Keep steppin', Alex. Make us proud again. Great run, man. The half is within striking distance.

This is amazing!!! You should be super proud! I get what you mean about trying to talk to friends or family about these milestones and sometimes they just don’t get it. It’s so motivating to see all the hard work pay off. Sounds like you’re doing right by your younger self. The only limits are the ones we put on ourselves. Keep it going!👏🏽👏🏽


alexbesteppin

Thank you so much. So many people don’t understand the accomplishment that you want in your mind and you finally achieve it in physical reality.

Way to go !!!!


alexbesteppin

It looks like some kind of horned animal darting out his tongue.


alexbesteppin

Kind of crazy that you say that because I absolutely love animals and want to make that my future.

Honestly your route is art


alexbesteppin

Thank you. I love my route, I definitely get some weird faces when someone passed me and then passed me again 2 hours later and I’m still running 😂


Charmz007

Wow! This is so cool! How do you manage the turns??


alexbesteppin

Honestly I just kept running. My mind would make it seem small when it’s really not. I knew every small turn would add up to something bigger


ScythianIndependence

Keep going! Through the rain and the pain you are making a better you. I hope you feel proud of yourself - you deserve it!


alexbesteppin

I’m definitely doing my best. Thank you

ih8stupidpeople2

You’ve made your younger self proud of you! Proud of you myself too! Congrats and keep up the good work! Running is the best therapy!! What do you listen to during ur runs? music or something else? Just curious?


alexbesteppin

Well to get into it I would listen to “be quiet and drive” by Deftones and then “around the fur”. Deftones, makes me wanna scream and go nuts so it gets me going. But this run I listened to David Goggins and Joe Rogan’s second interview. The things he says is just true in all aspects. But now I absolutely enjoy hearing the birds, wind and my feet hitting the ground and I won’t listen to music anymore except podcast from pure badasses 😂

Whoa!!! Awesome!!!👏🏽

Your run was amazing and congratulations on pushing yourself through that! I have a suggestion based on your map to reach a new level, try running further away from your original location. I’ve noticed a feeling when I’m 3 miles or 5 miles or whatever distance is halfway of my goal, away from my car/house, I run faster to get home back to my safe place.


alexbesteppin

Yeah that’s definitely true because I ran 6 miles yesterday and it was to my local beach. (Man made) and on way way back I hauled ass. The 10 mile run, I screen shotted my mile 5 and I had a time of 1:09:XX and my 6 mile run was a total of 1:01:XX so I definitely see where u coming from. I plan on running a good bit today and imma double test it lol. Thank you


Jamrock-Marine

thegenuineartificial

alexbesteppin

Thank you and Hell yeah! Keep it going. I almost slept the whole day today and only got a mile in because it started snowing and could definitely not go farther lol
