The Midstate Massive - Winning my First 100 Mile Race!

[@matttittle7788]

I am blown away by this video. He did a full send in $hitty conditions with not night trail experience........all while eating freaking Pop Tarts and drinking five hour energy. Having run this race, I am impressed!!! Congratulations Cody!

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you! Sometimes ignorance is bliss lol. Can’t wait to see what the future holds

[@ChaseTheSummit]

Nice job Cody! 19:47 on this course in these conditions is crazy! Looking forward to seeing what you do next!

[@maha-em7jz]

damnnn ive never seen anyone be so happy and seemingly relaxed running an ultra marathon (and winning??), mad impressive

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you! I truly had a blast. Anticipated being in so much pain but it just never shaped up that way

[@vtrider82]

You did wicked awesome dude! I think the reason you did so well is because of your positivity. I'm sure your fitness is super great but your positivity and the fire you had lit the whole time helped you kick so much ass! Looks like you have a solid future ahead of you in ultrarunning. Keep it up! B Main

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you! Truly appreciate the comment. I love running so much and can’t wait to see where it takes me

[@Mikefishing0]

holy moly i love this dudes attitude. subscribed

[@Cody-does-things]

Appreciate you!

[@theorchardsessionsbali5047]

Well done man. Solid run, great fueling and banging positivity!

[@Cody-does-things]

Attitude is everything! Thanks for watching!

[@toddboucher3302]

Well, that’s a pretty good time specially, for your first one I had the video started off. I thought it was gonna be a crash and burn because you were hustling and by you were able to hold it on it’s great to be.

[@Lalo_Runs]

So much positivity 👏🏾 super dope video bro 🔥

[@Cody-does-things]

Thanks man glad you liked it!

[@jillmel.4197]

Thank you for posting your journey on the Mid State Ultra. This was my first time volunteering at this event and remembered seeing you cross the finish line. Super Impressive!!! 🎉

[@Cody-does-things]

Thanks for volunteering! Couldn’t have done it without you guys

[@paranomalMIST]

Brother amazing job,love your vibe and video was very enjoyable!. Well done! Stay hard!🤙🏼

[@Cody-does-things]

Stay hard indeed! Thanks for the watch

[@RhodySeth]

Great race and great video too. Your energy is off the charts - fueled by pop tarts and the power of youth. Great breakdown of what went right. Well done! Also you sound like a young Owen Wilson.

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you! Taking that as a huge compliment because I love owen wilson! One of my all time favorite actors. Thanks for the watch and for the comment - truly appreciate it!

[@AMostlyFunctionalJess]

Your fuelling looked absolutely spot on. Loads of food+great attitude = a recipe for success

[@austinado16]

Cody, you're a machine!! Outstanding race! I can't fathom cranking out 101 miles.

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you! 6 months ago I couldn’t fathom it either. It’s insane how fast perception changes!

[@OldBrownDog]

SICK!!!! I thought you were going to run back! I saw your Grand Canyon rip a couple months ago. We're cheering for ya!

[@Cody-does-things]

Haha I thought about it! Thanks for watching!

[@mauricelowman3074]

Incredible performance and first place finish!! You absolutely crushed it!! Congratulations!!

[@ryanniclasen6887]

Great job in the race and awesome video.

[@justthinking2241]

That attitude and energy is awesome 😂🎉

[@RickKanesGhost]

Your attitude, stomach, and determination is contagious. Never heard of anyone being able to eat two chicken burritos, a five hour energy, and chicken broth at mile 50 of a 100 mile race and not pay for it later. Lettsss gooo!

[@Cody-does-things]

Hey thanks man! Overall I’ve had a lot of luck with my stomach in races. Someday it’ll all go to hell but until then I’m just going to keep enjoying the ride. Thanks for watching!

[@timkavanaugh6474]

Hahaha someday it’ll all go to hell. Could be the edge you need man, iron stomach.

[@vinay-xw3zp]

19 hours is nuts for 100 miles. Big congratulations

[@Cody-does-things]

Thanks mate! Appreciate the watch and the kind words!

[@UltraKoryy]

Sick! awesome sauce bro.. excited to follow you and see how you grow!

[@Cody-does-things]

Thanks! I’m excited to see how I grow too. Possibilities are endless at this point

[@lucid484]

We were talking about running this, but we ended up doing Ghost Train instead. Congrats on the win.

[@PatrickCole-md9bu]

How were the course markings? I thought the course was an out and back and ended back in New Hampshire!

[@Cody-does-things]

Nope, point to point. The course markings were okay, but nothing to write home about. Without the route downloaded to my watch I would have ended up very lost several times

[@mr.mueller7704]

Won by over two hours! Legit bro! Congratulations! This is massive!

[@MaximSchneider-m3v]

Great video Amazing energy you got there

[@Cody-does-things]

Thanks!!

[@RyanWilliams-xz6ye]

I ran the 50 this year and I thought it was crazy. I can’t believe you did this course that fast all while ingesting garbage. You are impressive. You’re living an amazing life. We’ll done sir. “LETS GO!!”

[@Cody-does-things]

Haha thank you! Congrats on the 50 - no small feat with the course conditions. Maybe next time I’ll eat some halfway nutritious carbohydrates

[@thewhislerjourney]

I need this energy. 😅 I have my first 50 mile ultra in 22 days 😅🏃 Salute to you, & congratulations 🫡

[@DeepakTiwari-wx5ee]

Respect! Best wishes!

[@trailandtravel]

Wow such an impressive job! That looked so freaking tough! 🙌🏽

[@Cody-does-things]

It just makes it that much more rewarding!

[@l.l.a.2465]

This is incredible man, congratulations!

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you!

[@marinatedbeefcubes]

this looks like so much fun! from going "weeeee" down the hill, the views and so much snackies "this dude filled my pockets with cheeseits" LOOL gg on the win! ✨

[@matthewmyers7826]

Great race! Best cut down on the Ibuprofen though! can do a lot of kidney damage when used during endurance events. I allow myself 2-4 per 100 miler, but a lot of folks won't tough during ultras

[@Cody-does-things]

Thanks for the advice! I almost never take ibuprofen so this was an anomaly. Ill be sure to cut back next time

[@TheRolnik11]

Good job gengo! Well done

[@zachmiller1289]

Nice job man!!! I ran the RI trail classic this last weekend and everyone was tripping and falling. I fell probably 8 times😂

[@Cody-does-things]

Lol it was so sloppy out there. Once you just accept it I almost had fun splashing around in the puddles lol. Congrats on getting out there and making the most of it!

[@jeffmoffat6967]

Awesome stuff!

[@intentionally]

Letsgooo!

[@Cody-does-things]

Full sends only lol

[@ryangarrett3571]

Awesome race man!! I was the guy who made the quesadilla for ya! One thing - be careful taking that much ibuprofen, it can really affect your kidney function. Looking forward to more content and WINs

[@Cody-does-things]

That was the best damn quesadilla I’ve ever had! Appreciate you being out there at 4am for us! I’ll do my best to deliver more wins and keep the ibuprofen to a minimum

[@douglasjames222]

You da man. Amazing pace and amazing attitude especially while the rest of us were cursing the conditions. I really appreciate what I learned from your video and effort. See you out there!

[@ironslav]

Crazy. Great job….how many iboprofen?!?!!

[@Cody-does-things]

I think I ended up at 12 total😂

[@Cody-does-things]

Kinda lost count

[@bladerunner1000rr]

Great job Cody

[@JonPasq]

Great job!!

[@objectinmotion]

Woo! Let’s go!

[@timkavanaugh6474]

Bro you’re a beast

[@basik1dotcom]

Amazing work! Love your attitude and energy. Really inspiring!

[@ericarp8879]

Great race Cody! You crushed it! What shoes did you wear for this?

[@Cody-does-things]

Thank you! I ran in Altra lone peak 6’s. Altra is pretty much all I run in now I love the wide toe box

[@Jacobdoesstuff11]

Why dont you post on your youtube channel anymore?

[@joejackson6146]

would love to see how you trained for this

[@Cody-does-things]

I usually run 40-80 miles a week without much structure. I did two 50 mile runs and a 40 mile run in the two months leading up to this. I contribute most of the result to the 5+ years of consistent running. The consistency just leads to a solid foundation of fitness

[@aaronsmith2929]

Bad@ss!

[@Caprieye789]

Is the course marked? how do you not get lost? this is amazing!

[@Cody-does-things]

The trail has a bunch of yellow triangles to mark it and the race directors put out some signs with arrows. Overall it’s generally well marked but road crossings are especially tough. I had navigation on my watch, that’s why I didn’t get more lost than I did

[@jimace9409]

Dude. You smoked it. Way to go! What model of Coros did you get?

[@Cody-does-things]

Ended up with the coros pace 3. Tried the apex but didn’t like the position of the dial because i always pressed it on accident. No complaints about the pace 3. Solid watch

[@ErnestoEchevarria]

Your camera is smooth! What camera are you using?

[@Cody-does-things]

Haha thanks! Nothing fancy, just a GoPro hero 9
