Next up: try to beat Ryan at having fun 😂. You can all tell how bad I was hurting in that video but it was a blast!
Impossible!! 😂😂
Hey Amelia what an Awesome challenge for all of you ! Wondering what your time was for the race coming third (we'll done!)???
@@duzer Thats for sure🤣
@@bromptinowner763 She ran 8:20
How do you keep pebbles from getting into your shoes?
As a US citizen who loves Mexico and her people, thank you for spreading the word that what we see on the news is an unfair portrayal of that nation as a whole. You’re a wonderful ambassador representing American athletes, as well. Speaking Spanish,embracing the culture and making friends. Thank you for taking me along on an amazing adventure.
I forgot to add this, but Amelia ran 8hours, 20 minutes and got 3rd place. BOOM!! Also, if you’ve never read the book, Born to Run, I highly recommend it-even if you don’t like running, it’s a great adventure story.
One of my favorite running books📚
by Christopher McDougall?
@@cdmiller51 Yep!
Absolutely one of my favourite books.!!!!! Born to Run
Congratulations Amelia 👏👏💯
Don't even know where to begin! Amelia back in the videos + Ryan being Ryan with a personality second to none + Beautiful scenery + Amazing culture and people + Happy kids enjoying life and embracing health and fitness. Awesome is an understatement! I reallllyyyy need to break my comfort zone and get out there and start living more. Thanks Ryan for such amazing, positive, and motivating videos. :)
It’s truly a magical area and I’m so grateful that I’ve been down there 5 times now. Thanks for your kind words, I wish you all the best on your journey to GET OUT THERE!
When “The Duzer” is out
on a trail or a race…
The videos he makes
puts a smile on our face…
He’s an uplifting spirit
An adventurous tour guide…
And we truly are blessed
to be along for the ride…
So thank you to Ryan -
And thank Amelia too..
For the smiles you create
With all that you do!!!
Best comment ever!!! Thank you for putting a smile on my face
@@duzer Aloha Ryan!!!
I enjoyed your video about my people. My great grandfather moved to Chino, California somewhere around 1903. It’s known for sure he bought land there in 1906 for $6 an acre. Recently I’ve been looking for a way to give back to the community around the race. It’s exactly what I need for my mental health. Thanks again for the positive video. There’s another side to this story and the struggles of the Raramuri.
You’re an inspiration Ryan! The love you show for the Mexican culture is truly amazing! Great video!
Thanks! Mexico is my happy place :)

I started watching your channel because of the biking videos, as a fellow biker and aspiring tourer. However, as a former runner that is kinda starting again as my kids start doing 5ks, I think I enjoy your running videos even more! So much joy!
I love hearing this, thank you! I wish your kids all the best on their running journeys (and yours too)
I started the other way around lol. I started watching because of the running videos and it got me hooked into running just finished my 1st marathon, and now I just bought my first bike to start biking!
Beautiful, happy children. Big smiles. Amelia agree with beans and racing!! Looking strong Amelia.
So many happy kids!
Thank you!!
I'm not sure if you realise it but this kind of video is stunning. I cannot imagine running for 9 hrs. This distance is an achievement even by mountain bike! It made my weekend and thank you so much for sharing. The Mexican people are kind and warm. You are a great couple and I wish you both the very best for the future. Yeah, she did kick your butt but in a good way!
Thank you! As you can see, that area energizes me. And it’s an honor to get beat by Amelia ;)
@@duzer yes, it is clear that the place has that kind of energy for you. As for Amelia, well yes she did, but not really by THAT much!! Haha!
"It's gonna open up a whole new world!" I couldn't think of a better analogy for beans honestly. There is no way I would finish that race. Not because I couldn't, but because a food stand got in my way. I'd happily trade a medal for some of that food!
The food down there is so good!!
Glenda “the magnificent” and i thought this was one of your best videos yet. The wonderful people of mexico really came thru. Heart warming.
Bert - an old guy in southern oregon
Hello Bert! Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to watch my video. Give Glenda a hug from me
Ryan, was so stoked for this video to come out and again it exceeded my expectations. Thanks for always sending a good message and showing people your amazing adventures! Keep up the good work as always 👍👍👍😄😄😄
Glad you enjoyed it! That place is pure magic
I can not believe it’s been 6 years since I watched you do this the first time. Everyone watching this one should go back and watch the 2017 videos to see what a real journey it is to get to this place.
It has indeed been a journey. Thanks for sticking with me
Dude, your content is next level! Feels like I’m at the race!
I appreciate that!
What a brilliant video. The culture. The friendliness. An excellent watch.
Thanks! It’s a special place down there!
Awesome! Happy to see Amelia back in your videos. Your energy is so infectious Ryan, you enjoy it so much and also have great life lessons to give away. Thank you :)
Thanks so much!! I love running and being part of the amazing energy
Another great video, Ryan and Amelia! Thank you both for being inspirations to continue to live our best lives!!
Great stuff as usual, glad to went so well for the both of you. thanks for sharing such a wonderful adventure. Looks like a blast.
That was fun, thanks guys! Sorry Ryan. but I love seeing you go through the "Pain Cave" Ha ha
Documenting the ultra while running would rob a lot of energy. Dont know how you do it. Well done on the 10 min. gain!
Ha, thanks. I try my best to show the hard times, too…cause there’s nothing easy about 50 miles :)
I just love your spirit Ryan. It's what keeps me coming back here and keeps me a patron. I have never regrated it once. Very impressed with Amelia she is truly a strong mujer.☮
Thank you so much for your support!! And yes, Amelia is WonderWoman
great video. great energy. thank you for bringing us along
Glad you enjoyed it
That was really cool! I’ll have to read Born to Run again, you added so much context to the book. What a great race and place!
It's such a fun book!
What a great video!!!!!! Thanks for taking us along on your adventure and congrats to both of you!!!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Loved that book Ryan and grateful you’ve put the feel of it to film! Can’t wait to show the family. We’re your Dad and daughter fans from past Whittier Elementary running club and Gold Hill the Fourth! And dude… Amelia!! 🎉
Oh cool!! Give your daughter a high five from me and see you around town
I remember watching Gladiators games just to see Amelia. So good to see her anytime. Good Luck Ameria and Ryan.
She’s still a gladiator!
So grateful to come across your extraordinary channel Ryan.
I find your great attitude, and positive outlook truly inspiring. (Like a cool breeze amidst a desert of social decay) I look forward to viewing all your videos and thank you for your perspective and encouraging message.
“Get out and ride!” I just might do that! Mahalo.
Ps. Glad your BP issues resolved!
I’m so glad that you enjoy my content! Thank you for following my videos
That was awesome and a great job by you both. Thanks for the video and take care, Al
Thanks!!
I did this race in 2013, and it was a life-changing experience! Watching your video brought back so many wonderful memories of the course, the town, and most importantly the people!
Fantastic video and incredible on course footage. Thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed it
Ryan. Congrats to you and Amelia! What a fabulous and super challenging event. Just to finish would be an amazing accomplishment but you got yourself a PR and Amelia earned a 3rd place for the women! You're so fortunate to have a good friend and companion like Amelia who shares your passion for endurance events and a healthy lifestyle. Thank you both for being such great ambassadors for those of us that live north of the border. Your year is off to a tremendous start, keep it going!
Awesome video! Awesome job Amelia & Ryan! Love when you run together!!!!
Us too!
Wow! Your videos just always convey the electrifying, honest beauty of where you are. Don't stop being Duzer!
Tops to you and Amelia!
Thanks again and again Ryan for all the efforts you put for making this incredible video also showing us what a great way to connect with these beautiful people and their rich culture. For me as an avid runner and being in the early stage of my ultra running journey I'll definitely love to do this race in near future since I believe this is the best way to know more about this happy place. Thanks for such amazing and positive video!
Awesome video! You inspire me to get off the couch and get after it. Great job to the both of you!
Gosh, I really love this video. I think this is my third watch😊 ❤
Awwww, you’re too kind
How awesome! You did a great video! Great job on the race you captured what it’s all about!
Thanks Ryan! I needed this today. Always love your trips to the Copper Canyons. All the best! Bless Up!
Glad to hear that we could put a smile on your face today
Awesome video, incredible scenery, you and Amelia ran great.
Thank you very much!
@@duzer You a a very good runner and cyclist, I watched your Leadville 100M runs, they are really great performances.....
@@sylpascale7673 Thanks!
Amelia, Ryan- wow, this was touching, amazing, inspiring.... all of the things! Thanks for showing us this gift!
You are so welcome!
Ah it’s so cool to see the areas and paths described in Born to Run! Thank you Ryan!
Thank you for sharing this incredible journey! So amazing to see the incredible scenery, generous people and joy of a difficult accomplishment.
Thanks for watching!
i agree love your content
Wow so much joy! I listen to some of elite runners and they said to have longevity in running is important to have fun not just run very fast. If you focus on the beating times and not enjoy you will not want to run after few years. When you enjoy what u do motivation comes automatically. When i started to run for feeling good i could not wait for my next run. Thanks Ryan for sharing your joy and beautiful experience!
Awesome video duzer! Your energy brings the whole experience to another level! Hope to be there one day. Keep rocking!
Thanks! I feed off the energy of the canyons!
Your production values are going through the roof! Wow! You are doing amazing stuff.
Awe shucks ;)
Your experiences are so inspiring Ryan. Please keep doing the hard things.
You know I will!
I love your energy, you two are great content creators - and you seem really happy!
Thank you!!!
Niceee glad he's in love again
Just another awesome video to watch. Thank you Ryan for this. Can't help feeling so much better after watching such a nice heart warming, down to earth video while taking a break from all the craziness out there in e mainstream media or other social media platforms... Nice to see Amelia back in this episode. 😁🤘👋 Ryan, you should be made US Ambassador to the UN as sports and Human Condition influencer.🙏
I love hearing that this impacted you in a positive way! Thanks so much for the kind words
Love your spanish!! excellent, and the locals like it for sure. Congrats.
Thanks! I mean, gracias! ;)
Thank-you for sharing all your adventures, your passion and love for travel and respect for people - you all are amazing.
Thank you! I’m just doing my best to show the beauty of the world
super awesome, thanks for sharing. you,re inspiring me to keep living my best life.
Love hearing that!
Watching this after reading Born to Run was special. Thank you!
This was fantastic…Congrats to both of you and I order the book. Doing my second Ultra on April 15th and I know the last 10 miles will be tough but this inspires me to finish it. Thx
Extraordinary! This channel is such a delight:))
Thank you!! I’m so glad that you enjoy it
Awesome job to both of you! Great 3rd place finish Amelia! Great job Ryan for setting a pr! I don't how you have the time to train for an ultra with all the biking you do! I've read the book quite a few times and I might have to dig it out again! Congrats guys!!
The biking is fun but definitely doesn't help with the running :)
Ryan, you are a true inspiration. Keep doing what you're doing. I'll think of you when I'm hurting on my bike and say to myself, "come on shadow, you can do it"!!
Your shadow will always be there to cheer you on! Or the other way around :)
Ryan/Amelia, Amazing race in Caballo blanco- experience, people, love and spirit. Not a runner, but I keep coming back to your running, biking videos. Beautiful couple you are! We need more smiles like these in the world. Thanks. ❤🤓❤
Awww, you’re too kind!! Thank you for taking the time to watch this
Hey Ryan. It's been a bit since I've caught one of your videos. You seem to have found somebody perfectly suited to you. It's a joy to see the both of you doing adventures like that. Great job down there. Excited to see your next adventure.
Welcome back! Thanks for watching this one, many more to come
Great video Ryan, well done to you both. Motivates me to have a go!
It's worth the trip down there!
@@duzer bit of a hike from the south coast of New South Wales, Australia……but very tempting, people look very welcoming
Awesome Ryan, just finished reading born to run. Awesome to see what has become of the race, very cool and thank for doing this
I hope this video brought that book to life in a new way for you
@@duzer it certainly did
Fabulous. Inspiring Fun vid!!!!! 🌟
Thanks so much!
Awesome. Good humor and joy are contagious. Thank you for this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
What an incredible race, and scenery ... and the people are the BEST!!!

The more we watch your vids the more we like you Ryan, you are definitely a great positive influence on those you meet and quite entertaining to boot, Your girlfriend is a wonderful match for you too, best wishes, If we ever cross paths out there I have a can of beans I’ll share with you, LOL !
I hope to eat beans with you someday!
Great video Ryan. Maybe my favorite of all you've ever done. From beginning to end it was wonderful.
Wow! That’s quite a compliment and I appreciate it, mucho! Thanks for taking the time to watch it
I love seeing you and Amelia in the same video!🥰
Me too!
Very Cool! Congrats to both of you!!!
Thanks!!
This is just incredible work by Sr. Duzer, whose spirit and cultural insights into Ultramarathon running and the Tarahumara are unmatched...
Thank you!! Is this Randall, by the way? Hope you’re doing well, my friend
Loved every minute of this video! Sooo good! What do the natives who run in sandals think of Hokas? Don't they get little rocks inside their sandals??
I’m not sure what they think of our fancy shoes…their way seems to work for them
Thanks for bringing us with you!
Thanks for coming for the ride
Ryan congratulations for your videos thank you so much for show how amazing is this beautiful race👏👏💖 me encantó escucharte en la ruta diciendo "Echeleee"😂
Hello Ryan. I just "run into" your Caballo Blanco ultramarathon videos and man I really enjoyed all of them. Emilia is just gorgeous and a warrior. I am a "could have been a good runner" but now I am caught in the 9 to 5 daily grind you know. Man the Copper Canyon views are awesome. I did the Chihuahua Pacifico train years ago and I know where you are running, just grueling. Plus you are filming, cheering and narrating. Thank you for promoting my country. I hope in the future I can go there and get to meet you and some of the Muchos Locos doing that race. No one can beat you on getting fun, one can really see you love what you do. You are blessed. Say hi to the Raramuri people for me. Take care man.
P.S.. That "hola vaca" was epic, I spilled my tea all over.
Loved this video, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was a great way to showcase a positive story about Mexican running culture and how runners from around the world can come together to help improve the economic situation in this rural community and celebrate the activity of trail running.
VIVA MEXICO!
Congrats to both of you on a run well done. Thanks for sharing your adventure and the people of the Copper Canyon with us.
Thanks, my man! It was a great experience down there once again
I gain so much ambition from watching you do stuff like this. My fitness journey has been a long one, especially after the long dark winter we just came out of. I made my first run of the year this morning, I only made it 1.1 miles but ran my best mile yet at 10:39 Some day I hope to go longer distances but I am not getting any younger that is for sure.
Love watching this race! Great job Duzer and Amelia!!!🎉
It’s one of my faves
Nice job you two!
Such an amazing story 😊
Man this looks like such a fun time! Might have to do this one
It’s worth the effort to get down there
AMAZING VIDEO! Beautiful scenery, so fun watching you and A compete "together". So it's probably not cool to ask - because no one else has - but I can't be the ONLY one wondering what Amelia's time was ... 😆 3rd GIRL!! Surprised she followed you to this race after that 100 mile desert rim bike ride! But running seems to be her strong sport. LOVE YOU GUYS! Thanks for sharing all your fun and because of you I just booked my FIRST BIKE TOUR VACATION this summer - can't wait!!
Thanks! I think it was 8:20ish
Have so much fun on your bike tour!! You are gonna LOVE it!!
Awesome. I read about Caballo Blanco at books, this peoples are amazining, such you both !! Greetings and congratulations !!
The book is wonderful!
Congratulations to you both. Looks like you had fun!
Great job to all!
And great job to you two!
The exchange between you and Wal Ber was so wholesome 🥺 love how much you embrace and embody the spirit of the marathon & the culture of the Raramuri. Much respect to you Sir!
I’ve loved getting to know him over the years! There’s so many great people down there
Beautiful! Running love is cross cultural! Just. Beautiful. As always Ryan, thank you for bringing your light and sharing it with the world.
I totally agree! Running is so simple and beautiful and people all over the world do it. Thanks for watching!
I just love this guys content - nice to see the a different side of that amazing country! 🇨🇦 🇲🇽 🇺🇸
Thank you, Gary! Mexico has so much to offer
Ryan! We are so happy for you!
Nice video man, nice people there!😂
Nobody has more fun than you duzer. Keep up the amazing videos!
Fun having is my favorite thing 😂😂😂
Me disfruté todito! Felicidades! 😜
Gracias!!!
You the man Ryan! Great job!
Thank you, Myles
Well done both. 🎉. Great achievement 👍🏃🏻♂️🌲💪🙏🏃♀️
Congratulations to you both; well done. Hats off to the locals. No Lycra or $ 200.00 trainers amazing 👍
The simple way is sometimes the best way
My 4 year old woke up this morning and joined me for part of the viewing experience. He loved the enthusiasm and was so curious about everything he was seeing and hearing. Congrats on the finish! Looks like this is race is now on my to do list.
Right on!! Give him a high five from me
I can't help but smile the whole way through this video. Hopefully one day I can experience that incredible race, place, and atmosphere. I've gotta get the español down though.
I hope that you make it down there someday!
