Western Stories: clips from the 2016 Western States 100 mile race

[@HeartPumper]

Most definitely the best part of mankind & human nature over here. Huge Thank you all, who contributed to Sage's video. And to himself for putting it all together!!! You're the best tribe ever!

[@owenf9793]

Absolutely great stuff. Interviewing people while running is a great idea. So many positive smiles

[@COYSMike]

Its lovely to see you giving attention and time to the 'ordinary' people running WS. Although noone that takes part in WS should be deemed ordinary, they're all heroes.

[@paulsackles1329]

Monumental effort to get this stitched together ! Great job. Best of luck at UTMB man !!

Thanks for sharing Sage, very interesting to see both elite and "ordinary" runners going through this adventure ! A thought for this year WSER runners and best of luck for your UTMB training ! See you in Chamonix.

[@annachock2121]

Awesome video - one of my favorites of yours so far. Thanks for the effort to piece the interviews together!

[@Simonberleau]

Love it, Sage! So nice to combine your story with those other interesting stories!

[@nberkel]

Loved this vid and footage! Great to see the interviews and talking to people of all skill levels and hear the excitement building. Can't wait to see you conquer this race in the near future!

[@JAHinHK]

Amazon video. Thank you.

[@ultrarunneradam]

love the final cut off moments!

[@FTStratLP]

Very impressing effort you made during the race, Sage! And a great video footage! What was the reason you decided to fill the bottles with plain water rather than with electrolyte?

[@cedrictorres4577]

Hi Sage! Can you maybe make a video talking about tall runners? Are there any disadvantages to being taller (say over 6 feet tall) as a distance runner, for example mechanical or form differences and is that possibly a reason why elite long distance runners over 6 feet tall are rare? I am 6 feet 2 inches tall, 22 years old have been a distance runner for 4 1/2 years and have a dream of one day qualifying for Boston. So far, I have had great performances in the 5K, 10K and 15K and soon training for my 2nd half marathon and then my 1st marathon. Thanks in advance!

[@SaschaRobitzki]

Well done, great video!

[@bradfreeman8149]

Hey Sage! how long would the base building phase last? & how much speedwork to peak for races? How would you periodise this?

[@thomaswoodworth7644]

Bravo!

[@del1313]

Also, is everyone from Marin County an ultra runner?

[@PaDutchRunner]

Thomas Paulson lol

[@JAHinHK]

Justin Clay I caught that too. Three in a row at one point.

[@HeartPumper]

[@Sergio_21M]

A "back from the dead runner" . Great comment!

[@inkjob12]

you say its a rough finish...I say it was very good. Hopefully you will come back to States to make amends. Good luck on your future races
