Running a Marathon with Russ Cook in Tunisia

[@jarredkarp3833]

Hey you two! Thank you for the amazing support and the kind words! I can’t believe you came all the way out to see us and Russ. You’re amazing. I’m the one who’s star struck, you guys shouldn’t be 🤣 I hope we can work together in future or meet up somewhere awesome!

[@KaraandNate]

I hope so too! 🩵🫶🏼

[@courtneyhope6293]

[@kristin9687]

JARRED! You're a star in the aesthetic/reality universe 🌟 🌠🌌

[@jenny4ynwa895]

You made his videos so entertaining on days that I’m sure we’re so tough and potentially dull! Thanks Jared!

[@inspiredbystarr]

Holy shit.... I'm literally in my spiritual awakening after the dark night of the soul and losing my mom to colon cancer on my daughter's 15th birthday. April 13th 2020. KARA AND NATE became a tiny piece of my awakening. As batshit crazy as it sounds. Kara and Nate seemed like they had such a similar story to mine. Which is why I want to say THANK YOU TO THEM AND YOU for capturing the real life Forrest Gump. 😂 Because I otherwise would've never seen it. Even though I'm late to the party......... NATE....... The fact that you kept doubting yourself but then every now and again you would get that tiny Dopamine hit whenever you would see a seen that was beautiful or caught up with someone that was from Hendersonville TN. Which is another thing I wanted to say.... To kara and Nate.... I'm turning 37 this year Sept 30th my husband will turn 41.... We met in Ft Walton Beach Florida right next to Destin. On Okaloosa Island, I was a waitress at waffle house and he was a cook..... He was with a girl who he was about to marry and we babe great friend almost overnight and once night on a break outside on 3rd shift maybe 1am. I cried and told him I wanted to see him happy but didn't want to see him marry her because I loved him. .... He said he felt the same way about me too.... So he sadly went home and broke his engagement and this poor girls heart... Just to take me on a Date. We've been inseparable ever since and lived in Helen ga, kaneohe hi, Nashville TN, Bowling Green Kentucky, and now. ........ Mohall, North Dakota. Which I'm so sad to say I didn't find your videos talking about how horribly FLAT and Empty ND is...... But Christ knows I'm glad you guys show different terrain and climates and scenery otherwise I'd be sooooooooo miserable. This place isn't for anyone longer than a day. Lol😅😂😂😂. But to your new cameraman. Lol you did amazing capturing so much beauty for kara and Nate... And to kara..... Such a beautiful STRONG goddess of love you are. You radiate SOOOO much light. I think that was a big reason I kept coming back. We all see a little bit of Kara in ourselves. 😂 Sometimes so happy, giddy and excited that your clumsy, Ditzy, dorky, silly....... But don't apologize for it. Because it's so human...... So I love you all. Including Russ for doing this miracle and being terrified. You all lit us up just a little more. ...And sparked new ones to light up Thank you all and I love you all so much.

[@Harry_Gallimore]

Hey Guys thanks for coming out and being a part of the event. Really appreciate your support over the last year. What a beautiful video and congrats to Nate on running the marathon 💪🏻

[@KaraandNate]

Glad you enjoyed it Harry! Y'all rock!

[@kristin9687]

Harry is the unsung hero. It is Harry had the gun to his face. I hope you are well, dear soul. ♡🌠

[@sjwee6695]

Honestly the way they talk about Russ and how star struck they were to meet him would be my reaction to meeting Kara and Nate… maybe with a bit more screaming and panicking 😂

[@raveenanigamTWM]

Exactly right? Me too!

[@iamnevrhere6244]

me three!

[@tracyneer4311]

Add me to that list!

[@jennawren1672]

Absolutely!! I'm star struck by them!

[@robertgast5953]

they were about 3 blocks from my house at the Telsa station in their cyber truck video. Upset i missed that.

[@Adrian-Maxwell]

Can we keep Jack? I love him.

[@jcarriere007]

Yeah! Thanks Jack! 🙂

[@HoagieHut]

Thank you for introducing Russ Cook to your audience! I'm gonna start on day 1 as soon as I'm done with this video. He deserves all the support in the world.

[@CucumberpatchAddict]

kara picking up a car full of random dudes on the way was so unexpected im wheezing, gosh what a sweet video

[@FrederikSchukken]

One of the random dudes I happen to know appreciated it as well after 22 kilometres running in the heat 😂

[@CucumberpatchAddict]

@@FrederikSchukken they made an awesome team! i'm sure she appreciated the company as well ^_^

As a Tunisian i waited for a video in Tunisia for years 😍🥰

[@ilyesbouzir649]

[@morriganmoonglow2712]

What a beautiful country too. 😁✌

[@sweigh72]

Tunisia looks like a beautiful country the landscape and homes gorgeous … and what a way to see it via Kara and Nate’s camera and raising awareness of an an amazing cause.. the Tunisian guy who ran whilst fasting what a legend

[@jochem2029]

Since this video traveling to Tunesia is on my bucket list! Looks like a beautiful country!

[@LadyAnyaRose]

I love Kara just casually making friends along the way.

[@yagmurtuna837]

I love how like some guy decided to be the B-Roll guy for Kara like "Is nate taking the shots?" - Nate films someone holding a camera in the trunk of the car

[@erikahoffman2003]

my first thing i want to mention: GREAT JOB FOR RUSS!!! and that’s amazing that y’all got to be part of it, and thank you so much for letting us all join too! secondly, i’m loving the posts lately. they have all been so much fun and its wonderful to hear that y’all are genuinely enjoying posting again🫶. third, kara, huge props to you for being in the support car. your energy makes these videos so entertaining. during this one, when it was the finish line and you were so happy for everyone i said “wow i love kara.” your energy is absolutely RADIANT. and to nate, HUGE props to you for running an ultramarathon with no prior training AND for giving yourself breaks when you needed them. lastly, all the cool clips jack got made this video NEXT LEVEL! i love that you guys can make friends everywhere you go. i also loved that the both of you made sure this was still about russ. thank you for this video, i absolutely loved it.

[@KaraandNate]

This really made me smile :) thank you Erika!

[@Indigosoul127]

I did not think it was going to impact me this way but I broke crying when he crossed the red ribbon line. What an accomplishment for Russ and how all the runners supported him on his last leg of the journey

[@maryboggan8251]

My mother passed away recently. She fought a long battle with Alzhiemers. Yall are the first KZbin'ers I followed 4 years ago. I'm from Memphis as were my parents, they then retired in Kingsport, TN. Yall's videos have brought me so much joy and a diversion during all my difficult times. Thanks for bringing the joy to those who need it.

[@heather482]

My sincere condolences sweet pea. Much love ❤

[@crispsareunderrated]

i'm so sorry for your loss! glad you could find a little piece of joy though.

[@KaraandNate]

We have experienced the pain of a loved one with Alzheimer’s and know how tough it is - I am so sorry for your loss 💛

[@tamthaluehrs]

I am so sorry to hear of your loss….I live in kingsport! Small world

[@waywardsisters918]

So sorry for you lost, my mum has it, and its not good., Much love x

[@kelliespradlin5653]

This video is one of the many reasons why I love you guys!! Not only do you support SO many other people but you always make a great video!! Even the ones I think aren't going to be the best, but I watch them all, so I will watch this one are AWESOME!! Congratulations to Russ and to Nate! ❤

[@annecaunce]

Humbling, emotional, inspiring. I got goosebumps when he crossed the finish line. Russ should be publicly recognised by the King with an OBE at the very least for this truly incredible feat. A man, a myth, a legend. And congrats Nate for pushing through in the heat and making it to the end. Fantastic video and now I'm off to donate.

[@kellyszymanowski5715]

Nate is amazing. I just started running and it's daunting to think about a marathon and Nate just flies to another country and does a marathon on day 2 after a one hour run prep. Phenomenal work guys, love how you live your lives. Champion attitudes

[@wendyrees7942]

Tears streaming down my face when Russ ran across the finish line . I did not know about this guy and I am British - where have I been ?? Russ is a legend in his own lifetime , and , as someone else put he definitely deserves an OBE. Kara and Nate , you just absolutely rock , you are my very favourite Chanel to watch , I see you have posted and I get so excited!!!!! Your enthusiasm and utter joy in life makes your content such an absolute joy to watch . Let’s get Russ to a million and beyond . ❤

[@lltgoat4066]

You guys have helped me so much!! Love you guys!!❤😢

[@KaraandNate]

love to hear it ❤

[@janinebrown8020]

​​@@CooperdayappiasferociusOhhh I hope so! I'm in Cape Town and would just love to meet Kara and Nate❤

[@armstrongcatherine]

Cannot imagine anything more cool that watching Kara and Nate run with the Hardest Geezer and support him so strongly. It is such a great mission for him to complete.

[@MunchkinJ]

Ahhh I cannot believe you guys uploaded on a Sunday what a lovely surprise!!! A big congrats to Kara and family on the birth of her new gorgeous nephew!!!!

[@JustOneQuestion]

As someone from the UK I know Russ from Geowizzard's kicking a football across England, he's an absolute beast and I love that K&N have been able to join in with his momentous achievement across Africa.

[@bridgetedwardslivelifefully]

OMG, I'm in tears already... been following Russ @hardestgeezer's epic journey from almost the beginning. He's a legend 🙌👏❤ thank you for amplifying his incredible impact 🙏 Well done Nate, you did it ... really impressive!!!

[@t.j.sortino7844]

Wow, Russ is a remarkable man! Absolutely has the biggest heart for donating every cent! He is truly a great, and will go down in history as such! I can't imagine having that level of willpower and sheer determination. I can say the same for Kara and Nate. They have inspired me time and time again! I can't overstate the gratitude I have for being able to see them grow this channel and build their career and life of their dreams! 2016 wasn't that long ago! Just goes to show you that if you truly want something and have that sheer determination with a bit of inspiration, we to can have the life we most desire.

[@Michelle-wd2oy]

I absolutely loved everything about this video. Kara picking up random guys and one turns into the videographer AMAZING. I wouldn’t have expected anything less. This video had me beaming from ear to ear. Great job guys. And WOW!! What a feat!! Congratulations to Russ. I remember my first and only 1/2 marathon…it was tough. So glad to see he finished with such an amazing support system. Also, Congratulations Nate on finishing, what an honor it was for the both of you to be there in support of Russ. I’ll go check out his channel now.

[@KaraandNate]

So happy you enjoyed it Michelle!! :)

[@nidhalhammadi997]

I'm Tunisian welcome to our country hope you like it...your re great guys ❤

[@oceansea6979]

The way Kara said “I think we’ve been pronouncing Tunisia wrong, I think its TuNiSiA.” 😂❤

[@mounirbouacida89]

its Tunissia in English with one S , Tunisie in French, and Touness in Arabic

[@ibreakyou7134]

"Please don't make it the top comment" no just top 3 kara 😂

[@HeyItsMaori]

😂😂😂

[@jochem2029]

Love this! 😂😂

[@Joncalebbrown]

As someone who grew Tunisia and calls it home, I've been waiting for you all to make it there! Hope you all had a blast and visit again soon :)

[@HayOborn]

I’m a new subscriber of yours and I can’t believe I’ve only just come across your channel. Anyway I have been following Russ since day 1 and was gutted I couldn’t make the finish, but this has been the next best thing seeing the actual last run, and the ending… thank you guys xx

[@immarissa]

It's strange to feel pride of two people I don't personally know, but every video I burst with it because Kara and Nate are just so tenacious and dedicated. Edit: Congrats on yet another new country added to the ever growing list.

[@stephaniewentz5915]

Crazy to watch this video and then watch Nate run 100 miles in the Leadville 100!!!

[@amani3695]

proud of you guys ! big love from tunisia 🇹🇳

[@Samfil97]

I'm Tunisian ,I've been following you for years and I was waiting for this video. You really have to come again and stay longer. There is so much more to see in Tunisia . It was really inspiring and humbling seeing Russ pass the finish line.

[@kuhleM23]

Much love from south africa Kara and nate 🌻♥️ yall truly a blessing showing us the wonders of the world and cultures

[@LindsayDaly]

omg this is the song I listened to when I was finishing the Boston Marathon!! 36:11. Watched soooo much Hardest Geezer before my training runs lol. I've been filming them for the past five years to show my journey to Boston, it was my first marathon and the best day of my life! I watched Russ make it to the finish the morning of my race!

[@alejandrocandelario9621]

Finally, Tunisia! I was wondering why they hadn't been there before. I visited last summer and it's definitely one of my favorite countries, a real hidden gem.

[@chillout914]

I am so happy that you enjoyed our small cute country !!!

[@alejandrocandelario9621]

كان بتجنن!​@@chillout914

[@ThePunisher014]

Small? wtf? Tunisia is roughly the size of Great Britain, that's England Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland 4 countries combined! But as a Tunisian/German i find it cool that Tunisia stayed hidden in plain sight. don't want it to be swarming with tourists like Greek islands or Italy.

[@liliyasassi9970]

It’s amazing seeing you guys visiting my country and running a marathon in it, this is huge! I hope you loved Tunisia❤️

[@kristenj988]

[@madie3199]

The finishing line gave me chills!! I was so excited for the finish!! I can’t believe how many people came and supported Russ!!

[@ACCreates15]

You guys are so kind and considerate. The fact that you would stop to help someone is so impactful. Also you carried lots of people who were on the verge of heat stroke really shows the person you guys are

Amazing! You two have lived the most epic life to date. And all because you decided to film that first video. I love that you both are so adventurous and just jump on a plan to Tunisia.

Thank you K&N for sharing Russ KZbin channel with your fans. I watched this video last week and just watched the final run for Russ today. That was an amazing finish to a beautiful story and I would never had know about him if it wasn't for you. 🙏 I only wish I'd known about him from the very beginning so I could've followed the journey. KZbin is still full of amazing stories to be told. Appreciate you guys. Safe travels.

Congratulations, Nate!! Do not beat yourself up! That is such a hard task and you tackled it. Don’t ever doubt yourself. You’re such an inspiration to so many of us, so keep being you and just do the best you can, and don’t think you’re not enough. Awesome job!! Kara, thank you for being the amazing, honest, truest version of yourself. I know the smiles can be hard, but thank you for being such a positive person. Being the support person can be so draining, but you both are so good for each other and we so greatly appreciate you. I started watching your channel several years ago, but got my husband hooked with your van adventures, and we love you both. Keep up the awesome job!

[@sjwee6695]

I thought it was so sweet and like nice when Nate said hi to Russ it felt like he was just a kid meeting a celebrity he looked up to 🥹

[@ruzianamohdmokhtar1350]

I was in Tunisia last year and agree... the landscape is similar to Tuscany, especially near Bizerte

[@mouath_14]

The north west around Aïn Draham looks more similar to Austria, Switzerland than Tuscany Italy. Bizerta is less mountainous like Tuscany.

[@janinefall5432]

Thanks so much for using your platform to help Russ and the charities he is supporting. Well done on the marathon!

I vaguely knew of Russ from your previous mentions of him but I never dove into his journey. Thanks for bringing part of it to your audience, and what a part to share in! I found myself tearing up when he hit the finish line and that’s after only being invested in the small glimpse into his journey. I can only imagine the vibes being there in person, nevermind what Russ and his incredible team must have felt. Kudos to Nate for making it through such a difficult challenge, to Kara for always being the energy and help that the world needs, the new friends for helping make the video…this was such a joy to watch.
