ULTRA Mindset | Ultra Running Motivational Journey

- Ultra running goes beyond the physical feat, it is a mental journey, it is an Ultra Mindset. It is an Ultra challenge within your head and it starts every morning with determination, dedication and discipline to confront the early wake up call and head out into the cold. It is a challenge that forces you to balance every every aspect of your life: your family, your job, yourself and your training. It is not easy and requires character to prepare for Ultras. This film takes you into my early wake up calls, and like for you, these are not easy for me either. We are all in the same boat grinding through the pain.

I got up at 04:00 on Sunday to run up a mountain in the cold rain...
Fantastic, life doesn't get any better!
I felt so tired when dragging myself out of bed and then so good during the run and finished by lunchtime! 👍
Awesome mate! Kudos to you! That’s the spirit! That dopamine spike is the best!
Osteo took my knees. At the point of no more pain. Thank you, brother for this video.
Thanks for watching! 🙌
"you have to chose the difficult path to make life easy". As beautiful as your cinematography is, it is your narrative and the motivation i draw from it that keeps me watching and re-watching your videos. Bravo, Sir.
A heartwarming comment thanks a lot Andrew 🙏 really appreciate the support!
Good Luck with that 2023 marathon
🙏
What a fantastic little film. I'm 57 with an 8yr old daughter, I can relate! 😁
Thanks a lot Ian! Really appreciate your kind words. It’s defenitely not easy to go ultra with a family. It’s a grind. I did a few more films and more to come along the same lines of grinding through. Just completed the Swiss Alps 100 a couple of weeks ago and will be doing a film on that one as well.
@@rafaelhidalgo I've watched some of your other films and really enjoyed them also. In 2019 I had enough points for CCC but was not lucky twice in the lottery. I love watching the Alps films but all my efforts are for a race in the UK called Arc of Attrition100 in January. It's about as far from the crisp, blue sky air of the Alps as you can get!
My family would all like to go to Chamonix for a week of training and adventure though.
@@ianl4518 awesome! Good luck with that race! If you are looking for some organised training in chamonix, this company offers this www.contrastes-running.com/stage-entrainement-course-a-pied-chamonix-2021
Great video as are all of them. Training myself for the autumn/Winter season in Puglia/Campania here in south Italy
Thanks Alan! Kudos to you! All the best!
Hey Mr. Hidalgo,
I just want to say that i enjoy your videos so much. You inspired me to do trail running myself. I'm now training to do the matterhorn ultraks in Zermatt. I thought you might like to hear how much you inspired me. I hope that i can achieve what you have achieved.
Waw thanks Simon. I think this must be one of the most heartwarming comments I have ever received. I’m super stoked that you have found that motivation to take the step to take on the Alpine Titans. Ultraks is probably one of the most beautiful settings for trail running. Reading your message inspires me to continue. Sometimes I wonder whether my efforts are worth it, and whether I should just run without doing films, but reading your message re-energizes me to continue. If I can inspire even one person, it’s already worth it. Thanks for taking the time to drop me these lines and enjoy the 🏔️ 🙏
@@rafaelhidalgoThe only thing i can say is "keep up the amazing videos." i know it must be a lot of work to make the videos but i really enjoy them. I'm only a 19 year old student and to see you is a big inspiration. How you combine work, family and training is a great example to me. I'm 3 moths into training and made it up to 15km at a pace of 6min/km so im very impressed with myself but without your passion i would be this far. I will be looking forward to more videos and i will let you know when i finished the ultraks. Keep it up and thank you!
@@simonleeman7884 thanks! It’s great to see so much drive at your age! Bravo! I was also running at around 6min/km a couple of years ago, and even slower than that. You will be going faster don’t worry. In any case in Ultras, speed is not the objective, it’s getting to the finish, so dont worry too much about your pace. Ensure you get some elevation gain in your training, and also include some strength training for the legs. Keep it up!
@@simonleeman7884 here are the exercises I do at least twice a week czcams.com/video/3Yom0gumNTc/video.html
@@rafaelhidalgo thanks for all the tips! I know that speed isn't important, now focussing on the duration and i will certainly do the exercises you recommended. Thanks a lot for your help!
Très belle vidéo Raf ! Tu nous montre toute la motivation qu'il faut pour bien commencer la journée et faire les trails ! BRAVO !
Merci Lorenz!! 🤗
Bravo encore une fois amigo !
Tu montres l'exemple à tous ! Hâte de pouvoir repartir à l'aventure avec toi très bientôt pour courir après les orages cette fois 😁
Yes papa! Merci! Bientôt un autre type d’aventure en effet!! ⛈
Excellent! Well done. I am convinced this will be the year I try a marathon. I have a 30k in May and hoping to add a marathon in September
Awesome! Dont give up on your dreams and aspirations!
5:30! You slept in lol
Haha indeed
