ALASKA + THE CROW PASS CROSSING | The Window Seat

Bringing back the series with a bang! Join me and my friends Evan Hone and Zach Miller as we venture up north to "the last frontier" in Anchorage/Seward/Eagle River, Alaska to race in the Crow Pass Crossing. A brutally technical 22-mile point-to-point race held every July that runs from Girdwood to the Nature Center in Eagle River.
After the race, we hit the road to the site of Mount Marathon in Seward, Alaska.

"The Billy Yang Memorial 5K"! That was hilarious! 😂 I'm glad you didn't die Billy!!!🤗❤

[@chadadams1127]

How in the world is this the first time seeing this ⁉️⁉️⁉️Love Billy & Zach!!!

[@algorerhyth]

Became a fan of Zach after watching a couple of your films... God Bless.

[@algorerhyth]

Nice that you were the impetus for Zach to run this race. ....... I always wondered about bathroom routines of elite runners.. Thanks for leaving that stuff in. The more TMI the better.

[@BenParkes]

Beautiful film making and story telling. No one does it better.. thanks Billy 🙌🏻

[@SS3213gsdf]

Hi ben

[@stephensweezey1422]

THAT’S why I miss Alaska every. Single. Day. Thanks Billy.

[@immuneraju]

Hey brother! Just finished first ever 50 kilometres race. I must say, big thank you for the best race advice you’ve given me “ don’t be an idiot in the first half of the race and don’t be a wimp in the next half”. Really awesome advice & helped me at crucial stages. Thank you so much Billy. And wonderful videos by the way.

[@jeffthomas912]

Love your stuff, Billy. Thanks for bringing us along for the ride!

[@martyjoe]

I love to see our great Alaska trails on film for all to see. I was also under-trained for the crow pass crossing but proudly finished. Thanks for bringing the big guns but I’m glad an Alaskan won. 🙂

[@brucewayne4019]

Ah Billy, another winner video. Thanks so much and congrats on completing. Alaska looked breathtaking.

[@JordanPike]

Props to you Billy for doing your thing and capturing these events. Clearly a lot of people really enjoy and appreciate it! And damn, 3h for 22 mile. Must have been extremely-brutally-technical! :P And what amazing scenery. This is why I'm drawn to trail running. Thanks Billy!

[@innerworkingsinspiration2561]

This was very good! One step away from actually being there. Thanks Billy!

[@tampabaypodcast2170]

Another awesome video. Thanks Billy!

[@mhenn9896]

[@tymckeown3489]

What a great watch totally inspiring once more Billy. Thank you

[@giff74]

The only thing that could make this channel better would be a few more videos every year. Keep up the great work!

[@hyzerfish6596]

Amazing. Love the mountain design on Evan’s windshield. Hard core.

[@AKtrailrunner]

Amazing video Billy, thank you for creating it! I love this trail, I try to run on it from the Eagle River side every time I get down to the coast.

[@BillyYang]

[@estebanrosas5103]

[@beeclimbing9954]

[@TheProductiveMama]

Yes 🙌🏼🙌🏼 grateful for my legs that carry me from one point to another! This was awesome! Thank you for sharing.

[@austinado16]

Oh man, great video, and excellent job capturing what it's really like in that part of Alaska. I grew up there, and ran Mt. Marathon as a "junior" back in '78 (way before there was ever a lottery). The rainy, cold summers. The broken car windshields. The dirt roads. The homes littered across the countryside. The fireweeds. Sunlit skies at night. And the fear of "real" bears. Yep.......you nailed it. That's Alaska!

[@imslade]

What a great video Billy. Laying here with my dog on Vashon Island... just getting back after it and love the motivation. Thanks. Mucho.

[@jeffkelley4055]

Billy this is so good. Cranked it up on the big speakers when the race started
