    Loved watching the live stream as you ladies kicking ass. So inspired. While I am new to ultra trail running and anything more than a 1/2 marathon, I am excited to learn how to become a better ultra running by listening in and following your journey!

    As a male viewer I was very upset about the coverage not being equal. And you’re very right about the research aspect. I had a look at the Mt. Fuji livestream and saw, that Corrine had done research about a whole bunch of Asian athletes most of us have never heard of. This is something anyone could do if they intend to be professional. And Katie is right: We buy the shoes and the companies make billions every year, so it should be possible to make reasonable efforts to tell the stories we want to hear about and don’t plaster commercials above of it. The livestream in itself is the best advertising they could have of they wanted to.
