I thought you looked familiar today seeing you at the airport in Calgary. I was sitting across from you watching you cry hard and saying your mama passed away just recently! Awe hun my condolences on the passing of your mom. My god have mercy on what you do.

That’s so cool. I wish I can go.

That’s so cool!

Delicious

Haha loved this! They came out so great, it looks so natural!

Thank you for trusting Dr. Tiner and our team. It was an honor to help you regain confidence in your smile!

Please...for your own sake...stay in Texas! Forget Kilimanjaro!!! Stay on a sidewalk!!

Please...for you

Location?

Great job completing THE most brutal hike in the US! I think you guys would love getting out of those stiff, restrictive boots, and into something by Vivo Barefoot. You'll be amazed at how great it feels to have a wide toe box, an extremely light and flexible shoe, and crazy amounts of grip and balance. Would make for excellent content.

Amazing

Love this! I wish you had more video to watch too. I wanted to hike rim to rim when I was your age. I dreamed of it all the time. Unfortunitly I never got that oppurtunity. And now that I am much older, it might be more than I could do. Of course, you never know...I have questions. First of, was it extremely challenging? Vigorous? How long did it take? How far & fast did you go each day? What time of year did you do it in? I think you are AMAZING for it too!! Thanks for sharing.😉👍♥️

Hey guys! I've been backpacking in the Canyon since 2007 and I started running Rim2Rims there in 2015, age 53 with my then 16yr old daughter. We ran R2R every year on our birthdays, which are 1 day apart, mid-Aug, 5yrs in a row, and then I started doing a 2nd one, in early Oct. I've now done 12, and was just there 3 weeks ago to run my 5th Rim2River: czcams.com/video/vhz72W_aZKg/video.html I'll be back again, mid-Aug to do another R2R. I do them as cross-country runs, so no poles, no walking. If I may offer you some suggestions: -Do not do this hike in June. This is something that "we" do in mid-April through the end of May, or from mid-August, just after their monsoon season, through the end of Oct. It's extremely dangerous to be down in the Canyon in June and July, and there is no way to do the math, and not be in the hottest parts of the Canyon, during the hottest times of the day, when doing a double crossing. The heat is brutal, because you've got sun at high altitude (less filtering by the atmosphere), arid desert conditions, and rock that is radiating heat like an oven, all day, and all night. And especially at the travel speed associated with "walking" your exposure time will be dangerous. The people that need rescue, or don't survive in the Canyon, are the ones who disregard the exposure, the time duration, and the heat, and of course, they have no way of even fathoming how brutal the 10,000 mule steps up over logs are rocks actually are, let alone that those are being done at altitude, in the heat, and while in an oven. I have a save of people like this, almost every time I'm there. -Do not wear leggings, or take any extra clothing. During the months I've mentioned that are good, you'll be "a little chilly" for maybe 2 minutes as you get started, maybe. Then you have have get undressed, and carry extra clothing that you never use, for the entire rest of the day. Bulk in a pack, and of course weight, adds up quickly in the Canyon because your legs have to "brake" that weight as you step down from one awkward mule step, to the next, and you have to "lift up" that weight, as you step up over those steps. Especially if you were to wind up going in June or July, where the overnight temps at the top of the South Rim (your starting time temps) will be in the 60's. -Don't wear clothing or hats that expose your skin to the sun, other than your shorts. Ball caps fry your face, ears, and neck. Tank tops and short sleeve shirts do the same. It's not a question of, "I'll be fine, I'll put on 50spf." It's about having the sun actually on your skin... high altitude sun, in the desert. In the Canyon, you want white or very light colored, long sleeve, dri-fit shirts. Keeps the sun off, ventilates extremely well, doesn't become a heavy swamp with sweat, and bonus points... you don't have to carry 50spf, so you save weight, and you don't have that chemical on your skin, blocking sweat flow. For a hat, consider the Sunday Afternoons "Compass" hat, or something similar with a rigid full brim. Sun stays off your face, ears, and neck and the rigid brim allows airflow to keep your head cool, that the hats with a rear curtain, or the new "fashion-sport-hoodies" don't offer. -Don't wear hiking shoes or boots in the Canyon, and especially not a shoe that's gortex or waterproof. The shoe for the Canyon is a trail runner with a wide toe box, like something from Alta, laced for downhill work, with a pair of Injinji smart wool toe socks, to prevent your toes from rubbing and blistering. The best shoe in the Canyon is something like the Vivo BareFoot Primus Trail FG, or a XeroShoe. Shoes that are light, allow your toes to splay out like a hand and sort of grab the logs and bolders you'll walk over, and allow full articulation of the ankle, which prevents rolling of the ankle or spraining the ankle. Boots and stiff hiking shoes are horrible in the Canyon and if you watch enough vids on YT of people in boots/stiff hiking shoes, you'll see that those shoes are restricting the natural movement of the feet and ankles, you'll see the people sort of bobbling along, always on the verge of being off balance or falling, and you'll see many people have unlaced the tops, so now their lower leg is doing one thing, and foot and the boot are doing another. A waterproof shoe in the Canyon will be soooooo hot. -Watch what you bring for food, because some items will not digest well as the stomach sort of, or completely shuts down due to exertion. Consider something like the RecPak, and things like peeled tangerines, fresh, very ripe pineapple, etc. Bring a couple 5hr Energy Drink bottles because they'll be a life saver when the wheels start to come off... 2 for each of you. Add magnesium lysinate pills to your drink refills, on every refill, and consider 1 or 2 vitamin B complex 100 pills, per each of you. -Keep everything as light as possible, and that includes water weight. All weight in the Canyon destroys your legs, even on the downhill. So look at the NPS website a day or 2 before you arrive, and learn which water stations are open, and only carry enough water to get to each. Learn how much water you need, by practicing that skill in your training. For example, if you were to start in, by going down the South Kaibab (k-eye-bab) Trail, it's 6.5mi and a 5,000' drop to the Black Bridge. 200m after the exit off the bridge, is the water station on Boat Beach. In your training, based on travel speeds, figure out how much water you'd really use, at 3am to 5am, getting from the top of the Canyon, to Boat Beach. Can you do it with just 8oz? 16oz? And only take that much; it's cooler, it's in the dark, and you're cruising along. It's 1 mile from Boat Beach to Phantom Ranch Canteen, and their water spigot out front. It's 7.25mi from Phantom to Cottonwood Camp Ground, and the spigot there. It's 1.5mi from there, to Manzanita Rest Stop, and the spigot there. From Manzanita, it's 3.5mi to the spigot at Supai (Sue-pie) Rest, and then it's 2mi to the spigot at the trail head on the North Rim. On the return, exit via Phantom to Silver Bridge (there's water .25mi away at Bright Angel Campground, and .25mi after that, or less, at the trail junction and bathrooms, just before the mule pens and heli-pad, just before Silver Bridge. Then 4.5mi to Havasupai (Have-A-Sue-Pie) Garden (formerly Indian Garden). After HG, there is water every 1.5 miles (3mi Rest House and 1.5mi Rest House). -The Canyon is vast, and extra exposure is a day wrecker. Keep a move-on, and don't stop for every flower and lizard you see, especially in the beginning when you are starry-eyed and full of wonder and joy. There is plenty to see, and the Canyon doesn't let up. -One last tip. The toilet paper in that region of Arizona is similar to sand paper. I highly recommend you take "A&D Ointment" with you, including on your R3, and use it after every interaction with toilet paper. Otherwise, you're going to be very miserable. I hope this has been helpful. There are more specifics posted on my channel below the video of my run there in '22 with my daughter.

Lovely upload guys, your content is always appreciated and simply captivating!

BTW I used the DJI Osmo pocket 3 for the majority of filming this video but as you can hear, the audio wasn't always coming out of both ears for some reason (L/R). I checked it every time and it said connected but clearly something wasn't right. I liked the gimbal on it but TBH don't recommend it. I feel like a GoPro can do basically the same thing! Just my POV!

🐐

Thanks for the video. Unfortunately, this type of packing only works in the U.S. - in Europe/Asia there are stricter weight restrictions - max 7 kg.

I love ❤️ sharks 🦈

Underrated? Its one of the mighty 5.

Indeed

Have a great audition Tape I really enjoyed Team Grey Team Texa TAR Season 35 Team holidays

Everything about this audition tape was so natural and wholesome! Loved how you both played off of each other’s strengths so well throughout the race. Watching this really inspired me to one day consider applying for the show with my person! Team Texas crushed S35 and really hope you both get to compete in an all star season 🌎 🗺️

Loved watching you on the show, now go do THE CHALLENGE 😂❤

Loved watching you guys and seeing your incredible relationship!!! Congratulations on making it as far as you did!

Great audition tape! I’m glad you had fun while making it. I really enjoyed watching you both on the Amazing Race, congrats on making it far 😊👏

Best cast was the Afgan Brothers 😅

Anna Leigh was awful, I hope she got counseling

Love you so much guys Team Grey

Love you guys!!!

Very nice but in winter not possible for me.. am asthmatic and need very warm things..and extra meds❤ do you inc a laptop? How much is weight and dimensions of your personal item as would it work for Wizz Norwegian Easyjet etc please as a personal item only.

OMG if you are watching this and looking for advice, do the opposite of what they do. 11am start. Geeze…

What a relatable and helpful video! I can totally relate to the frustration of scoring a cheap flight only to be hit with unexpected baggage fees. Your tips on packing a personal item efficiently are going to be a game-changer for so many travelers. I appreciate how you not only shared your personal packing techniques but also provided links to the items you mentioned in the video. It makes it much easier for viewers to find and purchase the products you recommend.

Thanks for the video! I am hoping to make the trip to Colorado in August 2023. I want to take this same hike. I will be driving a small 25 ft RV. Will there be room to park it to make the hike?

What about all those liquids that are not in a 1 qt bag?

.

🦋

What happened with the airline rule rules of maximum 100 ml size liquids in a carry on?

Hello! Did you feel like most restaurants were dressy?

If you're flying, don't pack your jacket, carry it on, cause planes get cold. That frees up room in your suitcase or back pack

Where is your little grey sweater/cardigan from? So cute

I enjoyed your video very much. I have become obsessed with packing in a small backpack and i can actually do it with room to spare. We don’t need nearly as much as we think we do. Thank you for such a well thought out video. I hope you had a great trip.

Can you give us the name of those crop tops again? Where to purchase? Thx. Very good video

I love your hair!! is it natural or do you curl it that way? what products do you use? my hair is super curly but I can’t get it to hold.

You REALLY REALLY underfilled the cubes! they are compression cubes not expansion cubes! i can't believe how badly you packed! roll the items tightly and NEATLY and you used cubes far too large for the items you put in them! you clearly have zero idea about what the function of cubes are! you literally shoved the items in! you don't need space saver in a compression cube! this is CLEARLY nothing to do with the packing it is to do with those awful ugly cubes, the bag and case and the items linked to make you cash! that tiny amount of stuff would easily fit in a small tote! you packed too many liquids and broke the liquids rules! you are only allowed 10x100mls so 1 litre in total and you MUST put it into a clear bag 20x20cm's! why are you putting liquids in a clothes cube! you didn't pack a capsule wardrobe! you threw a few bits onto the bed! you hardly packed anything! you are one of the worst packers on youtube! of course it isn't full as you hardly took anything but you still broke the law!

Always wondered how the vacuum bags are used when packing to return home... I love my packing cubes.

Can we put flat irons/curling iron on personal item bag? Thanks

Your so pretty, beautiful hair and skin! First impressions

The compression cube and the space saver bags are not the same thing. You don’t put space saver bags in these type cubes. The cubes you have are not expandable. They are meant to be double zipped and it pushes the air out. You don’t need the space saver bags with these. There are packing cubes and compression cubes. You have compression cubes.

Do these discount airlines check the weight of your carry-on bag? Thanks :)
