Woke up early to run trails with Alex. We spoke about space-time, growing up, and Tom Delonge. Read on below to hear his thoughts on trail running, and as always you can find the Strava route here.

I love the primitive nature of running. It’s something humans have been doing for tens of thousands of years. Trail running taps me into this ancestral connection more often than anything else in my life.
I feel like I need to remind myself that I’m an animal and I’m a part of a long lineage of physical beings.
The trail is where I allow myself to be a primate, an animal, a human being climbing a mountain. - Alex
