    I don't even think most people alive today can comprehend the scope of Courtney's achievements, you could mention it in conversation and people respond with stuff like "wow that's so cool" or "that's amazing, good for her" but they don't actually understand it because most people don't train like demons or run at all, or if they do it's like 5-10k a week so they literally have no concept of what Courtney has done, their brains can't understand the scale because they don't have any relatable reference point. This is why she is the greatest of all time in my opinion, to accomplish something so alien that the rest of us can't even understand.

    • @ankiefrankieful
      @ankiefrankieful 4 месяца назад +2

      Returning to this video after completing my first 100 miler this past weekend. You are absolutely right in saying that people cannot comprehend the scope of what she is doing. Finishing a 100 mile race for me was the most painful, mentally taxing thing I have ever done (and the race I did is in Illinois and happens to be one of the flattest ultras in the country😂)
      Courtney is an inspiration and her achievements are nothing short of legends.

If you ever need to convince a friend why they should try an ultra race, event or whatever just show them a documentary about Courtney and her outlooks on it and that friend will go right away for a trail run!

    Seriously so motivational! I am 18yrs old and I just accomplished the LT Heavy Half, I missed podium by 1, but that doesn't mean that I am stopping. I am going to continue to grow and become even stronger. Someday, I want to do the LT 100, not only to prove to myself and others, but for my dad. I know that this is what I want to do and he wants me to do. He's never finished it and I want to finish it for him. Not a lot of people understand the sport of Ultrarunning. Ultrarunning: when you need more f*** this sh*t in your life. Ultrarunning brings us companions, a team, a dream, a goal, and suffering. What would be even cooler is if I was youngest person, female to finish the LT 100. Ultrarunning is my way of coping with life, it's one of the only things that really keeps me alive. 🏃‍♀💪❤

      I raced against Courtney (well, we were in the same race) at the 2017 Pikes Peak Marathon, when she was still an unknown. Even back then, she immediately stood out from most other runners just in her relaxed running style and excellent pacing on her way to 2nd place. She’s an excellent roll model for all of us.
      Best of luck in your LT100 training!

So many people run 100 miles races every other month or week but to win all 3 of the most prestigious races ! Back to back and set records !!!!!!!!! and her humility and grace just so inspiring. Shes not like these other runners always blasting stuff in Instagram / social media . Her running does all the talking. So blessed to see Courtney doing what she was born to do ! And having a blast even when it's not so good. I love her hummingbird kitchen window. Love you Courtney !! ⛏️🤖🥞🇺🇸🎉
