Amazing and inspiring! Thank you for showcasing a badass woman athlete crushing goals! Kaytlyn is so awesome! And Ethan, you and your team did an amazing job telling her story. Beautiful all around.

[@joshuablack3163]

I was going to say that this is on par with Ginger Runner content and then I saw the director is the Ginger Runner himself. You made a good choice The North Face!

[@richdixon4532]

And the Ginger Runner makes a Hitchcock-like appearance in the film

[@TheNorthFace]

👌

[@tedforsstromjacobsson4160]

my exact thought:)

[@8draco8]

@@richdixon4532 I think I missed him on video but for sure his the narrator. Sounds exactly as intro to Where Dreams Go To Die 😂

[@RobKrar1]

Crusher, love this, so awesome.

[@dgunde13gunderson78]

Katlyn and gang ....thanks for talking all the trouble to document and share this event with us!!!!The altitude gain during the one stretch makes me ache like the good old days, running or mountainbiking up oregon and wa mountains......Super Kudos! DGunde

[@bryanmcdermott4204]

Amazing job by Kaytlyn, and tremendous filmmaking. Showing the suffering makes the joy seem that much more real.

[@rodfriesen4370]

Awesome!!! Ethan, you have the perfect 60's narrator voice vibe!

[@janellasamson1079]

Thank you for closing the gap, Kaytlyn. This is an inspiration. Tearing up on my lunch break 😂

[@TheNorthFace]

Thanks for watching!

[@wrenpyle7098]

[@azranfariq80]

Woww...the best ginger runner movie 🎥 Luv this!!!

[@BradenHenricksen]

Wow! Such an inspiring story on your record breaking run. I’ve grown up in the area and worked in the park for two years and to see someone do the wonderland trail that quickly blows my mind! You are a top tier athlete!

[@photophobia3]

You're an absolute inspiration, Kaytlin! It's a joy to follow your badass achievements and your interviews that are always so insightful. Beautiful video, too!!

[@susanwiggins6309]

Simply amazing - both the FKT and the film! Congratulations Kaytlyn & Ethan!

[@theindustriouspodcast4911]

Way to go Kaitlyn, what an inspiration in so many ways. It is incredible to see you set the record and so proud of the local. Thank you ginger runner for doing a great job with the filming. Excellence all around

[@TheoPhysics495]

Incredible. Thank you Kaytlyn and The North Face!

[@EthanJJordan]

Would not be an ultra film without a good puke and rally scene! Inspiring stuff. Going to make sure my daughter watches this one.

[@TheDeterminedRunner]

Great film & top job with the run Kaytlyn. It's really good to see TNF putting the time, effort & resources into trail running. Really enjoyed this 👍🏃

[@irunovermountains]

EPIC!!!! Great film Ethan. Great run Kaytlyn. Exciting things at TNF the last few years - it keeps building. The runners, products, and clearly now a focus on the sport of ultra trail running 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@TheNorthFace]

👌

[@joyfulprozac]

Amazing achievement by Kaytlyn and her entire team, truly awe-inspiring. This was a beautiful production to illustrate the event, thanks to my favourite running creative genius, Ethan Newberry aka The Ginger Runner!

[@CivisCreativeFilms]

So cool. Way to go Kaytlyn!

[@mattthomaslynch]

Great film 👍🏼👍🏼

What a beast ! Respect from Colombia 🇨🇴

[@ianthompson3863]

Absolutely incredible, looking so fresh at the end and the feet appeared to hold up with not too many issues!! Amazing, now inspired me to get on with training for my second 50K this year (which is nothing compared to 150k!!)! Fantastic well done Kaytlyn!!!

[@TheNorthFace]

Good luck with the training 👌

[@markomalley5351]

[@iguillo]

I just happened upon this video...................................................this is incredible.

[@christianstevens9804]

Nice work Ethan!

[@shawnbrennan7526]

So, she basically beat the old record by the amount of time it takes a good recreational runner to do a Marathon. And I love that she tackled an area she has such a connection to, instead of surfing the FKT website to look for “soft” targets. Huge RESPECT

[@selfcoachedrunner]

Amazing. On all fronts.

[@vitalogy297]

Does anyone know what is the hydration vest she is wearing????

[@pier2384]

Anyone knows what is the soft flask brand for the north face trail vest? Most of them are too big and do not fit well.

[@thomasrobertfitness]

I’m really curious about the average heart rate during the race and also the protocol of reaching electrolytes!? Anyone know the answers?

[@samwilliams874]

badass

How do her knees still work after like 30 miles? Mine are shot at 15 lol

[@zanzybar1554]

The trail is 94 miles, her watch showed 89 miles... please someone explain

[@zanzybar1554]

@zz I assumed it was something of the sort, what is a “good brand” for an off trail watch? Cause I want it to be as accurate as possible. Thanks!

[@RKFAN1990]

@@zanzybar1554 it also heavily depends on the route. I have a Garmin Fènix 6 and during my first 100 miler in the TN and KY mountains, my watch was only 1 mile off at the finish.

[@jakesreilly]

GPS isnt as accurate in those canyons and forests i bet. i think dylan and tylers read 84-86 miles

[@MikeKGrimaldi]

That his how you ultra. wow

This was fucking great!!!
