[@Aide71]

Me quedo maravillada de lo que acabo de ver … increíble video!! Transmites un poco de los bellos lugares que tiene mi país 🇲🇽

[@RyYoungOfficial]

So glad you liked it! Thank you for watching. And yes indeed, there are so many wonderful places throughout 🇲🇽! Such a beautiful country with many small, lesser known areas 🙏

[@luiszuniga5990]

Good video and welcome to Chihuahua México

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you so much. Chihuahua is such a wonderful place

I noticed that some raramuri natives completed a run from LA to Las Vegas. Reason why I'm here, I would love to run in that location.

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Oh wow, thanks for commenting with this. I wasn't aware of the LA to Las Vegas run but am going to look into it. Thank you! And thanks for stopping by the channel 🙏

Arizona Challenge was a 325 mile bicycle ride in central Arizona. I tried it 3 times and completed it twice in the mid 1970's. I ran a few marathons and at 165 lbs. 6 ft I decided the impact of my big frame was too hard on hips and back. I took up bike riding with friend Jim Elliott. Jim was the first person to ride 500 miles in non-stop. I supported him on the Race Across America in late 1970's.

Sounds like a journey, and some incredible experiences Lenny. That Arizona bike ride... where did it go through AZ? I recently learned of a 100 mile loop around the Tucson area I'm thinking of trying sometime soon. Thanks for sharing your adventures- inspirational and makes me dream of new challenges!-

[@luiszuniga5990]

Welcome forever

[@joshdobbs23]

This is exactly what I pictured in my head when reading Born to Run

[@RyYoungOfficial]

It's a must-run event if ever possible! Thanks for watching and for the feedback. Happy to hear it's what you'd pictured the race as!-

[@jameslavin40]

THANK YOU, WONDERFULLY DONE. I HAD THE PLEASURE TO MEET CABALLO BLANCO AT AT RACE AND RUN WITH SCOTT JUREK AND YES BORN TO RUN TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN MY LIFE SO THANK YOU SCOTT. NOW IN MY 57TH CONSECUTIVE YEAR OF RACING. JUST WISH I STILL HAD IT IT ME TO THIS RACE. THANK YOU FOR SHARING.

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you James for such a lovely comment. So great to hear the feedback, and to hear just a little about your journey. The experience in Urique is one that is so difficult to convey with words, pictures or even video... it's something I know we share and understand. 57 years of racing! Congrats and cheers to you. Truly incredible. Keep going my friend! Keep going. An inspiration for us all 💪

[@amysifuentes55]

Wow! What a beautiful experience.

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Absolutely was! An incredible experience all around. Thank you for taking the time to watch 🙏

[@smiley77777]

I stopped running my knee kept hurting, I read the book born to run, and Scott Jurek book eat and run. I never had issues running in the army. Watching this is motivating to run again but change workout routine like core exercises, hip and glute stretches. No more excuses. I got lucky and met Chris Mcdougall in Santa Cruz for a book meet and greet back in 2016. Love the video

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you for watching and for the incredibly kind compliment. Must have been a great moment meeting Chris. That's awesome... Sorry to hear about your knee. It sounds like with a bit of an altered workout routine maybe you can find what works for you now and find a way to press on, back into it. Different than before, but forward looking with strength, strteches and proper rest and recovery. You got this!

[@jesustorres1904]

Wow i'm from México and I know about this race because of You. Thanks

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Amazing! I love hearing that... Great to know my videos add some value. Thank you for letting me know!

[@elviraaguirre397]

Huy que bonito, que sentimiento le pusiste a tu carrera. So glad you enjoyed the run. Welcome ❤

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thanks for such a kind compliment my friend, and thank you for watching the video. It was an epic adventure! Thanks again for being here-

[@mixtecjaguar9824]

Long live the Tarahumara People!

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Absolutely!!

[@FamilyNonsense]

What a beautiful run

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Was such an incredible experience! Thank you for watching my friend 🙏

[@Rohilla313]

Well done Ryan! I live in Toronto but Mexico is my second home. We have a house in Gomez Palacio, Durango. I hope to make it to the Copper Canyons some day and participate in the run. Cheers!

[@RyYoungOfficial]

That's great! I've never been to Gomez Palacio, but have heard wonderful things about it. The Copper Canyons is def a must if you're ever able to make it happen. Wishing you all the best, and thank you for watching the video!-

[@juniorcastro1113]

Thank you for this video 😢 it’s beautiful

[@RyYoungOfficial]

I'm glad you like it! Thanks for taking the time to watch 🙂

[@RoseberrySt74]

I loved the book I have just moved to Australia and probably bought my 8th or 9th copy. I give them away to people who like running or get into it. If it’s not my favourite book it’s definitely in the top 3. I always re read it when I need to fall back in love with running. . .I’d love to get to the Copper Canyons one day please god. .☘️

[@RyYoungOfficial]

I love hearing this! I had a similar reaction when I first read the book. So much of it continues to resonate and inspire when I need it. Love that you give it away to budding runners. Such a great gift idea. And yes, yes, one day you must try getting to the Copper Canyons; it's truly a special place. Wishing you all the best!

[@Mrscolour64]

Well done 👍

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

[@Callum679]

Amazing work, well done!

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you so very much! I appreciate you watching and the kind compliment. Thanks!-

[@taniaplay9204]

Existe otra carrera que es en psrte de la sierra alta... y la vista es hermosa ahi mismo con los raramuris

[@anthonymeade7345]

That airport looks more like an abnormally wide road than an airport.

[@RyYoungOfficial]

lol. That's exactly what it is

[@MariaHernandez-tc9if]

Whats a nice esperience for thisman 😊😊😊

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you for watching! Yes it was quite a memorable experience, and one I've been thrilled to shared :)

[@anthonymeade7345]

If you're running for such a long time what happens if you have to poop?

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Always a good question... well... if there are no facilities and I'm out in the wild, I do what wild creatures do. Find a place out of the way, create a little hole, do my business and cover it up 😬🫣

[@rosaliaoliver-qv3gr]

How old is this VIDEO?

[@SuperBillybob53]

Beautiful Video. If been studying the original migration of people from Asia who came over The Bering Strait. I’m a native Californian. My retirement time has left me bored and finding new ways to entertain myself. 555 I’m raised in The San Francisco Bay Area and The Ohlone Indians have great history here. San Jose, California. I had seen a Genetic Chart of The Migration History and noticed my Grandmothers Heritage of being a Tarahumara Indigenous Peoples. I watched a Food Video and your Video. Out of interest to see the Landscape of where She came from. It was beautiful and fascinating. Full filling to watch your Video. Thank you for taking the time to share this. It’s very important to me. She has passed on. Many years ago, as I’m now 70 years old. She never talked much about Her Home of Chihuahua other than to say it was a difficult life and to Hell with it. She loved California. San Jose and Santa Clara Counties Fertile Valley.

[@RyYoungOfficial]

Thank you for watching, and for sharing so much about your ancestors, your mother and interests. I always find the migration of peoples interesting.. how and why do we settle where and when we settle in certain locations. It's fascinating to me. Sounds like you enjoy the research as well. So glad I was able to help illuminate the region your mother came from. It's a difficult life down there now; I can only imagine how much more so it must have been years ago. Thanks again for being here. I appreciate you-
