A Race for the Soul - Western States 100 Documentary - PBS KVIE

[@Sanko1960]

Very cool to watch this in 2024. Western States was magical before 2001, magical in 2001, and magical today. And it's all the amazing people, year after year, who put their hearts and souls into this race that makes it magical.

I have this video and since I no longer have a video player I haven't been able to watch this epic film. Thank you for making it available!

Amazing, human endurance! Thank you for posting.

This was awesome. Thanks for posting this. That Wild World Of Animals commentary and the National Geographic music and feel was just perfect!!! But man, that ending was heart wrenching.

Yeah, Gordie, your “life-giving” water also gives you Giardia (lamblia) which Birdman and I both got. But it did taste good.

All these cotton t-shirts 🙂

What a bunch of pu****s! Trail monitors, safety patrol, cables at river crossings, medevac, tables loaded with food and water, clear trail. When I did it in ‘79, the first 30miles to Robinson Flat was totally snow-covered and the only support you had was what you brought with you. I didn’t get an actual belt buckle but I was the first over-200 pounds and with a time of 28:40 got a plaque with a belt buckle on it.

Congrats on your participation plaque, your generation created the society that makes these safety protocols common and/or propped up the world of insurance and liability waivers. Either way, thanks for your comment. I hope I can brag about having done the race decades before the river dries up, but we can both take credit for that one.

Wow you're a tough guy. Thanks for sharing your story. Unsure why you feel the need to call people names. But I am sure the pioneers who blazed the trail would think the same of you in your fancy manufactured shoes and clothing. 😂

Why call these people names, times, have changed, for the better, who knows, you just sound like a bitter douchebag.
