I was the lucky guy to run with KO from miles 14-26. What a fun guy to be around. Not only did I have a 10 min PR but I had a 5 min negative split. The kofuzi effect 💪

From being a collegiate runner, it’s not often to have an experience like this with a race, to throw the time out the window, or place. Just run, enjoy the crowds, embrace each other. It’s a different joy that I hope to one day enjoy as I get older. Anyone can have this experience come to life. Thanks Kofuzi

What a fun video. That’s all about nothing more than the pure joy of running, the camaraderie of the community, and…well…some alcoholic enhancement 😂😂😂

What a super cool idea and run! Having a few non-standard drinks on the course too! Classic. Really enjoyed this video. Thanks.

How was running in the SC v2's? Just ordered them to start my marathon training! Love the video and inspiration.

Honestly your Chicago Marathon videos are the only thing on KZbin that inspire me to do a full marathon someday.

Hope you can experience it someday. Also, not-running marathons is completely valid. The half marathon distance is my favorite

Looks amazing. I ran my first Marathon on Sunday with you but next time I will for sure soak it all in and have more fun! Maybe I'll carb up with a Modelo along the way in Pilsen :)
