  • I usually don't race with a camera. But I brought one along for this 50 mile race at altitude to treat it even more like a training run for the upcoming Leadville 100 mile race on August 19th. In short, try to enjoy this race and have a little fun in the process.
    However things took a turn for the worse when shortly after the halfway mark, legs wouldn't respond and I allowed myself to get really low and dejected. Thanks to some good people around me, I rallied back and was able to finish on a day when things got a little ugly. Much love to my running community!

    That pretty much captured a typical hard ultra day. Thank you for sharing this. I had a hard training run yesterday that made me doubt myself. But watching this reminded me how everyone has to fight through the downs and ups and downs of a long run. Good stuff, Billy!

    Awesome race Billy. I made it to printer boy inbound and stopped after puking 20+ times. 2nd DNF and it still hurts. Working on nutrition..
    Hope to meet you some day brother, congratulations & keep it up

    Just a guess, bc I watched this happen to a friend at an ironman race, he sat in a hot tub the night before and the next day was really difficult for him. He cramped and his legs were not operating at full capacity. And he had trained well for it. I wonder if a similar thing happens to you. Nice job pushing through!! Thanks for posting your race.

    love your films, Billy. I just ran my second marathon (Los Angeles) and knocked off 31 minutes from last year to get down to 4:12. Watching your films is inspiring, and makes me want to improve even more and to eventually tackle an ultra. Maybe one day, until then keep making great films!

    I am a marathon runner who is a 100% road runner...I know how hard it is to run full marathons and how exhausting and painful it is, so for guys like this who run looooong ultra run, I have nothing but respect! It’s a whole different level of toughness that I think is amazing!

    Would you recommend this race for someone trying to race their first ultra? How much of it is runnable. I’m coming from a road running background and the elevation definitely makes me a little nervous lol.

    • @majortakleef8445
      @majortakleef8445 7 років тому

      What's wrong with wearing a hat during the national anthem? Billy wasn't wearing a uniform which would necessitate removing the hat.

    • @LlamaCharlie
      @LlamaCharlie 7 років тому

      Major Takleef it's general etiquette to remove hats during the Anthem. If someone were in uniform, they would actually keep their headgear on and salute the flag. Again, general etiquette. There's no "rule" but often the announcer will ask to remove hats. It's kinda like the whole hand over the heart thing. You only really do it during the Pledge, but often people do it during the Anthem.

    • @Simco_
      @Simco_ 7 років тому

      Yeah, not saying you're not or anything. She was either maddogging the camera or the hat. Some people just take that seriously is all.
