That's amazing, hope to meet you this year.
I’m doing a ten day dispersed challenge April 13th . In 6 days . Wish me luck , me my truck and rifles and dehydrated food ! Also i subscribed to you ❤ my channel is cool , but not like yours
Subscriber 735 🎉
That is quite an accomplishment !
My feet hurt, just watching.
I wish you both luck this year
Thank you!
Just curious, are you hiking in wet shoes with wet feet with all those creek crossings?
Feet got wet, but we stopped to change socks every couple of hours. I will change socks earlier when wet and bring a third pair of socks next time.
Thanks for watching!
Your video was my first exposure to this event! I had the privilege of meeting you before the start of the 2024 A100. I decided on the 50 miler to see what I was getting into (bad knees). Finished the 50 in 21:01:59. If I remember you were doing the 100 miler, I hope you were able to finish! Thanks again for taking the time to make the video.
Thank you for introducing yourself! Great job on the 50! I was able to complete the 100 this year. The knees are finally recovering. Working on the video now. Hope to have it out in a couple of weeks.
@@wildernessoutreach2 AWESOME! I look forward to the video!
Congrats. I watched the video to see my hike in June of this year but unfortunately you hiked through there at night. Did see you crossing the bridge in Kelletville though.
Thanks for watching! Were you able to finish?
@@wildernessoutreach2 I wasn't participating in the hike 100 challenge, just doing some hiking/camping. At 65 I dont move as fast LOL
@@bernielamont825 It is a beautiful place hike and camp!
Nice attempt! I was fortunate enough to finish the 100 this year (44 hours). I probably passed you while you were sleeping near root run. You guys went out quick! I was probably right behind you in the beginning and when I started sweating a lot I just stopped and asked myself what the hell I was doing. It wasn't part of my plan to move that fast so I slowed down. I know you said you had blisters so for what its worth I wore thin Injinji Toe Socks and the Altra Olympus 4s. I was blister free for the entire event. Foot pain was unreal though - I don't think there is any way to prepare to be on your feet for that length of time. After a while I just stopped taking breaks because there was no point- it wouldn't stop the foot pain. That was also brutal that you guys didn't stay together. That last 22 miles I would've died to have someone to talk to and keep an eye on me as my sleep deprived ass hallucinated my way to the finish line. Hope you both try again and get it next year!
Congratulations on finishing!
Thanks for the tips. I walked through a couple of creeks early. I should have changed socks right away...
I think a slower pace with less planned sleep is the way to go. We will be trying again next year.
Great job! You guys did awesome!
Thank you! Tougher than I thought.... wait until next year!
Thanks for posting this, thinking of doing it in 2024. 😊
You're welcome! Thanks for watching. It is a great event. I missed it this year but plan on making it in 2024.
How many typically run this and how many finish? Sounds amazing
They have 4 different challenges. 25, 50, 75 and 100 milers. Typically 150+ participate. Maybe 30 in the 100 with half finishing.
The volunteers are amazing. It is quite challenging... I hope to make it to 100 miles in 2023
@@wildernessoutreach2 best of luck to you. May your steps be true and the wind at your back. I’m hoping to complete my NCT100 in 2023. But not all at once lol. I’m in Toledo. Hope to do some of my miles in the Allegheny N. Forest on that section of NCT
@@HanzgohFilms Thank you and good luck! it is a beautiful section
These videos are an immense help to A-100 participants! I was lucky enough to complete it last year (2021)…the hallucinating is crazy for the last 25 miles…for what it’s worth, I didn’t stop for sleep the entire hike…congrats on your mileage! You definitely have a great attitude for it!
Thanks for the comment. Gonna try again next year. Already working on new strategies.
Nice Job Randy. Quite an experience.
Thanks Matt! Let me know if you want to join me next year.
Congrats, Randy and Dylan. You guys are amazing!! So proud of both of you!!
