? :-)

My first and only was a 40-miler. Pack a cigs a day, no training pulling 50lbs. Finish. 99% mental. #hinkleywintrer40,

This is basically a really nice David Goggins

Lots of food for thought here! I also find that my mindset in a race affects how I feel afterwards too (regardless of my time).

Nice, digestible. Thanks for making the effort and for sharing.

Stay away from carbs.

This was very interesting, really packed with useful tips. Thank you!

Thank you very much for having me on Erick! It's always great to chat trails :)

Loved the comment at 10:20 about why people stop exercising

helpful information im just started training for my first 100miler have done a fifty miler ;i want to go into this with confidence and wish do do my absolute best run rather than just finish im 63 i each year set myself a challenge and work towards it ; found what you said in this video helpful but also a little inspirational

Why have I only just found this channel? :) Great content. Just turned 50 and just started running (been a cyclist for years but need more balance in my life and training)

Excellent video. Subscribed!

Your tongue is your rudder. Speak negatively, it will send you in the wrong direction.

Wait, What? Why do we Low Carb Kero/Carnivore need Carbs?! Ever? Please explaine that. How many Low Carb athletes won the Western States 100 Miler? Check it out. There Tim Tollefson, my coach Zach Bitter and others that I have currently forgotten. Ask Louise Blais, Please.

This is great stuff. Thanks so much for sharing. On a similar journey, and I love finding like minded crazy people, to make me feel a little less insane for my own pursuits. Looking forward to taking a deep dive into more of your videos.

Great job!

So happy I stumbled across your channel. I’m recovering from knee surgery and will most likely not be able to run properly until late spring 2023, with a bot of luck. What’s better than taking some time to reevaluate my strength and other training. Am now binging. Keep it up. 👊🏻
