Sorry, I don't post many runs on strava anymore as am not trying right now🐱😓

You didn't ever stop running just like you said! I missed this video it's so good I'm gonna go cut a big hole in the bottom of my running shoes and go eat some grass!

[@thegreatoutdoors1000]

You got this!

What a day for it, it looks lovely & couldn't agree more with just go outside & get running 👍🏃 I've had a similar experience with having to change route due to an animal that wasn't happy, it all adds to a memorable day out 😀

Been a fan for a while now. Do you plan on coming back to the states? I would love to meet you and go for a run

Haha good video Man, haha ran up this Mountain & there’s another one over there 👉 haha, yeah I ran over 5000k in a part of Hoka one one Stinson RTA gave them to my nephew & he’s walking around in them for another 5000k not even a hole in them yet, so that’s the trick to a 13 min 5k grazing the grass haha, I was watching your videos when you were running the mountains back in the USA eating figs on your property

[@thegreatoutdoors1000]

That's, but that was in Sicily! My family home. I came to USA as a kid and would return home back to Sicily to work on a farm, and run mountains.

@@thegreatoutdoors1000 yep I remember in your earlier videos you running up a mountain 🏔 & climbing around a steep part looked dangerous as

Good to see you running. What's your current occupation? How do you find job in Japan, anyway?

[@thegreatoutdoors1000]

I work in education. Long 12 hour days and a 26 bike commute ahh. I want to do ultras now.

[@no79way]

How are you doing?

[@thegreatoutdoors1000]

Stuck at work in Japan. How are you?

[@Happysoursop]

[@no79way]

Does working extra hard make a big difference? I mean doing 110% Vs 100%?

[@thegreatoutdoors1000]

Yea, I think so. Got me a top 20 finish in a usa road championship race few years ago. And I sucked in highschool before.

[@pillo1934]

Why you are not running?:(

[@thegreatoutdoors1000]

Working 12 hours a day, plus 26 mile bike commute. And still no race here in japan. Can't get a flight back to the usa. They keep canceling it. I give up.
