What these runners are capable of is truly amazing and inspiring. My fellow Ham radio operators and I had a great time helping out with the event and assisting with communications. Looking forward to next year!
Thank you for volunteering at Bigfoot and working to keep us runners safe! We are so grateful for you!
Wow Wes, that was beautiful in so many ways. You are a massive inspiration to me and many others out there my friend. The way you are able to take on big scary goals and overcome the rollercoaster of challenges and enjoyment is so well documented in your ways. Thank you for sharing your race experiences.
Also best 30 second dance party towards the end of the race. BIG congrats! 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks Floris! I’ve had a blast working through the challenges, certainly in hindsight everything looks like it was more fun. 🙌🏼
I love how you are putting the names of the other runners around you. Makes the videos feel more personal for some reason. Love your videos!!!!
I’m glad you like that! I like doing it for the 200 videos because a lot of us see each other many times over the 3 or 4 days.
I really love seeing you do the races Wes, I started trail running about 4 Months ago and watching your videos really inspires me to continue despites the pains and small injuries I'm having.
Thanks!!
Good luck with your injuries! Take care of yourself and take it slow. Thank you for watching the channel!
Love every one of your adventures Wes! Thanks for sharing
Thank you Kris! It is always exciting for me to release these videos, I love hearing what people think about them.
What a phenomenal take along for us to share in with you!!! So amazing. Your genuine love of running, your wife, and continually thanking the volunteers. So incredible, you’re truly an inspiration!!!! Great job and congratulations 🎉
Thank you so much! I’m glad you watched and enjoyed this video.
I enjoyed meeting you out on those trails, Wes! This is great!
It was so good to meet you! Congrats on your fantastic race! And thank you for watching my recap.
I will be watching this video a LOT as I get ready for this event in August! You do such an amazing job!!
Thanks Garren! I have a copy of Ryan Chukuske's Bigfoot 200 book. Maybe you'd like to read it as part of your prep? www.amazon.com/Bigfoot-200-Because-You-Know/dp/1633936872
@@wplate Great video! Do you know if there's a pdf/kindle version somewhere? I'd love to read it as prep for my bigfoot race this year, but not sure I want to pay $150 for a copy :D

Thank you Chad! Thanks for watching and enjoying the ride. This one felt really epic.
Amazing work Wes! Your videos have been such an inspiration to me that I took the plunge and will be running the 2023 BF200. Thank you again for the videos, it's evident that you put a lot of time and effort into making these!
Thank you Michael! I'm so happy you're going to tackle Bigfoot next year, that's exciting. It will be very difficult to prepare and do it, but it is doable. Onward onward onward. th-cam.com/channels/AbGmxSxIw-JS9RumJkKQhw.htmljoin

I think this is your best produced and beautiful video to date. The clarity really pops and you chose fantastic scenes to include. PS way to go on the adventure, Bigfoot looks so hard!
Thank you Rich! 🙌🏼 appreciate the compliment very much. I’m so happy you enjoyed this one so much.
I really enoyed following along with this one. It brought back all the great memories from 2019. Glad you've ticked this one off the list. Definitely an awesome route.
Love the Google Earth flyovers at night. That's some nice production right there 🤩
I’m so happy you watched it and enjoyed it Aaron! The course is so tough. Hope you’re well friend!
Another fantastic video Wes! I so love watching them, as soon as they pop up I am planning my next coffee break so that I can relax and enjoy them! 200 is an unimaginable distance but it's great to see how you deal with it. You never know...Thanks again for sharing your stories with us, and show casing your country

Beautiful surreal 👍🏻. Thanks for sharing this video
Thanks for watching!
Incredible video and an incredible journey. Congrats on finishing.
Thank you Donald!
I see a lot of courage, passion and love in this video. Thanks a lot for sharing with us Sir, grateful 🙏🙏🙏
So nice of you to share this. Thank you!
It was so much fun to see sections of the course that I did in the dark. What a beautiful, brutal, amazing experience; congratulations!
I missed good stuff in the dark! I would really like to see Lewis River and I would like to see the Klickitat section in the light too. It was a brutal course. I was expecting it to be hard, but there were parts that surprised me. It was quite a confidence-booster to finish it.
Great video! Thanks for sharing this awesome experience with us
Thank you Joseph! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
Thank you for being a channel member!
I’m glad you like this video. I think this course is the hardest of the 200s I’ve done, I wish I could have captured more of the challenging parts. The experience was difficult, but I feel changed by it. Another major confidence booster.
Congrats!! You did amazing! What a beautiful trail! Wooded scenery like that is my favorite! 🤩
Thank you Olivia! I’m happy you enjoyed this video.
Alright Wes, I've been a fan for a long while, but that edit at 36:32 was disgustingly good. Bravo!
It's really nice to see another editor who's into this sport. I've not found a way to combine my running with video work yet (although in a way it's sort of obvious, I've got the tools, just lacking the drive to make running films), but the way you weave documentation into a narrative in such a simple but highly polished way is hugely inspirational - as are your running achievements. It's a continent away so tough to make time for, but Cocodona is on my bucket list - maybe see you there one day!
I’m so happy you liked that transition. We were six close to the mountain, but I hadn’t a good chance to shoot it, so I thought of this animation. :) Itnis hard work to edit after the race, as you can imagine it takes so long to work on, and I feel like I have insufficient free time for it. But I love sharing the results. I am so happy you enjoyed watching.
You are my hero Wes. Amazing!
Thank you Nick!
Thank tor taking us on such a beautiful breathtaking journey.
You’re welcome! Thank you for watching!
@@wplate stumbled onto your page. Thank you for the look at Mt
St. Helens im a million miles away from your world I really appreciate your spirit. Had no concept of what the blast zone actually looked like. Thank you. Stay safe.
@@darrickmalloy6909 Darrick, I'm so happy you came across this channel! Here are two other videos I have of the Mt St Helens area...
th-cam.com/video/b0uBFSbty0o/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/J3k44QButHc/w-d-xo.html
Great job putting the video together and great race.
Thank you Steve!
amazing journey. i loved the 30 seconds dance party did not see that coming! you inspire me so much I did my first 50 miles last Sunday. I had such a great and fun time at the trails. no low points at all! trying a 100km at the end of oktober and then decide if I might hop into to a 100 mile race. I believe I can finish I just don't want to get injured for months and take that risk as I am booking a trip to the Swiss alps next summer for a 100KM! I really love how vivid your presents feels near the finish and how clear you sound after such a long journey! amazing job even running in the last segment!!!
Congrats on your first 50M finish Frank! 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 good luck at your 100K. Stay positive when you can, and if you hit a low remember that it shall pass. As Kerry said in my first Cocodona video, acknowledge the feeling, then move on. As you go farther in distance low points are more likely. Just a part of the deal.
Well registered for 2024s race. We'll see if I get in but figured let watch Wes's journey so I can prepare
Good luck with the lottery! Damn the Bigfoot course is amazing.
Good running with you first night man. Wish I kept pace - I was panicking as I could not sleep for first 2 nights and slowed down. Now I know - I should have just charged until I felt like sleeping- great video - enjoying it. Re-living the experience
It was fun to share that section together! I wish I’d had a little more sleep before the trials of the Klickitat section, but otherwise our sleeping strategy worked pretty well.
Bloody well done mate! :)
Thank you Andy! 🙌🏼
This is my neck of the woods. I’ve run a bunch of these trails and they’re so very cool. The volcano sections are what I imagine running on Mars would be like.
That area is totally from another planet!
Also, I want to learn to run like you. You're a great example and inspiration to may runners (including myself)!
This long sport is fun! It is fun to watch you run fast, but I can’t do that. This long and slow endurance thing works for me.
It was cool seeing you out there Wes, sincerely “random guy from the boulder fields and chain of lakes aid station”
Thank you for volunteering, my friend, that aid station was my favorite. We had so much fun there!
Great content as always! We had to do math as you had the same mileage listed for Quartz & Chain of Lakes! 😂 Way to work it! 👊🏼💜
Dammit, the graphic there is wrong? 😔 ugh! Thanks for letting me know.
@@wplate no prob, such a great video! 💜🙏🏼
So awesome to watch you Finnish that. 👍
Thanks for watching my video! 🙌🏼
HOLY shit! You're incredible. What strength and dedication
Thank you! 😀 These races are so hard, and also so much fun.
What an epic journey. Hard and beautiful 👊🤪 Fantastic documentary, enjoyed it.
Thank you Erik!
Incredible video and an incredible journey. Congrats on finishing. I was a kid in grade school when St. Helens blew it's top. It's incredible how so much of it still looks like a wasteland.
It is so different in the blast zone, like another planet.
DONALD 😁
Well done! Amazing.
Thank you very much Kim!
Congrats, looked awesome.
Thank you!
30 second dance party 😅 I love you guys and I am doing my ten mile on the treadmill easy right now w a pulled back muscle. Your calm posts are so fun
I hope your back feels better soon! 🤞🏼💪🏼
@@wplate Wes! It's just about 99% now!!
Wow great story. Great movie.....and congratz. Greetz from holland
Thank you I'm happy you enjoyed the video!
Cascade Crest was my first 100 back in 2008. Looking at this one for my 1st 200 next summer. Great video, and really impressive performance.
Nice! You’ll hate it, then you’ll love it. When I was preparing for my first 200 at Moab 240 in 2019, I paced at Bigfoot and Tahoe, and I found that experience to be INVALUABLE. Being on a 200 course, going 200 pace, was really educational.
once again, epic!
Thank you!
Wow! Way to go. Awesome race and video. I take back my other comment. You are not a normal runner like me. You are awesome. Inspirational. One day.
I tend to think I’m a normal guy, but I spent the last four or five years training fairly consistently and working hard to finish big tough events. Not sure what normal is anymore, I feel quite inadequate when I compare with what a lot of my friends are running. But I do love this sport, it has really changed my life.
That's amazing!! I hope to be there one day.
I hope you do. The challenge is high, but damn what an adventure. Good luck! Thanks for watching. 🙌🏼
Good job Wes!
Thank you Bill!
Parabéns Wes, gigante.

Thanks for watching Carrie Ann!
@@wplate I really enjoy your videos. The beautiful imagery, the honesty, seeing the other runners. Your films feel way more intimate than other runners I follow, and even though I'm not an ultra runner, seeing you and your friends preserve is a huge motivator for me to keep getting out there and it teaches me that no adventure is completely out of reach
@@carrieannbeckerfishman4292 this reply made my day and week and month. Thank you for sharing how these videos help motivate you, even though you’re not running ultras. That makes me so happy! 🙏🏼

@@wplate Thank you for the gear list! 🥳
My goodness, that was a mammoth trek, well done
Very mammoth!
Hey Wes. I'm curious why you wear two GPS watches. Looks like you have a Vertix2 on, which should have enough juice for the full 200mi, so wondering what strategy I'm missing. Thanks, and love your vids. New sub here!
Thank you for subscribing! We have a channel membership option too, bonus content appears there but mainly it is there for fans to support the channel. :)
I started wearing two watches at Cocodona, to test the Coros and see if I liked it enough to ditch my Garmin. But the Coros does not have the same features I love from my Garmin, so I use the Coros as a backup recording and a second data screen. I can get info from the Coros while the Garmin shows me other info.
Impressive. What a team!
Thank you Dan! 🙌🏼
Just Incredible Jeff !!! …… Just Incredible! Hey , question……the water bottles you used,,,,, were they the collapsible kind, and the straws with the bite bits came with it ? I’d like to get the same kind of water bottles and straws. A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to you Jeff,, and a BIG SHOUT OUT TO YOUR WIFE !…….WOW- What a Support Crew 😀👍.
I really like these bottles!

Loved the video! So epic. What an accomplishment. Congrats!! I’m doing my first ultra this summer (100m).
Curious what your training was like for this compared to a 100? Would love to hear more. This is my dream race to compete maybe in 2-3 years.
Hi Nick! What 100 are you running this summer? For me 200 mile training includes more hiking, especially with vert, you’ll want that for Bigfoot. I also practiced a long heavy pack overnight with trail sleep training run leading up to my first 200. th-cam.com/video/xSvpqOarCoc/w-d-xo.html
Long back to backs, even three days of long runs, helps train you to get out and keep moving when you’re tired. 200s need more mental training I think. Get out in the slog and push through it. This was one of my best Bigfoot training runs: th-cam.com/video/l9RNp8RfHsM/w-d-xo.html
@@wplate Thanks for the response! It is the Burning River 100. It is in Ohio so it is pretty flat. At least as far as ultras go lol. It has 10k of elevation. So for more elevation and longer distances the hiking training may be hard. My wife and I do a few backpacking trips a year. But, will be hard to do that any amount of frequency. Love your videos too! Thanks for sharing the videos!
@@nickmazzino5003 good luck at Burning River!
Lots of people train for 200s in flatter places than Ohio, so it is definitely possible. Enjoy your training!
Good for you man! So tough!! I can’t even begin to imagine how u just keep on keeping on with the unbearable weight of the shear nr of miles ahead of you…
Keeping on keeping on is the only option!
Curious how you feel after one of those power naps in back of the car mid race if u want to describe in a flog. Must be super hard to get up, body sore!
@@willemvanriet7160 Tackled this question in the Training VLOG episode coming out tomorrow. Thanks!
I was looking for a video about an actual Bigfoot lol
This video is about the actual Bigfoot 200 endurance run.
Congratulations, Wes. Well done. May I ask what glasses you use? I don't like to always wear sunglasses on the trail and I need something to keep the grit out. Thanks.
I like having glasses for sun protection, wind protection, branch protection… these are great! www.rei.com/product/851282/tifosi-veloce-fototec-photochromic-sunglasses
salut wes merci pour tes super vidéos
j ai 2 questions pour toi
-tu fais du trail depuis combien de temps
-comment fais tu pour gérer la douleur au bout d'un moment ?
d avance merci
Hi! I started trail running about nine years ago. I don't believe I experience that much pain, but there are times when things just hurt. As long as it isn't an injury, pain is just another thing to push through. It doesn't last.
I hope you don’t mind me asking: what kind of headlamp are you using?
I use a Petzl MYO Headlamp.
It is an older headlamp, I don't think Petzl makes it any more. www.rei.com/product/887896/petzl-myo-headlamp
no doubt your family is proud of you. kiss says it all. God bless.
I’m very lucky to have such a supportive family.
Wow man! This is a journey! I would love to do something like this! Amazing simply amazing! I’m going all out for 1k subs this year and I would love to do a one of these! Such beautiful scenery and some of the map and google things where great
Thanks for checking it out! I subbed your channel, good luck on getting to your goal! Endurance runs like these are incredible experiences, the community is the greatest there is and there's so much encouragement and support to help you along the way.
@@wplate dude I was watching this then the Tahoe one incredible loved the way you thanked the vaulnteers after each stop super nice! Seem like a great set of people! And the locations you have are breathtaking! I’ve just got back from a two week travel trip round Poland 🇵🇱
@@DanUnplanned The sport doesn't exist without volunteers, I love to thank them. I have volunteered at races and it feels so good to help runners complete their goals. I volunteered last year at Moab 240 and had a blast. Another thing you can do to experience the wonder of ultra running! :)

My weekly training varies. I am coached by Corrine Malcolm and her training plan sets up what I do each week. Here is my Strava training log: www.strava.com/athletes/877605/training/log
I'm running my first ultra this year and it's going to be Bigfoot in August. I finally running late last year and I hope I do great this year and Bigfoot I really need it. I lost a lot last year
Which distance are you running at Bigfoot?
I'm running the 200 miles I don't have any one there to support me 😔 and I find freedom when I'm running now I wish I sponsor and the support but I I have to do it on my own
@@thomaswilliams5722 wow! It has been done before, good luck!
Yes it's going to be amazing I watched all of your videos
Can I ask, and this is taking nothing away from anyone who completes this race and distance….what percentage do you run and then hike over the race ? Congratulations on a brilliant video and TH-cam channel
This question gets asked from time to time. I have no idea the answer.

2 Vertix 2s??
Just one Vertix 2. The other is a Garmin Enduro
I'm running the Bigfoot 200 miles Wes I wish I had some one there to support me but I don't I doing it on my own I guess God only once me to do it on my own
What was it that was scary on your last night out there?
A narrow steep trail up to the first peak in that section had overgrown bushes browsing from the left and a cliff to the right. At least that’s what I saw at 2am or whatever it was. I was so scared of tripping or slipping. I wouldn’t mind seeing that let in the daylight, what was actually like? Others weren’t as scared, but Scott was also freaked out. In fact after crossing the mountain peak there that had slippery sand underfoot, Scott did slip and fall. Thankfully he just landed on his rear in the trail, but we were really fearful of falling through there, so much steep stuff off the side. It really slowed us down.
That's gnarly! Thank you so much for making these videos wes. They are greatly appreciated.
