matt wallace is a hottie!
and awesome video editing.
but there's these black squares that show up on the screen that just need to go. haha.
you wake up in jeans??? and do a long run everyday... or just when hungover. So many questions... such is life
most of the movie was really good. the team conversations though, were just stupid.
But the Goucher sex convo is awesome.
The video that was filmed in Kenya had a much deeper storyline. Also, it didn't rely on immature, poorly executed jokes to be entertaining.
yes, the person below is pathetic for plugging that terribly boring kenya video (and having the nerve to post two comments back to back - what a moron!) and then trashing this video for his own gain, but this naked run video is not the best video on the site
I agree the running needs to be serious but it should also be fun. These runners and editor(s) having nothing but respect for the sport and it shows through the hours that they have put in this film along with the others in the competition. For a successful team, they need three factors which are tradition, dedication, and humor. Humor goes a looonnnng way in this sport. This video is a great candidate for this competition and being a representative of young america, i'm sure everyone has seen worse on spongebob squarepants!
You had me on you guys all being nude up until you f*cked up one of the black boxes and showed one of the guys as having a speedo on.
that was scripted and still terrible. Are you guys really that ignorant on altitude running? Are you really that unfunny?
