 Almost at two hours, I haven't looked at my watch the whole run as far as mileage, I'm just going by feel, totally by feel, you know, I'm gonna guess I'm at about 13-ish and the goal is to go at least 15 today, maybe 16 or 17, just going by feel and right now, like just now in the last five minutes my legs are starting to say I'm a little tired, time for a little snack, out on the trails, a little bit more water, so anyway, that's just what we're doing out here, I'm back actually at the Black Bear Gate, I still can't believe that it's closed till July 31st, that's not gonna happen, sorry Jeff Coe, you're not gonna keep people out of here till July 31st, oh that's good, this is called a honey stinger waffle, shout out to my brother Joseph, he introduced me to these things, honey stinger, I think they're made up in Steamboat Springs, I do believe, yeah, Steamboat Springs, mm-hmm, let's go, 16 and a half miles, oh I can't even think right now in kilometers, let's see, 10k, 20k, let's just call it, let's call it 25, 26, 27k, let's just go there, let's go there, everybody outside the US, all right, felt good, back at the house we're gonna talk about the kit that I wear for filming, the daily vlog for all of you and break it down for you, I will just say though, didn't use the poles at all today and didn't use the drone at all today because as you can see, I'm obsessed with lighting, as a cinematographer I love good lighting and today it's just like, it's called washed out, when it's either, sometimes it's like so bright out it can be washed out or when it's this type of cloud just washed out, so therefore here in a few seconds I'm gonna show you some drone footage from this very location from two or three months ago, I was really really focused today on the trails on making sure that I didn't care what the pace was, didn't even really care how far I had run a little bit but like I wasn't looking at my watch but I was very very focused on my cadence, my foot strike and just making sure that my turnover was staying as frankly as fast as as I could in the conditions today, all right, see you at the house, gonna go get some grub, nothing like good grub and a hot tea after a long run, maybe a little vino, you know how I like vino, all right, good day, good day YouTube and listen all your comments are rolling in from yesterday's vlog where we talked about, what did we talk about, my brain's a little a little weary at the moment, we talked about, oh yeah the running shoes and yes giving you all running shoes once we hit 10,000 subscribers which frankly I have a good feeling it's gonna happen quicker than we expect, okay, see you at the house, actually enjoy the aerial footage, I was going well I'm on my way home I was wondering if you could start the tea kettle in like five minutes, oh yeah because it's like it's kind of cold out and nothing like a nice hot tea, oh butter my bread, that's what I'm talking about, pizza's for dinner on youth you just you just toss them in whenever, I'll be home in like 15, 20, 15, 20 minutes, okay and it did turn out to be 25 kilometers just over 25 kilometers 16 miles so solid day up there 3,100 feet of vertical gain 1,000 meters a little under 1,000 meters we will take it okay we're gonna get to the kit in one minute but first I gotta tell a little story I am beyond impressed with the diversity of running backgrounds that are here on this channel this is not a trail running daily vlog this is not a marathon training daily vlog this is not a track running and I just I'm blown away by the diversity of backgrounds and disciplines within running that I am seeing in the comments on Strava on Demor global running like I can tell there's a lot of different types of training happening out there for example I can see that there's some high schoolers out there that are getting ready for track season and it looks like you're slowly starting to get a few workouts under your belt which is exciting but I want to speak real quickly to all the high schoolers out there and I guess early college students like freshman sophomore when I was going from my freshman to my sophomore year of college I was attempting to walk on to the University of Colorado cross-country team and I knew that I needed to bump my mileage up a little bit so I went out and I ran in Buna Vista Colorado at 8,000 feet above sea level I ran I think it turned out to be about 22-23 miles definitely the longest I ever I had ever run I think it was I knowing now it was probably about 25 maybe 3,000 feet of vertical it was a lot and guess what guess what I did not I hold I did not carry a kit or a vest frankly this would have been about 2005 did vests even exist in 2005 I don't maybe camel back remember camel back everybody so I tell that story because high school runners out there college runners believe it or not there is an entire genre of running that exists in the world that focuses on long long distance running and I didn't I didn't even know about it when I was in college so I'm just trying to shed a little light on it to all of you and what does it mean it means you need to hydrate and I I I didn't I wasn't about to die but I was about to uh I don't want to say even blackout but I was really really in bad shape and like I didn't carry any water there was no streams I just went out running I did you know it's like in high school you just go run and this was a I guess I was early in college but it was it was way too long to go out there in the summer with no water I just I what I just went for it I just went for it I tend to do that sometimes so with that said be careful high schoolers be careful college students and yes there are these things in the running world called in Europe I often hear them called a kit so like you have your kit of running gear meaning all like everything that is in this vest would be considered an entire kit and for me I want to focus specifically on breaking down and what you're going to see on your screen right now I'm laying out all of the gear that I carried today I'm actually going to go inside and I'm going to weigh it because I I actually don't even know how much all this stuff weighs but I'm getting a lot of emails and a lot of comments about how the heck do I film all of these running vlogs well you gotta have a vest and what type of vest is this this is a raid light vest a raid light raid light is a French company a French company and I frankly this is not your lightest vest out there on the market by any means but I tell you what and the fabric is a little it's a little rough a little you get used to it it doesn't give you uh like wrote like rashes or anything like that but it's not as soft or supple as maybe like a Nathan or a Solomon um but I tell you what I nailed it I bought this vest before the run rabbit run 100 last summer and the storage in this thing is perfect for filming the daily runs for all of you and as you can see on your screen like it just has pockets upon pockets upon pockets and I love it I can fit the drone in there which I didn't even use today uh you can fit I fit the GoPro in here with a gimbal and listen every day when I go out running I have to ask myself okay how much weight do I want to carry today and listen when I'm getting ready for the marathon I'm gonna rock I'm gonna rock some tempo runs you better you watch out I'm gonna throw on those Nike 30 peg 35 turbos and I'm gonna do some pretty serious tempo runs I will not be carrying a vest I won't carry a GoPro and yes I'll have to figure out a way to go back and get some footage afterward because when I'm running fast like you gotta be lightweight and you just gotta boom you just gotta focus and go for it and this is the three liter model from Raidlight three liters so it can carry quite a bit and even poles like that's one of the reasons why even though I ended up not using these poles in the 100 mile race because you're not allowed and I didn't know that but I have these leaky poles love these things for crazy off-trailed terrain and I will be giving you a full review of these poles very very soon stay tuned for that and I realize actually I have never given a full review of this vest so that'll be coming soon as well for all the trail running enthusiasts out there the ultra runners I know you're out there so anyway today I had the bladder I had about a half a liter of water so not too much it's amazing isn't it amazing how much more water we drink on our long runs in the summertime compared to the winter I should probably drink more but I knew I know myself pretty well like a half a liter was perfect today given the temperatures and the cloud cover so half a liter of water in that bladder the drone the go let me just look here we had the go pro the gimbal and then this is the little stick the I don't want to call it a selvi stick but I'll call it a selvi stick that's okay that goes in the front here and then of course I had that honey stinger you saw me buying that food earlier today the honey stinger waffle I have the trash that's right leave no trace out there folks and then in addition this remote control which is a little bulky I'll be honest from DJI which flies the drone so I can get those pretty sweet aerial views for all of you when I'm out there exploring the beauty all right okay keyword today keyword is going to be kit that's right because this is my kit for filming the daily runs for all of you like this is the kit and you see it out there all laid out there this is how I do it folks this is how I do it so keyword again is kit and question of the day have you ever used a vest for running and if you have could you share like what brand do you use and why if you want to get into the model that would be amazing as well and just share because I'm actually I'm truly I'm very interested right now in Nathan and Solomon I've never owned either I would love to try Nathan or Solomon in 2019 for their vests I've used hold on I've used ultimate direction Raid light and yes now I'd love to try Nathan or Solomon and if you have not used a vest maybe you could share down in the comments if you'd be interested in like what how it could play into your training because like for example in the summertime if you don't have a team to give you water on a 15 mile long run like if you're if you're in college and you're getting ready for the cross country season you might need some water out there in the humid conditions and a vest might be good for you it might be good for you all right that is it for today thanks for being here learning a little bit about my kit for filming the runs for all of you oh what a day in the big bad wolves oh baby all right seek beauty work hard and love each other hmm and I think I got a little announcement for you tomorrow come back tomorrow I'll let you know what's going on see you tomorrow
