    Beautiful race! Cooling off at 14:00 is so relatable. I love races with streams like that.

      Whether it's a race or a long run, the streams are nice! I've learned to really appreciate them to cool you off and splash the sweat/salt off your face. Appreciate you watching the video! Looks like you've been sharing more videos lately too. Keep up the great work!

      @SeeChadRun  3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Best of luck this Saturday! That's pretty exciting and it's an awesome race! My suggestions or tips would be to not underestimate the second climb between miles 14 to 18, save a little bit of energy for the downhill to the finish line, and enjoy all of the views! Wish I could run it this year but, I just finished a 100 mile ultra a week and a half ago (UTE 100 video is also on my channel right now!) th-cam.com/video/wUah95mbE1I/w-d-xo.htmlsi=oYik6luO9p1UD0f0

    The people need to know what shoe did Chad pick for the toughest 50k in Colorado 🤔 As always great job and video content, keep them coming…

    • @SeeChadRun
      @SeeChadRun  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Haha! I went with the Salomon Pulsar Trail Pro 2 shoes since they have a little more underfoot cushioning and bounce. That said, I found that for this distance and terrain that I developed a small blister on the inside of my right foot in that shoe. I think it's because the arch is more forward than needed for my foot (never felt that before until mile 25ish). Other than that, the shoes were great but if I were to do it again, I'd choose my trusted adidas TERREX Speed Ultra trail shoes or even the New Balance Summit Unknown v4.
      On a lesser related note, Puma is sending me their new Voyage NITRO v3, and eventually the Fast-Trac Apex NITRO (both of which offer major improvements over their predecessors). Can't wait to review those!

      @@SeeChadRun Interesting I haven’t tried the Salomon Pulsar Trail Pro 2, I recently did a 66km with 10,500 elevation gain and opted for the Salomon Genesis “great shoe” wide toe box compared to other Salomon. I would definitely recommend and would race again in them. Other note as you mentioned standing by for your upcoming shoes reviews “always a pleasure to watch”. I wish I could run in the Adidas Terrex Speed Ultra, just not enough cushion for me on the long distance trail run above 42KM. But a great shoe, Take care and have a great week…
