WORLD Mountain Running Championships: Jim Walmsley, Hayden Hawks, David Sinclair, Mario Mendoza Jr.

World Mountain Running Championships in Argentina are all wrapped up now, what a great weekend of racing and grit by all the athletes from around the world. 38 nations were represented at this year's World Mountain Running Championships, and it was a battle from start to finish by all of the talented runners who put their skills to the test against the mountains of Patagonia. Jim Walmsley, Hayden Hawks, David Sinclair, and Mario Mendoza led the charge for the United States of America at the World Mountain Running Championships. The battle was on with Spain but in the end, the Spaniards pulled out the victory. We will be back for more battles with these incredible mountain runners next year in the Canary Islands at next year's edition of the World Mountain Running Championships. Onward and Upward!

An AMAZING day of GLOBAL running competition! What a battle between USA and SPAIN. Thanks for watching all these vlogs from Argentina, make sure you share this one with your running friends, it's time to inspire the world! Onward and Upward

[@cedricvranken5420]

Thanks to you for the coverage!

Great coverage Seth ..jim walmsley #legend

[@miha5618]

So you're coming to Slovenia soon? X)

[@jeancater1388]

Never fear that your vlog is too long. I can watch amazing runners all day!!

[@rgdos1162]

Walmsley makes me nerd out watching him run! He's a track star trapped in an ultra runners mind.

[@maxicba33975]

the bus driver shows how kind we are Argentines... Amazing video of my country seth and amazing Championship !!! Jim its a beast !!

[@runningwithmarc]

That was really *FUN* to watch all them runners, totally with you on not just racing at events and supporting, I love doing that also and filming at them. Great video Seth

[@CAIrondad]

Seth, you crack me up! Your enthusiasm is just like when we met up at the Pikes Peak Ascent on Marathon day when you were running and filming on the Barr Trail after taking second on Saturday. I love your enthusiasm! As to who the person is? It's you! You have motivated me and injected a spark of enthusiasm that I am so grateful for. Thank you for all you do. we are so blessed through your work!😎😂🍇😉🍉😜

[@latexgeneration]

The excitement of the event transpired in this vlog for sure. I love that you were supporting not only your teammates, but the other runners as well! You represented not only your country, but the running community with grace. Thank you! 🙏

[@kimwrinkle100]

Awesome footage, Seth! QD: The amazing Bill Rodgers allowed me to train with him and live above his running store (and work in the store!) in the summer of 1980. We have remained great friends, and witnessing his discipline and his love for people has inspired me throughout these many years of running. Go, Bill Rodgers!

[@Russellditsworth332]

That is awesome Kim!!! Sounds likesome great stories there!

[@suzannelaburt2641]

Boston Billy, one of the best humans on the planet!

[@kimwrinkle100]

Russell Ditsworth Absolutely! Bill Rodgers is as genuine as they come! Such a wonderful man and inspirational runner! 👍👍

[@anthonygollan831]

had tears in my eyes when you were swapping stuff with the aussie. as an aussie living away from home. so surprising, running is such a great team sport.

[@Rush1869]

Love your energy and positive feedback/advice to the runners! I’m a recently certified running coach (with still a lot to learn) and constantly seeking new training courses and wats I can improve as a coach. Your excitement while cheering them on is what it’s all about!

[@paladis]

Seth your coverage of this race was mind blowing, never knew about the world championships...I'm now hooked, thank you for getting there and showing us this amazing event!!!!!

[@natalielawyerchick]

Wow. I forgot how much I missed cheering my teammates on in track in college. That was 13 years ago. Thank you for this.

[@isaacmartinez3605]

QD: my high school coach has helped me so much. I am now a college runner at the naia level. My high school coach took me from a 5:40 miler my freshman year to a 16:35 5k, 10:04 3200m, and 4:37 mile. I will forever be great for him

[@musclelessfitness2045]

Don't forget that you put in the hard work. Your coach was probably just doing his job and you were just another one of his students.

[@algorerhyth]

Your kids are going to be amazing .. the way you encourage these runners is so inspiring Seth.

[@robotheology]

If I would have Seth cheering me like that I would qualify for the Olympics, no doubt about it.

[@katifitchick]

same! love his encouraging spirit!

[@glennfabian]

Its like an energy boost. Hahah

[@syrthdr09sybr34]

Apparently I'm the only one here who finds it annoying. Having someone run along side me screaming, actually makes me want to stop.

[@robotheology]

@@syrthdr09sybr34 You may be right. I never had it happening in an actual race (or run), so don't know for sure how I would feel. It just felt good watching it done to ohters :)

[@syrthdr09sybr34]

@@robotheology Hope someone does it to you in your next race then, lol

[@thedolenorway]

Beautiful vlog! I just love watching Jim Walmsley running, there's something hypnotic about his running form!

[@neilpent]

Dag Ole Kristoffersen I know right!?! It’s a little different, I can’t quiet describe it. He has a strong kick back.. his heels almost touch his bum

[@theslightlyrecklesstrailru1546]

I think we can learn by watching good runners.

[@markv2087]

No matter how fast, he always appears a bit in slow motion ... as he whips past people.

[@neilpent]

Mark V yeah, I think he has a longer stride than most, so it looks slow. But it works. His height is definitely an advantage

[@brianshilloby1411]

Fascinating to watch, hes so lanky but his form is excellent and it almost looks like hes running in slow motion 😂💪

[@DanRuns]

I love your words of encouragement and support of the runners. Great documenting of the journey and experience Seth

[@Runin619]

What a great video! You can hear joy and excitement in your voice throughout. Safe travels back home!

[@davidmarbut]

Seth thank you so much for capturing this. I hope the team appreciates it! 🇺🇸

[@jorgevera4648]

QD: My Dad has been my running inspiration and mentor throughout my running journey. Pops and I both serve actively and currently in the US Army and have to run for tests and assessments, but we enjoy it because it allows us to be outside and say “we did that.”

[@eriktred]

Your enthusiasm is contagious!

[@jbsserrano]

I think that was my favorite vlog so far in the last three years. It had the greatest trail runners in the last two years at least for the USA minus a couple of guys and it’s exciting to see. Thank you for the blog great job on the run and hope you made it to Houston Marathon. This Saturday I just did a long run still trying to build aerobic base preparing for 2020.

[@01borja]

Nice coverage as always Seth!!! Good job Spain!!!!! 🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸👏👏

[@michaeldaly9473]

Had to watch this again Jim is incredible, great footage as well !

[@danielmartinezalonso74]

Cheers to Oriol Cardona from Spain who finished third in the classic trail running race! And congratulations Seth again on producing a vlog with such a beautiful quality and inspiration!

[@brotherofalex]

Seth, that was so fun. It was great to get these insider (and informed!) vantage points from a relatively obscure mountain trail race not many can feasibly attend. Thanks for making the effort to plan your spectating, pull out the camera, hustle, and especially to keep track of placements and time gaps. It was a rush to view-actually view!-that race unfold in the span of a few minutes. A hearty congratulations to yourself and the other USA team members for all your hard work down in the land of silver.

[@Vonblargen]

QOTD: My dad, an accomplished ultra runner, has been absolutely invaluable in my training and my development as a runner. Not only is he my coach, but he's crewed me numerous times, including my first 100 mile finish last month. Having that kind of support is really what makes this crazy sport worthwhile for me.

[@karenjennings7340]

Thanks so much for filming this. I loved watching it (and your other videos).

[@joaopatatas1880]

Oh man i just didn't want the vlog to end... You're such an inspirational person Seth!!

[@Cyclist_Runner]

Thanks for the vlog! Really nice to give us the insights, get home safe!

[@DaveReinholdTV]

Unbelievable footage. Has to be one of my favorite videos. Totally pumped up right now. I want to run again!!!! Love it

[@wrxzboost]

this was an epic vlog. if you didn't qualify for these championships, someone should have hired you to showcase and help promote this sport the way you are - you inspire big time!

[@francescodefendi3201]

Epic day...epic vlog! Bravo Seth! Happy for my italian team! Great job

[@brentransom5300]

I was lucky enough to meet and become good friends with Connie Gardner. She has a resume that speaks for its self. Connie trains with me and my son who I push through races in a running wheelchair. Connie ran with us through our first marathon and talked with my son ( who is 9 years old and has special needs) the whole time. We get to race our first 50k together on Saturday and Connie is the race director. Connie Gardner is a truly special person and has become a part of our family. With Connies help we my son and I will be going for the 24 hour push team mileage record next year. None of this would be possible with out Connie Gardner’s kindness and willingness to help others. Go USA!!!

[@monikad5561]

Seth you are THE MAN! I am so glad I subscribed to your channel! This was such a nice treat you being there at the Championships. It felt like I was running next to Walmsley and Hayden and all the other awesome athletes! Thank you so much for sharing this and for bringing these races so close to us. You and your work are very much appreciated! Safe travels ~ always! 🤘🏼

[@adrimansvelder7875]

Seth, oh my! Thank you!!!! This is inspiring, and fantastic that you were out there to capture the moments of team USA. It must be very very exiting to be there! Enjoy the celebrations and safe flight back home! No question of the day? :)

[@adamskyeblank]

The filming on this is some of the best ive seen of mountain running!!!!!! congrats Walmsley

[@timparkruns5476]

Loved your energy in filming your fellow runners! Great video Seth!

[@aitorarotzena2550]

QD: for sure my dad has been the one that has taken car of me in this running world. I started running thanks to him and this Sunday I'm running a marathon next to him! And wow Seth! That race footage is amazing. It's great you being there so that we can see lots of images of the race!! Thanks a lot!

[@meznine44]

Great video! Really enjoyed the spirit. QD: Gene Grace. As a young runner in my teens (he in his 40s) he would run countless runs and long runs with me and paced me in my first marathon at age 16. I later was able to return the favor in the Knickerbocker 60k a bit later where he did great! He was a mileage beast and great gentle motivator.

[@chrisstaley5660]

Thanks for cheering for our team!!

[@jg8526]

Jim smashed it!! 🤪👌 I wonder how he would finish finale in Nepal 😏 Seth, thank you for this amazing shots and commets 🤙😁

[@jericoleandrocortado9735]

Nepal was too technical. I'm pretty sure he'll play catch up to the euros. But that would've been fun to watch to say the least.

[@frauhorn]

this is my favourite SJD vid yet. So much passion along with the great shots

[@settlers33]

I was given a $2000.00 athletic development award in 1998 MN. After being Minnesota Male runner of the year. I was very appreciative of this!

Woo! Great content as always Seth! Enjoy the journey home!

[@neilpent]

Hi Seth, thank you!! This is amazing coverage of an event that was otherwise hard to get feedback from!! Two runners from my local club here in Ottawa represented!! Can you comment on Walmsleys running form?? He has somewhat of a unique form. Having seen it in person, I would be interested on your take 😃

[@theslightlyrecklesstrailru1546]

Neil McCallum good question!

[@kayhammond4743]

Shinzo Kobayashi in Japan inspired me. He started running in his 40s, runs marathons, and became number one in Japan in the marathon in his 80s. He taught me to value running more than the finishing time.

[@jeansabater3916]

THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO!

[@dkphysique007]

Your best vlog so far love the support. TEAMPLAYER

[@donnabrowder2431]

QD....I am inspired by friend and amazing marathoner and ultra runner, Michael Wardian. Like you, he goes above and beyond to encourage all runners regardless of ability.......very humble in spite of his many incredible running achievements. I'm also inspired by Marion Childress who leads C&C Runners, a running support group of over 1,000 based in Roanoke, Virginia. Richard Browder, age 77

[@jessejamesjohnston]

Amazing upfront footage Seth!✌

[@chrisstaley5660]

I concur... Epic Day!!

[@htmonaro1969]

I was fortunate enough to get invited to train with a satellite coaching program of the Australian Institute of Sport in my early to mid 20s. My coach, Geoff Walker, was a Steeple chaser and 10000m runner who had run at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics with the great Ron Clark (look him up, he broke 18 world records in the 1960s). Geoff was a really good coach, as he was sensitive to our issues and would send us home from the track if he thought we were on the edge of injury from over training. I now coach my 19 yr old son, trying to pass on to him the same strategies that Geoff used with me 35 years ago. My son is starting to get it, having just broken his HM by over 6 minutes, just 10 weeks after running his first HM. Next goal, a medal at the Victorian Country Championships in the Open 10000m. He's starting to trust my translation of the Geoff Walker method.

[@abbieburke2945]

QOD: my coach in fifth grade for track he got me to love the sport of running and he still cheers for me today even though he’s not my coach because his daughters on my cross country team and its just gives me lotta motivation when I see him and of course all my teammates push me to get better but have fun at the same time

way to be a good teammate out there Seth!

[@suzannelaburt2641]

Another great race coverage video Seth!!! Thank you so much for your unique "perspective" (up close and cheering 😀) An epic adventure to be remembered to be sure. USA will return for a re-match in all the World Mountain Championship races 2020!!!

[@trainwellracewell]

Thanks for all the great footage from the Long Distance race. Cool to see the battle up front

[@squirrel2tube]

Old friend from high school and one of the best people I know, Ron, from Sacramento! I asked him 7 months ago if he thought I could run my first half marathon before my 47th birthday (no running experience), November 1st. He's coached me all the way and I ran my first October 6th. Second one is next Saturday! AND he turned me on to SJD?

[@schries]

Just amazing Seth! The quality and content of your VLOGS blow my away! Thank you bro! QTD Have a few dads on my sons lacrosse team and we're always sharing ideas and filling each other in on our runs...

[@gunnarfontaine7047]

All of those guys are absolute studs. Jim's uphill form looked much more explosive then all the others

[@lisarunsfast7368]

Fantastic footage of the races Seth! So exciting to watch! Beautiful day there too! I’ve met many friends that have cheered me on at races, my husband paced and cheered for me at my race yesterday! That meant a lot to me and yes, I ran a PR!

[@Dinjolino]

Great job man, doing this for your teammates, cheering and supporting them like that. Also, great video. Way to go, Seth! Shout out from Slovenia!

[@phl0w666]

QD: No one in my family, nor circle of friends runs or is even remotely interested in (my) running. Except for my wife. She doesn't run but shows genuine interest in my endeavour.

[@MrSupernova111]

Its such a shame that family members can care less about their own. I have the same issue except that I'm not married and truly no one gives a crap about it. But that won't stop me from running as much as I can and hopefully as soon as we step out of this pandemic I can start traveling to participate in as many events as possible. If my family won't support me then I'll find my own running family. Cheers!

[@campbe00]

This one’s special, Seth! Funny the chairlift cost you a chance to catch the photo finish but seeing that descent was remarkable. See ya back in the states 🇺🇸

[@ShaileenandKurt]

Cant wait until I can run up something like that and think of the word relaxed lol. Thanks for capturing this. Way cool to see!

[@jayhova]

That USA jersey is so sweet.

[@kylesautter8555]

QD: my wife definitely. She motivates me every day to be a better person and a better runner. She is a grinder and I try to be just like her in my running. AMY SAUTTER your a beast of a runner and I love it!!

[@Josh_Stringer]

Do you guys talk about what encourages each other in the middle of the race? For instance, do Hayden and Jim and others prefer the "you're doing great" kind of encouragement? What about the camera? Does that bother them or do they like it? Just curious if you had to get their permission or preferences before hand as a courtesy or part of the team dynamic. How does that work? GREAT WORK!! Thanks for doing such a great job.

[@theslightlyrecklesstrailru1546]

Joshua Stringer good questions

[@ranran3578]

Joshua Stringer I got the same thinking. For me, that may bother me :(

[@michaelmcginley7930]

Stupid to run two marathons prior to rsce.scuppered your chances before you ran.as an experienced runner you probably knew that.you should have let someone run in your place who cares about team events. Sorry but true

[@chrisdick726]

Great coverage Seth! Thank you. QD My fellow run bud Sheila. We have trained and run many of the same races. Sharing our runs gives motivation but she is also encouraging spiritually as well in my life.

[@jcdc9581]

My high school coach kickstarted it in an amazing fashion! I didn’t begin until I was 16. My first year my 5k time was around 24mins. But my second year I was up to 18 minutes! I even made it to NY states in 2019 as an alternate 😄 I know I didn’t run in the states competition but just being there was an accomplishment on its own!
