Overcome | A Western States Endurance Run Story
Спорт
After a series of events in 2012, Randy Van Dusen toed the line at his first Western States Endurance Run. With his K-9 officer, Bodie, by his side, he finished his dream race. Little did he know that the next year he would have the opportunity to run it again, and did.
After many years of qualifying and entering the lottery, in December 2022, Randy Van Dusen's playing card was drawn at the Western States Lottery. He once again would toe the line in Olympic Valley. What would the day hold? How would the 2022 story end?
It's not the destination, it's the journey. To overcome sadness, to overcome illness, to overcome life's challenges. To finish the races in life with our family and friends by our side.
This is Overcome.

Thank you for watching! Sharing his story was so fun and yes, real people are what makes Western States so special.
First of all, thank you for your service. I’m just starting to watch her hour long KZread video and I’m already tearing up with you and Bodie. I just want to say I’m 12 minutes into this and you’re everything a policeman should be. I’m retired and Auburn I just learned about this race I do not run but I love events like this. I hope you make the 2023 lottery if you’re trying maybe I’ll find out by the end of this video but it was a really well done video. I’m thankful I watched it you’re an amazing guy. God bless.
Oh my gosh this was soooo amazing!!!!! 😭😭😭😭🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 cried multiple times! I didn’t realize I would cry this much! Such a beautiful story and what an incredible family you have and amazing friends!!!

Randy, I've seen quite a few inspirational ultra videos but yours by far, was best. We take a lot for granted in life and your video shows us how we need to live life to the fullest. Cheers and God bless.
