Thanks for checking out our videos. The phrase "Run Steep Get High" was coined on a training run in Silveron, Colorado one of my favorite places in the world to run. We hope to inspire you to reach for that higher peak and goal in life by living "The Steep Life"!

I really like the thought of this kind of a last man standing event. Like that one guy mentioned us slow guys don't get to rest much at all in a regular Backyard Ultra style event, so this kind of levels the playing field a little. I've only done a single Backyard style event which was capped to 8 laps, I was among the last to come in every lap, but I finished all of the laps. It was an eye opener and confidence booster to see that a lot of the fitter, faster, better trained guys threw in the towel ahead of me. It made me think I am stronger mentally then I give myself credit for.

such an interesting & fun race! in 2020, i did the 1x1x24 challenge & when i finished, i was pretty exhausted. can't imagine running a mile every 15 minutes! well done

This is a really great idea. I should set one of these up at my old high school for a fundraiser. I'm an ultramarathon runner so I think I might be able to pull it off.

[@vieuxsage]

I think it is more challenging, as it leaves much less time to nap, eat, drop a deuce and so on.

[@myprivacy6924]

Thank you for posting this video. Don’t know why but I found this truly inspirational. Please continue with these great running videos. I’m starting to use your videos for my runs. Don’t know if I will ever get to where these runners are at due to my age and body type but I will continue to try. Thanks again for this video👍

Amazing! Cool race format, and amazing distances from all. Great video!

This looks like an absolute blast, I'd LOVE to try this... the atmosphere, outfits, and emphasis on stubbornness as opposed to speed... except... is that a PAVED loop? Definitely not doing it on pavement! 😆

[@TexasCountryLiving]

Some paved, some on gravel (decomposed granite).

[@runsteepgethigh]

Yeah it’s part paved and part dirt.

1 mile = 1,6 km. 15 minutes for 1,6 km means 9,4 min/km pace. That means walking.

[@runsteepgethigh]

Yes you can walk it.

[@tramsramsey]

Yeah, you can walk if you'd like but that means you'd literally have to keep walking with no breaks. If I were to run it, I'd want at least a couple minutes to stop moving the legs.

[@nrbeck1]

Hmmm. Hmm indeed. Let's see how I do at Backyard Oh next month... Hold my beer!

That guy seemed really rude and aggressive to me, perhaps a cultural thing? If someone was explaining something like that in my country others would ask 'what's his problem?'

I know this is an old post but I'm training for a similar last man standing event in Georgia. My preference is to alternate 1 minute of jogging and 1 minute of walking. This puts me at about a 12 minute mile which gives me 3 minutes to eat, drink, use the restroom, and rest.

Im always jealous of people who can run ultras. I have a skin condition that causes my hands and feet to never form calluses, so my feet are usually destroyed after 20 miles max.

[@jondoc7525]

Get that mole skin and figure out where it starts . Lotion is good too and superglue in emergencies

I DESPISE running, so this is just madness to me
