Happy New Year, 2023 is upon us and rather than do my typical "recap & goal" video, I thought I'd change it up with one single goal: to get everyone to tackle that one hard, impossible athletic endeavor they've always wanted to achieve. No better time like the present! What is YOUR GOAL? Time to call your shot in the comments of this video!

Time to SHOOT YOUR SHOT! The challenge for this year is to pick an event, an adventure, something that scares you and will push you - let's get uncomfortable. Use this comment section to call it out, let's help each other accomplish incredible things in 2023!
I'm taking on race to the Stones my first 100km run going from marathon length straight to 100km.
Thankyou for your motivation
I'm excited to fight my battle and excited to learn about myself more!
I will do a 5k trail race. For medical reasons have not run a lot the last couple years, but i think 5k is very doable and will be fun. You're a good man Ethan, much love to you and Kim.
You got this!!
Same for me man! ACL surgery coming up. A 5k on an easy trail would be awesome in the fall.
Since my stroke and now Dystonia…. Everyday is a challenge. I’m now up to 25 miles per week…. Super slow. My challenge this year is to do the Canyons 25k. Not sure if my health will allow me to do it, but I’m going to give it a hell of a go. Not my longest run ever but since that stroke I’ve come no where near that distance. I may come last in the race but a finish would be like winning. This race is serving as the carrot in front of me to keep going everyday. It may not happen but I’m going to try like hell to make it happen . Fingers crossed.
Hell yeah, Randy! The Crew is here to support in any way we can!
Enjoy the process Randy!!! Every step is something to be celebrated. You have inspired me today. Thank you. ❤
@@darlingrunnerpt3342 And Me!
Wish you the best. Nothing is impossible!
You’re videos keep me running. Every time I get into a rut, I watch your Squamish 50/50 training and race video and it gets me out the door.
I got into the Leadville 100 on the lottery last year, thought I could train myself having never run anything over a marathon distance, and had to defer to this year. In December I started working with a legit running coach to hit my goal of finishing. Looking forward to a very good year of running with you guys.
I always loved trail running but you're undoubtedly one of the key influencers that got me into ultra running. up until now my furthest distance has been 36 miles... Mount Hood 50 miler 07/15/23, here we come.
Mine’s the Whiteface Mountain VK. I live in Cleveland, Ohio, so we don’t exactly have mountains to train on. Cue hill and stair repeats with enhanced weight training. Stoked to tackle this one!
Oh that sounds awesome!
Mt 50 miler on April 23rd, devil's gulch 50 miler on July 15th.
Happy 2023 everyone
Two solid 50s! Crush em!
Glad to see you back posting videos! Can’t wait to see the film you’ve been working on 😁
More to come!
Hi Ethan. You already know you inspire countless people to reach for impossible dreams. Last year I achieved my impossible by finishing UTMB. In no small part because of the inspiration of your films, your words and your actions. Where I once had self doubt and a healthy dose of imposter syndrome, I now know there is no challenge I can’t complete. Your content and channel has made my life better, so thank you. And this year? Fat Dog 120.
Wonderful!! And great choice with Fatdog - such a beast!
Hup!
Challenge 2023 : Mt Baker Ultra, mixing things i love: Ultra+Big Mountains
Hell yeah, that’s a doozy!
Hello from Borneo!!
Timely video! I am a long time road runner and usually do a few 10K's and HM's road races each year. I decided about a month ago to change it up and run a 50K trail race. I choose the 50K Freaky Creeky near Vernon, BC. A bit scary and certainly going to be a challenge. 🇨🇦
Hell yeah, let's crush it!
I’m running my first ultra next month! I’m running the OPSF 50/50 in Indiana on 3/25/23. I’ll be doing the 50K.
First ultra! Hell yeah!!!
After an injury a few years ago I fell off running scared to get hurt again. Since then kids have gotten older and life filled that time I used to take to run. I’ve been desperately trying to get that back going again. I was hopeful to run a half last fall with plans of maybe getting to another 50k this fall, but never got there. So here’s to trying to get that half again. Oh and I’m joining back to the GRcrew.
You got this!! And welcome back!
So good seeing you and Kim today!
Shooting my shot here: I’m gonna really push during Chuckanut, Gorge 100k, and Tiger Claw 50k. Like, I wanna try and run Zach Miller style and leave nothing in the tank.
This channel and the GR Crew have been so inspiring and I’ve made so many FRANDS ☺️🥹
Love you all!!!!
Big challenge this year. To run my first ever race abroad. Trail 100 Andorra by UTMB-50K .
Wooow, hell yeah!
Really love the message! A lot of people need a community that will help them reinvent themselves for the better! ❤🏃♂️💪
Funny watching this the day after my first 100km race. Can’t go further, about to have my first kid. Maybe first pram 21k❤
Sounds like a doozy of a start to the year, well done!
Already signed up for the Red Rock 100k this November. It'll be double the distance of my first and only 50k. My 2022 sucked for running, but so far this year I've logged half the miles in six weeks that I did in all of last year. I'm being smart and building slowly and so far so good. Got a 26 mile solo trail marathon w/8k vert training day this summer, plus a road mary later this fall. Gonna fuggin crush it!
Fantastic plan!
I am going to run sub 4:15 at the Chicago Marathon this year! Finally taking recovery and nutrition seriously and feel like I really have made some substantial gains in the "off-season". On a creative front, I am starting to FINALLY make and edit video content! Something I have been very hesitant to do, but something I have been inspired to do, thanks to the likes of you!
Happy 2023
Turning 60 on February 16th. I’ve run 19 marathons and over 100 half marathons. Never run a trail marathon and that’s my plan for my 20th! Grand Island Marathon here in the upper peninsula of Michigan! Scary stuff for an old road runner✌🏻keep pushing yourself its the best way to live!
I turn 60 in April as well. Age doesn’t matter
The Sticks, June 1st Kansas, 72 hr race, 200 miles (haven't run a 100 race yet )......there.....say it out loud u gotta go for it, thx 4 the vid
Doing my first ever ultramarathon this year in the UK, THE WALL 70 miles, out of the comfort zone and in to the pain zone LOL
Line of the year… “if you’re a road runner and you hate trails, pull your head out of your @ss.” Got a really good laugh out of that. Many thanks!😂
Hello Ginger runner, this year I’ve got one challenge set up. It’s a local trail running 12k in the mountain. I’ve been primarily a road runner but I want to try trail running. It’s not a lot, but the goal has kept me going for the past several weeks.
That’s perfect! A mountain 12k is just the ticket to trail running bliss!
Ran, (and won!), The Anza Borrego Cuyamaca 50 mile trail race out of almost 200 runners last year! I also improved my time on this course from the previous year, (8:42 to 7:50).
Later this year I'm taking on my first ever 100 mile race which will be my farthest distance by almost 50 miles! Furthermore, the Cowboy 100 miler will be in Nebraska which will be state 7 out of 50 in my quest to run a different race in every state, ranging from a road mile to a rugged trail 100 mile!
Such amazing goals (and well done on the 50m!!)
That High Route movie is going to be incredibly inspiring. The fact that they thought up and planned a new route is what really inspires me. I won't be doing anything near that level in 2023, but I do plan to try some fastpacking in the Sierras.
Awesome stuff brother; love it...planning a 100k fast pack this summer through the Alpine Lakes Wilderness. It's not about how fast we travel through this majestic landscape, it's all about the journey!
My favorite area - fantastic choice!
Yesssss! I moved to Montana mountains to move forward to run more in the mountains!!!!! Let's Goooooo!!!!!
Dam Ethan, now I will have to name a race. My distance will be a 50 miler. I’ll let you know when. I find the race. Thanks for the call out!
Running my first half marathon on the 21st of May at the Great Ocean Road Running Festival in Aus :) Thanks for the inspo @thegingerrunner
Finally running Marji Gesick September 16-17. I’ve been secretly wanting to attempt this race for 5 years. It’s a self supported event covering the rugged trails of the western end of the upper peninsula of Michigan. I’ve signed up for the “50” mile which is more like 65. I cannot wait but a little scared with the high DNF rate. Let’s do it!
The Meyboom trail 42k in Brussels, is the one I want to do around 1 oktober! Never ran lire then a half marathon!
Oh so cool! Report back when you crush it!
I did the wild Duluth 50k last year. My challenge is to do it again. But the difficult and uncomfortable part is I am building a house now. So the uncomfortable part is fitting in training when I might not be used to it; early mornings, in the dark, using construction of the house as cross training, etc. I need to get to 50k fitness in a shorter time than last year and have a goal to cut down to sub 7 hours. Last year was 7:3X time. So it’s not a new experience, it’s just a repeat with new goals and challenges leading up to it. Second weekend in October. Last year we had 3 inches of fresh snow on the ground and 30F weather.
You’re gonna surprise yourself for sure! You got this!
First challenge this year is to work with good medical help to figure out why I keep injuring myself, do the work needed to strengthen whatever needs it and be able to run without having to take a few breaks and/or drop out of training plans and races because of those injuries. If I can accomplish that, then I’d like to pull the trigger on a full this year.
Boom. Solid plan!
I'm signed up for Gorge 50k in April. I haven't figured out adventures for the rest of the year but I know my big goal is to create. Let's go!
Thank you for the challenge!
Where I am at right now financially, I don't have the money to sign up for a race this year, but here are my challenges for the year!
Trail: Plan my own 30k route through the Greenbrier Forest of West Virginia and run it in July. This will be the longest run I have ever done!
Road: Run a sub 50 minute 10k, currently at 52 minutes
Fantastic!! You got this!
Join the Patreon and get a sip of that sweet, sweet Daily Brew! Do it! You won't regret it and see you in the chat!!
This is serendipitous. I signed up for a 50k ultra last week. It's in Ajusco national park in Mexico City. It's on march 19th. The highest point of the race is 3980m above sea level!
I needed a focus this year rather than just big trotting over the Yorkshire Dales in the UK so tried to sign up for the Spine Race and was lucky to get a spot on one of the Spine Race Challengers (South) 108 miles. This will be my first proper ultra and first 100. Excited to see what GR madness will be happening in 2023 🎉
So excited for new Ginger Runner videos, especially the High Route film!!
I’ll be running my first ultra at the Gorge Waterfalls 50k. 🤞 for an injury-free build up
You’ll love that race!
Last year after 2 years of cancellations I made my moon shot (after being talked into it by my brother-a fast packer) I ran Tahoe 200. Last year was also a really hard running year with a long injury that had me on a 10 mile per run milage restriction through the end of March (Tahoe 200 is now mid June) and an emergency surgery for my partner than left me solo parenting a one year old. After that mess it was a lesson learned that you can do more than you might think you can. This year I with run a 100 miler with (step for step) my brother who DNFed Tahoe. I will also get back to running "fast" in the fall with road 5 to 10 KM races. It isn't much of a moon shot this year, but may maybe Western States next year or the near impossible to get in Hardrock 100. Moab 240 is still out there.
I’m aiming for a trail half marathon then a road full.
Also, to get my a1c back down to safe levels. Stress made me make DUMB decisions over the past few months. Time to get my ass back in gear.
Solid goals, you got this!
@@TheGingerRunner thank you ❤️. I also want to document this in a running channel but I’m terrified to start.
Been struggling through some injuries, and searching for inspiration for something big to celebrate my 60th year on the planet. A 60K race? Perhaps, but I have done a few 50+K runs in the past. So when I found out about a certain loop in Jasper NP that was very close to 50 miles, I figured that was it. Beautiful terrain, a good amount of climbing, empty trails on account of limited camp sites. It is still a long ways off to mid-August, but I’m currently running 10K long runs, so there’s a lot of improvement required. My daughter is coming too! It’ll be a long, fantastic and probably painful day, but we’re going for it!
Absolutely love this!!
An epic journey traveling to a race on a challenging course: Tushars 100k!
Oh awesome!!
Challenge accepted 😎
You’ve been inspiring me since 2016 starting with running for 2 hours with GRGR. Thank you.
Boom! Stoked you’re crushin it!
OK, crew. My challenge in '23 is to complete the one I'd set for '22 - LEADVILLE 100. Did 100k last year, mission possible is to do the 100 miler. Coach, plan, enthusiasm - all there. Let's do this! Good luck with your goals, everyone!
Let’s go Eric!!! Get that buckle
I have not run a race over 10,000 ft altitude, I have been at 9,000 ft racing. You have done the altitude, now it is just the distance go get it.
im doing my first ultra (nuts karhunkierros 55km)in finland.
First ultra! NICE!!
I’ve got 2 challenges. First up, sub-3 attempt at Ventura Marathon (Feb 26). Second, shooting for 24 hrs at AC100 (July 29). Let’s go!! 🙌🏻
those are SOLID goals! AC is such an awesome race. LFG!
@@TheGingerRunner super pumped for AC. It’ll be a full-send effort!
Honestly guys.. I don't think you need to change much.
You do inspire us to get out there and try new distances and events already. GRGR is a great example of this. Watching your running movies introduced me to what is involved in actually running an ultra.
Don't underestimate the positive influence you have on the running community already 🧡👍.
My goals are to run a marathon this year. If i can do that early. i might try for an ultra by the end of 2023.
Much appreciated and I predict you’ll crush BOTH those goals! Let’s do it!
Challenge Accepted. Hello from the UK, I shall be running my first 100 mile trail run in May this year. UK Ultra South Downs Way 100 🙌🙌
OH HELL YEAH!!
Woohoo!!! How awesome! I'll also be running my first 100 this year; the Cowboy 100 out in Nebraska!
So, my challenge is to finish Umstead100 in under 24hr. Not my 1st 100-mile rodeo, but as the old AGE comes every year, I have to be more focused and determined. Journey to 100 series at InsaneRunning. Always love the content and down-to-earth advice you have provided all these years. It definitely got me into my 1st 50k, and the rest is history.
Umstead is legit, have a blast!!
Welcome back 😊. Great to see you again 👍🏃🏻♂️💪🌲🙏
Going for a BQ this May and running my first World Major in Chicago.
Signed up for my first marathon at the end of last year. The training for it has made ultra distances seem much less impossible. I've since signed up to run Broken Arrow 46k and Mammoth Trail Fest 50k. I'll also be completing the TMB in the fall. Daunting but exciting year ahead.
Lots of California mountains in your future - paradise!!!
Calling my (lottery) shot: Mt Washington Road Race. I've never done a race with (that) much vert. I'm usually just a flat road runner so this will be something completely new for me. If the lottery doesn't work then I'm going for a trail race in FL. Starting with a 12k race.
Amazing Ethan love this!
Challenge that scares me this year is tackling the Squamish 50/50! But before that I’ve got tiger claw 50k😆gonna be a great year!!
Tiger Claw will set you up perfectly! You doing the Ascent on Friday too?
Hey hey, glad you are back !
Thanks, I needed this. Mt Taylor 50k here I come! Internal evolution!
Signed up for my first 100miler (Teanaway)! Nervous to toe the line, but I'm excited to experience whatever happens.
Take your time, folks. Always worth waiting for your videos ❤
My shot? I want to fail. I want to take on a challenge that is huge. That I'm trained for, that I'm fit for. That I'm prepared for. And I execute. And I fail. Because it's beyond my limits. Failure as the ultimate lesson: this is beyond my abilities.
Looking forward to the High Pass, awesome!
I will run the Stockholm Marathon this year. I've only done half marathons before, so it's way out of my comfort zone. Cheers! Thanks for all of your inspiring videos.
Shooting my shot: Vermont 50k in September and sub 3 hour marathon in October
A marathon in April. Nice flat local one in Newport South Wales. Only 2months to go 😀
My first ultra will be Way Too Cool 50k in a few weeks. Then Canyons 100k end of April, in honor of my late sister (age 38 in 2016). And that was going to be it- get my hat in the ring for WSER 2024.
Then I saw Cool Moon 100M June 11/12.... crazy increase 50k to 100mile in 3 months, but I just may go for it...
Oh man, sounds like some amazing race choices! With the 100, just ease into it and hang on. Keep training consistent (vs cramming) and you’ll crush it 😊
I’m going to run my first 30k this June up in New Hampshire.
Fantastic! You’re gonna crush it!
I’ve got two big challenges planned this year. I’m running 50 miles at North Country in MI on August 26th to celebrate turning 50 this spring. My most exciting and scary challenge is a trail running trip on the TMB July 16-23. It’s 96 miles in 6 days in the mountains and a trip of a lifetime. I’m going by myself to countries I’ve never seen and running in mountains when I’m a flat lander from MI. It’s so exciting and scary all at the same time!! Thank you for all the vulnerability and inspiration!! We can do hard things!!
Signed up for a sprint triathlon in may..gotta learn formal swim technique. 😬 Second half of the year will be about increasing running distance.
I am late on this train because I have been watching mostly my local trail running content over the last few months but here it is: I was a viewer of the first Ginger Runner Live (one of the 80-something ones) and Ethan has been a great inspiration through many of my running "phases". Since about then, I have wanted to run an ultra. But then you know, life gets in the way, kids, work, moves abroad and back, never found the time (or the will to jump off that cliff). Here I am today. In exactly one month, I will be toeing the line at the Bromont Ultra 55 at the age of 40. I am super pumped, I trained hard, I'm mentally ready, and I will be rocking my OG Ginger Runner buff for the occasion. Thanks, Ethan!
Doing a 1 mile at a time race next month. 1 mile every 15 minutes, shooting for at least 75 miles
My challenge this year is a Grand Canyon Rim-to-Rim run with friends in May!! EEEEEEeeeee!!!!
Awesome! We have a big GRCrew contingent running r2r2r a couple times this year too! So badass!
THanks for the update.
I'd love to call my shot, and boy do I have some ideas, but my knee's been acting up and been feeling my age more and more, so experience guides me to wait a little before calling them shots. Hopefully, things will turn for the best for me, you and the crew.
Take that time for the knee and you’ll be back crushin in no time!
A great 1st video of the year! I want you to know that you have already inspired me to attempt the impossible. I started running again last summer to get in shape for a local OCR and very quickly found your channel. Having read the book Born to Run years ago, I was familiar with the concept of ultras and one has been on my bucket list since. I decided in December that I would run at least 1 ultra in 2023 and decided on the Cascade Super Ultra 50 Miler as it is mostly flat and on gravel. While my mileage and vert is gradually increasing, I felt that I needed sooner motivation so my first ultra will be the Tiger Claw 50k this year. Needless to say, I'm a little terrified at what I have committed to.
Also, you have some of the most compelling and entertaining content on the web so no need to apologize for taking a linger than usual break.
Ethan! Great to see you back bro! I have a few races on the books but my 2023 goal scares the crap out of me....its to run 10,000km! There it is! Ill just leave that there! Thanks for all you do mate! Much love from Australia.
You have already met your goals, thank you for what you have given. GR Crew is wonderful, please join...at 63, wish my body could handle the ultra distance, hope to go back to my earlier days of marathons and half's...have a nice list growing and it starts in April...run-on!
I have 2 main goals in terms of running
Set a short distance PR this spring, and then jump all the way up to a 50K FKT attempt in the fall, bearing in mind I’ve not even run the marathon distance yet. Stupid? Maybe. Excited? Definitely!
Not stupid, freakin awesome!!!
200k in June on the Loyalsock Trail in Pennsylvania. Going to do an out and back with friends. Over 20k of vert thinking a 3 day goal. Thinking of making a series on my CZcams channel to documentary the journey. 🤔🥳
Nice work. Cheers
I'll be running my first marathon this year. Five years ago I couldn't jog my block. Thanks for the motivation on days that I don't feel like getting outside!
Always love your local run, it is absolutely stunning. Doing it this year, 25 km in April, first official run of that distance. Thank you so much for your work and videos. Funny I just bought the same model and blue jacket from North face 🤣
Last year I had a dnf at autumn 100 here in UK. I wasn't ready mentally and physically ran too fast at the start. This year my goal is complete another 100 the North Downs Way, but really respect the distance
Hell yeah, you got this!
Napa 2 Sonoma Half in July, run the Parkway 20 miler in November, and CIM in December. Let’s do this!
Started running this summer based on my knee surgeons advice. Beyond the rehab I’ve enjoyed it enough that I’m entered in the Oakbay half marathon on may 28th and the Victoria full in October. I also want to do the Juan de Foucault trail and the Baden Powell in a day. Not the same day😂
I don’t know about new distances, but this year I have two big goals:
-This track season, break 16:00 in the 5k. This one is a goal I’ve had for a decade.
-Break the course record for a trail half marathon back near my hometown. Came within a few minutes last year, and I know I can do it as long as I don’t race a half marathon the week before, like I did last year 😂😂
9/24/2023 UTMB Grindstone 100k. First 100k!
Grindstone is legit!
Funnily enough I'm trending the other direction for 2023, moving from ultra towards "shorter" races with the goal of setting modest PRs, though nothing concrete yet. Best of luck to everybody!
I have 2 big challenges / adventures coming up this year. The first one is Centurion Running Wendover Woods 50k Night Ultra, I DNF this last year so need my revenge! The second one is the SVP100k which will be my longest run ever. Both of these are in the UK 🇬🇧. Thank you for all your inspiration. Ginger running community forever ❤
Hell yeah, you’ll crush the 50k and it’ll be perfect springboard for the 100k!
@@TheGingerRunner thanks Ethan, you the man. 💥
London Marathon, April 23rd. First Marathon, was due to run it April 2020 but... well you all know. I was so fir in 2020, then I lost it all and have been working back up to it. 14 miles this morning, but they aren't as easy as they once were.
Best thing I'm doing this year: delivering our 6th baby with my 6th c section in March. I bounce back after every baby and was ready to do an ultra this spring until I found out we were expecting baby 6. I'm a big family mama runner! Love Mary in Maine
The woods look amazing, I have made my first 4 shorts in the last two weeks. One was in the woods too 🏃♂️ Great video Sir
👏👏👏 great vid. My challenge is committed to a 50k at Ultra Trail Australia in Dec. Done the 1/2, and 30k time to step up this year and finish with an ultra.
Sub-3. Tunnel Marathon, WA, June 11th. If I go over 3, I'm blaming Seth's BQ training plan 😆
Great to see you back Ethan and Kim. 6 years ago I started watching your channel and for both of you, your energy, enthusiasm, humour and honesty in terms of gear and positive mental health made me realise I had found my tribe. That year I ran my first trail race in Hydra Greece - 26K. This year I entered UTMB TDS 29th of August. Fingers crossed I'll make it to the start and finish lines.
Did my first 100 miler this year in just under 26 hours. The goal is to go sub 24 at Javelina.
Thank you, inspirational as always! I’m running the Zion 50 miler in May, thru hiking the Colorado Trail in July and running the Rut 50k in September. Should be a fun year!
Thanks I needed this today. I've been ill all of January with tonsillitis so initial goals for this year aren't going to happen. Slowly getting better and aiming to be back running regularly by the end of the month. Planning to do my first ultras this year. Hoping to do the Loch ness 24 and Dava way 50k. Eeekkk feels much more real writing it down.
