š„ Jamil Coury vs. Kevin Russ ā The Battle for Local Legend! š„In this episode, I catch up with Jamil Coury and Kevin Russāwhile theyāre literally running back and forth on a 0.22-mile Chipotle Strava segment in Tempe, Arizona! These two endurance athletes have taken on the wildest challenge in sports right now: logging the most segments in January to win free Chipotle for a year. ššÆJamil, the founder of Aravaipa Running, and Kevin, a thru-hiker, ultra-endurance athlete, and videographer, are putting in insane mileageāthink 70-mile days on the same stretch of pavementāas they battle for the title. I interviewed them remotely while they were mid-run, giving you a raw, live look into their mental and physical grind.š Whatās in this episode?āļø The Chipotle Local Legend challenge explainedāļø Jamilās daily grind of running + working + parentingāļø Kevinās crazy 261-mile week and strategy to stay aheadāļø The friendly but fierce rivalry between these two ultra competitorsāļø Jamilās truck getting towed (sacrifices must be made!)āļø Their content battleāwhoās winning the YouTube war?āļø Strategies for the final day and whether a tie is possibleš² Follow Jamil & Kevinās journey:Jamil Coury: Ā @runsteepgethighĀ Kevin Russ: https://www.instagram.com/kevinruss/š„ Support the Show!Join me on Patreon for exclusive content: patreon.com/freeoutsideCheck out my YouTube for quick-hitter training & FKT updates:Ā @FreeOutsideĀ š Shoutout to Janji!Use Janji Vortex Gloves and beanies to survive winter runningSubscribe to Substack: http://freeoutside.substack.comChapterskeywords: Chipotle challenge, running rivalry, Jamil Coury, Kevin Russ, ultra running, local legend, Strava, endurance sports, competition, content creation
