My first marathon and 50K ultramarathon | Birthday run

- I had always thought that it would be cool to run an ultra, but did not think that it would come so soon and with so little focused training. Since finishing the Sierra High Route, I've found my body to be much more resilient to aches and pains - and quickly converted this hiking fitness into running fitness. This is one for my record books.

Typically with any other running video I get bored after 30 seconds, but not with any of yours. I don't know what it is, but watching your running videos, and just any of your videos in general, I always watch the entire thing and I'm super excited when I see that you've posted. Amazing job. And by the way, you definitely don't look 30...
Thank you Blaine, that means a lot! I know I may not look 30 but this body definitely feels like it 😂
Happy belated birthday and congrats on this run!
Right on! Happy birthday, congrats on your first ultra, and thanks for sharing!
Thanks for the support and wishes, Mike!
Awesome job! Very cool video. Wishing you a HAPPY BIRTHDAY, Your brother was a trooper so a big shout out to him too
Thank you! I’ll pass on your shout out to him 😄
You are so inspiring!
So cool! Congratulations.🎉🎊🎈 happy 30th
Thank you Martha!
Awesome! And Happy Birthday! 🎂
Thanks Barron!
Happy birthday Jimmy. This is a great way of celebrating turning 30!
Thank you, Yongsung!
Happy Birthday, Nice running video!
Thank you Darren!
@@HikingNerd I just started my UA-cam channel this year and would love to get some feedback. If you get a chance stop on by and let me know what you think. Thank You
Congrats and happy birthday!
Thank you!
Happy Birthday! At 30 the best is yet to come! After sheltering at home for three months (March thru May), I stood up one day and staggered. I realized sitting that long had really taken a toll on my balance and my body. I came across your JMT video and was inspired to take up hiking. At 60+ years old I feel like a late bloomer, but I've so enjoyed your videos and your enthusiasm, it was the kick in the pants I needed to get up and out. Thankfully, there are many, many trails here in Sonoma County where I live. I'm now able to hike up and down Taylor Mountain without wondering why I do this to myself. Ha ha! Took me 8 weeks of hiking almost everyday, but I feel like it's almost getting easy now. So, congrats again on your birthday milestone, and thanks again for the inspiration! :D
This is wonderful to hear, thank you for sharing and for the birthday wishes! I’m definitely looking forward to all the decades to come and expect I’ll continue to be inspired (and can hopefully be a source of inspiration) by everything that nature has to offer.
What an inspiration I run a mile Frequently but I’d love to do that one day
👍🏃♂️👍Happy birthday!㊗️
Thank you Yonghwan!
Ok...so you just inspired me to get back to it! Congrats again!
Woohoo! Go get it Mara!
Well done with the run & happy birthday, I do like to get an epic run in on my birthdays, guaranteed great day out 👍🏃
Thank you!
Wow good job,! Happy Birthdaay! You got a good bro.👍
Thanks Jeffrey! Yes, he’s the best bro!
Great video! Liked the mile per mile updates. Congratulations! :)
Thank you!
Awesome job and happy 30!
Awesome to see another runner pushing hard! As a raod marathoner and UA-camr I love sharing tips on my channel! Keep sharing - this is really inspiring! I'm following your channel!
Thanks! I guess I’ve become a runner huh?
@@HikingNerd That you are! Keep pushing!
Hmm, training for the TRT but that should put me on the path to run 38 this summer! I like it. By the time I'm in my 70s we'd better have the technology to rebuild me with bionic legs or there simply won't be enough hours in the day!
Happy birthday!!! I just came across your videos recently and they're all awesome I think! I very much like your Mt. Rainer video, I live in Washington State! Congratulations to you and your friends for summiting Mt. Rainer!! Also, any tips on how to train for Mt. Rainer?
Thanks Jana! Generally more specific training would be better - you can practice rope travel, crevasse rescue, and general mountaineering skills on friendlier mountains. For fitness, I also find climbing other mountains to be the most helpful and to supplement with other cardio activities. We were quite risk averse with our preparation so we wanted to minimize variables and surprises as much as feasible.
@@HikingNerd Thank you so very much for taking the time to read and respond to my comment!! I very much appreciate it and take value of your input!! 😃😃 Keep being awesome! And I'm definitely rooting for you on your adventures!!!
Awesome job! Have you posted a video about your Sierra High Route trip? After doing the JMT, as well as the Northern Yosemite High Route (on a Skurka led trip), the SHR is next on the bucket list, though with a new baby, it might be a few years haha.
Still working through that video! It’s a beast.
That's awesome, Jimmy! Good for you! I'd do it if I were MUCH younger. As it is, I'd have to do 50 miles on my next birthday and the only way that's happening is if I were being dragged by a car.
With the right gear, getting dragged by a car sounds fun!
Kenny Le How about 50K?! 😊
@@InfamousMS Interesting...
What are you going to do when you hit 90? 😅
Thanks for a little (lot) inspiration!
We can adjust the unit of measurement or method of transportation later 🙃 it could be 90 miles by bike or 90 meters with an electric wheelchair. I think the important thing is to keep on striving!
Happy Birthday! Two questions: What shoes were you wearing and were you running in Los Peñasquitos Canyon?
Oh and congrats on the ultra!
I was running with Altra Superior 4s in LPQ (for the first half) - good eye!
Hiking Nerd I’ve been mountain biking in that canyon and Tunnels for years now!
Third Question, were you cycling on the 56 bike path Saturday evening? I was running and I thought I had run past you, wasn’t 100% sure
Must’ve been my evil twin. He escapes from time to time and it’s a real effort to chase him down. 😂
Hiking Nerd LOL! Happy trails dude, love your videos!
Awesome!!！Do know why there are two peoples gave thumbs down.
You should climb Mt Hood
Yesterday I was walking in Peñasquitos Canyon, made and turn past the waterfall, and I was thinking to myself, that guy in the Ultimate Direction hat standing in the shade really looks like the UA-cam-famous Hiking Nerd!
Small world!
🎉🎂🎈
