I love Kilian but I'm soooooo pleased Sage got 2nd place!!!....great video Seth......this is first pikes peak footage I've seen ...your the man Seth!!...🏃🏃x
Kilian won even though he prefers much more technical terrain. He's a mountain climber so smooth trails doesn't suit him. As for descending he's the best the sport has ever seen. Watching him run down super steep technical alpine terrain is unbelievable
Well idk about smooth trails not suiting him. Sure he's the best mountain runner on earth but he's won plenty of races with smoother trails like Western States etc.
I have been a volunteer with the announcer for several years. It was so fun to watch you cross the finish line on Saturday. I ran the triple crown series and the ascent in 2015 and I plan to do it again next year. The energy in the crowd when Maude finished was unbelievable. Thank you for another great video.
Really enjoyed this! What I loved the most about this is this guy knows trail running, he understands the requirements to film something like this. If I was watching some local with a camera trying to get a good view of the athletes I don't think I could watch that LOL but this guy knows the deal. Well done.
Just wanted to say how much I appreciate your videos. Glad I found this channel several weeks ago. It's not just the quality and content (although both are great!). I think your genuine enthusiasm and joy are inspiring and that's what keeps me coming back. I'm sure you have days that aren't like that, but your videos have kept my less-than-motivated days at a minimum. Great race at Pike's! Congrats! Keep up the good work!!!
Seth, you rock getting the BEST footage of this race on the mountain and at the finish! Thank you so much for "geeking out" like the rest of us would love to be able to do. Love your passion! Your videos are the BEST!!! Keep 'em coming! And great job on Saturday at the Ascent on Saturday, we were so happy for you and your family, you killed it!
Yes sir! I DID IT! After my DNF in 2016 and to finally to come back and finish at 7 hours and 35 minutes! I'm so proud! It was beautiful up there and cant wait to do it again! THANKS FOR ALL YOUR VIDEOS SETH! So great to meet you and your family man! Also CONGRATULATIONS on your 2nd place Ascent finish!
Hi Seth, thanks a million for this great vlog on the Pikes Peak Marathon! Wonderful footage especially since the live streaming was such a disappointment. And congrats again on your own amazing 2nd place at the Pikes Peak Ascent! My guess is that with the right training and support you could be a serious competitor to Kilian, Sage and all the others... you got it in you, man! Seek beauty, work hard and love each other! :-)
This little "ding" goes off. Notification that SJD vlog has dropped! The wife says "OOOOH YEAH" lmao. Thanks for doing what you do. Including introducing new, colorful and very distinctive verbiage into our lives!
Thank you for what may be your best race day coverage yet. Being out on the course, cheering the runners on, captures the true essence of the excitement and celebration of everyone's efforts and achievements. Congrats on your awesome 2nd place finish on the Ascent!
Hey, man. Thanks for being out there and cheering everyone else on while waiting on the front runners to get there and back. I remember seeing you on top of the rock around mile 4. Kilian went past in the opposite direction and the dude was the lightest I’ve ever seen on their feet during the downhill.
Great coverage, Seth!! I've run the Ascent three times in years past, but haven't been up for the race in recent years, so I've volunteered as a van driver.... its' cool driving up and down and up and down the Peak and talking with the racers of all abilities. So cool meeting you at the top!! You looked amazing and your energy right after crossing the finish line was nothing short of incredible. THEN, how cool was it to see you on the trail on Sunday???!! Thanks for all you do!!
Have not run either the accent or marathon but my wife and I have volunteered for then. My wife volunteered this year at packet pick up for the marathon and got to meet a lot of the elites including Killian, Remi, and Aritz. Also, she was at the top for the accent, she was working gear check and making sure everyone got their warm clothes. Love these vlogs Seth. I'm sure I just missed meeting you at the marathon, we were just at the start of the trail off Ruxton. Another time. Keep it up, you do an amazing job and I love the energy toy bring to these posts. "Seek beauty, work hard, and love each other"
Seth, great video as always! Your humbleness is inspiring. No doubt if you were racing the marathon yesterday that you would have been right up there with Kilian and Sage!!
this is epic Seth !! thanks so much for making this and getting it edited and uploaded so fast as always..Thanks from New Zealand..Kilian is such a beast !! so stoked for Sage too..And massive congrats to you for your 2nd place in the ascent !!
Thanks for filming out there today even after racing the day before! Great footage all round, really exciting race on both sides. Maude Mathys is definitely a beast, she destroyed the course record in similar fashion in early August at Sierre Zinal, another golden trail series race
The Ascent in 2002 was my first introduction to running races. I eventually ended up in long distance triathlon. Was at coaching conference over the weekend and was so pleased to learn that race was going on. I did my training run on the trail Saturday night between Ascent and Marathon. The Ascent was so incredible and emotional, I have always said that I left my heart on the top and I need to do the full to bring it back down! Maybe next year. Matt Carpenter was the first name in running I knew. He ran/won Ascent that year.
First Congrats on your race. Thanks for introducing me to this race and getting your viewers close to the marathon race. That is awesome to see footage of the marathon leaders, You are doing great job.Thanks again
Hey brother. Excellent coverage of the PPM and congrats on your amazing Ascent finish. I ran the Ascent with my daughter on Saturday...her first! We had an amazing race and were so blessed to run together and finish together. I also came back Sunday to run the Marathon for my 5th Pikes Peak Double in a row. It was an incredible weekend of running!
I’m just in awe after seeing this weekend’s racing! I know you are amazing and that Sage is too... you guys and all the runners are so inspiring on so many levels... thank you for your dedication to us and to the sport! GO MAUDE!
Didn’t race the Pikes Peak, but did race the Crim 10 Miler! I ran the 10 in 57:38, so I’m excited to see how my senior xc season unfolds. I also met Dathan Ritzenhein there!!
You had a great time up there twice in a row :), thank you for the effort and the great video m8. Cant wait to see you competing with does guys soon :)
Great video Seth 👍🏻 Superb 2nd place for Sage after a year with lesser results. Now 2nd good race in a row. Happy for him! Also really amazed about the high quality of the runners. Thanks for your work to share this race with us 😃👍🏻
First of all YOU ROCK HOMIE!!! Congrats on Pikes Peak! Just a question....do the runners know that you are going to run behind them to film??? I have always just wandered that. Thanks!
Ran the Ascent for third time Saturday with my bride running for 1st time. She beat her expected time by more than an hour! I had a hard day, with a complete electrolyte crash- #rookiemistake! Easily solved for next long/hard run! Love your channel!
Seth, I gotta ask...what's up with your microphone? I've noticed it before, but it's realllly bad in this video. I really do enjoy your videos, and of course you, but the sound quality is distracting.
Great race coverage today Seth! And I bet you're so tired, you didn't have a chance to recover, I never heard of her either Wow! she smashed the course record. Thanks Seth! For everything you do to give us great footage, Your the man.
great job on the video...it always amazes me when I see just how fast they do downhills..crazy fast and with a controlled recklessness....Congrats to Killian. Also big Congrats to you Seth on your race....job super well done.
Congrats on you Ascent race - awesome! And thanks for the marathon video-well done! Matt Carpenter is a fantastic guy. Need to interview or at least get him in vlog etc. I’ve run PPM 17 and 18 and always go to his ice cream shop and enjoy the fact he is so friendly and easy to approach and talk with. Imagine having a legend from any other sport make you a strawberry sundae !!! Love this sport and the community. Keep up the great work.
Yes, thank you! I don’t want someone who’s not even racing following along behind me on the trail. It’s one thing to shout words of encouragement from the sidelines but to have someone actually following me would be super irritating.
I've seen parts of this footage on Instagram... and wondered who filmed- great effort Seth .... shame we don't know is cadence and stride up those hills........... I learnt a lot from Killian's footage and dropped my pace down hills to help me on my uphills
Great work man! Thanks for the race footage. Also congrats on your 2nd place at the Ascent and big PR in the race - awesome seeing you out there!
Sage, we are all happy for you pal. Look forward to seeing you in Scotland!
Colab! 😎
Vo2maxProductions congratulations top race 🙌🏾🙌🏾
Congrats Sage! ✊✊
Congrats Sage! Awesome race!
I love Kilian but I'm soooooo pleased Sage got 2nd place!!!....great video Seth......this is first pikes peak footage I've seen ...your the man Seth!!...🏃🏃x

Well idk about smooth trails not suiting him. Sure he's the best mountain runner on earth but he's won plenty of races with smoother trails like Western States etc.
So great to see someone as fast/elite as yourself still get so stoked and hyped about seeing kilian running for the first time!
I have been a volunteer with the announcer for several years. It was so fun to watch you cross the finish line on Saturday. I ran the triple crown series and the ascent in 2015 and I plan to do it again next year. The energy in the crowd when Maude finished was unbelievable. Thank you for another great video.
Killian and Joseph Gray make mountain running look so easy!
Really enjoyed this! What I loved the most about this is this guy knows trail running, he understands the requirements to film something like this. If I was watching some local with a camera trying to get a good view of the athletes I don't think I could watch that LOL but this guy knows the deal. Well done.

At 6'45", the guy with Marc Lauenstein is Thibaud Baronian from salomon France
Seth, great job capturing everything. It was great hanging out with you and Stephen. It was a great day watching these guys and gals put on a show.
Nice real nice.....Killian was like butter...smooth-Sage was so determined to keep second. Good job to all! Thnx man....It was fun!
Great footage! Thanks so much! Not easy trying to chase after these folks after a 2nd place ascent finish just the day before! 😃
Yes sir! I DID IT! After my DNF in 2016 and to finally to come back and finish at 7 hours and 35 minutes! I'm so proud! It was beautiful up there and cant wait to do it again!

Dream Goals: to causally run up the mountain like Kilian. He looked so relaxed.
Thank you for what may be your best race day coverage yet. Being out on the course, cheering the runners on, captures the true essence of the excitement and celebration of everyone's efforts and achievements. Congrats on your awesome 2nd place finish on the Ascent!
Great stuff! Aren't you tired and sore haha. Thanks for working hard for us your audience
Man this is premium quality content mate absolutely loving it!!! Amazing work!
World class coverage, Seth! Thank you. You put this race on my radar.
Maude! That was fun to watch! Thanks for filming Seth. Hope you’ve had a good rest & recovery
Hey, man. Thanks for being out there and cheering everyone else on while waiting on the front runners to get there and back. I remember seeing you on top of the rock around mile 4.

that music as Kilian goes by on the uphill was sick and suited the visual perfectly.
yes ! Does anybody know the title and artist name of this song ? Thank you.
Seek Beauty
Work Hard &
Love Each Other
Thank you so much Seth !
26 years! I believe the only way Matt's record can be broken is to train on Pike Peak everyday! (just like Matt did)

Thanks for filming out there today even after racing the day before! Great footage all round, really exciting race on both sides. Maude Mathys is definitely a beast, she destroyed the course record in similar fashion in early August at Sierre Zinal, another golden trail series race
What a crazy race!
Another very nice and cool video 👏🏽
And congrats for your run 💪🏽🏆
(Love seeing swiss people in the podiums 🇨🇭❤️)

Great job. Love Pikes Peak. I used to live in Colorado Springs
Awesome coverage!!! Sage ran a SMART race! Too hot to take the record but Kilian will be back for sure.
This is the first I have seen of the Pikes Peak events. Great to follow your journey and see the event. Keep up the good work Seth! 👍
As always, great filming! Enjoyed this!
Hey brother. Excellent coverage of the PPM and congrats on your amazing Ascent finish.
I ran the Ascent with my daughter on Saturday...her first! We had an amazing race and were so blessed to run together and finish together. I also came back Sunday to run the Marathon for my 5th Pikes Peak Double in a row. It was an incredible weekend of running!

I learned of Pikes Peak footraces through you, Seth. Thanks! Every exciting.
First of all YOU ROCK HOMIE!!! Congrats on Pikes Peak! Just a question....do the runners know that you are going to run behind them to film??? I have always just wandered that. Thanks!

Great impressions, thank you so much!

You rock Adrian, thanks for watching all the way!
Great footage and amazing job getting it all together so quick. Thank you Seth!
Ran the Ascent for third time Saturday with my bride running for 1st time. She beat her expected time by more than an hour! I had a hard day, with a complete electrolyte crash- #rookiemistake! Easily solved for next long/hard run! Love your channel!
Wow the speed on the downhill is IN-SANE 😎 Nice work dude 👍
This was awesome! As a Virginia boy I don't have these awesome mountain races to go see these great runners in, I gotta get out to CO.
Thanks for this nice video Seth and congratulations for your race ! It's Thibaut Baronian at 6:45 of Salomon Team France and not Aritz Egea 😉
Seth, I gotta ask...what's up with your microphone? I've noticed it before, but it's realllly bad in this video. I really do enjoy your videos, and of course you, but the sound quality is distracting.
Brilliant!, thanks for bringing this to RUclips - I really enjoyed it.
Great race coverage today Seth! And I bet you're so tired, you didn't have a chance to recover, I never heard of her either Wow! she smashed the course record. Thanks Seth! For everything you do to give us great footage, Your the man.
Great vid! Amazing watching the different climb/descent running styles. Thanks for sharing.
Gonna salite you for still filming after your race, keep it up! Always love your daily vlogs!
Yeay Kilian!! ✊✊
Awesome awesome footage!! I know it was a sacrifice to do this the day after your race but it was much appreciated on my end 👍
great job on the video...it always amazes me when I see just how fast they do downhills..crazy fast and with a controlled recklessness....Congrats to Killian. Also big Congrats to you Seth on your race....job super well done.
Congrats on you Ascent race - awesome! And thanks for the marathon video-well done!
Matt Carpenter is a fantastic guy. Need to interview or at least get him in vlog etc.
I’ve run PPM 17 and 18 and always go to his ice cream shop and enjoy the fact he is so friendly and easy to approach and talk with. Imagine having a legend from any other sport make you a strawberry sundae !!! Love this sport and the community. Keep up the great work.
Love the perspective. I could feel their paces. Very cool.
......and then you go on to win in 2020👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
First time I heard about the PP races on your channel, amazing footage, thx for your hard running work, the beauty and the love for running
Great coverage Seth. Congrats to all the runners.
Great work filming a day after your epic race!
Congrats on your finish Seth! Great footage. Really cool seeing them run.
Great video!! love the passion you put on your narrations and the cheers to the runners. you have a new suscriber :)
Great coverage, Seth. Love your enthusiasm.! Thanks.
WOW......those guys were flying down the trail lol
Thank you Seth for the video! The "official" one / site was the worst ever, at last we get some images - and nice!
Yeah.....great job Seth!......go Sage!!!!!
Great coverage
Thanks for tuning in Joan!
Another great video👍 take it easy now Seth
Thank for great video Seth
Great job Seth! Looked like an amazing weekend. Inspiring!
Oh wow... great video, inspired to to try Pikes Peak someday!
Brilliant Vlog keep giving the world these so good to see how the best in the world run
Um, just subscribed to this channel. You are making some high quality stuff! You're going to have some SERIOUS success very soon.
Best running channel! -Seth James is Awesome! Sage is cheesy but I to love that he got 2nd!
I'd find it very irritating to have someone running behind me shouting! It would take me out of the zone.
Same here, at least don't Speak when you follow a runner.
Yes, thank you! I don’t want someone who’s not even racing following along behind me on the trail. It’s one thing to shout words of encouragement from the sidelines but to have someone actually following me would be super irritating.
I'd imagine these top of the world folks are accustom to people trailing them for a few hundred yards...
I've seen parts of this footage on Instagram... and wondered who filmed- great effort Seth .... shame we don't know is cadence and stride up those hills........... I learnt a lot from Killian's footage and dropped my pace down hills to help me on my uphills
