DEAD LAST: The Yeti Trail Runners Movie

[@ianthevegantattooedultraru1113]

This is what running is about, Well Done to all that toed the line, sorry for the loss of your friend Amy, I enjoyed watching - Keep on Keeping on!!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Thank you! Even in grief a true running community will help carry one another

[@WestieDoodle]

Hey Mr Shelley! This is my kind of race! 🌱

[@motivationtheoryrunning]

Love this, I have heard of the group for years, but not yet made a race....this all makes sense, Jason is a VA boy, so am I...I got to get down there! The reason I started my YT channel was to help people, show them if I can do it, they can too, to motivate and inspire those who wonder if they can do it....My channel is the Yes to them. Great video and message!

[@TrailRunningZen]

There are also Yeti races in Damascus, VA so you don't even have to drive that far, check out yetitrailrunners.com ;)

[@motivationtheoryrunning]

@@TrailRunningZen finished my first Yeti 100 this year!

[@TrailRunningZen]

@@motivationtheoryrunning Yessss! I hope to run the Dam Yeti one day when I can get the stars to align,lol

[@TheDisillusioned1811]

Wow, so many pearls of wisdom in this film. I can't believe I have never heard of Yeti Trail runners before. Jason is a philosopher. Keep this type of content coming, the world needs it.

[@TrailRunningZen]

Thanks bro! Was so happy to tell this story!

[@ChaseTheSummit]

This came out great! Nice work!

[@dieselsan]

This is what makes trail running great - welcoming, diverse, simple, fun. From one generation of trail running yetis (TARC) to another, Arrrwoooo! Love the passion and spirit. 💪 🦶

[@TrailRunningZen]

Amen!

[@go_kybo163]

“ You wanna know how trail runners drive? “ 😂

[@TrailRunningZen]

one of my favorite moments!

[@hudfamfour]

Great film! Wish I lived closer to the Yeti community so I could run these awesome races!

[@phikep]

Great work, Jeff! I really enjoyed this. I'm sorry that it took me so long to see it. Kudos!

[@heighRick]

Yetis, Jason, that was a great film, thanks for sharing this tiny part of your journey with us. Thanks, helps a lot!

[@marysalmon2367]

best trail running video ever. I did my first 50k in 2018 and my new goal is to do this one. I have one DFL under my belt, why not go for another, hell yeah.

[@TrailRunningZen]

DFL is an honor! You ran more hours than anyone else that day!

[@andrewryder1319]

I firmly agree!!! Tears of sadness and tears of joy. This is a great film!

[@helenlebel6948]

Love it! Looks like I'll be in a Yeti race for my first ultra!!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Welcome to the madness! You're gonna love it!

[@erissmith845]

As a trail runner who never runs races (well, I did a Mud Run once) because 'why is everyone so serious about getting your heart pumping while you play in nature?' I LOVE everything about this!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Yeah man, just chasing a feeling 🤩

[@billwolf1777]

I love this!! I’m running my first Yeti in June. I didn’t think it was possible to be MORE excited than I already was, but this video did it!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Haha! Glad I could help!

[@BeardVsTheWorldUK1]

Fucking awesome!! I wanna start a Yeti race in Germany. This needs to spread...

[@TrailRunningZen]

Agreed!

[@shanepetersen7572]

Mate what a community I’m a 6”4 105 kg trail runner that loves trails for what it is here in NZ and what to find a group like this Awesome vision !!

[@TrailRunningZen]

You should join the group on FB, all kinds of cool people and unique virtual challenges, you'd fit right in!

[@SeeChadRun]

I just subscribed! Great movie and I can't wait to watch more of your films and videos!

[@varldenslangsammasteultrajogga]

A wonderful film about a wonderful event with wonderful people. Thanks so much! I’m so sorry I’m living on the wrong side of the ocean and can’t participate. Tons of love! ❤️ Mats

[@karmaforgotme]

This video got recommended to me when it came out, and because of it I’m currently signed up and training for this year’s race. I have only ran halves (no full), and since I was turning 50 this year (today to be exact) you gave me idea of doing a 50k at 50. So thanks for an awesome video and I’m currently up here suffering on the local trails of Knoxville because of it.

[@TrailRunningZen]

That's so awesome man! Happy Birthday!! I may be goofing around at snakebite this year I hope to see ya there

[@karmaforgotme]

@@TrailRunningZen Update I got hurt last year (bad high ankle sprain in late August) and I had a DNS. That said I did run the Dam Yeti 55K in June and I think I have survived my training this year (one more day to go), so it looks like Sunday morning I will finally be able to run it. Thanks again your for your video. I will be cussing you Sunday at around 24 tho...

[@TrailRunningZen]

@@karmaforgotme I really want to run Dam Yeti, such a cool trail through all the towns😎 Snakebite is going to be much more technical than Dam Yeti so watch your step! I may stop by and run a loop tomorrow 🤘

[@edwarddapra7674]

Love the chilled and laid back atmosphere. “Three flags lined up, s*** about to happen.” Ha!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Jason's startline speeches are my favorite part of every race--They're legendarily irreverent!

[@shimmer3053]

Such a fantastic doco - got dust in the eyes watching this!

thank you...i needed that

[@michelleharnett1351]

[@Dora-bmrwarrior]

I've had this film on my "Watch Later" list for a while, so glad I finally watched it. Great video and glad to know there's a group of trail runners that I would fit into. I'm an oldie (baby boomer) and hope to do some trail races someday!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Thanks so much for checking it out, come on over to a Yeti Race, you’ll love it! Doesn’t matter if you come in first, last or dnf, as long as you show up you’ll have a great time!

[@mkay6453]

Looks amazing, love the vibes.

[@Ultrarunningamber]

Dang, now I am on a mission to run one of your races love. Not including the Yeti Challenge I did in 2020. I will travel from Minnesota to do it. This video ROCKED!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Yes! Come run with the cult!

[@SaltyKatie]

This is freaking awesome. Headed to GA to run one as soon as I can.

[@Twist0815]

Awesome Film! Thanks for showing such a beautiful attitude towards life, nature and the trails. Loved it!

[@TrailRunningZen]

Thanks so much! They are an amazing group of people, you should definitely run one the races if you ever get a chance

[@Phatkid1013]

Great film and makes me proud to be part of the yeti trail cult 🤘

[@katiebea9258]

Met you today on the downhill from the cave ... Good talk and the plate spurred my curiouser and curiouser. As compared to my "envy" over the Euro-trip pics. Keep up the great work; I'll accept meeting you like that "encouragement from on-high" and a kewl divine appointment. Keep steady ...

[@msgdedadvnture]

This is right up my alley. Decided to make this year my year to get serious about putting more miles together after not doing much running in my life at all besides sports. Metal to the core, beer brewer and drinker, and now trail runner. Need to link up with y'all. I'm local to Bristol, TN.

[@TrailRunningZen]

I hear ya man, I'm trying to rebuild my running legs and overall fitness this year as well. You're not far at all from Abingdon, Va (they put on a couple races up there you can check out or volunteer at to just start meeting people) If you're on FB check out the Yeti Trail Runners group and join in!

[@jamesbadham9665]

To be a high school kid able to decide for himself that he loves skateboarding and loves to run in the woods and will do both unless some myopic adult decides he can't is to be a lucky high school kid. That's rare.

[@TrailRunningZen]

You're right, his mother was super supportive, there were a lot of stories he told about his childhood that didn't make the final cut about how his parents choose vacation spots that would give him a great place to skate. On the flipside Jason's the type of guy that probably would've just did his own thing in spite of myopic adults, lol

[@geodude7919]

Blaming your parents is valid until age 20, after that it's on you to grow. With or without your parents. I surpassed my parents intellect level years ago

[@TrailRunningZen]

@@geodude7919 I agree, but I don't think anyone here is blaming their parents for anything, just saying it's cool & rare for a parent to encourage their teenage kids to embrace atypical hobbies like skateboarding ;)

Cheers. But you could only get Free Tail in San Antonio. I tried to order it from New Mexico. They told me they don't ship to Taos, an' I was pissed for like a day cause they got Desert Fog and Voodoo Ranger at the Supersave, instead. Also weed is legal in New Mexico now. But that was fun to watch. Sorry about your friend. That's really sad. A good friend of my brother had gotten hit by a car shortly before I left Texas. But you tell all those people with a thicker build that I know how hard it is to run with that extra weight on 'cause I train with extra weight sometimes and I get all worked up like "I CAN'T DO DIS!!!", too. Everybody got they own pace. Send a shout out to the Filling Station Tap Room in SATX if you ever there. Tejas Trails is weird fo' real.
