Karla loves snacks segment haha. She's happy because she just saw some food. HELL YEEEEE lol Dude the redwood forest is some views. Love it That pizza looking deeeeeelicous. DONE AND DUSTED!

[@CLFurlong]

Hahah she really does love her snacks! Lol Haha Yea the views were amazing! Super cool to run in ⭐️ Haha the pizza was the bomb! Appreciate you bro!!

[@CelineFerocious]

These are becoming my favorite videos from you! Looks like those are thin little trails at times, oooof that hill. Did not disappoint with the scenery!

[@CLFurlong]

Nawww thanks Celine 🙏🏼 The skinny trails really test you and so do those BIG hills hahah! 😜 but the 🍕 makes it worth it lol Thank you! Was so amazing ⭐️⭐️

[@TravelRunner]

That’s the biggest group I’ve seen at a race since COVID. It really makes me miss trail racing. Loved the redwood forest and your optimism that you’re “on the home stretch” when you’re 16km into a 25km run! Great work, Chris! Pizza looked totally worth the extra 2km in race distance!

[@CLFurlong]

MY MAN!!! Yea was pretty crazy, surreal and nice at the same time! HAHAH well since we had turned around, it was the home stretch... I never thought of it this way LOL :) thanks mate! Was totally worth it indeed!

[@TravelRunner]

@@CLFurlong What's up next for running with you?

[@CLFurlong]

So Its a bit of a dip before my next races - I’m focusing on just building a strong base and consistency - so when I start my ultra training in June, giving me I hope a better training all round 🤞🏼

[@DevRunner]

Oh man how I miss racing! Looks like a beautiful day out there! I really enjoyed coming along with you guys!

[@CLFurlong]

Glad I was able to share! Hopefully it won’t be long till you guys are back at it! Thanks bud! Really appreciate it 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@WVRunningDon]

The best things about running a race....finishing, medal, the food and drink afterwards.

[@CLFurlong]

100% I agree! That pizza was well worth it! But also feeling the achievement too! Wooo!

[@FitLabb]

I loved this!!!!! Doing something like this course is absolutely on my bucket list!

[@CLFurlong]

Thanks champ! You should! I know there are plenty of trails in US, not sure of your area but Im sure plenty to be found :)

[@BenNotley]

What a epic race! You guys crushed it! I am extremely jealous. This looked right up my street! Well done guys! 👏🏻😎🤘🏻

[@CLFurlong]

Ben matey! Thanks so much! It was so good to be out again.. and yea sorry to make you feel Jelly, but also happy to be able to share with you! Lots of fun and CHALLENGE! hahah Cheers bro!

[@RunFreeandStrong]

Thanks for filming the race, Chris, looks like a good one! Downhill to the finish, party and pizza, my kind of race. Kudos to both of you!

[@CLFurlong]

Thanks for being here Reto! Was a great race and beautiful weather! A good challenge for sure! Haha but the pizza and party was well worth it all! Haha 🙏🏼 thanks mate

[@marcio83]

What a TRIP Chris, I never did any trail run, but definitely I'm considering after watch that video. Well done guys 🤝

[@CLFurlong]

Thanks 👍 matey! Appreciate the encouragement, per usual! Well worth giving one a go man. Later this year there is the Trail Running Series - that is a good way to get a teaser for trail running. Where I started too! :)

[@AdventureMoore]

I can't wait to race again! This looks incredible, great job guys.

[@CLFurlong]

Hope you can soon!!! Was a spectacular day! Glad I was able to share! Thank you 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

[@sharonfurlong1467]

Well done 👏 looked like an amazing trail - loved the redwoods

[@CLFurlong]

Was an amazing trail - will be back for another! The redwoods make it all so worth it too!

[@thescarecrowrunner]

awesome work mate. Love those kind of surprises :D

[@CLFurlong]

Hahah! I feel like these surprises really summaries trail runs lol :) thanks matey!

[@pinaymomdownunder]

Good effort, that pizza looked fantastic after a hard run

[@CLFurlong]

Thank you 😋 the pizza was SO GOOD :) hope you are well and have been running too?

[@tobybeveridge6099]

Good stuff mate, I love the redwood forest. Been there a few times as it’s only about an hour from me!

[@CLFurlong]

Thanks Toby! It was so lovely there! Oh nice! Not too far at all! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@TheFitrush]

Wow wonderful to see an actual run taking place as opposed to the virtual runs happening. By the way I dropped a new video after a long time

[@CLFurlong]

Yea, it has been a long time coming, but finally it is so good to be out and about just having some fun with the community. :)

[@WVRunningDon]

Good run guys!!!

[@CLFurlong]

Thank you ✌🏼✌🏼

[@JessKaplan]

Wow it’s so pretty!! I cannot run down hill, I would be screwed haha!

[@JessKaplan]

Karla is so cute!! It must be so fun to have each other and all that good energy!!

[@JessKaplan]

Nice job!!! 🎉

[@CLFurlong]

Thanks Jess! Running down hill really is a challenge - also depends on the surface type too! Yea she really does keep me sane 🥰 Thanks Jess! Appreciate the comments and support ✌🏼✌🏼

[@MilesBe]

This makes me want to do some trail races. I have never done one yet. I might get lost though haha. Righ now I am just focusing on Boston.

[@CLFurlong]

It’s so beautiful bro; however training for Boston - I would not suggest trails! However your amazing hikes you do could be “trails” so you are already close to dabbling in the trails! Usually they marked really well - some trails no... hahaha 😅 Thanks bud!

[@MilesBe]

@@CLFurlong I've been lost in road races before so if it's not marked I for sure will get lost hahaha

[@CLFurlong]

Oh goodness hahah 😅😅😅

[@RUmlas]

Any recommendations for hydration bags? I know Nathan and Salomon have their pros and cons. I've got my typical 4 bottle water belt but wondering if I should make the move to the bags. No bladder but just the exo bottles. Congrats on finishing the race. Looked tight on some of the parts of the race.

[@CLFurlong]

Thanks champ! It really was a fun run! And tight yes! So for hydration bags... I personally use: Inov8 Race Ultra 10 Running Pack:kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXjco6uegrySZsU i use the bag and also the Fitletic belt when running trails: www.fitletic.com/product/hydra-16-hydration-belt/

[@TheFitrush]

Watch out for this barbed wires

[@CLFurlong]

the hill was brutal... as if you feel like losing balance, you cannot grab the fence next to you! LOL

[@TheFitrush]
