Bucket list type shit. I’ve yet to meet anyone on or off ‘the way’ that has only done one camino with no desire for more…it is so incredibly rewarding. I didn’t cry when i finished cause i’m a baaaad man…but i did tear up watching other people finish cause i’m really just a softy. One of the most beautiful adventures i’ve ever experienced.
The Camino de Santiago, or the Way of St. James, is an ancient pilgrimage trail originating in medieval times. Made up of a vast network of roads and paths, pilgrims travel to arrive at the cathedral of Santiago de Compostela (GALICIA).
RELIGIOUS BELIEFS ARE NOT REQUIRED…but it can be fun to pretend you are religious and indulge in the beautiful madness 🤣🤣🤣🤣.

shit is stupid ill…so begins my trail running/mountain racing era.
@la.kets , my ninja assassin…a stone cold killer. A week after we both ran Run Woodstock with @xcrossinglinesx I wanted to get fat and drink cava, but she said nah fatty…we signing up for a mountain race…MUNTANYES DE PRADES (a couple hours outside Barna)…a 50k get down with 2,600 m+ of elevation. I thought she was playin’ but she was dead serious. As fate would have it she got into an accident on a bike 2 weeks out and couldn’t train. Days before the race she was almost certain she wasn’t gonna be able to lace em up. I told her she had to and like a soldier she did…ignored the pain fucked around and finished in the top 10 women for her age category. Natural born killa.
Lucky for me at every point in my running journey i’ve had dope muthafukkas (PDRR / White Orchids) that I was able to follow to things I never thought possible. After getting to Spain I thought that sexy running meddy was dead!!! Luckily I have Killa Ketty to follow into the mountains looking for GOD and running from the DEVIL. WE just gettin’ warmed up baby.
TEAM DEATH KILL LIVES!!!!

jheeeeeez!!!!!! back to the Pyrenees for round 2 baby…minus the snow and gale force winds.
the ninja assassin (@la.kets ) and me planned to hike up and run down…🤣🤣🤣. we clearly forgot where the hell we was going and who the hell we are 🤣🤣🤣. we could barely run any section for more than 100 metres. that was the maaadest and most technical terrain i’ve ever experienced. 🥰🥰🥰. luckily we had poles!!! after seeing @birdamyflying gracefully rocking poles at #runwoodstock i had to get on her level. made all the difference in the world. i love me some poles. 🫶🏾. this was definitely a brilliant training run and the assassin and i feel good about Novembers upcoming ultra (👀👀👀). @xcrossinglinesx truly got me stuck on trails right now. life is good.

ELMER (@elmssscabs )!!!! Mi hermano!! Much love to every CL runner…we love y’all like cooked food. But I gotta give my mans a special shout out. This is for everyone that thinks Ultra trail running is too gnarly or beyond their capabilities for one reason or another….kill that noise.
Before taking all of a couple of minutes to convince this man to sign up and train to run 50km in the woods and in another country…he had never even run a 5km. Never wanted to, and never considered it. But somehow he beasted the challenge…50km! FIRST RACE! Not to say it wasn’t without obstacles, but he committed and fought through that shit. When I knew he finished I was happier than my moms singing bible hymns. A day after the dust settled and we were chatting in Detroit… @la.kets asked him jokingly…’why did you even decide to do this…you’re nuts.’ To that my man answered because ‘you guys believed i could.’ That shit choked me all the way up…I kept it G tho. hahahahah. But seriously that’s the power of running together…a group running toward a common goal…holding each other down and lifting each other up. I’m happier for this man than I would have been for myself had I won the damn race. Thank you Elmer. Thank you for being you. Thank you for trusting us and Coach Nina. Thank you for never backing down. Salute to you champ. From here it’s only gonna get wilder. VAMOS HERMANO!!!!

What. A. Weekend. Our hearts are truly overflowing after soaking up so much awesomeness. To merely call the weekend a success wouldn’t do justice to what transpired. Thank y’all, so very much for the time and energy y’all put in to the training cycle and the trust you put in us by believing in the vision. Obviously the action was off the charts (which we’ll share more of real soon), but this was always more about a collective of dope folks coming together than it was about any one persons race results. We couldn’t have asked for more. Like how special it is that y’all came from Toronto, Vancouver, New York, New Orleans, Seattle, Barcelona…to form like Voltron and hold each other down. Such a gorgeous thing to be a part of. With our whole hearts we want to thank every last person that was a part of this journey. Y’all even got Meddy, to privately, tear up because he was so moved. We’ll be sharing more magic from the weekend in the coming days but we just wanted to take this time to express our appreciation and love for everyone that was apart of our family get down. Much more to come.
PEACE & LOVE
