I Ran a BRUTAL Ultra Marathon in Mongolia (155 Miles, 30-Pound Pack)

[@GeorgeLotridge]

Eva, the ability to run a marathon like this is beyond my understanding. I am constantly amazed by your commitment, determination, and stamina. This is an accomplishment that you will take with you for the rest of your life, and it will inform many of your choices in the future. Well done, and Congratulations on placing in the women's segment!

[@evazubeck]

I really appreciate all your continued support, George. But I really do think that most people could run this race with adequate training! The world belongs to the brave

[@218driver]

enjoyed the video and your determation... but why do you do this to your body.. life is so short

[@natalielee4091]

Congratulations Eva ❤💪

@@218driver Your body is more capable than you think :) Give it a chance!

[@FirstNameLastName-ti4nc]

[@ant.everest]

Every time I watch someone train and will though an insane challenge like this, it reminds me of Slavomir Rawicz and his fellow prisoners who traveled 6,437km on FOOT from Siberia to India with no gear to escape the prison camps. Anything is possible with the correct mindset. Humans are amazing. You, the person reading this, you are amazing.

[@JayS.-mm3qr]

For me it reminds me to not do something like this. They end up basically hating life by the end. For what? To say they did it? Congratulations, you took something enjoyable and made it miserable because you wanted to say you went X miles, some really long number, at the expense of your sanity, and likely longevity. Just sayin.

Rawicz was conman bruh /wiki/Sławomir_Rawicz The real man behind the 6k travel was Witold Gliński

Thank you! 🙏 I always try to think about humanity and all the positive in the world to keep my mind up when I need to. With a positive mindset there are impossible things one can accomplish. Thank you for reminding me of this. I wish you a nice day and a good cup of tea. 😊❤

[@tammasgrogan3482]

Congratulations Eva! I’m living this adventure vicariously through you! I was a runner for most of my life, and here I am at 60 years old, waiting for a knee replacement, almost immobile. But it’s the strength that I learned from running (tears and pushing myself) that’s getting me through this low point in my life!

[@nathandiehl5187]

Rarely watch your videos -- life is always busy -- but when I do take the time I've enjoyed them all. 155 miles across the Mongolian tundra...the camera captures moments...and imagination fills in the blanks. You can never show it all and some of the hardest times are the ones unwitnessed. From a stranger, thanks for the inspiration. I found a dose of this years ago on the Appalachian Trail -- US east coast hiking trail. Spent four months on trail. Love every root, stone, drop of sweat, tall tree and drop of silence. Experiences like this are so valuable. Tapping into the primal to wash away the trappings of today. Hold on to the feeling. Keep seeking it out. Much love and best wishes.

Eva, WOW! You are my inspiration ❤️ ✨️ I'm not running ultramarathons. Living in my van and travelling around Australia is what I do. I'll never run again, long story, but I have a broken spine. Lucky to be able to stand and mobilise. Seeing what you do inspires me to get up every day. It takes me about the same amount of time to 'walk' 500 metres as it takes you to run 20 km. But, it doesn't matter. I will never go back into a wheelchair!

I’ve been watching your channel since the day you came to Mongolia for horse trekking, which I think was 4 years ago. Back then, I felt so sad that you couldn’t finish what you wanted due to falling off the horse, as I remember. Since then, I’ve become a fan of yours, never skipping a single video. And now, 4 years later, seeing you come back to Mongolia to run an ultra marathon and finish what you started makes me feel beyond happy. I am so proud of you, and I am happy that this time Mongolia did not let you down.

Thank you for representing Idaho on your hat. You said it was kind of like life. It’s exactly like life. I worked outdoors my whole life in some of the most brutal country in the southwest USA.I suffered two heart attack, kidney cancer, and wiped myself out in the coal mine. I have paralysis now and can no longer work. I had to push myself every single day. I had to get through the day in those tough environments. Now it’s transferred over to me being in a lot of pain and just pushing myself to mow the lawn. Sounds kind of silly, but God prepared me for these hard times. young kids can cut the lawn and not even break a sweat. I’m in so much pain I have tears but because of life that God gave me I know how to push myself just like you. Thank you for sharing this run.

Pretty exciting. I did mountain hiking with a pack but not running. On one trip in the north Cascade Mountains in Washington, my 16-year old daughter and I went from around 400 feet elevation to 6000 feet. She bought lots of candy for the trip but after a mile of nasty switchbacks, she left her candy until a rock for the return trip. The hardest part of hiking with a pack is that constant pull on the shoulder muscles. I haven't backpacked in 20 years but I can still remember those shoulder muscles that I know you felt on your trip. I was continually adjusting my pack. And when you take off your pack, you feel like you are ready to fall forward. Walking down hill with a pack was hardest and I was always moving fast to get to a place where I could set up camp. Then when you finish, you think, "I never want to do this again," but the next hike seems to appear on your horizon.

[@evazubeck]

Haha yes, the back becomes a kind of dreaded companion... but it carries all of our essentials! And that's something to appreciate :D

[@ceciliasoderman3316]

Super well done. I tried to find a map of the way you ran but the organizer had not provided one 😕. I saw that the finish was in Karakorum (or how ever you spell it) which is a fantastic place. I am, like you, a great lover of Mongolia and it’s landscape and of course the kind and lovely people. Third place - that is so awsome. I found the list of the results. Some runners did not make it. I hope no one got seriously injured?
