    After a long hiatus from racing more than 50+ miles, I decided somewhat on a whim to sign up and race the Javelina 100km race put on by the good people at Aravaipa Running. On less than a month's notice, I put in some condensed training for the big party in the desert with the goal of having fun but also putting in a performance I can be proud of.

    Great video! I was at Coyote volunteering and I'm the guy who was assisting you in the video. I remember you being very easy going and all smiles. It was a rewarding experience for me to be a part of your adventure. Keep being the awesome person you are!

    • @BillyYang

      Appreciate it Matthew, both your words and your assistance. Would love to do what you did and give back to the sport at an aid station one day! 🙏🏼

    Me watches this: “oh man. I’m so pumped. I’m going to go run”…..runs 4 miles

    • @SwordInThroat
      @SwordInThroat Před rokem +15

      Stop that, 4 miles is 4 miles. That's 4 miles more than the person on the couch, and truthfully ANY runner, in my opinion, is a legend.

    I like how authentically Billy shows the mental struggle of the latter part of a 100k.

    Billy , I live over here in Scotland UK .. bit of a runner myself but I had a couple of tough years just a while back , but about 2 years ago I started watching CZcams, one of the first long runs I watched was you running some 100k race ,I can't remember where and won't lie , I was in tears 😢 because I had lost that ability to run through having cancer but I asked God to help ,( as silly as it sounds ) and next day I tried to run not good but just run , I've spent the last 2cyears getting fit and still watching you and others now, almost every runner and hike ,camp video I can find , this weekend I'm running in my 8th event in 5 months ,doesn't sound a lot when they are only 5 and 10k so far but I'm nearly stepping up again ,and my times are good as 50mins 10k for a 54 year old guy isn't too bad ,so I've just watched this and saw that doubt just before the end , well at that point I Decide tomorrow I'm going out for a long but slow and careful run ,maybe ( hopefully 20k or so ,no times just fun ) and I'm gonna say to myself one day I'm gonna be running with you guys . Nothing is impossible..
    Loving your videos man ,you seem like a great guy and wish you and the family all the best for 2023 .. my apologies for the length of this comment 😅 .. ciao

      @BillyYang  Před rokem +10

      I'm so happy to read that you're on the bend. 5K...100K...doesn't matter, as long as you're finding fulfillment and challenging yourself, that's really all that matters. Hope we can share some kms/miles one day. Take care and blessings to you too

    • @deldridg
      @deldridg Před rokem

      Wow - thank you for your story. I'm totally humbled by your words and am so happy that you're finding your way back to doing what you love. Here in Sydney, I"ve had a challenging few months, almost losing my beautiful dad to a major heart event. In some ways I've "dropped the ball", feeling very emotionally worn but having read about your trials and watched a few of Billy's wonderful short movies here, I think I'm ready to get back to my trail running. I'm 54 too and need to get back out there. So I'll be running with you in spirit tomorrow. Take care and keep at it buddy! Cheers - Dave (big thanks to you too Billy and Hilary - love your work)

    Couple of things I loved, firstly the gentleman nature of ladies first - 45 miles deep. But secondly the love that billy recieves but also gives out to people. An inspiration for 2023 (minus the bats eating my legs... I'll avoid that bit)!!

    • @kristinakohler4150
      @kristinakohler4150 Před rokem +1

      I think this just goes to show the low-key nature of the trail running scene. No technical, expensive brand-name tops with the latest cooling features… just a janky T-shirt. 😂 …And a whole lotta passion.
