That's Anton Krupika, elite ultra runner. He lives in Colorado and runs everyday in the mountains. And he gets to hang out with Scott Jurek, another ultra runner.
I used to be jealous of the sense of life and beauty that people like him got to experience every day because they lived in the mountains. I live in ugly Houston where the main feature of the landscape is distillation columns, a huge forest of them.
Today, I was sitting in my office at the chemical plant and looking out the window at some equipment and I thought, "You could feel that aliveness right now. Just feel it."
Wow, you mean the sense of joy/happiness/aliveness has nothing to do with the world? Yup. Just feel it now.
I have on a new pair of shoes and my feet don't hurt. After a nap, it is time for miles.
