Seth Demoor is BACK baby

He is ignoring signs from his body that he needs more sleep for recovery.

I try to get at least 8 hours most nights. When I can’t get 8 and get 5 due to work or something else I still feel ok getting out of bed because the majority of the nights I get 8.

This man has a very flexible schedule and can afford 8 or more hours and chooses not to sleep that long.

He'd be a lot faster if he slept 8-10 hours per night, with all the running/lifting he's doing. What is the point of training if you aren't going to sleep? He's wasting his time.

He is the egg man..she is the walrus..

lol you clearly underestimate his ability to sabotage himself. he said his alarm went off at 3:30am

If you want evidence how narcissistic he is, check out his Strava: He has 52000 followers and follows 5 - 2 of which are TL and his brother.

Nonsense, everyone knows a bit of KT tape and coffee completely cancels out lack of sleep.

obvs TL keeping a track on whether or not he is out cheating

At what point does this stuff stop people tuning in? Used to watch a few years ago but this has been intolerable for a long while.

After a heavy lifting day of 3 x 3 deadlifts with the 1 green plate on I’m surprised he’s not sleeping for 12-16 hours. The gains from that need time to be absorbed.

I doubt that many are really tuning in. They might watch 2-3 minutes of each episode and skip the rest.
Seth stuff is unwatchable at this point.

Seth has 167k subscribers but only 10 -20,000 views of each episode.

I’m surprised he didn’t go to Western States for content to bump up views/ subscribers. Perhaps he wouldn’t be welcomed by the mountain/ ultra community anymore? Or was he ever?

I think a lot of people put his videos on as background noise while they're drinking coffee and lacing up for their morning runs. They don't pay enough attention to realize how bad it's gotten.

There are people who don't regularly watch, but tune in for shoe reviews because that's big business these days.

There's the DGR diehards that actually watch and are emotionally invested in the channel. With the declining quality of his content, and the same tired formula day after day, somehow they still find him inspiring and life changing. I always think of how there is so much bad programming on cable tv, because there are millions lowest common denominator idiots that eat that stuff up. That's what I think of when I think of the core of DGR. They're the ones who are decked out in $500 worth of gear, camelbaks and all, at the 5K turkey trot, finishing in just under an hour. Of course Seth seems like a running god compared to that.

Then there are those of us who have seen enough to realize he's a loose cannon who has no idea what he's doing. But then we still tune in anyway to hate-watch and then vent about it here lmao.

But there's still people who are rational and will get there eventually, and they'll tune out too. They just need more time to realize what Seth is.

Ultimately, he's gonna have to do something with his channel. I think the current formula isn't sustainable. His numbers are going down, and he's just posting the same lazy garbage every day. His biggest videos are his shoe reviews (which honestly are not helpful at all), and when he builds up for a race and documents it. I feel like this run up to Pike's Peak is going to be an eye opener though. He's dropped the ball on his last few marathon attempts, so now he's going back to his bread and butter. However, this time there are actual elites showing up to Pike's Peak. And he's been talking big talk about facing the best competition. So he's got two choices: either he does the Ascent and gets beat down by actual talent, showing that he's not this supreme elite that DGR thinks he is. Or he dodges the competition, and does the JV race in the marathon, revealing him to be the hypocritical coward we've come to see him as. I think it'll be a lose-lose and it'll hurt his channel.

He needs to get up early so he can drive in to the city to run instead of just utilizing the excellent running opportunities right outside his door.

I find it more comical that many of his DGR minions set their alarms for 4:30 AM for the opportunity to post “FIRST!!!” in the YouTube comments two seconds after the 5:00 AM vlog upload.

He’s still working on the narrative for the Pikes Peak failure

The guy who finished 2nd to him at Pikes Peak last year is currently in second at Western States.

Not sure if it’s just LRC people dropping in but he seems to get more people calling him out in his comments now too.

Hopefully with Pikes Peak there is a good turnout of Golden Trail elites. The way the series works though most years is that if you’ve bagged enough points already, people will skip the later races and have a break before the finale.

Nothing quite like starting my day off with some soothing ASMR of SJD chewing on some eggs and creaming himself over a sip of coffee.

Most of my exposure to SJD is from reading funny LRC comments criticizing him, and I haven't watched many of his vlogs. Has he ever done anything longer than a marathon?
