Good luck bro, the Silver Rush 50 is a fun and pretty fast race. I see you up at Rampart Reservoir quite a bit as I train up there too. Awesome place to train
Super excited to have found your channel here, I am also signed up for the Silver Rush 50 which will be my first ever ultra! I also live in Colorado Springs so it's super cool to see you running the same trails I do. Hope to see you around on training runs or on race day!
@UltraTrailSteven North Idaho. Melting fast this year, though, so fingers crossed, I'll be able to get out by the end of the month. Things didnt thaw until July last year so all things considered, I'm optimistic about the current situation. It's always a balance of fire and ice up here though, as last year's wildfire season was pretty tame.
@UltraTrailSteven I'll be there this year! Buddy talked me into it last December so baisically doing couch to 100k this year. Your channel has been one of the many valuable resources I've stumbled across as I navigate the whole other universe that is endurance running. Although I'm in my 30's, I have never felt healthier. I love how I can feel my body transforming at a rate that has far exceeded my expectations. Best of all, I'm showing my kids(3 and 5) how to do something hard.
@@loganfishbeard that’s awesome and so true! If you haven’t seen it, here’s my Beaverhead video The 2022 Beaverhead 100k Ultramarathon | Beauty on the divide ua-cam.com/video/oI7zHdqbuYc/v-deo.html
Moonlight run with lighting in the distance sounds amazing!!! Thank you for sharing your training plan with us. This is the kind of info and details I need to help with my goals. I saw you were wearing Sauconys on your Kineo trail run, which ones were they? Also, is Valan going to join you for any of those Leadville races?
The moonlight run was so nice! I will be sharing lots of specific workout details and more in this series. I think I mentioned in the video, but those were the Saucony Peregrine 13 ST's. Valan will be crew chief for the LT100; I wouldn't want to do it with out her there! The trail marathon and 50 miler I will be by myself.
Looking forward to the rest of the videos in this series. Good luck with all the training. That incline mini-loops challenge was not an easy one for sure!
@@UltraTrailSteven Not this year. My wife was good with me almost dying last year, but not this year... I guess that's a good sign, right? But I'll run LT100, and volunteer at the MTB instead.
Going through some of your older videos since you're currently injured. I noticed that your videos seemed to take a big step up in quality once you moved to CO. I found it funny that I commented this morning in your most recent video about riding a bike to maintain fitness if you're able to without aggravating the groin injury and in this video you said that you hated the bike.
I think some of the quality is just due to the fact that we are always improving, but having more sun and brighter trails definitely helps with GoPro footage. Thanks! I don’t mind the bike as much now (I bought a gravel bike since living here), but I’m pretty sure the bike saddle would be uncomfortable
I live in Colorado Springs as well. Let me know if you need a crew. Also, I have a friend who ran it last year. I can see if she can meetup sometime so you can pick her brain.
When you review the shoes, do you mind telling us if you have wide or narrow feet? It's hard sometimes to figure out if a pair of shoes would fit if the reviewer just said that they are wide/narrow without any additional details. Thanks!

Thanks man! I can’t wait for all the Leadville race!
Whoa. Congrats on getting in on the race … great stuff! I get my kids to stand on my legs - that’s my compression system 😂
Thanks, James! Haha that’s like a special kind of deep tissue massage! 😂
Great idea with the series. Keep up the good work. Those trails are amazing!
Thanks, Dan!
Let's go, man! See you in Leadville or out on the trails around here in COS. LT100!
Yessir! Let’s do it!!!!

Looking forward to the series. I am moving to Colorado Springs this summer, your videos are a great introduction to the trails.
Awesome! Where are you moving from? Thank you

That’s awesome, Shawn! See you on the trails and at SR50!

Thanks, Chad!
Amazing share new friend 🫶🔥🌻💫💙🔥🌻🫶💫💙
Thanks
No snow at 10k 😱Super jealous, There's still 3ft at 5k in my neck of the woods.
Snow for us is at about 12k right now. You must be in Tahoe area?

@@loganfishbeard oh gotcha. I ran the Beaverhead 100k in Idaho last July and there was still snow on the course.

Thank you, Theja! Yes you know first hand how difficult that mini-loops were. Great to meet you there as well.
Cool, see you in leadville. Are you doing Leadman?
No, my wife was ok with the 3 races, but that was the limit HAHA. Are you?
@@UltraTrailSteven Not this year. My wife was good with me almost dying last year, but not this year... I guess that's a good sign, right?
But I'll run LT100, and volunteer at the MTB instead.
@@runningwithsimon Guess she likes you.. HA. Well I will see you in Leadville!
Excited about following your training man. How many hours per week will you do on average? Greetings from the Netherlands.
It depends on the week. 8-12 hours probably. Thanks!

I’ve got a good crew lined up, but definitely up to pick a Leadville veterans brain!
Did you move to COS?
Yes, in December 2022.
When you review the shoes, do you mind telling us if you have wide or narrow feet? It's hard sometimes to figure out if a pair of shoes would fit if the reviewer just said that they are wide/narrow without any additional details. Thanks!
I generally mention in my shoe reviews that I have an averaged sized to slightly narrow foot. Good feedback tho, thanks!
