    Baffled that this doesn’t have more views or recognition. This is everything I wanna see when covering an ultra. Super inspired and so far I’m only running 5ks. Bravo & thank you! 🙏🏼

      I run 5 to 10k 4-5 times a week. That’s enough for me. But these guys inspire me so much. Encourages me to push my boundaries just that little bit. When I don’t feel like running, it tells me: just make the effort. When I want to stop a speed run it tells me: push on, you can do it ❤

    Can you imagine having Courtney Dauwalter as your pacer? This race had some All-stars, both racing and participating peripherally. Beautiful race, makes me motivated to run that part of the country!

    A really good documentary! Sitting on my couch in freezing cold Europe, never been to the U.S. and yet absolutely getting the spirit of the event. The beautiful nature, the towns, the people, the motivation.
    Cocodona 250 might just have set foot in the back of my mind.

    Watched once, got all inspired and overdid it in the the mountains. Now I’m completely sore and my feet will never be the same again. You all are incredible beasts! As soon as I recover I’ll rewatch and repeat. 👍🏻

  • @David-xo5qq
    @David-xo5qq 3 года назад +39

    I love that it's so easy to root for these runners, whether the race leaders, middle of the pack, or back of the pack. They all seem like unique personalities in their own way, pushing themselves to the limit to achieve great things while still remaining humble and trying to find purpose and even enjoyment among all of that suffering.

    After watching this video I believe that this race will become one of the most popular ultra races in the U.S. I'm surprised no one had thought of it before since it runs through so many scenic and historic sites.

    Thank you for creating and sharing this well crafted video of a top-shelf event. What Peter Mortimer said right there at 34:53 "You definitely have to enjoy it." This is not about the pain-cave or suffer-fest. There will be highs and lows -- mostly highs -- it's all relative. Aravaipa is giving us the opportunity to take in 250+ miles of amazing Central Arizona trails and scenery with long sunny days, cool desert nights and loads of camaraderie with fellow runners/hikers, volunteers and pacers -- plus, the occasion to store away a raft of fantastic memories. I'm in for 2022 ... now to the planning and pouring over my retro notes from TC200. See y'all in May.
