There is nothing better than hiking, running, and climbing in the mountains. I thank God every day for my health. So few people do this and can appreciate this. Great video :)
Great video. A couple of shots looked like Mt Diablo where I run. I've raced track, cross country and on the road and only started doing trail races in 2008. God I love it!
I was stuck in Athens, Greece for two weeks. Concrete dust, noise, smog. I'd watch this a couple of times a day, waiting for when I could run in the mountains again.
@touge242 That is true, especially here in California. However, I take December off from racing and don't do any big events between Nov-Feb. A little over a week before I start my 5 100-milers in 6 months. Woo hoo!!!
@thr3ee It's tougher out here in montana when the mountains get 6 feet of snow in the winter and I get stuck running only the popular trails that get compacted. Damn I love my mountains though.
@touge242 I'll be doing Bighorn as well. I did it 2 years ago on the altered course. I'm hoping to check out the normal route this year and give it a better time as I had to limp the last 5 miles last year after straining my Achilles. Great race. Absolutely beautiful!
I love it too!!! I watch it over and over and visualize myself running up and down mountains and across snow fields...I sooo want to do this! I had have a lot of training to do! Here I go! Thanks Matt for giving me the dream! See you at the finish line one of these years!
show, very good.

@touge242 Where Montana are you? I'm running the Swan Crest 100 in July.

@thr3ee Bozeman, it's south east in the state about 90 miles north of yellowstone.
Let me know how swancrest goes, I was thinking about it for next summer. I'm racing bighorn this june. Good luck with montana's first hundred!

Somehow this has become THE song that goes through my head on long runs. The tempo is just perfect for my stride rate.
