That was brilliant, feels like it was shot by a full production team. Can not wait to see what the experience will be like swapping our trails for dunes.
Many have said this but this honestly felt like a national geographic doc! I’m in awe of the scenery, animals, and your amazing storytelling, and the race hasn’t even started yet!
The wait for this series was long and hard, but oh so worth it. It feels like a professional documentary; the imagery is awesome, and the story telling as well. Can't wait for the next episode.
Awesome!!! Me and my bf waited the whole day for the premier. Not disappointed! Thank you so much for the great inspiration! Thanks to you we signed up for our first ultra this summer! Best wishes from Switzerland
@@JeffPelletier We are visiting my boyfriends sister in Quebec this summer and want to combine it with the 50k version of the QMT. I can't wait altough I'm a bit scared of the humidity :D
Loved watching this! I grew up in Namibia and it brings back such wonderful memories seeing it in such a beautiful film. Looking forward to the rest of the series!
I like that this series will show your documentary style of filming combined with your race content which is a different style, best of both worlds... Looking forward to more episodes!
Great Video..I am an Ultrarunner and...Rockhound, so Namibia is one of my dream destinations...Thanks for sharing your advetures with us...always a pleasure to watch your videos...greetings from Austria
@@JeffPelletier Yeah..Great..Looking forward to see that. I am living and training in the Granite Highlands of the so called "Mühlviertel" in Upper Austria...Alsways watching your adventures
Awesome. Just started the series. I love Namibia, you do it justice. Great to see places I’ve been, I recognize the cockatoos, 😅 stayed there. I love trail running, Africa and film creation. On all counts this is great work Jeff! Going to binge this series now ;-)
Loved this! You give such a interesting history lesson. The filming and music is fantastic as ever! Looking forward to following your adventure Jeff Thank you 🙌🙌🏴
I’ve only recently discovered this channel, so I don’t know if the following applies to all of your videos. The quality of production of this one is just next level. I enjoyed following along so much. This is some BBC stuff! Keep up the great work!
Wow I hope one day to be able to share my stories half as good as you do. I’ve started to gradually share my experiences. I’m passionate about having healthy life habits and trail running is one of my favorite sports to practice with cycling, hiking and cross country skiing, living in Québec I think you know pretty well what our winters are like hahaha. You share not only your experience in running but the culture of the country. I can’t wait to watch the next episodes. Keep on the beautifull work!
Used to your great story telling and videography. But you even stepped it up. One of the best content creators out there Jeff. I was so looking forward to this episode and can’t wait for the next one. Very, very well done. You should have your own TV Show!
Great first episode of your trip. I like the documentary style to also include some history and scenic sites. Looking forward for the other episodes. Thank you for sharing and your fabulous insights. Great inspiration!
Superb on so many levels, content, variety, the build up, setting the scene, really exciting and the race hasn't even started... how long until you're on Netflix Jeff! Keep up the good work and cannot wait for the next episode 😀

Hey Jeff, great video. Not sure if it was deliberate but your Salomon gaiters were on backwards. Theres an L and R under the Salomon tag.
It’s the only way they seemed to properly fit onto my shoes, to be honest.. guess they work both ways!
So excited for this series! I’m so glad you’re going into some details about Namibia along the way too!!
Brilliant 🤩
The Quality of this Video is outstanding! I love your Videos and they get better everytime!
I always wonder how you get this awesome shots while still running those crazy races.
Thanks so much!
I’ve wondered if yourself and Les Stroud has ever been in contact. I bet you two could do some awesome collaboration adventure film.
Working with Les Stroud would be pretty amazing :)
This was incredible.
Amazing film Jeff!!! Loved all of this and can't wait to watch the other episodes.
Thanks Chad!
Ahhhh…. Drymax socks 😀👍🏃♂️. I’ve the same pair, and love em’
They’re great!
