 All right, 4 a.m. We've got our coffee time to rock and roll. Oh, man dirty 3050 K today This is a race up in the Rocky Mountains I think if I remember correctly think about 7 to 8,000 feet of vertical I'll confirm that for you here in a little bit. It's a really hard race so anyway, congrats if you race today, this is a behind-the-scenes vlog Lots of footage from the race, but I'm also going to make another video about basically a highlight reel of the entire day And it's going to be shorter a little more cinematic a little more beautiful So go check it out. It might not be published until later today But when I do publish it, it'll be a card that pops up upper right hand corner And it's just going to be some incredible beauty. I got my camera bag ready to rock and roll so Ryan is picking me up here in about 9 minutes, so I gotta go gotta go wait outside by the window. Come on All right, we made it to the start 50 K going so there's two waves at the dirty 3050 K the 7 a.m. And then the 8 a.m. So 7 a.m. Is about to start and it's time to rock and roll. All right. Come on. Come on 7 a.m. Wave is gone 8 a.m. Wave is gone. And yes in this 8 a.m. Wave. It's Competitive it's a good good prize purse. We'll talk about that later And I'm just excited to be out here because through this injury It's like it's hard. It's just hard to like not be able to run and just even jog at all So coming and connecting with the running family out here helps keep keep those spirits up All right, let's rock and roll I got to go all the way to the other end of the course via shuttles and My boot and hopefully I can make it there in time. Come on. Hi here. We are just met Brian Brian's a fan of the blog There we go, just we're just so we're just geeking out over camera gear waiting for the shuttle We know's why the curtains fly to catch the evening breeze Without you here to keep me warm believe I'd rather free Believe I'd rather free And how long can we walk that line between the sea and sand How long can we buy that time for dreams? We never For dreams we never play When the sky Said the winter time and you cry to see a shadow It's growing long Cross a lot Another song 8 station 3 the runners are crushing it. It's a little crazy getting around with all the shuttles But we're making it happen. I think I got the first place leader here at 8 station 3 But I'm about to move on to that. That's what I'm talking about. What a day at the dirty 3050 K I'm spent man. I am done. I am tired also crazy This is this is basically the first time I've gone through all of my camera batteries I'm on like the last bar of this battery. So I think we're gonna call it there. It was a beautiful day. Ah Score the new hat. Thank you Solomon Solomon is the main sponsor of this race. So anyway, congrats to all the runners beautiful day beautiful smiles true grit out there you guys crushed it and I'm gonna I'm gonna be back. I don't know when I'm gonna race it again, but I will race it again All right, I'm not gonna sign off quite yet, but I was I'm just whoo. I gotta go get some food Shootie. Oh, we made it back safely from the mountains. I'm realizing this hat is really big, but that's all right I still like it and okay for all the new folks on the channel right now Welcome and make sure you hit that subscribe button because I make videos like this all the time And I'm talking like every single day a new running blog That's what I do here on YouTube and I love it and I love making beautiful content for all of you I gotta keep this short because you can probably notice I lost my voice a little bit today screaming and yelling for all the runners It was just so amazing out there at the dirty 30 50k and yes dirty is gonna be the keyword So again for all the new folks we do a keyword every day and a question of the day so you can hit it up Down in the comments. So dirty is the keyword and question of the day Who's raised to 50k or who has aspirations to ever race of 50k? I know we've talked about this in the past, but I'm not and like listen like 50k Is different than 50 miler 100 miler 50k is fast like I know it's hard. It's it's elevation gain It's and oh, yeah, by the way, I looked it up It's this race today has 7200 feet of elevation gain and there is a 12 mile option So if you're interested in getting into ultra running, but you're not quite ready to make that plunge into a 30 mile distance Or 50k there is a 12 mile loop as well. That was all the people wearing a yellow bid today I do believe so anyway, that's the question of the day. I love you guys. Thanks for being here. Thanks for watching and yes a Cinematic recap beautiful highlight reel of all the footage today. We'll be publishing at some point today I don't know when it might be five o'clock. It might be tonight. I don't know. We'll see Did I already say see me work hard love each other
