Mount Marathon | The HARDEST 5k In the World

The 5k is the most commonly run event in all of distance running. This is mainly attributed to its middle ground identity to where people can strive to walk one, run one, or to race it as hard as you possibly can. One 5k course located in a small area in Alaska stands out among the rest to the point where breaking 40 minutes would be a groundbreaking endeavor, and its past shows to be one of the most unique in trail running history.

Allie Ostrander's dominance in the junior race is impressive too!

[@bigbattenberg]

Totally! She once beat all the boys! Such a tiny girl in total beast mode, legendary.

[@elleodom32]

allie has some amazing videos about this on her youtube channel!

[@lonelyweeb03]

Dude, your narration and scripting are amazing! How tf do you achieve that?

[@slim197]

a lot of practice, before this channel he was well know for creating documentaries on rhythm games like DDR, Guitar hero and Osu! on his old channel Etienne.

Hiked a half mile of this while in Alaska this summer. Turned a corner and a bear cub was checking me out. Time froze, I said “Nope, no, no buddy, no.” and tried to work my way down. It’s not a trail you can walk backwards on.

[@derekconwaygd]

really glad to see this channel popping off! ive watched you since before this channel was made on etienne and this content has inspired me to take up running myself

[@snubau1611]

You are the most criminally underrated KZbinr at the moment.

[@cakej1]

Looks so much fun. I enjoy racing Loon mnt as often that I can, but this looks brutal.

[@lucianavila-gatz4667]

Underrated channel

[@aidannxv]

[@Emma-zm7zb]

So cool! Great to hear about races like this as a new marathon runner.

[@jo_cho]

the reason are like your videos is because they're out of the ordinary compared to other running channels

[@oliverzigmund239]

I live in Alaska and when I ran high school cross country, a lot of people ran mount marathon before the season always one of those fun crazy Alaska runs another similar one would be the Juneau Ridge Race looking to do it this coming summer

[@nekolist9775]

Damm. I remember you when you were still Ettienne. Keep grinding bro! I love your vods

[@leahkatz3250]

[@Geoarc_1440]

Awesome video! Love the narration and research

[@Notnotcam]

I love knowing about this channel! So much dope content!

[@incorect63]

This is an insanely good video I hope more people get to see it

[@xHelloSushix]

these runners are monsters!!

[@paxundpeace9970]

Up is pretty much one route with a bit of deviation. Downhill you do have the option to go two different routes on the lower part. One is longer and not as steep as the other.

[@JasonSchoeller]

Awesome video! Can you make a video about the Mount Washington Road Race in New Hampshire?

[@HuskyBloxFruits]

I forgot this channel only has 3k subscribers

[@nro337]

Awesome video!

[@rainorsmthn7954]

[@Qwerty83834]

I thought a course with an average of 2 minutes up was bad. That is crazy
