One of my favorite series right now! The audacity to stop for a portapotty and still shoot for first place is nutty
I'm fairly new to running but it is absolutely mind boggling to me that you can run a 3:14 / km for a half. Beast.
Run the Bismarck, ND marathon on September 22nd. $250 to win + $1500 to beat all-time race record (2:26.36)
I hope he sees this
@mottesen_runs
Love they actually handed you $ notes 😂
def the best comedy in one of your videos so far, keep up the good work
I watch this series because I love how he is showing how a normal guy who works a full time job can do what he does.
But this video, with the edits, had me laughing 😂
No lie, I've been waiting for the next video lol did I miss it??
That was some solid editing
I just want to let you know, I don’t run, and I don’t watch any running videos, but so far I’ve watched every episode of this series and it’s great.
One piece of constructive feedback I’d give - the races & locations are cool! If there were any way to get more good footage during the races, like someone with a camera on the sidelines a few times, I think those sections would be even more engaging to watch.
Anyway, keep up the great work! I’m excited to see where this series goes
I appreciate the comment! Glad you’ve enjoyed it.
I definitely wish I was getting better race footage. As you can tell, I just do the best I can with what I can scrap up. Not ideal, hopefully in the future I can get someone to ride along in some
the ending montage of the race was hilarious, subbed!
We need an end-of-series review of the coolest trophies/medals you manage to pick up during this challenge. Though I have a feeling we've just seen the winner!
Enjoying your content. Your dedication to running on top of working full-time and being a dad is very inspiring to me.
You should try the Jackson Hole quarter or half marathon in September. It’s so scenic!
That's quite impressive, because 1 : 07 : 41 is pro level time. Not super elite but professional runner territory. Kudos to you for keeping the bathroom break super short.
You’re like a more likable version of the athlete special 😂
I just saw Phily Bowden's "Track and Field is Broken: Could TH-cam Fix It?" video, and it didn't really occur to me how busted professional track and field is in terms of paying the athletes (I'm just a middle-age couch to 5k type jogger and never did track). It puts your entire series into a new light for me. I shouted out your series in the comments, but if you agree with her (that pay is broken and youtube is something aspiring professional athletes can use to fund their training), it might be an idea for something you can talk about it a video or during this series.
I’ll have to check out that video. Yeah it’s difficult for the “elite but not pro” group of runners. I make a little bit of money from running (clearly haha) but nowhere near making a living. I can see TH-cam as a way to help bridge the gap
Love seeing footage from other races around the country. Great video as always!
Watching this from my own toilet. Real full circle moment.
This series is brilliant. Congrats on the achievements!!!
This video is pretty neat.
Bryce Hoppel is a good one!
that canyon was pretty neat
Plotting other people's gpx data is crazy, it's a smart idea too if it's public on Strava
run bryce
The Paris Bound 2024 shirt is so sick! Also, good job on the win! Fantastic series, loving it!
I love this series!
Im curious what your total prize money is after accounting for race entrance fees. Could make for interesting analysis. Nice race!
love this series man
crazy how easy you made it look on this one lol 3:15 pace is nuts
i used to live around there, really beautiful! i was gonna run this, but my family moved so i couldn’t try to win😂
went for a pee break and still won by a sizable margin 🤯
Love this series, was exited to see new episode. The crazy 3 seconds of editing at 3.02 gave me a fright. Keep it up
speedy boi systematically crushes the dreams of local legends everywhere.
My favourite series on TH-cam at the moment. Channel is growing... :)
Dude this is awesome
Loving this series, can't wait for more episodes!
I love watching you bomb down half marathons in insane times.
Also production took a leap in this vid.
Nothing like a mid race speed of light numero dos. Fire race dude.
awesome video
literally cash prize! keep the hard work on
Come run top of Utah half next week, could be an “easy” few hundred dollars
That does look like a good opportunity... I'm not sure I can make it work that weekend
Nothing but W's in this series
Man you’re blowing up with subs.
Michael this series is fire 🔥🔥🔥.
Love this serie, good luck !
Love this series, watching in 🇮🇪
How do you find races with prize money? I am about to be a senior and after this year I would love to do some road races with prizes. Love the series keep it up 🎉
YEAAA BUDDY!!! Nice work on the run and video!
For me, nature's one of the neatest things on this planet.
You are a speed demon! Nice dub
Love this series man!
Great stuff.., especially spending the $20, to support that race event
fav running channel rn
If you need a last minute boost, May 4th is the Lincoln Marathon. Good prize money in the full and half, and probably winnable for you.
Winning despite the bathroom break 😮 🤙
The hat is sick. Opposite of that Freedom 5K shirt.
I love this series
great video love it
fire series dude, gotta get 20,000 after u finish this
Great job MO!
BEASTTTTT
Stopping for a bathroom break, filming yourself during a race, and still coming first with a wide enough margin to record the second place finisher. Incredible. Disgusting. Incredible.
You are doing well, run on
It’s an aspen!
You could run the Lincoln marathon
The bowl is so funny
Fun series man
Boulderthon is giving a $10K cash prize for anyone who can break the state 5k record! That would make quick work of it if you are up for it!
I wish I could say that I could go run 13:30 at altitude, but that is a FAST time. Unfortunately it’s out of my wheelhouse
@@mottesen_runs Well you're a whole lot closer to it than I am! loving the series!
No one is talking about how you went to the bathroom during the race and still won by 2 minutes 😭 imagine getting a PR on a race with a bathroom break 😂
bro go on to $20000 this year. You can do it
Great Video!
Ok now race until you're $10k in the green after all expenses.
Coolest looking trophy I’ve seen (nice surname btw)
Another ottesen! Not too many of us around
Yeah, more of us here in Scandinavia than in Utah I imagine
I call those type of stones on your trophy as 'ACME' stones. Like the ones Wile E. Coyote is such a connoisseur of.
Bryce is really neat place to see them.
Edit: Also, you need to find a new transition style that isn't you sweeping your hand.
Quick maffs: At 30 sec per potty you could do 81 stops and still beat my PB. Enjoying the series. Hoodoo? You do.

Hey Michael my friend is going on a mission next month for a year and he doesn’t know how he is going to be able to train. Any tips for him to? He’s an 800 meter and mile guy. Thanks!
Great question.. honestly it’s tough for any missionary to get any real training in. You just have to trust that it’s good thing to be doing, and you can get fit quickly as soon as you return.
That said, I was fortunate with a few companions that I was able to do a few miles with most mornings, and a couple that would come to the track with me so I could just do laps in my own. It’s always worth asking your companions to help you out a little if they’re willing
Put the other young pup on a bike!
@@mottesen_runs ill let him know, thanks!
I really thought he was going to say he stopped to take a wee off a bridge or something.
say hi to me at byu farm practice if you ever come!
me when i'm early :D
why not Alphafly 3 ????
I don’t have any… yet ;)
let's get into bryce's canyon 💀💀
Michael, what cameras are you filming with?
My iPhone 11 (when I’m out and about) and a Sony ZV-1F for the 4k
$500 on this easy win…
You just need to sign up more of these runs, and you are done in just another 15 races…😊… if Utah is tough race, don’t sign up for it….lol 😂
Not to be that person, but 😅are you counting your expenses?
I am tracking it… but it’s not counting towards the challenge. I’ll probably do a video at the end and break it down separate of the challenge
So dramatic....
Dude I don’t think you count as a non professional runner.
Watch the first video 🙃
But hey, I’ll take it as a compliment
Driving for Uber or Amazon is where your future lies, papi....
