2019 LAKE SONOMA 50 | The Window Seat
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 05. 2019
- A behind the scenes look at my trip to Healdsburg, CA to have my second go at the notoriously relentless but beautiful Lake Sonoma 50-Mile run in preparation to race the Angeles Crest 100 Mile later this year. The race once again, chewed me up and spat me out on the end side. A thoroughly enjoyable trip nonetheless

I made the cut :) I can stop running ! Thanks Billy :)
Guillaume Audette thanks for the company brother...congrats on your first 50 mile finish!
Billy! Are you kidding me? You finished against all odds. Your body (and mind) were saying “QUIT”
Anyone who’s run, was cheering. Sometimes the body doesn’t cooperate. Your will and training were definitely there. Even when people pull out, getting to the starting line is a win.
Love the inspiration.
Wild and precious life
Great work man! I new to running. Finished my 2nd half marathon. 2:02. Beat my previous time 2:09!
Love the David Goggins shout out! That was amazing! “Who’s going to carry the boats?!” Way to go Billy. Another great video as always-love when they pop up on my feed
Thanks for making the effort to record your adventure for us. Well done.
Another amazing video Billy! I have my first 65km Ultra on June 29th here in Scotland. It’s content from you and similar people that fuel my fire, and originally got me inspired. From running the 400m in high school fairly competitively and playing rugby, you totally opened my eyes to another world and way of thinking. Huge thanks for the work you put in.
I am facing this race in 1 month! Thanks for the video Billy!
Love this. Really fun to hear somebody else say my typical "final-stretch internal dialogue" out loud.
That reverse at the end between the posts was EPIC.
Love this. I'm sure you already know this, but it's super motivational for us newbie runners to see runners at your level also struggle and have bad days!
His struggle races would be my dream to hit those times on courses like that.

Absolutely riveting Billy. Thank you. Thanks for taking the time whilst also racing to share your experience. Honestly it's mesmerising and know that every time you take the time to shoot from a different angle or use a different technique it's noticed and appreciated. Good job plowing on it. 50 mile aint no walk in the park. Peace out
Really wel-made video Billy! Two weeks ago I ran my first marathon (in 4h19) and haven't been able to run since because of an overuse injury. However, your videos have been keeping me occupied and I can't wait to start training again! Thanks for keeping runners like me inspired and I wish you the best :)
BennieTheHut oh no...congrats on your first and get better soon!
Beautiful film. Just discovered your channel and I love it. What I liked the most was that final hug. For me, its kind of what represents running in this moment of my life. The contact with nature, people that thing alike and enjoyment. Great job!
Under 10:38 on that race and you weren't happy. Dude you killed it and were filming the whole time too. Man you got amazing strength and talent.
ALways enjoy these videos Billy - thanks so much!
Bryan Sands appreciate it Bryan!
Billy, you're taking these videos to the next level
Every time I find one of your videos in list in the morning, it's like a little taste of Christmas !
Thanks for all the hard work mate !
Congrats Billy! Thanks for sharing this beautifully made video! ❤️
Hey Billy. Just found out about you and your channel a few days ago. Pretty much watched everything you have on here (It's slow in the office) and your films are brilliant and you seem like a great guy. I'm a Brit, living and working in Germany and I'm training for my first Ultra in Spain in July. It's great how you document everything involved with an event, not just the good parts but also the bad, tough and painful parts. Keep up the good work mate!
Great video as always, Billy!
Another great video. The course looks absolutely beautiful. Congrats on a great finishing time at a tough event.
I think the day I finally get to meet you Billy wont be at a race, most likely it'll be a gas station on the way to a race. You're no joke Billy, a respectable trail runner in your own right! good job buddy & thanks for the video.
Amando Cardenas well, unfortunately I DO drive a gas guzzler...but thanks Amando
Watching your films really got me into running my first Ultra soon. Keep inspiring Billy!
Watching films like this lights a fire under my ass to do more trail races.
Yes!!! Thank you Billy for another great video.
Another good one ! I especially like watching your films before heading out on Mt. Diablo because I don't think about time, I just enjoy the experience. All the best.
Congrats on the tough finish. You've got a great talent for story telling. Love the vids.
Reuben Hall appreciate you Reuben 🙏🏼
I always enjoy these, Billy!
Must feel good to have a following like you do, Billy. Congrats on another great project.
So fun! I never fail to feel nervous at the start of a race even when it’s not my own. What a beautiful course. Love your work and appreciate you showing your vulnerability, even though the retainer/Invisalign and butt cramping may not help your dating game! Keep up the great work!
I love your videos. Thanks for sharing and inspiring others!
I ran my first 50 miler two weeks after this and had a similar finish time. Feel as tough I can relate.
Way to get it done Billy! Great footage!
I've watched several of your videos, but for some reason I connected with this one a little bit more than some of the others. I'm currently trying to heal from an injury, and I really enjoy Goggins, so I think it might be time for me to suck it up and find out if I'm going to be able to go or need a doctor. Another great video, Billy. Thanks.
More awesomeness! Great work Billy!
Who’s going to carry the boat!!! This has been my mantra the last few runs...love Goggins!
I listen to his two JRE episodes like twice a week before I head out on runs that I am so not feeling. Never fails to inspire!
Thank you for that uncensored share!
well done it looked great having people pass you on the out and back section, that last run to the finish seemed long I felt for you
beautiful b roll on the race. Love your movies!
Well done Billy💪🏼😎🏃🏻♂️
Well done Billy. Great video too.
Way to grind it out, looked like an amazing day to be outside.
Amazing Billy 🏃♂️💪
I like the sign at the start of the race “ next service 50 mile” 😂😂 good to finish the race even if it didn’t go to your plans 💪
Great video! Like always
Finished man, great work! Imagine the drive home afters wasn't too much fun on your legs
I love these videos.
Just lovely!
Congrats on finish Billy! Amazing! Which camera are you using to film during the run?
Finish is the main goal brother. Much love from Miami, Fl.!!
Great video! Thanks
Cramping ... could be due to low sodium. I’m having some success with pickle juice, during the race, as well as Rolaids (potassium & calcium) in the days leading up to the race / long run. Just some helpful ultra hacks, to try out in training. Hope to see you at San Diego 100, if you can make it. Keep up the great work, Billy.
Love it man 😍😍👌
So good Billy! All of your work. There's something about it that brings me a lot of peace, and inspiration. Question: how have your air pods tolerated sweat/water?
I hate you Billy!
I never even run a marathon but you make me wanna sign up for ultra!
When will you make a film making series? You know how to capture the right shots to share the emotions of the story.
Also... any midwestern races you might visit?
Really good one. 😎
Love your videos Billy. Can you show your gear a little more before your races though. Congrats on all your future runs.
I love those real raw moments, it shows that you truly are a human, thank you how do you get the drone shots while you run?
Great video man. Good job. Could you try to get Goggins on my fine sir. He's talking about maybe Leadville this year or training up to it I think. Love to hear his mindset on embracing the suck in Ultras especially. This past month during 25k started to complain. Realized after short while no more complaining. Pity over. Get after it. That distance for me can be challenging for my stomach and muscles. Need to strength train. Thought about how if not challenging myself can't accomplish anything. Think you have some in common with desire carry the boats whether in BUD/S or Lake Sonoma 50. Thanks for great content consistently.
Trex Hosen I’m trying...still trying
YOU INSPIRE!!!
I like your video!!!! Its cool and passion.
wow great filmography billy!
OH, HELL YES.
Thanks!
Love it
Thanks for sharing...awesome as always...👍🏻 PS...you need to get your trucks exhaust looked at... 😛
Very cool!
Awesome!!!!!!
Draining threes in that shooting sleeve. 🤘😉
Jim Duyck perfecting the Eurostep
Way to finish! 15:10 -> met Gus at Tiger Claw this past weekend. Cool dude. Came in second, about a minute behind Laney.
Mark Griffith he’s a good dude 🙌🏻
Dope vid BY
Goggins meme... just epic !
Man i was hoping so bad to see you there, next year hopefully i get to run it so i have a better shot!
Love watching your videos Billy. Curious, how did you get into western states?
Awesome
Thanks for sharing Billy. No beignets from The Parish Cafe this time? 😎
Again, great edit, Billy!
What glasses were you wearing during the race?
ditto on the shades
Looks like Goodr.
Indeed, Goodr’s 😎
I'd be happy with 10-11 hrs for a 50 miler on any kind of day :)
nice job backing up your xterra.
Super Raw, I loved it. Motivating to me personally. My 50 coming up in August. Fat Dog.
Jeff LaPlante good luck Jeff 👊🏼
Love the video billy! 🙌🏻
no ones is wondering about who's closet that's it!?????
Really good video Billy, enjoyed it a lot!
'Tropical' John Medinger, of course. Race director of the race. He mentions it immediately after
Great video. Need to get your ass to an East Coast Ultra so you can see we get down :)
Nice. Goggins cameo.
Billy, who was filming you from the back in some of the shots?
Way to power through.
Haha good job Billy
"Who's gonna carry the boats and the logs?"
Well done! :D One man pity parties are the best.
Thanks for taking all the time req'd to take us along, edit, and produce this! And for the candor. Much appreciated! Have you thought about changing up what you drink and supplement with? Maybe it would help you feel better to be getting something different into your body. Maybe do some label reading and see what you think about other products, compared to what ingredients are in what you currently use. You might see a lot of benefit from mixing in MRM's "BCAA+G" into your drink, and maybe adding in some magnesium pills, which will dissolve as you're running. Products like "Genius Electrolytes" and "Liquid I.V." either alternated or mixed together might make a difference for you too. You're one tough dude to gut out 50 when you're feeling like that. Best mode: ON
Hey Billy. What soundtrack is that at the beginning?
Whats your main camera Billy? an a7sII?
Hey Billy, why are you using mouth guard? what brand is it? Thanks.
ianboi7 haha...I’m a teeth grinder. So I use it for sleep. Just a cheap version I bought online
I hear ya on the one man pity party. Had a 50k race on Saturday where everything went wrong in the last 10k. Hyperextended my left knee because I was trying to keep up with the sponsored dudes on a downhill. Ended up powerhiking 5 miles and limped into the finish all while being passed by what felt like every other racer. Looked back after I was done and realized that I still had a great day out on the trails!
WHOSE GONNA CARRY THE BOATS
What is it about distance runners videos and their music selection?
Does anyone know where I can get a Nike Trail t-shirt like yours Billy? Can’t find them anywhere?? Thanks in advance
whats the sunglass ur wearing?
