Racing for the Win - MOAB 240
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 апр 2024
- The Moab 240, a foot race that starts and finishes in Moab, Utah. This would be my longest race to date in terms of distance, but I'd hope it would be my fastest 200+ mile race as well. And as the race progressed, my aspirations continued to grow.

I think I'm going to watch this one while wearing my hydration vest, a handful of gels and about a litre of sunscreen on my face. Just to be on the safe side.
I am watching while removing Compeed from blisters and wondering if I am going to lose that black toenail again lol.
My husband wanted to watch the premiere with me and I said “careful, watching Jeff is a slippery slope to running ultras”
Wiser words never spoken 👍
Loooooong wau to go for 🙏🏻
Yep he got me already
@@BenNiland he was definitely a contributing factor for me as well 😂
I'll be cursing his name on the UTMB course later this year hahahaha
This is the benchmark in documenting a single person’s long-distance run. The bar is sitting quite high now. Thanks for all the hard work!
The Barkley marathon one is really good too. “Where dreams go to die “
Without any exaggeration: this is a masterpiece in cinematography and storytelling. And a real nailbiter in the end. Thanks, Jeff!
You are so Right 😊
Even the music was on point in this vid. Well-paced storytelling and an amazing effort to cross the finish line in second place. Thoroughly enjoyed! ❤
"Why did he try to win??" 😂😂
Probably your best film yet. Outstanding all around. Congrats Jeff! I'm so thankful for all you share with us.
That line was pure gold
What amazed me the most about this race was that you were working so hard to catch Jesse at the end, but you kept filming. To divert any energy like that at the end of such a hard race and when you were so close, it really shows your dedication to your craft. You are truly admirable! And what a great job Audree does also!
Two life lessons here. You're stronger than you think you are. Surround yourself with people who love you.
🙏💯
So true.
Ultra racing meets formula 1! Thank you Jeff and Audrée. Your adventures are inspiring and so very generous, how you edit to include so many remarkable people from the community. Congrats on this amazing achievement.
But if you can do it with no help, that would mean your stronger than everybody.
Best part of ultra running is that everyone is a winner. 😊
Yet it must be so underwhelming crossing the finish and there are like 4 people clapping. Definitely not a spectator sport.
All of a sudden, marathons seem so mundane....😂
Pacer: "I was only in it for 30 miles."
Me: "OMG!!!"
And then he decided to run another 30 just cause
Don’t know if this dude is a great filmmaker who runs or a runner who makes great films!
Same thing thay was going through my mind watching this
haha so well said !!! both are great indeed!
I think he's both
The thing is Jeff looks alive as if he could go another 50 others look in pain. What a Incredible achievement not only 1st 2nd or 3rd every single person who is crazy enough to even book a distance so great congratulations Jeff your work is on another level 👏
"B*tched in a forward direction" 🤣New favourite mantra for (and summary of) ultras.
Great film, amazing to see everything that went into it behind the scenes as always, including all of the help from Audree and the pacers. Congrats on an amazing performance Jeff!
"It's good to finally meet you" best line
Can we get a thumbs up for Audrey?
You make ultras look so easy. What a spectacular place to run. How do you resist stopping for such beauty. Only just started running again after loss of my husband of 55 yrs. Helps to improve my everyday daily mood elevation and I feel so much stronger. Watching the joy you have for running elevates my spirits
Hey, just had to reply as I started running after several years of really bad mental health after the death of my partner. It's helped me so much too. It gives me hope and even moments of gratitude & joy I never thought I would feel again, and most of all it gives me the space I need to just exist - whether that involves processing thoughts/emotions or just emptying my mind and running. Being in nature is so healing too. I hope you are doing well, sending love from the UK and happy running ❤️❤️❤️
@@r-pupz7032 I appreciate you thank u so much
I will prepare my TV and treadmill in front of it. I will join your MOAB race, Jeff.
I am not familiar, until now, with these incredible races and what stopped me in my tracks was the phrase, “the hallucinations have started earlier than in the past”. Badass people and their teams! The documentary was compelling and inspiring!
I was crying happy tears and hollering for first, that was amazing determination. Be proud. Your wife and crew rocks
You know it’s some amazing storytelling and cinematography when your seven year old wanders in and ends up sitting down to watch the last 3/4 of this! 🤣👌
Our target audience! Gotta start them young ;)
Wow , Best movie of 2024 by 240 miles ❤ hollywood watch out for those Acadamy Awards.. jeff pelettier for Best director .. Best videographer ., cinematography deserves an OSCAR ...and jeff for Best Sportsperson of the Year ... outstanding work and your family / crew .. great job everyone ❤ .. absolutely smashed that 😊😊
I vote for sure❤
Epic storytelling and epic Moab 240 Jeff! I can’t imagine the effort that it takes to push that hard for so long. Your crew and pacers were awesome as well. What sacrifice they gave to support you. I’m sure you’re super grateful for such support.
I got all teared up with Audreys reactions towards the end, wow!
I'm not used to use the comment section, but this achievement deserves it! I've been following you for some time now, and you not only achieve 2nd place in Moab 240 but also made the best film possible out of it. You are really full of surprises. Keep up the outstanding work and vibes :)
So fantastic to see how the race played out. Amazing cinematography and storytelling. Thank you for sharing your experience and for taking us along with you. And now to share it with everyone I know.
AHHHHH BABY!! I think it says something about me (or your film making Jeff) but I've been looking forward to this more than any movie premier. This is going to be epic! Thanks so much for all you give to this awesome community!
Ditto. Was waiting for it to drop and planned to have no distractions: was worth it!
Oh lord... where to begin. Been looking forward to this movie ever since the race and it did NOT dissapoint. Top tier production, had goose bumps from start until the race was on where it switched to adrenaline. Despite knowing the outcome, it was so emotional. Seeing Audrey made me crack as well. Congrats Jeff to an amazing finish and a big thanks for all the effort you put in to this movie, it's second to none.
That was absolutely incredible in all respects and when Audree started to cry the emotional factor went way up. Congratulations on an amazing run and a spectacular film!
Nice to see a fellow Canadian producing some top quality content like this.
Outstanding! This is truly inspirational and a beautifully crafted film, Jeff. Congratulations to you and your team.
They day you stop filiming while running, you will start winning. But then again, we wouldnt have a Masterpiece like this. Thankyou for sacrificing your first place so we can get inspire through this images!
Thanks to RUclips recently recommending trail running clips for the Barkley, I’ve been watching several from the comfort of my couch and getting inspired to hit the gym. This is terrific, brilliant footage, great editing and incredible result. Truly inspiring stuff 🫡🫡
Thanks for bringing us on your trip. One of the best ultra docu's I've seen!
Just incredible Jeff! The racing, your composure, the videography. Awesome.
What an excellent race documentary. I was not sure I wanted to watch over an hour of a RUclips movie, but it is extremely well put together and worth the time. Well done!
I found myself just smiling watching the last minutes of this video. The intensity at the end was fantastic. I loved every minute, you're an inspiration Jeff!
Jeff, my favourite journey yet. Amazing to witness how strong you were closing and Audree’s feels were contagious. An all-timer 🙌🏼
Epic. Jeff and Derek, incredible footage and awesome storytelling.
So beautiful and inspiring.. Jeff and Audree are the best team. Please keep sharing your epic adventures with us.
Somebody pass the tissues!! I knew the result and the finish-line still got me!
Congrats on an amazing race and awesome film! One of your best so far I reckon!!
Running my first ultra the coming Saturday. Perfect timing for some inspiration!
Awesome film Jeff. I like this format. How proud you must be for both the run and producing such quality work. It was cool too for me to see my old stomping grounds from 25 years back. Cheers from Norway 🇳🇴.
What a show! I remember following you the whole way!
I have watched this video now a few times and each time I say I'm going to comment but I just don't have words. This is the greatest running video and feat I have ever seen. What encapsulates this video for me is when Jesse came across the finish and said "Why did he do that, why did he try to win" LOL. You absolutely rocked it out there and the film making was epic. Because of this video I'm actually taking the family down to Moab (among other places) this summer and I have to run a few of these trails myself. Epic - epic. Thank you for this!
Amazing, Jeff! You’re one of the people that inspired me to become an Ultra runner! You are an amazing inspiration! I hope to share the trail with you one day. Wasatch 100 here I come. Thank you for all the heart warming moments.
Have a great race!
@@JeffPelletier My second 100 miler, in my home state, going to draw on your power in hard moments! THANK YOU!
Wow what an outstanding race, well done Jeff! Audrey was superb also, great team. This is one of THE best trail running videos and channels out there, production value is second to none.
This is SOO well done. Great job by Aubrey and Jeff putting it together. And the running performance was pretty stellar :-)
Great job telling the story of the race! Loved the drone and time lapse shots. Congratulations!
Incredible storytelling as always Jeff, loved the collaboration between you and your fellow competitors during stretches of the race. That's what makes this sport of ours so special 🩷
This was SO worth the wait!! Thank you for sharing your adventure yet. I was hooked watching it live and this gave even more context!
Your casual description of hallucinations was pretty funny. Like, just a matter of fact, the leaves have faces and I’m hearing voices. No big deal 😂
A really great, and inspiring, watch - as always l!
Oh my word Jeff! What an adventure! Congratulations on your epic race and 2nd place finish - so inspired by you and hats off to Audrey and your crew 🤩
What an epic race - amazing work Jeff! This was such an incredible film. I’ve been so excited waiting for this to drop. I only recently discovered your channel and your films have been getting me through my recovery from knee surgery for the last 6 weeks (having not run for over 1 year). I love how you not only capture the spirit of the race / course but embrace the community as well. A huge thank you to you and Audrée.
Absolutely epic!!! so inspiring and moving... incredible job of filming, talking, sharing your race with us all while out on a "little" 240 miles loop and racing for the win. You made me feel hot, tired, hungry energised, I hallucinated with you, I smiled and cried with Audrée. Incredible film. I am going to recup and I already know I will be watching it again in a few days. Only regret, not having been able to watch it with the trail community at your Première, it must have been incredible. Congrats to Audrée for her incredible crewing!!!
Wow, what a performance Jeff! And what a beautiful race. Well done. And a big shoutout to Audree and the rest of the support team. You made him fly 👏🏻
Thanks for taking us along for such an epic adventure!! It was a truly amazing performance!! Congratulations and great prep/planning/execution!!
Absolutely amazing! Not just your accomplishment but the way you put the film together. Thank you!
Super awesome race! That was an epic end! Well done! Can’t believe you managed to get this result AND kept up with your own vlogging too. 👏
Jeff and Sally.. ugh. Life is good.🇨🇦❤️🙏
like a lot of us geeky running geezers, my wife and I can't wait - !!
And congrats on crossing into such uncharted territory... My experience of the podium is being 3rd out of 4 in the 60+ age group at our local mountain 10K.
But - - most importantly - - I'm still dreamin' !!
Incredible race and such an impressive video! The cinematography and storytelling were the best I’ve ever seen and I’ve seen them all! Well done! Super inspiring! I love Audrey’s emotional response to your second place finish! You two are a great team!
Congratulations, Jeff!! Just wanted to thank you for inspiring me to start my trail running journey at 38 years after seeing your UTMB film. I also started filming my runs with my dog and the races I do, and it's all thanks to you. So thank you for giving me this new life 🙏
The stretch right before Needles, when the sun was rising and you were running by yourself in that drone shot with that song choice🥺. Omg what a film!!! We're always rooting for you. My mom loved you in Georgia and was very concerned with the dogs. And now everytime she sees you on the screen she says "oh he should watch out for dogs!!" You're so strong! Can't wait to see what you have for 2024.
Fantastic production and effort put into this one Jeff and team! Outputting class performance while documenting it is no easy feat!
Holy guacamole...several; minutes in and I was on the edge of my seat...what an amazing endeavor and accomplishment for everyone involved...congratulations! I will be watching this video many more times.
This is unreal! Your effort, the visuals, the hard work behind this whole doc, it's all very inspiring! Love from a local FV fan!
240 is the new 100. 100 is like just the warmup, nowadays.
Best film you have made so far. So well edited. Smooth as silk. Congratulations on your placing. Can't wait to see your next adventure.
It was so awesome to see this live in person!
What an amazing race and fantastic video production. This was well worth the wait. The tight finish and seeing Audree really getting emotional really got me in the feels..
So incredible Jeff!!! Congratulations!! And huge thumbs up to Audree, everyone in your crew, and the cinematographer!!
So technical, and so tactical. Loved every minute of this video!
Great film and documentation of this event. It definitely felt like you leant on all you'd learned from previous races for your race plan. You never really looked like you were struggling. Although im sure you were! The quality of the film was also excellent. Just finished watching your chat with Jesse. What a great compliment to this film. Thanks for sharing. A sidenote: its partly because of your videos that i've signed up for my first 50km event this summer. So thanks for the stoke!!!
What a showcase of your experience, Jeff! Long time viewer of your videos. Now I’m motivated to beat my sister in a 10k in June 😂
This week in Sintra Lisboa Portugal Pena Palace I met a Family from Canada and I realised she was a trail runner and I told her that I'm also a 50yr trail runner that travelled to África last century😊 and Adventures to Picos Europa Astúrias also Pyrennes Catalonya Nacional Park and that I love your videos and she said I'm so glad that you know that inspiring couple and Comunity like Billy Yang ,stories Audree courses as well crew Pacers etc... Thanks to all of You ❤MASTERPIECE ...More than 20yrs ago I met a 75yr couple her name Margaret & Michael and we did a hiking week all around Sintra area westernmost point of Europe Mainland amazing trails they loved so much that they came again ! They were so humble and taught me a lot how to get older wise and fit...Jeff&Audree you make me Remembering them to me ❤ Obrigado 🙏
46 mins in and it’s already one of my favorite running films. Well put together man. So inspiring
Freaking wild race, man! Was cool to see you and Jesse race it to the wire!
Bravo Jeff! C’est incroyable ce que tu as accomplie. Et le sprint de la fin pour la première place!?😮💪🏼 Toi et Audrey faites un team de 🔥 C’est un magnifique compte rendu ce video, j’ai pleuré moi aussi à la fin. Merci 🙏🏼 pour ce partage et l’inspiration que cela apporte , je ne me pretend pas à un UT run 100M mais définitivement motivé à voir où sont mes propres limites. Bon repos 🏆💐🌺🌸
Great video, Jeff! Thank you for taking us on your journey. Truly impressed and appreciated.
What a cracking film Jeff, I love your calm approach to racing, I’ve learnt so much by watching your films over the years. Your an inspiration mate well done 👏🏼
Thank you so much to you Jeff and your great team for taking the time during this long and arduous race to document it for us to experience it you and your teams. You always motivate us to go out any explore this beautiful world on our feet. Forever grateful.
Already watch it twice already. EPIC FILM AND EPIC RACE
It made my cry. Too much emotions. Congratulations!!!!
Congratulations Jeff! What an accomplishment. You are so lucky to have Andréa as your co-pilot. Can’t wait watch what you do this year. 🙌🏼
This is the kind of content I come to RUclips for. Thanks man 👌
Crazy. Not even sweating is nuts. I don’t understand how. Awesome video
Well done Jeff !!!! What a race !!! Last miles, so emotional !!!! You did it !!!! Well done✌🏻 Top man !!!!
CONGRATULATIONS! I don’t know how you do it. You’re like a super human, filming and managed to finished strong. You’re an inspiration and your SO is such a wonderful supporter for you. Thank you for sharing and God bless!
So inspiring once again, after watching the Bob Graham Round and the Tour of Mount Blanc I can honestly say these are some of the best videos I've watched on RUclips. Congratulations, Jeff, on the 2nd place and the team for putting together such great content 👏
Dude, I was just thinking about you on my last long run and wondering when this was coming out. This is literally the most anticipated premiere video I've ever waited on. That was such a kickass race to follow. Thanks for sharing it, hey.
Possibly the most inspirational ultra video I have seen in years. I think I’m going to go register for a couple races after watching this! It’s all your fault Jeff! How exciting. I teared up as Andre was talking just before the finish. Thanks man!!!!
What a team! Such a brilliant effort all round, inspirational stuff as always. Loved it! ❤
This was great - so impressive. This race is way out of my league but since i live close it inspired me to volunteer for it since i am nearby so thank you, Jeff!
When I watch some amazing journeys, I realise how important is having an amazing partner in your life! Wow to both of you! Love both of you!
WOW!! Fantastic work!! Super congratulations to you, Jeff. Always kicking butt and having fun. Thanks for sharing. Felt like I was there the entire time. KUDOS!!!
Congratulations! ! You are so strong. Also congratulations to Audree she’s a great crew leader
🫡
I don't know how you do it, Jeff. You run a very, very, long race with winning pace and still film everything needed to tell a story? All of your videos are.always to notch videography and good story telling but this one is additionally exciting. I'd say this tops the list of best running films I've ever seen. And I've seen many :)
Amazing job, amazing run.
Well done Jeff! And wow the assistance from Audree, unbelievable, chapeau! Your preparation and structured approach clearly paid dividends here. Unfortunately, your beautiful cinematography has done nothing to reduce my longing to visit Moab.
Congrats, Jeff! Awesome support crew as well! Even though I already knew the results beforehand, I did not know it was a really close race. That tumble really was a game changer. Thank you for sharing your experience.
Wow... This movie made me cry, I'm from Annecy, France and Jeff has been a huge motivation for me. The most beautiful thing for me is the team work : the exhaustion from Audrey and her joy. It was a great moment, thank you two.
Great job Jeff. Beyond the physical feat, great film making! Kudos to Derrick for his footage! Kudos to you for the storytelling and the editing! Not easy to summarize such a huge adventure! And kudos to Audre for the logistical dimension, the organization required to set you up for success is huge! Bravo! That race was a celebration of all the hard work you have put in over the years! What’s next after such a high?!
You and Audreé are such an inspiration. Watching you run that dude down and saying you needed more miles was wild. You were in the zone!
Keep letting us be a part of your journey!
Jeff, you’re a beast! So happy for you. Great to see that you have surrounded yourself with an awesome support team. Audrey you rock! Until your next adventure….. believe and achieve!
What a gift! I'm blown away by the production value. Thank you.
