The Runner In Winter - Anton Krupicka

[peglegthered]

Love the music. It fits in perfectly!

[TheBoliCatt]

I lived in Boulder for a while...most beautiful place I've ever been and so many amazing people.

[faulkner24]

I want to run in the snow but my parents wont let me. Im young, a freshman in highschool, but ive been told im a really good runner for my age. My 5k time is 18:23 and my best mile is a 5:15 (i ran that last year in 8th grade). i need to run everyday to get ready for track but we are having a pretty bad winter :(

i love running so much!

[Whyyousuchadumbbutt]

@faulkner24 What I did in winter was do Jumping squats an Jump rope indoors.

I would also do sprint workouts in my yard.

They build explosiveness and will help with your mile time but not so much with your 5K.

[oldpiq]

@faulkner24 Breaks are OK too. If you love running, you will be fine. Tell your parents that if they won't let you run in the snow, you will start doing stuff ordinary high school kids do. That will scare them into letting you run. They should know that it is actually safer to run in the snow in terms of potential falling on one's face. More cushion. Just get good gripping shoes or a pair of these detachable spikes (whatever they're called).

[normanskiii]

extraordinary runner! 

[later6]

Does anyone know the name of the song used in the very beginning, and it seems is continued at 5:57? And also the name of the song at 3:50? Please, and thank you!

[emenius1sleepus]

@later6 The song at 3:50 is by Paper Bird and the song is Lost Boys. I was lucky enough to see them play in town after moving to Boulder.

[rwiebster]

@later6

Is it Denver? I can't find it either and its driving me nuts! Any help? Thanks!

[later6]

@rwiebster Are you talking bout the song? B/c if so it's "Scotland" by the Lumineers. Haha it was in the credits the whole time, but I failed to look.

[harry21868]

I've been a distance runner since 1968, and my second most memorrable run was Christmas morning in Ludllow, Vermont, in 1986. The thermometer read dead zero. There was no wind. It was strangely still. I did ten miles, finishing with my hat in one hand and gloves in the other. What a beautiful morning that was. Nothing could touch me. I could have run forever, but was getting hungry. .

[Ramir0FX]

He looks like Jesus

[tjanelightfoot]

@Ramir0FX Beautiful man

[whereskim89]

Winter running, running shoes? fffft! I use either police tactical boots soft enough sole, ankle support with ice and slippages

[L0stmusic]

Someone please reply

I just bought a Reebok Realflex and I was wondering is it good for daily miles and miles running?? and the colors have different prices does it affect the shoe of quality

[Outdoorsmanism]

Excellent video! My Kahtoola Microspikes just came in.. time to hit the high country of Olympic National Park! :)

[USA4thewin]

I do not believe that a camera man can catch up with Tony to take a video :)

[HenryT5]

All my friends, my wife and me run in Russian winter whole winter time 2 miles every morning. Snow 30 cm, frost -20 - it is not obstacle. Good luck!

[ThePsychicSasquatch]

It's the first time I've seen Tony wearing a shirt.

[SchMasHed]

I used to be a runner till I took an arrow in the knee

[soldierside365]

@SchMasHed

really?? this joke has had its day, take an arrow to the face.. get creative ffs

[SchMasHed]

@soldierside365 That's true old meme, but some of us cant run like we used to because of our knees. I figured it was actually one of the more relevant variations of the joke .

[TheVersatileWalrus]

350 likes no dislikes, that's saying something.

[UNClax09]

I ran a new PR after watching this video.

[RWordBeloitBSAAC]

Green Mountain!



[peppysamy1]

I want to run with him. He's such a nice guy. :-)

[billehman1]

Great job on the documentary. Can you tell me what camera(s) (GoPro?) you used and any other equipment, ie maybe a little steady cam? If not then great job on the moving shots.

[majoo142]

Its called "scotland" by the lumineers.

[zinahewitt972]

Any chance for someone posting the details of the song at the opening. ?

[Elantry]

After watching this at night I have trouble sleeping, I want to run so badly!

[whimsicalfuckery7]

anyone know the name and artist of the song at the beginning of this vid? please? in an endless search on youtube atm

[shaunanyi1990]

lol category of this video is set as Pets & Animals. anyway good and motivational video.

[oasisoasis21]

i wonder if he wears an compression amour underneath

[CYCLEUPHILL]

Anton is my main inspiration to keep running. He's such a cool dude. I'd love to run with him.

[weissgerbergasse]

Ah, this is what running feels like in my head. I can't wait to go running tomorrow. Yeah.

[Tokoroegao]

He is sooo light footed - just awesome.

[Aggie98bqn]

Cool video guys! Nice scenery and really cool tunes. Rock on Krupicka!

[scallstar805]

I bet Colorado saw an increase in residency after people saw this interview haha

[rapbroncosdogg]

I went running in the snow in Durango Co today. So peaceful in the mntns when it snows. I'm glad to see other people are crazy too.

[MiniMightyMan96]

anton krupicka is a BAMF

[SeePhillus]

Just realised he's probably got the MT110s on ^^

[leftwhit19]

as a baseball player, i rarely ran

but when my running friend showed me this four months ago, i started to run

probably the best part of my morning every morning

[D1joel]

This guy inspire my running but it stillhe never run in Canadian winter, still thatminimals running is great and like it but anton isn't cold in us like Quebec winter peace and run

[stefihuntalova]

@D1joel

Jsuis sure que tu peux le faire ... yen a plein qui le font, habille toi bien c'est tout, mais effectivement essai pas avec des souliers de type minimal.

[franmarder]

[festeringfigment]

[kenenisabekele23]

@franmarder Scotland by the Lumineers

[TheLinkMedic]

Anyone tell me what black top he's wearing, i'm trying to build my winter gear for the season, may as well copy this dude, he's got a beard that's all i need to know

[stefihuntalova]

@TheLinkMedic

The black top is probably NB Performance Fleece Pullover or the NB Emissive. Both around $ 50

[10redx]

Dude the music in this video is dreamy.

[JustinZ80Z]

DAm he the interviewer is so lucky, get's to befriend Anton Krupicka, and at the end like lets go running and they just go out and have fun. Thats cool.

[BanjaxedSociety]

Where can I get a shirt like his blue one? It looks awesome! Anyone help me out?

[iMaDeMoN2012]

I love how the camera man never complains!

[SuperKrazyKyle]

whats the opening song???

[WesternSlopeSixPack]

@SuperKrazyKyle It's "Scotland" by The Lumineers.

If you guys liked this, there's a cool movie called "Indulgence: 1000 Miles Under The Colorado Sky" that follows Anton Krupicka around as he runs and trains.

[SuperKrazyKyle]

@WesternSlopeSixPack thanks man

[festeringfigment]

@WesternSlopeSixPack hi, do you happen to no where i can watch the whole movie for indulgence, ive watched the trailer it looks great

[SeePhillus]

One of the reasons he is nimble here is like they said he has ran up there a fair few hundred times.

[aoaaie]

love the songs!



[Elkins2424]

he is so nimble in his movements, its like his feet know where the obstacles are miles before he gets too them. amazing.

[gettinguponthe1]

you should put a "dont try this at home" disclaimer in this video. i know i would eat it and die if i tried to run on a mountain like that.

[lollobojo]

How does he protect his feet and toes from the cold?

[cdmentor]

excellent quality ; really captures the pure runner;great job, thank you

[AnTianLeMing]

Tony is such an inspirational runner. I have total appreciation for his attitude about running.

[TheGreatAristo]

I didnt watch the whole video so not sure if he mentions it, but i wonder how he avoids ankle injuries with the snow covered rocks.

[touge242]

@TheGreatAristo snow is slippery, so your foot slides over rocks easily, you never roll the ankle enough in snow to injure it. Also the snow packs the gaps between rocks, so the trails are smoothed out. It is damn good ankle training though, come spring I always get braver on rocks between the

[spen1591]

@Nomandbushman

Actually they're they're the prototypes for the mt110, the new version of the mt101

[Nomadbushman]

anybody know what the red and black shoes are at 1:40?

[pklosow]

@Nomadbushman

New Balance MT100

[nickdubya1215]

This is precisely what I needed at a time such as this, with the sickness of winter weather dragging my running down. I can't wait to get into the ultra game after college and hopefully take up residence in Boulder.

Thanks, sincerely.
