On a gorgeous January So Cal morning, I decided to document my run without narration, music or any other sound except for what I naturally and organically hear when I'm running trails. So come join me as I run 10+ miles through the coastal trails of the Santa Monica Mountains as I try to convey the joy and simplicity of running in nature.

These are the best type of videos. Theres is so much noise pollution in our cities, that silence is something that we should seek now and again

[@runmaver1ckrun929]

Awesome vid Billy. Well done Hillary on keeping quiet for so long. Lol. Joking. As a solo runner a do 95% of my runs alone. The theraputic value of solitude and silence nature is beyond what any book or course can fathom. It is here where you get to know yourself, where your soul touches your spirit and for those so inclined where you connect with your deity. I used to run with earpods and music. Now I just run. Sometimes I sing to the birds, sometimes I talk to myself and sometimes I solves life's mysteries. But mostly I listen. My feet on the ground. My breath in my nose. My heartbeat in my ears. My voice in my mind. My voice. My mind. My life.

[@this.too.shall_passs]

That is beautiful

[@alesiabock9305]

Very meditative. Thank you! I also loved that your camera person tried to match your footfalls so there was only one cadence. 💜

[@Simbo02]

Ray Miller never ceases to amaze. Thank you for taking us back, Billy.

[@darlingrunnerpt3342]

So beautiful. There’s no better sound than the sound of feet running on a trail. Loved this format. A very calming end to my day. Will likely watch it on repeat if having to run on a treadmill. Would be awesome to do a whole hour run. Thanks for all the hard work you put in.

[@VirtualTrailRunning]

Lots more of this type of video on my channel if you’re interested 😊

[@脱獄民〆人狼一位]

​@@VirtualTrailRunningwoooow😮

[@fitnessandthings]

Awesome scenery! I love the angle of filming with no narration, no music just the sounds of the environment around you and the crunching of each step of the run! Very cool!

[@BillyYang]

It's my favorite soundtrack when I'm trail running :)

[@wolfeb99]

We were trying to figure out where you were mic-ed to isolate your breathing and footsteps. Really well done!

[@blakeharvard7513]

More of this is always welcome. Love it.

[@BillyYang]

🤘🏼

[@BGasms]

Don’t usually comment but love this vid, very peaceful. Perfect for getting myself in the mood to run when coming back from an injury, we keep pushing ! ❤

[@BillyYang]

yes we do, good luck

[@finnjensen2472]

Pure motivation to get out there on the tracks - beautiful scenery. Thanks

[@Getsimpson]

I have been looking for a well done one of these for a long time. I love how it move from the noise of life to peacefulness of the trail. Great work! Hope to see more of them

[@thenapolitan]

Billy, amazingly cathartic and meditative. Love the grit, emotion, silence and beauty. Thank you! 🙏

[@mikes7654]

The scenery at 3:45. …….. Beautiful!! Thanks Billy 🙂👍. Keep them videos coming

[@DerekBoy27]

A masterpiece! The look of that trail and the view- priceless! Great video. Much appreciated.

[@sandstromj]

Waiting for the extended 1h+ version, would be perfect to watch on a treadmill long run. Great video, love the vibe and scenery.

[@VirtualTrailRunning]

That’s why I do what I do!

[@LuisBecerra79]

I can see this being part of a Subaru commercial 🤷🏻‍♂️. Nicely done ✅. Always a joy seeing this kind of videos 👍🏼

[@JesseLuna805]

Love this, Billy and Hilary! These are my home trails so I’ve been on them a hundred times and it is definitely my Happy Place. 😊

[@lovethyANGELS]

Where is it. Can you send a maps link where to drive to?

[@ChristopheStahl]

@@lovethyANGELS It's a loop around Point Mugu that starts close to the Ray Miller trailhead in Malibu. Go up the hidden trail on the left to the park entrance. You can park for free along the PCH.

[@VirtualTrailRunning]

Awesome place to run! I need to film a long run here some time…

[@reneesuhr6447]

IMHO in the top 3 of your very best videos. Thank you. It is currently -4 degrees with a windchill of -21 where I am so I am a slave to an indoor track or a treadmill for a while; watching this is so inspiring to just keep going until the temps improve.

[@jonathanwatkins447]

My body and mind really needed this. Very chilled. Love it. Thanks Billy

[@briantwigley]

Amazing Billy, absolutely love it. So good to get away from the traffic

[@shaungriffith9764]

If you made 100 of these I'd watch every single one . Just discovered treadmill pov trail running videos! Game changer ! Thanks from frigid upstate NY Billy, this was great !!

[@BillyYang]

Appreciate it Shaun! 👊🏼

[@kathrynhilder9609]

Next time I'm injured/unable to run and I'm missing that meditative aspect of my runs, I know where to come! Thank you Billy. Amazing. 🙏

[@melissaaustin8877]

So gorgeous! Now, I need to go find this exact spot to run! I never even knew there was a trail up there! I'm so excited to run it!

[@StreamCrossingRunner]

Just ran the Ray Miller for the first time this weekend- loved seeing your footage of it! Loved this format of storytelling

[@kcc9775]

Epic trail, Epic run. Super. Got goose bumps watching. Thank you.

[@BillyYang]

🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@JTH528]

What an amazing spot. So cool to see how other people experience trail running.

[@slapfan1]

Absolutely amazing! Costal trails are my favorite, we are truly spoiled in SoCal

[@peteryun8379]

Wow this video is SO GOOD! I have never thought that I would be motivated to run outside with this kind of video. I will run TODAY! Thanks

[@BillyYang]

Perfect 👌🏼

[@azulero73]

Beautiful, thanks Billy! Ditched my earphones on this morning’s run after watching this.

[@asenhtsan1813]

I really dig this format. Something I can look at while working. Thanks!

[@leahjack2405]

I love this. Brings back lots of good feelings as I just completed a 50 miler in the Santa Monica mountains there in December. I’m still dreaming about that epic run so this video just hit the spot. Wish I could’ve ended my run in that gorgeous ocean though!

[@darrenroberts1713]

Perfect video as I ice up my plantar faciitus in snowy Michigan, the motivation I need to get healed up quick! Beautiful vid you two!🤘🏻

[@albertgoatstallion]

This style of edit is what you call art.

[@jamiemackenzie9502]

Brilliant as always.

[@essextrails]

Great bit of filming. Loved all 14 minutes of it. Thanks Billy and Hilary.

[@stanmakowski1985]

Great video! Thanks or taking us along. Just what I needed to start my day.

[@kellybaker6353]

Beautifully shot. This captures everything I love about trail running!

[@cocor7371]

Awesome, thank you Billy !

[@Alexglast]

Love your content Billy!

[@jennagreen4045]

Thank you for this great video. Really nice to put on while running on my treadmill in a snowstorm!

[@justrione]

Nailed it all

[@kevinandlisa4807]

I’d like to see more videos like this. 🙌

[@charlesbriggs9797]

Thank you! Being stuck on a treadmill in chilly PA, this made my run much more enjoyable.

[@Whookie82]

Great Vid! Thanks for the Motivation.

[@Supt3100]

Insane, Billy. That is winter in LA, huh?!? I gotta move.

[@kbville34]

Unreal scenery

[@wenhuang5969]

oh yes. i'm so putting this on my treadmill playlist

[@susanwiggins3843]

Thank you for the beautiful view Billy - especially when it is -27C, feels like -40C here today!!

[@dariuszgrebosz8801]

Perfect. The shots and pure profi. The video perfectly reflects my feelings while I am running. If you ever consider to visit Poland, assume you both have a place to stay at my home. And we have a great running event next door in June annualy.

[@kalenjifly]

5:56... that is to be a nice & good-mannered runner :)... really like that moment.

[@lovenature7823]

Beautiful! Thank you Billy.

[@Nelsonjosh24]

Probably the best ad Topo athletic has ever had.

[@stevejosepher7787]

Movie magic! Bravo.

[@julianbaker]

Crunch crunch crunch 🎼

[@Dora-bmrwarrior]

Beautiful area! I haven't been to Cali in years, I traveled there frequently for work trips...outside geology stuff. Hope to get there again someday. This is a great video for the tread. Well done!

[@bingc1432]

Nice run! Your bottle belt seems working very well, what it is ? Would like to buy one like this .

[@nullkru]

Also interested in this :)

[@andrewjknox]

Loved it mate 👌

[@kevinkim2691]

Perfecting framing for every shot!

[@Jessee112]

Awesome running spot

[@hermon297]

Keep up the content!

[@marcolkw]

This is so goood! Thanks Billy!

[@gregvale4945]

Beautiful video Billy and Hilary. Thank you. Loved it. How far did you run that day?

[@BillyYang]

Thank you! We ran a little over 10 miles :)

[@MarkGriffith]

Very nice Billy! Loved the sound of running, brought back memories of Miller vs. Hawk. AND - you missed a James Bond moment - you could have walked out of the ocean at the end shirtless ;)

[@valerieferrario44]

Love this. Thanks BILLY

[@brentd2745]

Brilliant Billy. Loved it

[@paulgibby6932]

Beautiful. Thanks!

[@joshuadavis1603]

Pure bliss!

[@MichaeMichaelMichael]

Cool video concept! Watching this while getting ready for a run. What belt do you use? I wish you uploaded more, I love your content!

[@pickostark8203]

Wow love this

[@robertmcclure3586]

That is why we run trails.

[@joaonevessantos]

Awesome footage to put us in the zone as well. What shoes were you wearing?

[@BillyYang]

Topo Athletic Mtn Racers

[@joaonevessantos]

@@BillyYang Thank you so much for your feedback! Watching you run from behind it looked to have a wide toebox as the Altras. Since I'm from Portugal I have to check if I can find them over this side of the Atlantic.

[@Dinckelburg]

Love it

[@taylorlayton4508]

Thanks for the video. I heard your name in the Wasatch 100 lottery drawing - I also got in. Hope to see you there! :) It'll be my first hundred so I'm going to get every bit of inspiration I can from your videos and example.

[@BillyYang]

fantastic Taylor - see ya there!

[@krishnananda3442]

Perfect!

[@trailfever]

Epic trails! Love it!

[@gaffertimur]

awesome!

[@hectorlopez7701]

I miss that Ray Miller trail and that sound of running on it

[@jspud1217]

Beautiful Ray Miller!

[@jakeboddington4684]

Music to my ears

[@tripppleDaddy]

More of this, pls

[@justrione]

I can dig it.

[@deshall1885]

Fantastic video

[@flashup]

I love this video. A few questions… 1- I’d love to run this route next time I’m out that way. Anyone know exactly where this is? 2- are there rattlesnakes? Like, a lot of them? 3- that belt/bottle combo looks great. Anyone know what it is?

[@bencepenzes9069]

sometimes I wonder what is wrong with me. foam rolling and watching videos like this on my rest days 😆i loved the video tho!

[@luizfellipecortat518]

Like pela trilha de sonho, pelo som ambiente, pelo som das passadas - o melhor - pelo mergulho no final e pelo Subaru! Abraço do Brasil!

[@hiroaono1205]

Nice one Billy 👊

[@augustusandrada3930]

Peaceful ❤

[@trailvoices]

You know car culture is strong when a "pure running" video starts out with 2 minutes of car footage.

[@cepheus03]

Are those some Topo mountain racer 2 I see you wearing?!!??!? My favorite trail shoe last year 😃

[@BillyYang]

Yes, same here!

[@nullkru]

Thanks Billy for this! really interested what belt and flask you're using. It seems to work very well!

[@ryskarpaty9968]

Did you know that when it comes to your videos, I give you a thumbs up first and watch them later?😃

[@kpriisholm]

Bliss.

[@The_MidwestMisfit]

Perfect.
