[@antoniocasablancasvilanova2207]

Was great to meet you in person!!! Great stories on the UTMB. "YOU ARE THE BEST". VAMOS!!!!

[@saadrasool3654]

I love how the best ultrarunners in the world were responsive to Seth's encouragement, while simultaneously pushing their bodies to the maximum limits. THIS IS THE BEST THING ABOUT RUNNING!!!!

[@BanjoStu]

Love how Courtney always has a smile on her face.

[@almondchristopher]

Was amazing that you captured Francois’ son spurring him on ‘allez papa’

[@mcm4point2o]

that was his son!!?!

[@Martha-fluterunner]

Yes

[@jean-philippecanart9640]

Yes, meaning go daddy, go! Great!

[@phillippacrews7385]

The emotion in this, perfectly captured. That's what your vlogs are all about, it's not just the running. It's life, people, stories and personal challenges. Bravo Seth and thank you

[@sebtanss7964]

Truly inspiring seth, the atmosphère seems amazing...looking forward to see you back in france.

[@robertburpee9473]

Thank you Seth……… Wow …….. your video production & story line composition is amazing. You are a teller of stories of the highest order. Thank you for the incredible work you put in BRAVO

[@lrbtechie]

Thanks for including the footage of the little boy cheering on his father! You win the internet for that clip Seth!

[@gbmpam8]

This's the kind of vlog that I watch again and again, and still can have enough of it!

[@gbmpam8]

This is my favourite vlog by far, thank you very much Seth, I cannot even imagine how tired you feel after almost 2 weeks of big effort and hard work!! ♡

[@plamko96]

The facial close ups made me so emotional, thinking of all that adrenaline and good vibes. Seth, thank you!

[@JaySizz]

Seth, the way you ended this video was so good. Keep it raw, always keep pushing the BOUNDARIES of your craft so that it HAS to be as life is-- unpolished, first-take, the beautiful moments that do not repeat themselves.

[@Chrislubey__1]

Thankful to be watching after surviving hurricane ida

[@CorentinHarbelot]

Thanks for keeping the magic last a little bit longer ! We love Courtney !

[@bartekzielinski1645]

@SethJamesDeMoor your best work yet Sir! UTMB needs your footage on their website and channel. You had it all - the big names, 'legible' night coverage, magnificent context shots in town & along Mont Blanc. BUT for me the close up of the Two Runners at night was the pinnacle = hard work and determination, running the UTMB and filming the UTMB. Thank you for taking us there, there is only ONE @SethJamesDeMoor !

[@philippegagne268]

Thank you Seth for getting out there and capturing those incredible images! Baguette, cheese and wine… it doesn’t get more French that this!! Onward and Upward

[@McLeod573]

Simply ...thx for all these beautiful images...great UTMB movie 🙏😌...ALLEZ ...ALLEZ...ALLEZ...🇨🇵

[@JBinNC86]

Thank you seth, I got to see more about the UTMB through your channel. 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 Love from Ph

[@keithc1264]

What do you enjoy more, Seth: Running or telling a story through video production? You are excellent at both!

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

TOUGH ONE there KEITH!

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

COMMENT OF THE DAY!!!

[@Kelly_Ben]

This was so fun to watch, thanks for covering it! That woman's smile at 10:00 was incredible given how she was probably feeling! QD: The last time I was way out of my comfort zone was Nov 2020. I ran my first 50k. My longest runs ever prior to that were 2 half marathons a few years before. Due to injuries, I'd only trained to 12 miles prior to race day. I was undertrained, had no friends who'd ever run an ultra, and was counting on hours of KZbin watching during training to get me through. I finished, and now have my third, and by far most difficult, 50k coming up Sept 5. THAT will be my new benchmark for comfort zones!

[@christopherheaven2926]

High quality video Seth, not an easy event to capture, you look like you were enduring as much as the runners out there 😂. Ever great-full to your dedication. DGR 💪

[@RowOfMushyTiT]

6:24 damn, those are some mean quads!

[@Nonixification]

6:10 When François comes up into the frame you feel the air vibrating, you sense some kind of power. Hard to describe it, but I really like that shot in this video.

[@furryfury.]

Yes! And Francois always has a kingly presence about him. Or maybe just because he’s tall?

[@ErnieOne]

2:14: “who the hell is passing me?” . Super job, Seth! To me is you who won the first place 🥇!

[@plop4526]

Seth, what you are doing and providing for us is beyond awesome! Thank you for the constant super content and daily motivation!

[@DanielSmith-mn5wl]

Video production is entering a new tier Seth, some extremely gorgeous shots!

[@Martha-fluterunner]

Another beautiful, inspiring and moving montage of the slice of life you experienced over this last week in the metaphorical form of this epic race in an equally epic setting. Martha

[@tomasitaliano69]

Thank you for working you butt off and sharing such a special race with us! ALE! ALE! ALE!!!!

[@carolineeastburn9355]

Found myself a bit out of my comfort zone in an alarming snowstorm (in June 😳) running up Hurricane Pass, training for the Silverton Alpine Marathon. Near 13,000 ft. Can’t call it “unexpected,” because nothing is unexpected in the San Juan Mountains! Just a deposit into the strength/confidence bank account. 😁

[@aceanderson9128]

Love the production and experimentation with techniques on this video. Really great stuff. Thanks as always Seth

[@rickverbree214]

Love this content Seth. Great footage of the race and surroundings. Keep on going!!!👊

[@Jerome-gs4kd]

QD: been out of comfort on Sunday, finishing my first ever 30km run in the dark… surprising how darkness brings fears. Did the job anyway, will start earlier next Sunday ! Thank you for these amazing videos.

[@jmarino1685]

Wow! So much effort into this vlog. Well done, the production was amazing. You have many talents on display here!

[@Adi-wo1ej]

did rock climbing and abseiling on some of Queensland, Australia's highest peaks. Terrified of heights so it was a very emotional 5 days!

[@Guedovsky]

Seth wow your videos keep getting better, amazing shots!

[@erickienle]

Ouray 50 was the hardest race/ most out of my comfort zone ever!!!! One of the best races I’ve ever run

[@carolineeastburn9355]

Terrific coverage! Awesomely-framed shots.

[@robertblackborow8474]

Hi Seth, your an inspiration as a man, and how you evoke beauty through your Art Form. Onwards and Upwards !

[@bv26point2]

You are amazing! Your videos are amazing! Those Ultra runners have a crew, and you should too. 😊 Thank you sir!

[@LuisGuzman-tz3tv]

Chamonix is beautiful!

[@yumistargazer2456]

Congratulations for putting so much effort in posting daily high quality videos even under very difficult circumstances!! I love the videos 😊

[@Twize]

Awesome coverage! Man, that ending though!? crazy stuff Seth! Respect ✊ Thank you!

[@SwissAlpsHiker]

I love how you always strive to tell a good story, Seth!

[@dannymontes4110]

This is an awesome video Seth. Thank you for all you Hard work. DGR Strong👊

[@frband]

Incredible footage! Thanks!!

[@josefcarlson5277]

No words for this, just incredible work!

[@tomasitaliano69]

For me it's those last three miles to the top of Pikes Peak during the Marathon! Always such a physical and mental challenge! I can do more though! Can't wait for my day at a UTMB race!

[@hersenpannetje]

High class editing! Really enjoyed it! thx

[@brakerbraker829]

Intimate but no too familiar...I appreciate that from a "photographer/journalist". You handled the big learning curve in foreign climes with aplomb. Bravo! Fascinating to note the extreme difference in morphology between d'Haene and Walmsley.

[@BirdfluDracula]

Unfortunately for us Seth was disclosing the true meaning of life in the last few minutes of today's vlog

[@stuarthys9879]

Such a beautiful location. I hope someday I can take part! I like the race coverage. It would be nice if you could interview some of the participants, or explain more of the route, and what the challenges are.

[@markcapponi971]

Inspiring content Seth! QD: running is my comfort zone, during this pandemic, and the challenges that have come, the privilege to be able to run everyday, has kept me going. It never stops to amaze me how running connects so many people…

[@1989Matthijs]

Great vlog Seth! Love the energy you put in to making these vlogs for all of us. DGR strong!

[@pranayama-running-Jendrik]

I don‘t mind if you don‘t load up a video today 🙏 I‘m watching the whole day from time to time if a new video from you is coming up. I‘m very happy that your‘re a live after this serious mountains out there 🤩 Thank you for this amazing footage of these epic race 🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️🙇‍♂️ dgr strong

[@CrisGarrnetTV]

GREAT WORK SETH!

[@Erikre33]

I cant believe this video was made by just 1 guy :)

[@TheJCP006]

It's almost like being there.Seth comes prepared. Wardrobe change and snacks.

[@johannagamboa1568]

Se me hizo super corto el video, pero gracias por compartir como se vive desde adentro la UTMB.

[@dermotkearnstheemeraldisle4078]

What an experience that must have been Seth!!

[@davesharratt917]

QoD: after doing half marathons in training on a weekly basis I recently thought I should try some trail. Pen y fan (Wales, nothing big) 7am, nobody else to be seen, more risk than I wanted to take but pulled it off - just a lot slower than predicted. New found respect for these UT runners.

[@larasutton1483]

I am training for my first full marathon this October. Every long run is out of my comfort zone anymore!

[@RobertHeinsch]

Great vlog! Amazing pictures. Want to register for UTMB right now. Is it possible that your monologue at the end was not recorded?

[@ricodelavega4511]

aside from the pain and the summertime blizzard, utmb seems like a big party.

[@oskie501]

Little did those runners know the real celebrity was the guy videoing them!

[@SarahOdeh]

Another absolutely beautiful video!!!

[@mcm4point2o]

good things come to those who wait!! thanks for the epic 'footy' SJD!!

[@stefanopintus2969]

Great content Seth! Congrats on being a great runner and an excellent videographer as wel, kerp it on :)

[@andypandy2848]

Some great clips Seth. You do a great job with the editing too some interesting angles on things. Hope to see someone filming you competing utmb soon!

[@leonelhernandez3187]

great footage, and amazing edits Seth!

[@paulnielsen7610]

Ditto to all the comments! Welcome home, Seth!

[@wetzky]

Well played with the Tolkien quote - “Not all those who wander are lost”

[@Chrislubey__1]

You inspire so many to create their own KZbin channel

[@thepatternforms859]

who makes all these pole quivers? wtf do i find them? apparently the salomon one cant be found? tf is going on??????????

[@kiwirevo]

When you held up the bag that midnight snack was in I immediately thought 'please be a baguette' and ... boom... Baguette :) viva la France

[@jasonhawen3272]

QOD... UTS100 in Wales. Self navigate 100 miles across the brecon beacons.... got lost everywhere and had the trail rescue car out to put me back on track 4 times. Race briefing took an hour where every runner was given 2 maps to go through and mark certain points to avoid. I left my maps still folded up on the table as I can't read maps. Everyone in the room looked like Bear Gryll's... i know i had no chance of finishing as I could get lost in a padded cell

[@dukehong7491]

That kid at 6:50. How could you not run with that encouragement?

[@sandratessem9980]

Congrats Courtney

[@davidgross7972]

The last time I was way out of my comfort zone was in October 2019 on my first 25k trail race and my legs started cramping up halfway through. But I persevered to the end and finished! P.S. You needed some butter for that baguette!

[@alfonsoramos1721]

wow Sir, I take my hat off to you. Todays vlog has been to vlogging as utmb is to racing 😊. Huge effort highly appreciated #dgrstrong. You love what you do Seth

[@Charliepup2023]

So inspiring!

[@TraceCrutchfield]

Looks amazing, buddy.

[@cycletime2238]

Seth love the humor. Hahaha

[@gary7542]

Seth for you to give up family time for DGR is awesome full power to you

[@pndm78]

Amazing job! 💪

[@charriso]

3:56 I love that band lol

[@morenzo70]

Hi Seth at minute 4:36 Oliviero Bosatelli the winner of Tor des Geants 2016 and 2019!!!!

[@benanderson569]

QOD: Colfax marathon 2019. Vision was blurring in from both sides!

[@sandratessem9980]

Outstanding video.

[@SeeChadRun]

Such a beautiful area!

[@RowOfMushyTiT]

Sick footage!

[@neilthomas9651]

Great job of filming Seth which must have been really difficult...definitely need more help more cameras on the course 🙂👍

[@bricostigan9795]

[@paolod2857]

At 4:36 Oliviero Bosatelli was there! The super TOR de Giants winner!

[@KingLifeTale]

Fantastic Seth

[@hersheytate8304]

So what's the story on the guy with the horse legs? Is that not a competitive disadvantage for ultra running? Dude is rocking some straight up HAMS

[@hectorguzman6122]

❤️❤️❤️

[@SethJamesDeMoor]

so good

[@davidsaxe7077]

Nice video Seth! I know it’s wasn’t easy.

[@andrearosco]

There is something in the way they look at you like if they would know you already. I think Jim recognized you.
