[@OrangeJackson]

This channel did such a wonderful job. With the pre race interviews, twitter updates during the race, and post race video, it really made the WS 2019 very entertaining, even for those of us thousands of miles away. Thank you guys so much!

[@JamesScottGuitar]

Mark Griffith 😂

[@kevindlv]

„Matriarchy is a term of power not of age“ 😂😂

[@Noah-eq3rn]

I knew Clare was gonna take it when she left Duncan Canyon running the wrong way and the volunteers needed to chase her down and turn her around. What an incredible performance

[@TheDeafNomad.]

Please turn auto-captions on for us deaf folks. Thanks!

[@iRunFarMedia]

Head on over to our website where we have full manual transcriptions of all of our interviews. The KZbin auto-captioning is awful. - Bryon

[@TheDeafNomad.]

@@iRunFarMedia Awesome! Thanks!

[@STEbbi561]

Pacer? WTF! Winning because someone kicks your ass and not because of own willpower is not really the spirit of long distance running... Pacer, Please Keep put of Trailrunning!

[@konstruktivismuskonstru9360]

what a body language....but Courtney is the real winner

[@NageIfar]

I love Courtney as well but that's just disrespectful. At the end of the day, thinking about 'what if she finished' doesn't matter - she didn't.

[@JamesScottGuitar]

Konstruktivismus Konstru I’m guessing Courtney would disagree with that statement. She dropped to be able to run other races this year, rather than destroy herself with one injury in exchange for a one race win and remove any and all opportunities for the rest of the year. She’s a smart competitor and wise enough to know what’s important to her. I love that about her.

[@konstruktivismuskonstru9360]

i'm sure Clare agrees with me. Courtney totally dominated the race and was clearly the best runner. She was an hour ahead of the field...that is a completely different level. Clare is a good runner up, but not the real winner of the race.

[@bridgetnixdorf6183]

That's not how this works
