In this video we join South African trail runner Ryan Sandes as he once again prepares for the Western States 100. This time out, he goes for a training run in the mountains of his home country, which are spectacularly beautiful. But, what makes this short clip so special is that it isn’t over-produced. There is no music, no special effects, and no slow-motion images. Its just a short, but sweet, video of a runner in his element.
