    Today marks my first race in over 3 years! The Leadville Trail Marathon is one that I have been eyeing up for a while now and for good reason. The fiance and I absolutely love the area and we come up here whenever possible. She is going to be running the heavy half and I am so proud of her for tackling these races with me. Bonus! My buddy Nathan was filming and running some of the course when he saw none other than ‪@SethJamesDeMoor‬ at the start line! I've been following him forever and am such a fan!
    This is the highest marathon in the US with a top out altitude just below Mosquito Pass at 13,185 ft. It is a race that is seriously tough but so damn fun!
    If you liked this video consider subscribing to the channel. But, I want to thank you all so much again for watching and i'll see you OOT AND ABOOT!
    EXPLORE. ENDURE. ESCAPE

      Thank you! Such a cool town. My buddy ran into Seth at the start line. He was doing some shooting and ran a bunch of the course. I saw Courtney Dauwalter at the finish. Pretty cool!

      Thank you Chad!!! My buddy Nathan ran most of the course and took footage. Also, there is a short bit of of a guy from San Francisco filming me. He also made a video so we offered to film each other for a sec.

    I ran the Leadville Heavy Half this past Saturday. Completly snow in!!! They prevented us from going all the way to the top of Mosquiton pass becuase of the snow. So interesting to see the difference in weather. #mountaineunning

      Congrats! My wife did the heavy half last year and loved it. Sorry you couldn't go all the way to the top of Mosquito Pass, though. Still, a beautiful race!

      Thank you! Means a lot you watched! Loved the race and all the people there. I did the full and she did the half. She loved it but it was a rough day for sure. Either way. Great day! 👍

    Congrats on your finish Cory!! I just registered for the Heavy Half yesterday. Where did you camp? My wife and I will be pulling our pop-up camper and are currently looking for a site. I'm guessing there was no power at the campsite?

    • @CoryGrasser
      @CoryGrasser  Před rokem

      Hi Chris! Congrats on the heavy half registration. Should be another great year to race! My wife and I camped west of town on the road that leads you to the mount elbert and mount massive trailheads. Ton of dispersed camping in the woods and open field that's there. No power though unless you have a generator.

      Hi Donita! Thank you for watching and you should do it! Great race! I'll be honest I just stuck to my own plan of running about 4 to 5 times a week at different mileage and also throw in 2 days a week of bodypump les mills classes. I also do cycling, swimming, hiking, stretching, and foam rolling. Hope this helps and can't wait to see you on the trails!
