This is how a trail ultra race should be covered!
For all the road and track runners on here, you may recognize some familiar faces like Patrick Smyth, Sage Canaday, Ryan Bak and Chris Mocko.
Yiou Wang also put down an impressive finish ahead of former Olympian Magdalena Lewy-Boulet. Julia Stamps Mallon was also in the mix.
JamJam does a great job. The next step will be a sort of live broadcast following the runners around the course.
Maybe they can pre-program some drones to follow the runners around the course.
There are certain mundane details that don't make it into the movies for a reason. Nobody wants to see the ultra folks dash off into the woods for a quick poo at Mile 37.
hell yeah!
who cares about this race
Hi,
thank you for the link and congratulation for the wonderful work to Steep Life Media.
Ciao,
Yo they should've kept the camera on the on the dude got third the entire video. That guy was hilarious.
At 8:46 appears Julia Stamps in fifth place. How many of you boys know who she is without looking her up on the internet first?
Here is a link to a story about her and why she stopped being a competitive runner.

Isn't this the race where the 2nd and 3rd place females didn't race they just a nice little fun run, waited for each other in aid stations and held hands finishing?

... are faster than you are? = Yes, much faster.
Magdalena Lewy-Boulet's marathon best is 2:26. Kaci Lickteig has run in the Olympic Trials and in the 2:40s for the marathon.There were several guys in that race that have run 2:14 to 2:16 for the marathon.These are not slow hobby joggers. But perhaps you are?

That's an amazing video and makes me want to run Lake Sonoma next year... and Mocko is quite the character. I like him as we're pretty similar in PRs on the track.
