A runner starts in Irvine with just water and ends up covering 38 miles across beaches, cliffs, and the Pacific Coast Highway. They climb fences, use ropes to cross rocks, and fuel on coconut water and a Kind bar. In one day they run 33 miles, triple their usual weekly distance.
I just had to use a rope to get across. I'm gonna go back. No go. Good morning! Going on a little adventure run today. Not sure where I'm gonna go or how far, but bringing a pack of water and leaving my house right now in Irvine. So let's see where we end up.
Where you gonna run to, Cinnamon? Where you gonna run to? Where you gonna run to? All on that day, will I run to the rock? Please hide me and run to the rock. Please hide me and run to the rock. Please hide me, Lord, all on that day. But the rock cried out, I can't hide you. The rock cried out, I can't hide you.
Nothing like some fence climbing. 15 miles into your run. Ow! Made it to the ocean! Awesome! Thank you very much. You're welcome. Nice little beach run. I'm on some kind of private beach but have no clue. Don't know where this is going to end and if I have to to go back or not, but we'll see. Hmm, might be a bit stuck here. That's where I gotta go, or I gotta go a mile back over the rocks. See how this is gonna go. Nope, not going to do it. This is too freaking sketchy. I just had to use a rope to get across. I think I found a new route lower down, and that's where I got to go. Ha! Made it! That was sketchy. Pacific Coast Highway. Running away from the ocean up the hill. Coconut water, Kind Bar. Ready to go. Crack cocaine straight to the brain. Feels good. Legs have some energy again. Ah, my legs are not really working anymore. It's only like 28 miles in. Still got like 10 miles to go. All right, taking a little walk break here. Whenever I'm struggling, just trying to take in a few deep breaths, Wim Hof style, and you're good to go again. Don't forget to smile too. My weekly mileage has only been 20 20 to 30 miles a week, and I'm currently at 33 miles in. More than my weekly mileage at once. So one foot in front of the other, inspired by Pete Kostelnik. All right, made it. I saw everything from the mountains to the streets to the beach. So that was a nice 38-miler. Definitely a bit longer than expected, but a fun random adventure run. All right, you guys, uh, have a good one. Later.
