[@MikeDeCaprio]

The smile at 9.42... perfect

[@stewthebassman]

Great film, Billy! You take what could be a simple job of reporting a race and turn it into a story. You're become a premiere storyteller in a sport that is growing rapidly in popularity. We will look back at your work with gratitude for its simplicity, honesty and attention to the details of each of the runners' stories. Well done, and thank you!

[@BillyYang]

Not worthy Stewart - thank you!

[@KatKeenSense10]

Nathaniel

[@bretjorgensen2496]

Damn yeah. I’ve been having trouble getting out these last couple weeks but this was the kind of motivation I need. Like good commentary on cycling or something this hella hits deep in the emotional part of running. Thanks.

[@jairobichaud6456]

Amazing! You outdid yourself, Billy. You do for the elites what Ginger does for the mid-packers - framing the experience through really great story and exceptional production. Thank you for making this!

[@rickcyclist5844]

Cool film, good music. Not egocentric. One for the ladies next?

[@CoreyLaGray]

This video was phenomenal.

[@JCNegri]

Go Sage 🙌🏼

[@ericyoahan]

Awesome job Billy. Love it. Good pace. a weird cut at 1:31 - 1:32. Great shot at 3:12. Did you try without dissolve at 7:25 ? Another awesome of shot of TimOlson at 9:38. Hope you won't mind my little criticism. I'm an editor, so i get a bit Nazi when it comes to technicalities. Again, i love the pace. Well edited. A little inconsistent with colorgrading at times, i guess that's because of different sources that you worked with. Love that earthy muddy color tone near the finish line. Looking forward to your next one. Thanks Billy for doing this. Thanks for showing runners like me who lives half the world away of what's it like there. Thank you.

[@BillyYang]

Thanks. Coloring is far from my strong suit. Working on it. Thanks for watching Eric.

[@saulu8640]

I loves these videos 👌

[@peanutrunnerjelly2002]

Would love to become an ultra-runner when I get older! All these thoughts were awesome to hear!

[@TomatoWong]

I press the like button as soon I notice its Billy Yang film ✌

[@marchills3074]

anyone know the name of track that was playing at the start of the race?

[@wahyutrisetiawan2736]

super cool!

[@nealarmstrong3050]

What is the song during the race? (starting around 3:46)

[@CasaBenny]

Go Sage.. I hope you win the western states 100 this year!

[@twicebob]

Great film, but next time give some love to Dakota Jones. He ran a heck of a race!

[@Dingelkorn]

beautiful!

[@haitianhendrix]

I LOVE THIS!

[@pblair12]

so good!

[@tripleMmagic]

I'd literally never heard of Tofol Castanyer until Zach Miller mentioned him from Madeira and now he's EVERYWHERE

[@marceloariasmassa7399]

Magic

[@Evendegard]

Great work Billy, loved it. What is the song you use in the start and at the end? :) Merry christmas!

[@BillyYang]

Even Ødegård send me an email to BillyYangFilms at Gmail.

[@ehongg]

***** Would love to know the name of this song too!

[@bridgetburley7673]

Why such a lack in coverage of any of the top ladies?

[@BillyYang]

I really wanted to, alas couldn't secure a quality 2nd camera person who wasn't already on an assignment there. As you can see in my Lake Sonoma and Sean O'Brien videos (not to mention my short film "Western Time") I really do like telling the complete story. Alas lack of another camera and lack of resources wouldn't allow for it.
