THE UNKNOWN | The Hardrock 100

[@phyllisfiliz1]

The thing about the other runner stopping, giving him a hug, and reminding him that he's more than a racer -- that he's a good father and a good husband -- that seriously touched me. I love trail runners.

[@eliasbergman7961]

16:48 just nonchalantly handshakes the greatest American ultrarunner ever lol

Bravo Billy. Tim Olsen is 1 of my favorite runners for whatever reason and you killed this film. Can't wait to watch it several more times.

Everytime someone in your films finish I get a flashback to the 40 miler I once did, so many amazing and conflicting emotions. Thanks for capturing that feeling Billy.

[@golfpunk0r]

Your films make my heart swell 1000 times - really inspiring - that scene when he knew he was going to make it and be ok and the trees were blowing in the wind as he ran through .. so good :)

[@kenflo7]

Awesome video! Nice to see Tim Olson rising at his best again!

[@BillyYang]

My favourite video on KZbin bar none. Amazing. Very inspirational Billy. Thank you

[@davethomasthedreamteam9418]

Been bingeing all your content this weekend after I just finished my first ever Half. Your videos are amazing! So well paced and your narrative choices along side your selection of video content is always impressive. I can't even start to imagine how much video you have to sift through at the end of shooting these docs. Keep it up!

[@brentd2745]

Beautiful. Incredible. Engrossing. Wonderful story telling. Spectacular cinematography. Billy Yang nails it.

[@lenavalavani8887]

AMAZING!!!thanks for sharing the race-Embrace the unknown-it leads to ownership of life, many gratitudes from Greece.

[@lakecomo7762]

Agree. In Italy we say---be in the Olimpo- and I believe you are in the Olimpo of outdoor filmmakers ( Yuri Palma, Chris Burkard,...not so many!!)

[@JStompinado]

when I struggle to get that last beer down....this film is my motivation.....Cheers Billy!!

[@cyclox73]

If I could give this a thousand thumbs up I would! Absolutely fantastic Billy!

[@bbjonas4233]

Watching Tim kiss that rock brought me to tears. There's something so beautiful about the human spirit. Thank you for this.

[@DSAfgv]

Thanks for the inspiration, Tim! I stumbled on your video a couple of years ago about how you got into running. Suffice to say, I immediately connected with you as my struggle was similar. And running, in many ways, has saved my life too. My best to you and your beautiful family.

[@brianpharder]

Timothy Olson is always inspiring, not so much when he is crushing the competition as he has done numerous times, but rather when he's digging inhumanly deep to get through the dark times like he has at HR. Very emotional film for me. Brilliant, Billy.

[@ShaunKjar]

I want to be like Tim! Great video of a Wild and Tough guy matched against an incredible race.

[@erin9963]

I just found your channel the other day - and holy hell, you are amazing! Unbelievably fantastic production and quality, SO inspirational... these films are reviving my love of running, as well - makes me want to start running trails! :P

[@aidanrector2909]

Beautifully shot and edited. Another classic Billy film. Thank you.

[@robmorley2895]

Amazing work again Billy!! Great film maker for this sport!

[@hanna_charlotte_b]

Another fantastic one Billy - just love it! Thank you for all your heart & work you bring to this planet! Talk to you soon! Best wishes, Hanna

[@DanStone1025]

another fantastic film Billy. Tim is one of many inspirations that keep us lesser runners motivated to keep pushing through the miles. Was nice meeting you in Forrest Hill this year at WS100.

[@joetatto1388]

Congratulation to Timothy for his running to finish line and for Billy making this video..bravo both of you..

[@caniultrarun859]

This is so inspirational - Who are the 233 thumbs down?! WTF! I'm due to run my first ultra in July 2021 and cannot wait, watching films like this are such a pick me up when training seems like hard work. Im documenting the journey, and hope I could make a video even 10% as good as this! Keep up the great work.

[@haitianhendrix]

Finally did my first trail race. This video has been a great inspiration to me!❤

[@Lumpydog]

Love your films Billy. Had to watch this one again. Getting prepared to pace a friend at a 100 mile next weekend. I Watched this for motivation. Thanks for doing what you do. Cheers.

[@ipdavid1043]

Thanks. Billy, for bringing us all the joy, pain, emotions, all the ride of the life of each of the greatest..because this is life...and inspirational...TO is THE man!

[@paweluk8265]

Who know... maybe for few years... I love trial running :) Thanks for your movie. Regards

[@ejarroyo]

Dude! Rad film. Rad runners. Inspiring story. Absolutely amazing. Shared this on the Terrain Trail Runners facebook page. They are doing an amazing job of supporting trail and ultra-running in Missouri where I live. I'm sure they will appreciate the film and story as well! WooWoo!

[@elementsofdaisy]

Billy, thank you for making these videos. I always like going back and rewatching them. Every time I rewatch a video I learn or see a new message I need to receive at the very moment. Your videos help me push through my training. Thank you! 🙏

[@wideawake914]

I see what you mean, after 10 years away from running with problems, I've started back and I loved the comment of Timothy, something is coming alive in me.

[@martinbloksa3998]

Thank you very much!! Your films about ultrarunning are very specific for whole community of runners! In every one film all is said.

[@TONYGTONYG]

It takes a special kind of person. Congratulations Billy. Tony

[@Ret17]

[@BillyYang]

[@jbeech01]

Billy Yang Films Great film! Loved it!!

[@wattlebeeproject7699]

[@ethanhuffman5020]

That nearly made me cry lol I want to make a run like that. It’s impressive! I hope to be strong and determined and motivational like that for my kids and for others! Good job no great job no wonderful job lol tremendous!!!!

[@nikcooper877]

Yet another epic BY film. So so good.

[@IronmanS4]

I pretty much dropped my early afternoon To-Do's to watch this and am so glad I did. Truly outstanding effort man ! Timothy and Killian , imho, are the best ambassadors in our sport. Both have risen to Legend status , yet remain genuinely humble and grounded. Can't wait to watch this again on our new 4K beast at home. Your shot selection and POV is getting stronger dude-which in turn is making the narrative very effective. Solid !!

[@iancampbell2247]

Billy - you nailed it again... great cinematography - awesome!!!

[@njaneardude]

Another great Billy Yang video! Loved it!

[@clayleitch2639]

Another home run Billy!! Beautiful and powerful story. Congrats Tim Olson!!
