A coach is normally an older person, perhaps a retired athlete. But a coach that is a champion inspires by example. How powerful.

[@RunningWildSandi]

This was a beautiful film on Iris. However, what was said in the work scenes indicates that she should be paid more by Scott.

[@alainlem4506]

[@jameseden9380]

What is the song at 12:17? Thanks

[@thierrygonon7714]

trés beau reportage mais dommage que se soit exclusivement en anglais !!!

[@mikes7654]

She should do the Western States 100 ! She’d win it or podium for sure 🙂👍🏃‍♀️.

[@brucerhodes8197]

I was thinking the same thing, I'd love to see her and Courtney Dauwalter running together... I think these skyrunning events are much shorter though, typically around 30k.

[@mikes7654]

@@brucerhodes8197 She loves it so much though, and with the extra training miles , she’d get it 😃👍🏃‍♀️.

[@paulwall5706]

👍🏃‍♀️🎽🥈👍

[@viktorsokolovsky6539]

Many of us get her, a few of us exist like her. Here’s to a fellow blue one…

[@JohnSmith-rx2uv]

Who's Iris Pessey?

[@billymarlene380]

Iris has such a strong athletic spirit. Such a spirit that is inside and shining right through to the outside, this is what we can see also in animals like that of a horse- a strong spirit of strength and endurance that can capture the heart of the onlookers as they witness the beauty of such spirit.😂Iris you captured my heart the first moment I saw that spirit in your face, yes I am a fan!❤️🌿🏃‍♀️🧘🏼🙏
