Roes, 35, has been dominating 100-mile races for a few years now, but is just coming into his own as a professional runner. He splits his time between Nederland, Colorado and Juneau, Alaska and his training and racing style directly reflects the unique landscape in the areas that he calls home. (13:27)

THis video is poetic, artistic, sensitive, helpful, informative and very clear. I appreciate both Geoff for his generosity to be filmed and Joel for his beautiful management of the profile. His videography is supreme. Keep them coming!
After 10 of us just spent the week with Corle and Geoff, running in the mountains of Juneau, I’ve learned (we all learned) that the person you see in this video is exactly the man you meet in person. He is not only the most agile and graceful runner I have ever run with, but he is one of the nicest, kindest, humblest men I’ve ever met.
the most important part of ultra racing is to understand exactly why you are there…im still trying to figure that out but Geoff’s humble vision and words helps to sort things out….prioritize…

Excellent video Joel. Great job capturing the humble nature of this man and his relationship with the trails. Look forward to your video of the Himalayan 100.
Don’t know how I missed out on seeing this one until now. Thanks, Joel, for another wonderful video-though I shouldn’t have watched it on an afternoon that is to be filled with paperwork instead of running.

Beautiful, inspiring video! Roes appears to find his motivation and enthusiasm in the subtle emotions running through his life.
