Pikes Peak Marathon 2012: Kilian Jornet, Alex Nichols, Max King, Emelie Forsberg, Kasie Enman

A brutal marathon that climbs up to over 14,100 feet at the halfway point. Some clips of the top runners coming up the mountain. Video by www.Vo2maxProductions.com, music by www.TakeToTheOars.com. The Salomon running team leads the pack in the women's race, while Kilian Jornet easily wins on the men's side.

I just ran the ascent yesterday and in the last 1.5 miles I really thought I was going to lose consciousness several times...

[@Davek7110]

14,115 ft. elev. that will make you a bit dizzy!! lived in the Springs for 6 years... you do acclimate a bit!!

[@Jim-be8sj]

I wonder if any of these ultra-fit people ever stop for a greasy doughnut at the shop on the summit before starting the descent.

[@MidsierramusingBlogspot]

The guy spouting ultralies like, "Your almost there." and "It's all downhill." should be made to run this course himself!

[@katis999]

That guy is Sage Canaday, a pro runner. He has done a few brutal runs himself. Just a few... :))))

[@MidsierramusingBlogspot]

all the more reason to offer thoughtful encouragement.
