    This is just too great following these FKTs. Did the north trail last weekend and cameras just dont do the elevation/grade justice lol. Very doable but lordy it's steep for pretty much the whole time. GREAT effort gents.

    The guy who has the FKT looks like he took a slightly different path based on his GPS. I'm assuming the use of poles doesn't matter and is just personal preference but idk. Obviously both efforts are amazing but imo FKTs should be tied to the exact trail. If the trail changes enough to significantly change the distance traveled then it should be an FKT on the new trail. As you said in the video the trail is a little longer than the old one. The only way to really compare them is the pace but the FKTs are technically different. But if someone went off trail that should disqualify them like it would in any race event. Need to stay on course. Not sure if there's any way to address the issue with Strava or whoever keeps track of FKTs. But either way amazing job!

What a life Seth has; owner of businesses and having all these adventures in the mountains while his wife is home with....I lost track...6 kids maybe? 7? Maybe she's not interested in the same type of adventures but sure hope True Love can get away and do some fun stuff :)

    Really love seeing you and Joseph out there crushing together. This really seems to be your natural (running) habitat! Wondering if your breathing is that heavy the entire time? I’m amazed at your aerobic capacity bc if I were breathing that heavily, I’d have a couple minutes left in me before blowing up. Cheers.

    definitely enjoyed the fkt cam. ive been wanting to do that shredding some local segments. yeah that tyler andrews cat on the same day lol. i don't know i figure if strava thinks it's the same trail then it's close enough, some segments you really have to pick your lines. i also don't know about rules regarding poles, im actually surprised they're a minute per mile faster on an effort like that

    for anyone who wants to know but not enough to dig into Strava, the other runner used poles and severely cut switchbacks. both seem to be debatably unfair in terms of CO 14er FKT attempts

    Another entertaining video and strong effort - kudos. Layers may or may not be peeled away here but like life, trails often involve twists & turns; and sometimes they don't - or at least not as many switchbacks... 😉

    Poles are ok with me unless specifically prohibited (as some races do), personal preference. Cutting switchbacks is not ok, that should disqualify you from any race or FKT attempt because you didn’t follow the set course. Just my 2 cents.
