My First 100 Mile Ultra! (23k Vert) // UTE 100, La Sal Mountains, Moab, UT
I’ve been eyeing the UTE 100 ultra trail race for a couple years and leading up to it, running 100 miles seemed huge to me! Don’t get me wrong, running 100 miles is huge, but for me this seemed daunting because it’s my first 100 miler. So many unknowns, so much to concur. The UTE 100 is just over 100 miles of mountain trail racing with over 23000 ft of elevation gain. With such a daunting task and opportunity ahead, how did my first 100 mile ultra trail race go? Well, I will tell you that this is the most physically and mentally difficult thing I’ve done in my life, but it is also one of the most rewarding and memorable experiences.
@RevenantRunning Thanks for putting on a spectacular race...

Under Armour Ridge Trek Review // Overlooked Trail Runner-Hiker
They are ok for shorter distance up to about 50km, but there is something in the toe bumper that catches the top of my toes on the downhills so I don't use them, I prefer the pursuit.
I just got these, thanks for reviewing. Can’t wait to test
Congratulations on getting your first 100 done! It looked like a tough but beautiful course!
It certainly was tough but also beautiful! A wonderful experience amongst difficulties and triumphs.
is this a lesser known 100mile race?
I would say so. There are less than 100 participants between both the 100 and 50 milers. Despite it being lesser known, the race director does a great job and it's a worthy race.
@@SeeChadRun oh wow! It did look like there weren’t that many runners but that’s still surprising! No wonder they were able to give you a bunch of stats of how you did afterwards, and why they were grateful you chose them for your first 100.. now that I think about it, doing a race like theirs does seem like the most ideal for one’s effort on a first 100 compared to others like Leadville where you risk DNF from the strict cutoffs
@LexiaBoo Totally! This race had a 40 hour cutoff. Still, because of its difficulty, about 1/3rd of the 100 miles DNFed.
Congratulations, way to win the mental war !
In the moment it felt brutal but I'm super proud of the accomplishment. Would totally do it again!
have you seen this? ruclips.net/video/a3iZ1HSVs4g/видео.html I feel these women pack a ton in the vest and that convinced me to buy it! Also, I didn't know the flasks came with it, here in NL they don't unfortunately.
how about for walking ? any good
They would offer plenty of cushioning for walking. I ended up giving these to my father-in-law and he loves them for watching.
@@SeeChadRun thanks awesome looking for a comfortable shoe to walk in
Nice race-day video man. You're surrounded by good ppl
So many great volunteers, racers, and of course my family who was out there too! Appreciate you checking out the video!
😂😂
Congrats dude! Epic! Great film! Funny, I ran my last 100 in that same Path Projects shirt. It's a perfect layer!
Thank you so much! Yah, that Wadi LS hoodie is great. I enjoy wearing it even when I'm not running. Really appreciate you watching the video as well!
Great video and congratulations on the time - big improvement over your previous time. I’m actually running this on Saturday. Do you have any suggestions/tips?
Best of luck this Saturday! That's pretty exciting and it's an awesome race! My suggestions or tips would be to not underestimate the second climb between miles 14 to 18, save a little bit of energy for the downhill to the finish line, and enjoy all of the views! Wish I could run it this year but, I just finished a 100 mile ultra a week and a half ago (UTE 100 video is also on my channel right now!) ruclips.net/video/wUah95mbE1I/видео.htmlsi=oYik6luO9p1UD0f0
@@SeeChadRun Thank you, that is really helpful. I'll check out that UTE video. How much water did you carry? Did you ever run out between stations?
@stevecogswell7872 I only carried the two soft flasks on the hydration vest which was enough between aid stations. I didn't have to fill up between stations.
Fantastic! I found your channel via your interview on Buckle Up and you were talking about prep and training for this race, so it's so nice to have a window into the big day (and a half-ish). So inspiring, you dug deep and got it done. 🙌 Subbed for life. I'll keep checking in while I work on my own goals. Peace! 🤙
Fabulous! I'm glad you are here and happy that you enjoyed the video.
Mind if I ask what size your pack is? I just received mine and it feels big and I’m pretty chunky barrel chested runner. Trying to figure out how to adjust it
I wore size medium and have a 38" chest. I don't think I had to mess with the sizing much and it seemed to fit me perfectly. Sorry to hear you're having issues with the sizing.
@@SeeChadRun thank you.
Love my new pair! Lighter in weight than my Oboz SawtoothX.
Outstanding Chad congratulations man you should be proud of yourself. Nice to meet your family too. Enjoy the rest now!! Ian 🇬🇧
Thank you Ian! I'm super proud of this accomplishment and already wondering what the next 100 mile race will be.
Very similar to the compressport vest
Yes, thought the same.
The work you put to make it done, wow!! So good you got to see the family to add the extra boost and motivation to get you until the finish line. Amazing scenery. Congrats Chad!
I appreciate it! It was so good to have and see the family there. It was fun to see how excited the kids were to see me at various aid stations and to have my wife support me the way that she did makes her a superhero. Thanks for checking out the video!
Congrats Chad. Great job on this tough man ultra and your first! Also great video coverage!!
Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. It really is a pretty amazing (and tough) course.
Absolutely beautiful area!! Course looks amazing and awesome video!!! Way to go Chad!!!
Thank you Taylor! I appreciate the course and its beauty more because of the struggle and the triumph. As always, I appreciate you watching my videos!
Congrats on your first 100! A well earned buckle.
Thank you! I'm super proud of the accomplishment. I appreciate you for watching the video!
Fantastic job man!!! What a wild first 100mi, I couldn’t imagine! Also Revenant does such a great job administering these. Jordan is such a cool guy.
Thank you! Jordan is great 👍 And what an epic first 100 miler for sure. Thanks for watching the video!
The views on that course are unbelievable!! However, I was surprised at how few runners there were. Do you know why?
The location is a little remote. It's a few hours from any major city seeing that it's down near Moab. Beautiful course though!
Just watched, fantastic job! That looks like a beautiful but challenging course. Great work pushing through the lows - no regrets!
No regrets indeed! Thanks for watching the video!
Hi Chad!! Congrats on your finish!! I am doing this as my first 50 km race next month. Your course video is a great preview!! This is my first year trail/ultra running. I hope to do a little more running than power hiking on this course. Thank you for what you give to the community! Enjoy!
I'm so happy that you found this useful and I appreciate your comments! It's a great race for beginners and experienced trail runners. Good luck this year! I'm hoping to run the 50 miler next year.
Hi Chad! Curious about the sizing, how do they compare to salomons? or to the VJ ultra 2 if youved tried them?
These are similar, though just a tad wider compared to Salomon's.
@@SeeChadRun Thanks for the quick response!
Not for wide foot?
No, not ideal for wide feet.
Saw these again in your Ute 100 video today, tried some on tonight at REI but probably need a half size bigger and they don't have in stock. Felt pretty good though, think I might order a pair from REI online. You must have decided they were great shoes since you wore them for the ultra even after all the other shoes you've reviewed. Thanks for the review!
They are great shoes! I should mention that I did develop some blisters under the balls of my feet after 70 miles, but that could have happened in any pair of shoes. Otherwise, they were comfortable the entire race!
@@SeeChadRun if it takes 70 miles to reach the blisters I think I'll be good! Thanks again
Congratulations!! Didn't see you out there but it was my first 100 as well. Absolutely incredible course!
Congrats 🎉 What an epic and difficult course!
Thanks for the intel on this route!
It's an awesome race! If you're running it this year, best of luck to you!
Great run and finish! Congrats on never stopping and finishing strong! Thanks for sharing
Thank you! Definitely was a difficult race but I'm so happy that I did it. I appreciate your support!
Strong work!
Great job Chad! Tough one for your first hundred, way to push through and get it done. Scenery looks amazing!
Thank you! A tough race with absolutely beautiful scenery. I'm glad this one was my first despite its difficulties. Appreciate you for watching the video!
Congratulations, Chad! You got to experience the highs and lows of 100 miles! Question is, have you signed up for your next 100 yet? 😂
Haven't signed up for my next yet but I'm not against it. Already forgetting about the hard moments! 😆
You're crazy to run 100 miles. ❤
You're not the only person to tell me that! 😆
I love you anyway. @SeeChadRun
I like how Eric just randomly appears. ... And the girls told you to run.
@khsmiles as the night came on, I kind of forgot to record anything so there we were suddenly running together 🙂 The kids were so fun!
congratulations Chad on your first hundo! many more to come . hope to see you out there (on trails ) some day
My first and certainly not my last! Thanks for checking out the video!
I was going to order these, but rei had the MTN racer 3, but didn’t like the aggressive arch and toe spring. The person at the store says that the pursuit is a much better shoe than the racer but of course I couldn’t try one on so I was just curious if the arch and the front end feels about the same.
The arch and the toe area do feel very similar, although from what I recall, it seems that the Pursuit 2 had a slightly more aggressive arch but it's marginal. The insoles are slightly different and in the Pursuit 2 the insole is higher quality and doesn't retain water helping it to release water better.
Very impressive! I found you channel a handful of months ago and am loving it. I'm also a Colorado runner. I'm running my first ultra (trail 50k) in three weeks and I'm nervous as anything. My training has been good with all weeks over the past 2-3 months having 30 miles or more. This last month I've really been pushing it with 35-44 miles each week and 3-6kft of vert. I'll have a total mileage of 44 this week, including my 21 mile trail run planned tomorrow morning.
Sounds like you'll have a successful 50k! What race are you doing? I'm glad you found the channel and are enjoying it. It's fun to share journeys like this with everyone.
@@SeeChadRun I'm doing the Red Feather Trail Jamboree 50k. Yeah man, keep it up. Maybe I'll see you out running. I run mainly on the trails in Boulder County.
@Outdoors2theMax Red feathers is a great race! I have a video of the inaugural 50k that I ran a couple years back. I'm also planning to run the 50 miler next year. Best of luck and enjoy! ruclips.net/video/Ee8f1uV5U3I/видео.html
@@SeeChadRun I'll take a look, thanks!
Kudos Chad! Thanks for sharing these precious moments with us. I am curious to know what shoes you chose for that race?
I ran in the Topo MTN Racer 3 trail shoes. They actually worked great until about mile 70 when I developed a blister under the balls of my feet (first my right foot then later my left). Perhaps having a shoe with a little more underfoot protection would have been useful. Looking at the shoes after the run, I can tell the midsole took a beating but otherwise it's a great shoe!
Great job! I ran it this year too. Also my first 100. I got bad achilles tendon issues on mile 60, thanks to my footwear, which slowed me down a lot. Finished 15 minutes before the cutoff.
Regardless of when you finished, that's still an amazing accomplishment! Huge congrats!!! With the blisters that formed underneath the balls of my feet, I found it very difficult to run the downhill sections during the last 25 miles. Sorry to hear that you had some major footwear issues as well. Way to persevere!
Congrats Chad! That’s an epic accomplishment, especially with that much vert in your first 100. The fact that your brother ran an ultra just to help you is pretty epic too. It looked like a beautiful course. I’d love to run out there some time, just not for that far 😁
It was absolutely beautiful! And yes, so amazing of my brother to run so many miles with me and also to have the support of my family at a couple aid stations. They really helped lift my spirits. Appreciate you watching the video and for the comment and support!
Best type of review. On the fly!
Way to power through!
Thank you!
Just sat down to watch. What a great run! Congratulations on persevering and completing your first 100! It was fun seeing your family out there supporting you and giving you a boost when you needed it. The spectacular views had to have helped a bit. You continue to be an inspiration to many. I’m honored to have shared some trail time with you as you prepared for this race. Now wear that buckle and flaunt it when you can because you earned it! Well done!
Thank you David! It was uplifting to have my family out there.
What was your running kit in the video? I apologize. I thought you were curious what you’re running. In
I'm glad you asked! I was running in the Topo MTN Racer 3 trail shoes, T8 Sherpa shorts with their Commandos underwear, Path Projects Wadi LS hoodie, Black Diamond Distance 8 pack, Salomon carbon poles, and Ciele hat and Goodr OG sunglasses. All the gear worked great except next time I'll choose a shoe with just a little more underfoot protection (or rock plate).
Congratulations Chad ! What an adventure and interesting course. Reminds me a bit of a mix between Zion ultras and Tushar - really cool! And that first sunrise (or sunset, can't recall) wow! Hope you are recovering well!
Appreciate you watching the video! It was a pretty incredible journey for sure. I'm recovering quite well. My legs have never gotten very sore and my feet are recovering (first time really getting blisters during a race).
Excellent recap, Chad! Almost thou persuadest me to run an ultra…
Haha! 😂
Congratulations!!
Yeah! Thank you so much!!
@@SeeChadRun You're welcome, champ! 👍
30:30 - the best moment of any 100 mile video. When your wife hugged you, the emotion was so clear. Thank you for sharing that. Honestly not sure how you weren’t crying since I had tears in my eyes! 😁 Love the video, Chad. You are such a hero! Truly appreciate you and your energy. My mantra from now on will be a quote from this video: “Tomorrow I won’t regret not finishing.”
I nearly had tears in my eyes a few times at that moment and aid station. Really contemplated to drop but I'm so happy I didn't! Such a huge accomplishment that's hard to put into words and describe to others, I'm happy that I could share a part of that journey in this video. As always, thank you so much for your kind words!
Was coming to say the same thing. 30:30 is what I sent to my person saying thank you. Bawling to her plea to remind you what the past and future you wanted her to say in that moment. Thanks for sharing.
You picked a serious race for your first 100. Fantastic performance, Chad. You looked ready to drop before the end. Well done for powering through 💪🏃♂️
Thank you my friend! I thought about dropping but my family rallied around me and I'm so happy that I kept going. I even ran a couple miles and a few sections here and there during the last 10 miles!
What beautiful views! Thanks for sharing the race experience. Congrats on your race and the terrific support from your whole family. Very inspiring!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and it was my pleasure to share the experience. Words can't describe the experience so hopefully the video does better 🙂 Thanks for giving it a watch!
